Age Six

"I hate you." You snap Tony when he takes your toy.
"I hate you more." He glares.
"Be nice." Both of your mothers say simultaneously.

Age Thirteen

"Do you not realize how stupid this is?" You demand.
Tony sits on a motorcycle on the edge of a building, preparing to ride the perimeter. "I do."
"I hate you."
"That makes two of us. Get out of the way, Y/N."

Age Sixteen

You sit down in front of Tony at a dinner table. "I'm only here because my dad made me." You say with a bright smile, because you know your parents have people watching.
"As am I." He gives you the same fake smile.
"I hate you." You remind him.
"I hate you too. Wanna get ice cream after this?"
"It's December."
"Your point?"
"True."

Age Eighteen

You get a phone call from a random number. Usually you don't pick those up, but this time you do, for some reason.
"Y/F/N Y/L/N?" A man says.
"This is she."
"You're the only number listed in Tony Stark's phone."
That would be because you're the only person whose number he never cared to remember. "What's he done now?"
"He's in the hospital."
"I'm sorry, he's where?" You demand, standing and grabbing your car keys.
"In the hospital."
"What's he done?"
"I believe he's OD'd. I'm not sure. I just make phone calls."
"He what?"
"Do you have somebody to call for him?"
"Yes. I'm coming."
You call Maria on the way.
"Where the fuck is Tony Stark?" You demand of the woman at the front desk.
Eyes wide, she stammers out a room number.
"Excuse me, ma'am. Only family's allowed--" A lady on the floor the elevator lets you off at begins.
You shoot her an angry look.
"We have to ask the patients' permission--"
Your glare becomes fiercer and she looks away and gestures for you to go.
You open the door. "Tony." You say when you see him standing at the window.
"You don't have to pretend to care. You're my fake girlfriend only when our parents are around." He says flatly.
"I hate you." You tell him. "I really fucking hate you."
"Joke's on you. I hate me more. When can I get out of here?"
You throw your arms around him.
"I hate you." He tells you.
"I hate you too."

Age Twenty-One

"Howard and Maria died." Your father says.
"What?"
"They were in a car accident. Do you want to go see Tony?"
"Yes." You say, and run out before they can say anything else.
You get to Tony's house just as he's walking out the door. "Tony--" You begin.
"I hate you." He says.
"I hate you more. Where are you going?" You grab his hand as he starts to leave.
"My mom--My parents were in a car accident. I'm going there."
"Why?"
"I have to--I have to identify--"
"Okay. I'll come."
He starts to get in the driver's seat, but you stop him. "Let me drive." You say.
He nods and goes around.
He stares out the window. Neither of you speak a word because, of course, you hate each other.
"I'll still be your fake boyfriend--You know, to please your parents." He says.
"Even though you hate me?"
"Yeah."
You reach over and grab his hand.
You stand silently beside him as he talks with multiple policemen. You allow his arm to slide around your waist as he looks at the smashed car and the bodies of his parents.
"He was probably drunk." Tony says bitterly as you're driving him home.
"What?"
"My father."
"Your father--"
"Don't defend him, Y/N."
"Do you want to come inside?" Tony asks when you get to his house.
"Sure."
"I'm home, Jarvis. Y/N's here." Tony calls when you walk in.
"Are you all right, sir?" Jarvis asks, coming in.
"Yeah." He says, and walks out.
"Are you all right?" You ask Jarvis.
"Yes ma'am."
You follow Tony into his bedroom. He's sitting on his bed.
"I hate you." He whispers as he begins to cry.
"I hate you too." You say as you sit beside him.

Age Twenty-Three

You stand in Tony's kitchen after Jarvis' funeral.
"Leave me alone. Get the hell out of my house." He demands, his face still streaked with tears.
He may not be crying anymore, but you are. "No. I'm not leaving just because you're an asshole! That's nothing new!"
"I love you!" He yells back, pressing his lips onto yours.
You fold easily into his arms. "I love you too."
