Her own life had been put on hold for him. It wasn't that she would trade a single day, she wouldn't have, but she had spent more than a decade caring for the man whose arms now encircled her. Years and years of worry and concern that didn't end with the birth of Iron Man, but in actuality it only increased. Pepper had never been more scared for him, than when he had faced down Loki and redirected that nuke, and she had been plenty scared for him in the past. But this time, she had almost lost him, again.<br/><br/>Even as she ran her hands over his body, she had noticed every change in muscle tone and structure, and while he was fit, he was also vulnerable too. There wasn't a man on this planet that could illicit as much emotion from her as Tony could. He turned her on, had made her angry, drove her crazy until she thought she would pull her hair out, but they were all the other truly had. He completed her and she knew he couldn't live without her anymore that she could will herself to stop loving him. Over the years, Pepper had watched him parade around with a myriad of other women, none of them had ever lasted more than a night or two, and in the end, she had been the only woman he had ever come home to. Now they were finally together and it had all been worth it.<br/><br/>As his fingers stole up the back of his shirt, he found the soft bare skin reacting beneath his caress. She arched towards him, as tiny goose bumps teased under his fingers and he was rewarded with another soft moan that reverberated against his lips. Pepper loved the way he touched her, it was if every time he did, he was carefully unwrapping a gift he didn't want to accidentally break, couldn't wait to unveil, and held on to possessively. It had been like that from the first time they had kissed, made love, and it hadn't changed. <br/><br/>When his lips claimed hers, he felt a shiver ran through her body, a small frisson of energy that seemed to light up her skin, her soul. She felt every nerve, almost hyper-aware of everything around her, her own heartbeat, the aura of love and desire, passion and excitement emanating from Tony that matched her own, the beginnings of a faint, warm pulse between her legs at what was happening between them.<br/><br/>Passion built up between them sexually, as it did in all other areas of their lives, like tiny little storms, that always threatened to turn into a full blown category level hurricane, in danger of destroying anything its path. But always, in the center of that storm, there was a calm, a tenderness that couldn't be felt anywhere else but with the other. Such as it was now, the calm before the storm.<br/><br/>His lips tasted sweet and she parted her lips slightly, to share a warm breath with him, all the while allowing herself to taste him, to be filled by his essence. The kiss remained light, sweet, almost innocent. They were joined only by the softest brush of lips, a tickling of his goatee, and a light scrape of fingernails to his cheek. And she knew that despite how desperately they may have wanted to delve, deepen, seek, she couldn't deny herself a moment to enjoy the sweetness of this simple, innocent pleasurable kiss.<br/><br/>She let her hands roam over his bronzed skin and as her body came more alive, she closed her eyed for one brief second, reveling in every thought and feeling of and for him, and how he made her feel. Pepper felt like her heart would explode in her chest, his shirt off, she could feel the heat coming off his skin, enveloping her senses and taking her breath away. She could smell the very essence of him, an earthy, musky scent that was so male, so him and the taste of his tongue, his lips brought about immediate pleasure and notable reactions to her body.</span></span></div>
