[text] yes Tony. I left the door unlocked for you<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

[text] See you soon.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Summer laid down the phone beside her hip, looking over at the dvd rack and trying to convince herself that she could move. Her back felt like something large had stepped on her, and she felt drained even after doing very little. Well, the media remote was at least within reach, so she picked that up first.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Tony stopped at a shop long enough to buy candy, and then continued on his way to Summer\u2019s.\u00a0 He parked outside, knocked on the door, and then stepped in without waiting for an answer.\u00a0 \u201cI come bearing candy,\u201d he announced, as he plopped two bags of M&Ms down on the edge of the couch by the phone.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\u201cHave I told you just how much I love you lately.\u201d Seizing one of the bags, Summer tried to rip it open without spattering candy all over the room. \u201cI turned on the system, and then my energy ran out.\u201d Resting the bag in her lap, she rubbed at her face, then gave Tony a smile. \u201cHey, Tony. Thanks.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\u201cIt was a valiant effort,\u201d Tony assured her, and stepped over to finish setting up the DVD player.\u00a0 \u201cYou ever decide on a movie?\u201d\u00a0 He peered over his shoulder at her, offering a crooked smile.\u00a0 \u201cWell, it wasn\u2019t entirely altruistic.\u00a0 I\u2019ve lived through Pepper\u2019s worst, so I figure it\u2019s best if I ingratiate myself to you, in case it gets hazardous later.\u201d\u00a0 Because of course he couldn\u2019t just say \u2018it\u2019s cool, I want you to feel better.\u2019<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

“I don’t usually get anything but whiny for the first couple days. After that I’m —ngh,” she grimaced and breathed hard, “fine. Lord of the Rings, please? Shelf of honour. That top one.” After another minute of wrestling, she got the bag open and dropped a handful into her mouth. “Truly, thank you.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
