He'd realized during that near-perilous fall that he relied far too much on his suit and his mind. He had begun a daily workout regimen immediately, including weekly sparring bouts and lessons with Natasha in close-combat martial arts. Tony's quick mind picked it up fast. It was really just a matter of getting his body into practice and the shape to do it. <br/><br/>      As Pepper felt up Tony's shirt, she'd notice the pleasant surprise of a much more sculpted and firm body. It was nothing to rival that of 'perfect-soldier' Rodger's. And surely it didn't even come close to the body of a god in Thor or Loki; but it was a definite improvement, especially for a man on the wrong side of thirty. Tony never really payed attention to his age though - life was too short to worry about those things. Pepper was also nearly as old as Tony, but the thought never crossed his mind as his lips continued to explore her sensitive neck.<br/><br/>     He loved her fair and delicate skin, she was like a freshly bloomed flower - a far cry from the other women he had unfortunately been experienced with. Those times were long gone now though; Tony's love life was beginning to settle down. He had enough chaos in his life ever since he'd become Iron Man... he didn't need to pile on to that. He was content with Pepper -  more than content really. She had always been there for him, always ready and willing - from a professional and friendship standpoint. Feeling the touch of her body equally willing for him was something quite new, and quite exciting. <br/><br/>     Pepper's soft moans as he traced kisses down her neck began to get Tony's blood moving. Her fingers weaving through his hair only intensified the feeling. When she leaned down in to return kisses to his own neck, he carefully pulled her down onto the desk chair with him - so that she was straddling him. His hands then went up the back of her shirt, calloused palms brushing heavily across her back. With one arm wrapped around her lower back and the other up the middle of it to her neck he pulled her a littler lower, pressing his bearded lips against her own soft wet tiers.</span></span></div>
