Kennedy's POV

After that things start to go a lot smoother, I move into my new room, which turns out to be right across the hall from Peter's room. And pretty much every day is spent sitting in my room watching TV or reading, Peter comes and hangs out with me when he's around, sometimes he brings me new books he thinks I'll like. Also Pepper and Tony alternate bringing me food, other than than that I don't really see anyone, but at least my room has a window unlike the S.H.I.E.L.D. cell. I am pretty content, if a little bored, with this new life, and just when I start to get used to it everything starts to change again. It's a sunday afternoon, I'm laying on my back about to finish the second hunger games book, when tony bursts into the room. He seems distressed as he looks around for me, I sit up wondering what's going on, He tries to act composed as he walks up to me and says,

"Hey kid, I was wondering if you wanted to have dinner with Pepper and I tonight." At first my heart jumps at the thought of having dinner with Tony Stark, but then I look at him suspiciously, I'm not buying it.

"What's the catch?" I ask, raising an eyebrow.

"Alright, here's the deal, I have a distant relative who was my parents choice for legal guardian of me if they died. Even though I was already 18 when they died she likes to pretend she cares about me by checking up on me every on me every once in awhile," He pauses to make sure I'm following, I nod for him to continue, "Well she has decided to pay me a visit and I might have kinda told her a few months ago that I had a kid just to get her off my case, so. . ." He stops, I just stare at him pretending I don't get the point, "Look I'm desperate, if she finds out that I lied to her I will never hear the end of it, so please will you just. . . pretend to be my daughter while she's here?" I tap my finger on my chin in over exaggerated thinking as he watches me intently for an answer.

"Okay, I'll help you," I notice his whole body relax at my words, "Besides, having dinner with Tony Stark is pretty much top of my bucket list." He smiles at the comment, obviously relieved that I agreed.

"Thanks you, just stay up here till I call you, and hopefully she'll only be here a couple of hours." He leaves and I freak out for a while at the prospect of what's to come, before returning to my book. An hour later I hear F.R.I.D.A.Y.s voice from the ceiling.

"Miss Kennedy, Mr. Stark would like you to come to the dining room." Show time. I nervously make my way to the elevator and try to remember which floor Peter told me was Tony's, I make my best guess and the elevator starts moving. I have no idea how to act this part, so I really hope Tony does most of the talking. I reach the floor I picked and it turns out to be correct. The first thing I see is the three adults talking in the lounge area, and I half rin over to them.

"Ah, here she is," Tony announces, standing up and putting a hand on my back to bring me forward for the woman to see, "This is our daughter Kennedy, Kennedy this is my aunt Madison." Aunt Madison puts her hands on both my shoulders.

"It's so good to finally meet you." Before I can respond she pulls me into a quick hug, then goes on talking. "Its so nice that you finally have a child of your own Anthony, even if she's not biological." Tony laughs and puts his arm around me.

"Yeah, we just thought adoption was the way to go." He is acting so natural it's almost creepy, I smile and ry to seem natural, but I can't tell if I'm cutting it.

"It's quite the coincidence that her hair is just the same color as yours Pepper, she almost could be biological, did you do that on purpose?" she asks.

"Oh no, that was completely coincidental." Pepper responds, touching my hair as if to reference it. Seriously this is getting strange. Then Pepper states that she will go finish dinner. She asks me to help her, I pretend to complain, and she pretends to rebuke me, I thought that was a nice touch on my. The two of us retreat to the kitchen and leave Tony to talk to aunt Madison.

"This is weird." I state as I take the plates Pepper hands me.

"No kiddin, I'm surprised it's going this well." She agrees. We start setting the table as we talk quietly.

"I thought you would have been opposed to this plan of lying about me."

"Usually I would be, but when it comes to aunt Madison, i'll let it slide."

"What are you guys gonna do when she comes to visit again and I'm gone?"

"You know what, I don't know, Tony will probably get in trouble." When we finish setting the table Pepper asks me to call the other two for dinner, so I stick my head around the corner and shout.

"Dad, dinner's ready!" That felt strange. Tony and aunt Madison come into the dining room and the four of us sit down to eat. The meal consists of lasagna, garlic bread and cauliflower, and everyone seems to be enjoying it, until aunt Madison starts talking again.

"So Kennedy, how do you like living here?" She asks, I start to panic, I was hoping she wouldn't ask me any questions, I guess I will have to do some improv.

"It's pretty cool, not where I thought i'd end up." Well that's true enough, hopefully it continues to go this well.

"Of course, and how do you like your school?"

"It's fine I guess."

"What do you do for fun?"

"I like going to the mall with my friends.: That's what normal teenage girls do right? I think I'm getting the hang of this. Aunt Madison keeps asking questions about my life and I keep making up answers. After dinner and dessert are over, aunt Madison finally announces that it's time for her to go. She gives me a hug and takes a selfie of us before picking up her purse and leaving. I let out a sigh as soon as she's gone.

"Phew, I'm glad thats over." I confess as I start to help Pepper clear the table.

"You surprised me, you're quite the actress." Tony comments as he pours himself another glass of wine. He stares at me for a second before asking, "Why do you wear this hat all the time?" and plucks it off my head as I walk by.

"Hey, give it back!" I try to grab it but Tony pulls it away, turning it over and examining it. "Quit it! Don't touch my hat! I scream. Tony glances at Pepper , then hands my hat back to me, I quickly snatch it and put it back on my head.

"Calm down Firecracker It's just a hat." He says, trying to blow it off as a joke, I turn and stark walking away.

"Whatever, I'm going to my room." I slowly make my way back up to my floor and into my room, I'm not really mad at Tony, I know he was just messing around, I just get sensitive about my hat. I sit down on my bed, sad memories start flooding into my head, I lose track of time as I sit thinking and crying. Eventually I run out of tears and just lay down to stare into space, then I hear a knock at the door, I ignore itm Not wanting to talk to anyone, but the knock comes again.

"Come in." I say, sitting up to see who it is. Peter walks in with his camera around his neck.

"Hey Kennedy, you gotta see. . . what's wrong?" His expression changed from excitement to concern when he see's my puffy red eyes.

"It's stupid, I can't believe I got so upset about something so silly." Peter sits down next to me on the bed.

"What happened?"

"Tony stole my hat, and I kinda freaked out at him." I explain, Peter looks confused.

"Must be a pretty special hat to get you so worked up."

My dad gave it to me the day before he. . . before the accident." I look down at my hands, but I can feel Peter's sympathetic eyes on me.

"Oh, I'm sorry." I give him a sad smile.

"Everybody is, but it doesn't make it easier." The two of us sit for a minute in awkward silence before I finally break it by saying, "Anyway, what did you wanna show me?" Peter pulls up his camera and shows me some cool shots he got of the city, the mood lightens a bit after that and we end up having a pretty good time the rest of the evening.
