Pepper felt awful and it was the first time she'd actually felt awful for expecting the worst from Tony. Okay, well, maybe the second. Although the stripper incident left her feeling more angry than anything else. What in the world had Tony done to her? She was actually starting to have feelings and maybe it was time to finally admit it.
Pepper took in a deep breath and then closed the distance between the two of them. She took Tony's hand in her own and had a hard time looking him in the eye.
"Tony...." she started. Oh god. She didn't even know how to say this. What was wrong with her?
"I think I might.. possibly... maybe have.. you know? Feelings for you," she said and then finally looked up to see Tony's reaction.
