Most of the people think that whoever is Tony Stark's daughter is the luckiest person in the world.

And you can assure that they're damn right!

   First of all, you're surrounded by awesome people. They're awesome. You're awesome. Everyone is awesome under this roof, also their stomach are always full with your delicious food that even though time passed and things changed, you're still the cook of the house.

   Second of all, you're too smart. That, you got from your father, who's a genius, billionaire, loyal (Not playboy anymore, Pepper doesn't allow that), philanthropist.

   Third of all, your boyfriend also loves potato.

"Dad. I wanna buy a potato factory."

You jumped across the sofa and sat next to Tony Stark, he was focusing on his holographic work in front of him, and you weren't sure he was paying full attention to you.

"Yeah? What kind of a potato?" He asked with his mouth left open, still didn't look at you. Too distracted by what he was doing.

   "All potatoes, I mean, chips, crackers, french fries. I wanna open the potato factory. Make it a hit, turn all people in New York into potatoes."

   "Sounds like the next super villain. Will 10 million dollars be enough?"

   "Jesus dad I know we're rich but I just want a small potato factory not buying every potato in the world-- wait a minute, that'd be nice though..."

   "Keep the change, then." He stood up and dragged his hands along the hologram, adjusting and programming his newest creation. "What do you think?" He showed you.

   "Nanotech? You're really working on that?" You stood beside him, reviewing his work.

   "Still not complete. There are some errors every time I try to print the model."

   "You're manipulating the matter on an atomic scale, just go for it and aim for supramolecular."

   "Shit's gonna explode."

   "You never know. You might as well try anyway dad. Trust me." You gave him a quick cheek kiss and walked out.

"Hold on, where you goin?"

"On a date!" You yelled back.

"With Peter?"

"With Happy I guess. Yes, with Peter, we never really had a proper date so why not?"

"Don't lose your virginity!"

You laughed, then whispered. "Are you sure I didn't already lose it..."

You smiled all the way to your room, putting on something nice and putting your super watch on your wrist. It's also adapted by the first model of his nanotech and can change its form, today, you turned it into a bracelet.

   On your way out, someone stopped you. It was Thor.

He smiled.

You signed.

"Thor I'm in a rush."

"I'm really hungry..." He sounded really hungry.

   "What about cheesecake in the fridge that I made for you yesterday?"

   "I already ate it." He gave you a wry smile.

   "Can't you just order pizza for today?"

   Thor kneeled down and hugged your right arm, laid his face on your shoulder. "No pizzas can compare your pancakes... By the way, I heard from Peter, your, what'd Bucky called it? Sugar baby--"

   "My boyfriend. Wait, Bucky really called him that? I bet Sam taught him..."

   "--Yeah, that, the same, I was saying that he loves larb, I've never had larb. Can you make larb for me?"

   "I don't have the ingredients, you're getting only pancakes today." You signed, then cooked at an incredible speed, served it to Thor and he was so happy.

   You left finally, and a lot of things changed over time. You can drive a car now. One day Tony Stark said you should stop being too extra that you travel by flying in your suit to everywhere and be normal for once, said he'd spend the week teaching you to drive.

Captain asked to join the class, sure, he drove before, but Tony's cars are a collection of buttons and weird texts and it took a while for him to adjust, to technology in general.

You borrowed your dad's car for now, of course he was dying to buy you one but you didn't think you'd be driving that much.

Except for today.

Today, you took the most expensive car from the garage ever to visit midtown high school, you parked in front of the gates, with sunglasses on then rolled the window down as Peter Parker walked towards you.

"(Y/n)." His face lightened up as soon as he saw you.

You lowered your sunglasses down and smiled at him, then Ned who waved at you with his cute chubby cheeks.

"You actually learned how to drive?" Peter asked, looking at the car that was in red.

"Yup." You nodded repeatedly. "Get your ass inside."

"Ass coming." He laughed.

   What a lovely day for the super-couple. It would be a damn shame if anything goes wrong.

"You guys have fun on the date!" Ned said.

"Thanks, you wanna come in for dinner next week? I might have a movie night with friends." Then you realized almost your friends are fake and just hanging out with you to get attention. "--With family." You changed.

"Sounds great." Ned nodded.

You noticed Flash walking out so you shouted. "Yo! Flash. Did you bully Peter today?!"

Flash panicked and stuttered. "Ugh, no, ma'am, I would never, again, no--"

   "Keep it that way!" You smirked as you drove off.

   On the road to the restaurant, Peter was looking at you, and smiled. "You're getting really good at this."

   "Driving?"

   "That, too, but mostly not being in your suit all the time."

   "..."

   "..." Peter's smile turned into a look of disappointment.

   "Ugh..."

   "You're wearing it?"

   He reached over and peeked inside your chest, you yelled and almost drove off the road.

   "You're wearing it!" Peter shouted.

   "You can't just look into my boobs without my permission!"

   "I wasn't looking for your boobs, you're wearing that!" He pointed at the reactor above your chest that you hid behind your turtleneck. "(Y/n), you promised me you'll wear your suit less."

   "I did. And I'm not wearing it, this is just the reactor, and it's not like the whole suit can come out of it soon since my father is still trying to figure nanotech out."

   "Why can't you just..." Peter waited three months to gain the confidence to say this.

"Chill..."

You parked the car right where you are so sudden, without seatbelts he would've floated off the window.

   "Chill?" You said.

   He grabbed your arm, begging you to listen. "I just feel like you don't trust me that I can take care of you, and that you are... furious all the time. (Y/n), bad guys won't just show up at your doorstep. Why can't you just relax while we don't have anyone to fight."

"Speak for yourself. You still jumped off the window at midnight and do your Spidey things all the time."

"That's my point. I do my part, you do yours."

"Make omelet for Thor?" You asked, then breathed in to calm yourself and replied in the softer tone. "There's nothing wrong with me being in the kitchen and in the iron armor at the same time."

"(Y/n) I found you pooping in the toilet wearing your armor."

"I'm testing new functions!"

"I just don't want you to be inside of that all the time. I turned around to kiss you and knock my teeth with an iron plate."

"Oh my god, don't tell me you're turning into my Pepper."

"You're wearing your super-glass and super-watch right now! I know that bracelet's your watch, you can't fool me."

"You are definitely turning into my Pepper. It makes sense, Peter, Pepper, Petter." You talked to yourself.

Petter signed.

The cars behind you were now honking for you to go but you and Peter just sat there staring outside each side of the mirrors.

"Are you gonna drive?" Peter asked finally.

You said nothing, avoid looking at him.

"Fine... (N/n). Please drive us there."

[ (N/n) = your AI assistant, if you still remember what you named her ]

The car shifted into an auto-drive and took you further to the restaurant. Peter put on a suit over his shirt quietly, he didn't know what you were thinking about behind that black sunglasses of yours.

He guessed you were angry, then that you were crying, and even worse you wanted to break up. When in truth you just wanted some potato to feel better.

"We're here." (N/n) said.

The car was quiet, so deadly quiet, when Peter sighed it seemed to be the loudest thing ever.

"(Y/n)... are we cool?"

"We're the coolest couple if you would just let me be the iron girl without any complaining."

"We are already the coolest couple, I don't see why you feel like hiding yourself behind your armor when I know you're worth looking with or without it..." He muttered, but it hit you like a truck.

"...I hate how I always give in to you eventually." You rolled your eyes sadly and dipped your hands in your shirt and pulled your reactor out, then you put it in Peter's hand. "That's gonna stop me from wearing my suit for the whole day, or as long as you're holding onto it."

Peter was stunned, then slowly smiled by how you actually listened to him at last.

You put your sunglasses away and looked into his eyes. Too angry to just say it, but there was always way to tell another someone you love them without the lame words I love you.

"You're my potato."

Peter smiled with his dimple.

"You're my potato, too."

And so you got out of the bulletproof car, the car that can protect you from any kind of explosion or deep ocean, exposed yourself without your armor like a peeled potato to the outside world.

And got shot in the chest by a sniper.

🥔 💧

I'll call you later.
