Unfortunately, the curse of \u2018hair to your knees\u2019 kicked in just then, resulting in three seconds of swearing, followed by ten seconds of pulling all the strands including the annoying elusive ones out from under the straps \u2014 and the total ruination of the cool impression she\u2019d been trying to make.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAaaand now I look like an idiot.\u201d Shoving her hair back over her left shoulder, Summer pulled the glass door open and asked, \u201cHow is this supposed to work, anyway? Am I supposed to follow you around, or \u2026 boss you around?\u201d She accented that last with a raised eyebrow.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Tony cleared his throat behind his hand to mask his short burst of laughter, but it wasn\u2019t an entirely successful endeavor. \u00a0\u201dAn idiot? \u00a0I wouldn\u2019t say that,\u201d he said, his tone one of pure innocence. \u00a0\u201dBut it probably wouldn\u2019t be a bad idea to keep such an impressive mane tied back.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As she brought up who was supposed to boss who around, his eyebrows rose. \u00a0\u201dI\u2019m pretty sure you\u2019re supposed to be in charge. \u00a0Besides, if you just followed me around, all mystique would be lost and I\u2019d be revealed as just a rather eccentric business man with very nice toys.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>That earned him a grin. &#8220;I like nice toys. What kind of toys are we talking about here?&#8221; A blast of cold air hit her from the open door, and she shivered. &#8220;Come on, then! I want to know what&#8217;s here. Can I see your garage? Workshop? Is there a pool?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><em>Can I touch you? Because fuck, you&#8217;re gorgeous.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Summer thanked the gods Tony wasn&#8217;t a telepath.
