She blinked when he ran his fingers through his hair and looked back at her. She looked over at the doves. And realized that they were with the mate. She smiled as she watched one dove nuzzle the other. She smiled. She gasped softly when he went on his knee.“Alice,” She heard him say softly towards her. Alice's breath hitched in her throat as he asked the four words she wished to hear. "Yes! Yes!" Alice gasped as she moved forward to his arms. She made sure that she was going down into his arms carefully. "Of course I would love to marry you!" Alice said with a beam on her face before leaning in to kiss him.

Tony never felt this nervous, excited, happy, and hyper in his whole entrie life. Never had he felt so alive when she said yes. The doves were beautiful, Tony’s hands grasped one gently and threw it into the air, watching it fly away with it’s mate beside it. Once he was on his knee, he waited for her answer. A grin broke across his face as he wrapped his arms around her,pulling her up with him. He bent his head down, locking her lips into a kiss. An arm around her waist and the other cupping her face as he kissed her. He broke the kiss, resting his forehead against hers, “I can hear women all around the world screaming and wishing they were you right now, Alice.”

Pepper and Jim watched with grins on their faces. Never had they expected to see Tony propose to a girl, but then again, they never expected Tony to have a girlfriend or a child on the way either. Alice beamed when she kissed him back. She wrapped her arm around his neck, and one hand on his cheek. A flash was around in the background, and Alice knew that someone took a photo of them kissing. Alice beamed as she looked at him in the eyes. His beautiful puppy dog, dark chocolate brown eyes. "What a coincidence, me too." She whispered softly, before pressing her lips against his again, feeling his hand putting the ring on her left finger. Alice pulled away to look down at it. It was simple. One diamond on a silver band. Perfect. She smiled and leaned up again to kiss him. "Guys, I'm glad for you and all, but you need to sit down so people can start their speeches." Alice blushed as she sat down next to Tony, holding her hand in his tightly and kept kissing his cheek repeatedly. She was only too happy to be his fiance and soon wife. Tony also was on the list for speeches. Most of the prominent celebrities were there, to give speeches for something. Most of them were just to talk about their life achievements and such. And thanking their loved ones and all. (the ring: whiteflashdiamonds.files.wordpress.com/2009/04/img_2391.jpg )

Tony shot Jim a question look, a look that asked if he had chosen a good way to propose. He wouldn’t dare give Pepper that look, she would talk to him afterwards about what she like and didn’t like. And by talk, Tont meant her talking non-stop to either him, Alice, or Jim. He smiled, kissing her back, niping at her bottom lip playfully. He grinned, not really caring that someone took a pictue. He chuckled, his thumb caressing her cheek slolwy before he placed the ring onto her finger. He ran a hand through his hair and kissed her again. He watched her look down at the ring, “Do you like it?” He whispered softly, staring at her. He chuckled as she kissed him, “I’ll take that as a yes.”
Tony’s cheek turned a very soft shade of red as the guy spoke to them, he slowly sat down; fully aware that everyone was staring at them with smiles on their faces. His thumb travled over the top of her palm as she kissed him over and over. The only bummer about this night-well it was a bummer but anyway—was that he had to leave his soon to be wife’s side and go make a speech. How could he do that if Alice was the only thing on his mind?

Jim gave Tony a grin and a thumbs up, meaning he liked the way that Tony proposed. Jim knew that Alice liked meaning behind the proposal. And the doves was a great way. Plus the ring, knowing that Alice liked simple and how she kissed him, Jim guessed that Tony didn't go overboard with the ring. Tony tended to Alice's wants in a proposal and he didn't disappoint. Pepper also was impressed that he proposed to her. Especially in public. It meant that he was ready to open up to the public and not show his enigmatic side, and was ready to show his, honest, trustworthy, one-woman, family man. Alice blushed when he nipped her bottom lip playfully. Gods, and what were they doing there? If they had this proposal at home, they would have already had sex because of the estatic feeling that they're feeling. Plus, sex is fine, they did clear that with Alice's doctor. Alice beamed when he cuppd her cheek and then asked if she liked the ring. She pulled back with a soft laugh. "Of course I do. It's perfect." Just sleek and simple. Just perfect. Alice was a simple girl afterall.
Alice knew that he was a bit embarrassed, but Alice was a lot more embarrassed than he. Her face lit up like a flame. She smiled as his thumb traveled over her hand as she kept kissing him, alternating between his lips and his cheek. "Well, this was such a surprise!" Heidi said with a smile towards the two. Alice giggled softly. "But a great one." Alice said as she looked over at Heidi with a smile. Anne Hathaway and her boyfriend Adam Shulman smiled at the two. There were introductions around. As well as Steve Carell with his wife Nancy introduced themselves and congratulated the couple.
An hour later, after dinner, and Alice was good and stayed away from anything harmful for her, and there was an aboundance of alcohol at the gala. She heard a few speeches that some people made. It seemed as though each celebrity was going to make a small speech, whether it be one sentence or a paragraph. Some funny, and some so heart-warming Alice was trying not to cry."And next up, Tony Stark!" The announcer said, as a spotlight hit Tony and a bit on Alice as the audience applauded. Alice turned to Tony and smiled, kissing his cheek and whispered, "You'll do great." She pulled away and smiled at him.

He looked over at his fiance whom was blushing as red as the American flag. He smiled lightly, chuckling as she continued to shower him with kisses. Tony turned to Heidi smiling, “That was the intention.” He briefly looked around the room beore, returning his gaze onto the beautiful woman who was to become his wife. He ran a hand through his hair as he took a sip of water out of a glass a waiter brought to the table. Tony conversed with Anne and her boyfriend once they came over. Steve Carell was as funny and happy as Tony had seen him in the Office. Tony also said he’d be sure to invite them, Anne and Adam, and Heidi and her husband to the wedding.
The dinner was excellent and even though he trusted Alice, he stilled eyed every drink she had. As the night proceeded on, all sorts of other celebrities came up to congradulate them on the baby and becoming engaged to each other. People began to settle as the announcer spoke, saying Johnny Depp would be giving the next speech. Tony grasped Alice’s hand in his as he stared at Mr. Depp. Tony barely heard the speeches until the announcer called his name. He kissed Alice’s cheek back and stood up, automatically, smiling at the crowd. He walked up to the podieum and began to talk about all the starving children over the world; even the ones that he saw while in Afgahnistan.
-------
Tony walked back to the table as the clapping reached his ears. A smile danced across his face as he did so. He merely nodding, being humble as possible. He sat back down next to Alice and taking a sip of his water before reaching for her hand.

Alice couldn't help but to shower him with kisses. She was too happy to be his fiance and soon wife. Heidi smiled. "I can see that." She said with a chuckle of her own and Seal just grinned. Alice was only too happy to be at this table, talking with Steve Carell and his wife and then in a four-way coversation involving the women at the table Pepper, Heidi, Anne, and Nancy about Alice's now up-coming wedding, where Alice wanted to have the wedding after the baby, since they needed time to plan it as well. Steve Carell and his wife, as well as Anne and Adam, and Heidi and Seal were surprised but happy to hear that they were invited to the wedding.
Alice's dinner of grilled chicken, cooked carrots, and sweet potato was excellent. Alice eyed Tony back when he was eyeing her when she drank her water. Jeez. Alice wasn't even the type to drink. If she was, she would have wine with dinner, but that was it. No hard liquor. Alice smiled and thanked everyone who came over to congratulate them. She smiled when he held her hand. She smiled as he got up and talked. -------
Alice smiled as she leaned in, kissing his cheek softly. "You were great." She said softly in his ear.
And as soon as the gala started, it was over. Alice sighed as she took off her heels in the limo as she rested her head on Tony's shoulder as the limo made its way back to their house. Alice took out her phone. "Gotta call my parents about the news." Alice said to Tony with a smile, as she leaned against him gently as she dialed her mother's home number. "Hello?" "Hi mom!" Alice said with a beam. "Why are you calling at 12:06am? Your father is asleep." Ramona asked over the phone. "I'm engaged. Tony proposed." Alice blurted out, making Ramona gasp over the phone. "Oh my word! Congratulations! We must catch up in the next few days so I can hear all about it!" Alice laughed softly. "Sure mom." Alice said with a smile. "I'll call you tomorrow Goodnight, and congratulations again Ali." Ramona said. Alice smiled. "Night mom. Thanks." Alice hung up the phone and sighed as she looked over at Tony and beamed up at him and kissed him on the mouth.

Tony grinned, “Thank you.” He nodded to her and kissed her back lightly as another celeb got up to talk.
Tony chuckled watching Alice remove her shoes, he shook his head. “Why do you guys do that?” He asked, nodding his head toward her bare feet and shoes. By ‘you guys’ he meant women in general. Tony nodded, “I figured. Don’t squeal too loud, I’m tired.” He smirked, leaning his head against hers. His eyes fluttered closed as Alice dailed her parent’s number in a heartbeat. He barely heard the words she spoke to her mother as he drifted into slumber. A state where he was awake and asleep at the same time, and he began to a dream a wonderful dream. A dream that contained Alice, him, and their daughter at the zoo. He smiled in his sleep before, his dream came to an abrupt end caused by Alice kissing him on the mouth. His eyes flew open as he kissed her back, pulling her close to him. He smiled lightly, “I love you.”

Alice looked over at her. She laughed softly. "We women wear shoes that hurt but look good, so in turn, we look good for our men and impress other women. And at the end of the day, when no other woman or man is watching except for the significant other, we relax by taking off our shoes." Alice beamed as she wiggled her painted red toes. "Sure sure sleepy." Alice said with a smile as she felt him lean his head against hers. He's so cute. She smiled as she hung up the phone and kissed him. Alice smiled as she wrapped her arms around his neck, playing with his hair at the nape of his neck. "I love you more." Alice said with a grin as the limo drove on towards the house.
Soon, Alice found herself getting out of the car, in one hand holding her shoes. The other hand held Tony's hand. She smiled looking down at her engagement ring. It really was beautiful. She sighed as they were let into their house and she made a beeline to the bedroom. She sat down at her vanity and took off her makeup with a makeup remover. "Honey?" Alice called to Tony. "Do you think you can unzip me now?" Alice turned her head over her shoulder and grinned cattily at him with a small wink.

Tony chuckled at her explaniation, deciding against aruging with how silly it was to wear shoes that look good and aren’t comfortable. He nodded, “What ever you say, dear.” He smiled down at her, laughing softly as she wiggled her painted toes at him. Women were such beguiling creatures. He simply couldn’t fully understand them but, he loved women; one in particular. Tony laughed softly, “It’s true, I am sleepy, giving a speech wears you out, you know.” He nodded, looking down at her, smiling lightly. His hand sought hers as he closed his eyes, yawning loudly. He opened them slowly, kissing her back. “Let me get some sleep, woman.” He chuckled, “I love you so much that it could be the Big Bang.” He chuckled at himself and his corny like expression.
Tony’s eyes fluttered open when the car slowly rolled to a stoping point in his garage. Heremoved himself from the car, follwing Alice toward the house. He smiled lightly, his eyes catching her staring and grinning down at the ring. Tony sighed softly, it was great to be home with the woman of his dreams. Tony chuckled at her, following her into their bedroom. He yawned softly, “Yes, I think I can.” He rans his fingers upwards on her back, slowly pulling the zip downward. He kissed her cheek softly as he continued to unzip her dress in a slow manner.

It was good that he didn't argue about it. Alice was a woman, and a somewhat emotional woman due to the high rise of hormones in her body. She smiled when he laughed softly. "Apparently they do. I wouldn't know because I never give speeches." Alice said with a grin, and stuck her tongue out at him sillily. Alice beamed. "You'll get sleep, dun worry." She said softly. She just wanted to show him how much she loved him. "Awe you're corny. But I'll keep you around." She teased.
Alice couldn't help but to look at the ring. It was beautiful. She shivered gently as he ran his fingers up her back and then unzipped her dress slowly. Goodness. Alice hoped that the attraction between them will stay like that forever. But then again, there wasn't a day that went by that Alice wanted to jump his bones. And Tony was fine with that. Alice blushed when he kissed her cheek. She still acted like a giddy high school girl around him. It was quite cue and sad in her opinion. When he was done unzipping her out of it, Alice stepped out of her dress and went towards the bathroom to brush her teeth and wash her face. She hummed softly when she was done cleaning up and smiled seeing her dress on the hanger and Tony laying on the bed.
He was too sweet to her. He hung up her dress while she got ready for bed. Alice smiled and took off her bra and slipped on another one of Tony's shirts and climbed into bed, sighing softly as she rested on her side.

Tony was a smart man and a smart man does <u>not</u> argue with his soon to be wife whom is also pregnant which concludes her emotions were a whirl-wind right now. It was smart to agree with her most of the time, only dis-agreeing sometimes but gently. Trust me, he did his homework by looking most of this stuff up on the internet. Such a good guy. He nodded slightly, he laughed, “There was a chance that you weren’t going to keep me?” He raised a brow at her being fully aware that she was teasing him.
Despite the ring’s simplicity, it was rather expensive; more expensive than other wedding rings or rather in this case, engagement ring. A smirk danced across his face as he felt her shiver. There was without a doubt they would be like this, even when they got into their eighties. There wasn’t a single moment when he did not think about her. In fact, it sometimes got him in trouble at certain business meetings. He stared at her and her ever growing belly. It was still shocking to him that she was pregnant and they were getting married. He grasped her dress and hung it up before allowing himself to lay down on the bed. He looked up at her, smiling. He figured out a while back that she prefered to sleep his shirts.
Tony wrapped an arm around her, pulling her close to him underneath the blankets. He smiled lightly before closing his eyes.

Alice beamed. "Nope. Not even .1 percent chance of that happening." Alice chirped. "You're with me." She said with a grin. Alice didn't want to know how expensive the ring was. She really would have a heart attack if she knew how much it was. She loved how aroused and excited she is just around him. It was shocking that it would probably be like this forever. She knew that she would always be attracted to his wit, his capability to love, his looks, his kindness. Everything about him, she loved.
Alice smiled as she felt an arm around her and her growing belly and she closed her eyes, giving into her sleep.
Over the next two months, Obadiah Stane disclosed to Tony about how the Stark Industries weapons - including the "Jericho" - recently delivered to the Ten Rings. And that Obadiah, in response to Stark's claim, is trying to get him fired from the company.
Alice sighed as she knew that Tony was going to fly to Afghanistan and blow up the weapons that were dispatched there. He was currently on his way home as she was having a day off of arguing with the contractors and spending time at her brother's house. Alice held her cell phone in her hand, hoping to hear from Tony soon, making sure he'll get back to the states in one piece. Max sighed as he sat on Auntie Alice's lap. "So, Uncle Tony won't be here tonight?" Max said with a small frown, as Livy trotted her way over, and placing her tiny hands on Alice's thigh. "I want Uncle Tony here." Livy demanded. Alice sighed as she ruffled Max's blonde hair and with her other hand, pulled Livy as well onto her lap. Livy looked down at Alice's belly and giggled, putting her tiny hands on the ever growing belly and giggled more feeling the baby kick. "Max, he did promise you that he'll be here. We're still nt sure. Think of it as a surprise if he does come." Alice said with a smile towards Max who slowly smiled back.
"Besides, Tony is a good man." Alan said, coming out of the kitchen with a bowl of trail mix and monkey munch (chex, chocolate, peanut butter, and powdered sugar all combined into clumps). Jessica followed after him, with a pitcher of water and cups for everyone. "And he is your uncle, almost." Jessica added with a smile to her daughter and son. Alan sat on the couch with Jessica after, as they all watched the football game on the television. It was getting closer to the Superbowl in two weeks, when the whole family gets together for a big party at Alice's Aunt's House with her cousins and her parents and her aunt and uncles and her brother and his kids. It's fun. The kids play outside, the grownups sit around and watch the game or make dinner. The dinner are "bar food": burgers, hotdogs, grilled chicken, etc. It's a lot of fun. And that everyone is in California, they can always grill food on the grill outside or have the kids go swimming. Alice sighed softly as they watched the game, occasionally dipping their hands into the bowl to grab some food. The family will wait to have dinner until Tony gets to Alan's house.

Tony grinned, a cheshire grin as she spoke. “Good because, I don’t want anyone else except you.” Oh yeah, he knew she would have flipped about the ring which was why Tony didn’t tell her therefore being a smart man. This was the woman he would be spending the rest of his life with; someone whom would never stop amazing him every single day that he was with her. He was attracted to everything about her and he would never stop being attracted to her. Tony fell asleep next to the girl of his dreams and their soon to be daughter who Tony already loved so much.
Tony was furious with Obadiah once he had found out that somehow some of his weapons were shipped to Ten Rings. He was furious that Obadiah knew nothing about how they were able to be shipped. Now, Obadiah had the audacity to try and get Tony fired?
Tony smiled, a grim smile as he flew from Afghanistan at the speed of a figter plane/jet. Those weapons were a piece of cake destroying and so were those guards who had held the towns people captive. The fact that they used a child as a weapon nearly caused him to blow them up instead of just shooting them. Tony scanned ahead of him looking out for any planes or whatever. He smiled lightly, it was just him and the clouds for the moment. Tony’s brows furrowed as he saw three-five spects ahead of him. His grin turned into a frown with wide eyes when one of the fighter jets fired on him. “Hell and be damned, Jim!”, knowing who sent them. Tony wasn’t blaming Jim, it was just he had to get over to Alice’s brother’s house. “Jaravis call Jim.” ”Yes, sir.” Tony sped forward, out manuvering the planes, by sticking himself onto one of wings of their planes. Tony groaned slightly as the rinning continued as he was found by a pilot. Finally Jim answered his dammed phone, “Oh hey Jim.” He began to ramble to Jim before, finally spilling the beans on who Jim was looking at on the radar. “It's not a piece of equipment, I'm in it! Its a suit! It's ME!” Tony talked to Jim for a little bit before the planes left, leaving a relieved Tony heading toward Alan’s house.
Tony flew straight toward Alan’s house, telling Jarvis to tell his butler to drive his car to Alan’s house at top notch. He landed softly and quietly as possible as Tony’s limo pulled up to the curb. Tony dived into it and began removing the suit, which had got to be the hardest thing to do inside of a limo. Once he was dressed in a jersey and jeans, he got out of the car and walked toward the house. Alice was going to kill him, he forgot to call her. Big no no. His fingers curled into a fist which he wrapped against the door for a brief moment. He shoved his hands into his pant pockets, inhaling the wafting aroma of food just behind that door.

Now that Alice was nearly seven months along, it was hard to do much. She sighed as she held her phone in her pocket as she held onto her neice and nephew and tickled them. They were too cute. Livy looked a lot like her father with his brown hair, but she had the big brown eyes of her mother. Max took after his mother with blonde hair, and blue eyes like his father. Alice and Alan had the same brown/auburn hair, but she had green eyes while he had blue. It was interesting to see. Someone knocked on the door and Alan got up to open it. There stood, Alice looked over with bated breath.
"GRAMMA! GRAMPA!"
The kids squealed as they bounded off of Alice's lap and went to hug Alice's parents Ramona and Patrick. Ramona smiled as the group came over, with Alice walking over last. Sure. She was sad that Tony didnt call yet. But for some reason, Alice had an idea that he would be here soon. "Hey Alan? HOw about you and dad go grill up some hamburgers?" Alice said looking over at her brother and her father who nodded and went to the kitchen to grab the meat and went out to the backyard where the grill was.
Ramona smiled as she kissed Alice's cheek and Jessica's cheek. "And we three will make the side dishes." Ramona said with a smile. Alice grinned. "We better make some corn pudding." Alice added, making the kids squeal in happiness before bounding off to the living room again. The kids loved that side dish for some reason. About twenty minutes later, thre was another knock at the door. Alice made her way to the door and opened it, narrowing her eyes at her fiance.
As cute and dashing handsome he may be, Tony should have called. "You should have called me on the way home. Something happened in the air." Alice whispered to Tony after hugging him and kissing him on the lips. Of course Alice knew about his suit. Her, Pepper, JIm, and Obadiah knew. But she didn't want the rest of the family to know. It was Tony's secret. Not hers to tell. "But, tell me later. Here, we'll have dinner and hang with the family." Alice said with a smile as she pulled away from him, still holding his hand and squeezing it gently, showing him that she was worried, but not pissed off or really mad at him.
