Okay, so this is my Tony/OOC story. Don't get me wrong but I'm full on Pepperony just this idea has been in my head for quite some time. So I'm not sure how old Tony is supposed to be in the movies but in this story he's 30 and Emmy is 26.
Tony sat in his office at his desk. He hated his office, made him feel like he was his father. He felt more comfortable in his lab, at his house, away from the company. But he had to be there. He needed a personal assistant and fast. He sighed as he put his feet up on his desk and leaned back but ended up jerking forward at the sound of knocks rapping on his door.
He sat up quickly as he straightened out his tie and suit jacket before calling out to let the person come in. He had so many woman come in and out. Granted they were all attractive but had no real experience, no real college degree. He was getting restless, he had been there for almost hours and had yet to find anyone to be his right hand gal.
He was about to give up when a girl came bursting in almost out of breath. She was wearing a navy blue pencil skirt with a red silk top. Her hair was up in a messy bun as curls hung out in different places. Tony took note of this. He was admiring her curls, and the beautiful chocolate brown color of her hair. He also noted that she was tall, about 5'9" without her three inch heels and that she had an athletic frame. She flashed him a big smile as she put her things down next to the chair .
He felt his breath catch in his throat at the smile she flashed him. She had such a warm, innocent, and beautiful smile that he couldn't help but smile back. Her olive tone skin and her hazel eyes made him smile even more. As she stuck out her hand he grabbed it with vigour and firmly shook it.
"Mister Stark. I apologize for being so late. I'm not going to make any excuses. My name is Emmy Chandler. I don't have an appointment but everyone was alrea-
He held up a hand to stop her and smiled "It's okay, don't worry about it. Please" as he motioned to the chair.
She sat down, still smiling as she crossed her legs and folded her hands in her lap. "Thank you for seeing me as well."
"Don't worry about it, Miss Chandler. So what can you tell me about yourself?"
"Well...I come from a small town in Connecticut. I went to NYU for Communications. Graduated at the top of my class, I worked at Apple for a while as a secretary."
"And the reason why you left Apple?"
"I had a disagreement with the boss."
"And that was?"
"Well...apparently, speaking my mind and not sleeping with the boss was the wrong moves."
"H-What? He fired you on grounds for not sleeping with him?"
"No, he fired me on grounds of me being insubordinate. I was insubordinate a lot, he just didn't like my opinions when he asked for them. The whole sleeping with him thing he threw in later as I was trying to leave and he tried to get rough with me. So...I had to kick his ass. Pardon my language."
He couldn't believe what he just heard. She was fired from Apple, not because she was insubordinate, but because she wouldn't sleep with her boss. And she knew how to defend herself? He was liking her.
"Hey, no, more girl power to you for sticking to your guns. I like that. Listen, I need a personal assistant. I tend to call at all hours, I don't play well with others, I hate being handed things, I spend most of my time at home, in my lab. I'll basically need you 24/7/365. Are you okay with that?"
She gave him another smile, not as big as the first one but just as amazing "I'm perfectly okay with that. I don't have any family, and my friends are actually just one and she lives in England. So I'm more than okay with your requirements."
"Good, also, I can be narcissistic at all times and eccentric as well as very straight forward with everything. Also I do say inappropriate things and you're more than welcome to put me in my place verbally."
"Sounds good to me, Mister Stark."
"Tony, call me Tony, please. Mister Stark is my father, Miss Chandler."
She gave another smile "Okay, Tony. And same goes for you, Emmy. Not Miss Chandler."
Right away Tony stood up and began walking out, Emmy had to grab her things quickly to follow him. As they reached the elevator there was a man waiting for them.
"Emmy, this is Happy. Happy, my new PA Emmy."
"Nice to meet you ma'am."
"You too, and call me Emmy, please."
"Of course. The car is waiting downstairs." He walks into the waiting elevator with Tony close behind. Emmy followed and noted that if she had no heels on, they would be towering over her.
As the doors closed she held her hands in front of her. Trying to keep her mind busy all the while playing with the handle on her bag. She was tempted to look over her should at Tony or at Happy but resisted the urge. That was until she heard the clearing of the throat behind that she turned to Tony who was looking at her, and she couldn't figure out why.
"Yes, Mister Stark?" That's when she mental slapped herself, turning away and closing her eyes in frustration at herself.
"Tony, remember. Do you have a place to stay yet?"
'Crap' No, she hadn't. She was supposed to go look at a one bedroom apartment after the interview but completely forgot. "Um, no, Tony. I don't. I was supposed to go look at an apar-
"Perfect. There's a house about a mile from mine that I own. You can stay there, rent free. Consider it part of the work perks. You also get a company car, a laptop, a phone and credit card." The doors opened and he walked out past her causing her to follow next to him at a fast pace and happy on the other side "You'll also need to wear work attire clothes at all times when around me. Also JARVIS will need your DNA in the system, you also need a passcode for my house."
"Okay"
He stopped and looked at her, carefully observing her expression which showed that she was relaxed "Alright. You start officially tomorrow. Today, you get settled in" Happy was holding the door open to the car as Tony looked at her "Get in."
She smiled at Happy then at Tony as she climbed inside, carefully making sure her skirt didn't ride up in the back. As she got settled, Tony climbed in after her and Happy got into the front. She looked around, expecting it to be decked out but it wasn't. It was relatively normal. She looked over at Tony who was on his phone doing who knows what.
She then turned her attention out the window. She was actually in Malibu, California. She could see a beautiful ocean, something she didn't have back home, the water wasn't as beautiful. She could see roads that went on and on. And all that sand, it made her want to go run in it. Her attention was snapped back to reality as they pulled up to this amazing looking house. All glass except for some areas that needed wall structures. But it was beautiful. 'This is where he lives?' She thought to herself as the car stopped. She turned to Tony who just got out of the car as the door was held open for him. Happy peering in.
"Are you coming out Miss Chandler?"
She smiled and again Tony felt his breath hitch. She climbed out of the car and looked at Happy "Thank you, and remember, Emmy."
"Yes, sorry."
As she followed them in she knew her jaw was hanging open but quite honestly she didn't care. Although as soon as she entered she heard a loud beeping a voice telling her she wasn't authorized to be there.
"JARVIS, it's okay. She's my new PA."
"So sorry, sir."
"It's okay." Tony turned to Emmy. "You need to put your hand on that pad, and then type in your personal four digit Identification Number."
Emmy just looked around for a bit before seeing the pad on the wall that she swore wasn't there before. As she placed her hand upon it, she felt it scan, and then prick her causing her to hiss a bit, then she entered in her four digit number like Tony had told her to.
"Analysis completed, security information uploaded. Miss Chandler is now in my database as well as her personal history."
"Thank you, JARVIS"
Emmy had to shake her head briefly before speaking "Hang on. The house talks? It literally talks like a person."
Tony furrowed his brow as he looked at her, almost confused as to why she was asking the question "Yes, he's an Artificial Intelligence system."
"That is...amazing. So he's like Haley Joel Osment in A.I. except...computer form."
"Haley Jo-who?"
Emmy shook her head as she looked around "He's an actor. JARVIS?"
"Yes, Miss Chandler?"
"What are your capabilities?"
"Anything from speech to surveillance to medical to personal adaptation."
"That is wicked." She couldn't help but smile even more as she looked around.
Tony watched her with amazement. He had never seen anyone so intrigued with Jarvis before. He cleared his throat as he walked farther into the house.
"Over there is the kitchen, straight ahead, as you can see is the living room. The stairs to your left that lead downstairs is my work shop. The stair that lead upstairs is where I sleep and there are multiple bedrooms and bathrooms as well. Through the kitchen is another bathroom, a guest bedroom, a workout room with a boxing ring, sauna. And down the hall from that is the pool." He turned and looked at her. "Any questions?"
Emmy had been looking around, trying to remember where everything was and such. This house was a lot bigger than any house she had ever seen. She felt like she was in a fantasy home. She looked at Tony and smiled "No, not really. Just when would you like me to start? I have to find a place to live."
"Nonsense. I own a house around the corner, literally. You will be living there, you get a company car. Expense account. Again, any questions?"
She couldn't help but smile and shake her head. "No, no, I think I'm good to go. I should go get settled in. Will that be all, Mr. Stark?"
Tony couldn't help but smile at her "Yes, that will be all Ms. Chandler."
