Giving up for the moment, and resolving to ninja-check him at the earliest possible opportunity, Summer let Tony gesture her inside. \u201cYou have got to be the most stubborn man I have ever met,\u201d she said over her shoulder. \u201cDo you run this roughshod over everyone, or am I getting special treatment?\u201d She turned and gave him a wry smile. \u201cOh, wait, no. I remember, your reputation, right. This \/is\/ normal for you.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Tony simply grinned at her. \u201cI know it\u2019s a bit of a dive, and far from anything fancy, but best shawarma in town. No lie.\u201d He chuckled. Upon their entrance, the man behind the counter gave a shout of surprise and welcome. \u201cIf it isn\u2019t Tony Stark! And another lovely lady! Come to treat her to the good stuff, eh?\u201d The man winked with a suggestive smile. \u201cJust dinner for now. We\u2019ll see about later.~\u201d He quirked an eyebrow at her with a smirk. Sauntering over to his usual spot, a corner booth, he allowed her to sit before taking his own seat. \u201cAh, yes, two of the special please. And whatever the lady would like to drink.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

All she could do was shake her head with a forbearing smile and follow Tony to the booth. Very purposefully, she sat across from him. \u201cJust a soda,\u201d Summer said firmly, to the waiter. \u201cLemon-lime.\u201d Then she fixed Tony with a sceptical look. \u201cYou\u2019ll see about later? Maybe you want to ask me? I might have plans. I might have a boyfriend \u2014 or girlfriend.\u201d<\/p>\n

I might be starting to wonder if the game is worth the candle, she thought. I definitely don\u2019t want to be a one-night stand.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n

He simply smiled, lacing his fingers together and balancing his chin atop them. \u201cWell, do you?\u201d The waiter brought their drinks, already knowing what the billionaire would order.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Summer tried to keep her face stern, but failed after a minute, laughing. “Okay, you got me,” she admitted. “I don’t have anyone. I have no lovers, I have no plans, and I have no life.” Tearing the top of the paper on the straw, she tried to blow it at Tony.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
