Getaway
It had taken some time and a lot of hints and suggestions, but Natasha had finally convinced Tony to take a few days off and go somewhere else. Natasha was getting cabin fever and had to get out of the penthouse for a little while. She would shoot someone if she didn't get a change of scenery and she would need her husband around after the baby came.

It was nice on Martha's Vineyard this time of the year and it was close enough to New York that if something happened they could get home easily enough. The yacht was nice, but Natasha wanted dry land under her feet and places to shop. She loved the small quaint shops on the Vineyard and she would convince her husband to take her shopping.

They got settled in at Tony's house on the Vineyard after a four hour drive (and many stops to use the bathroom) and a short ferry ride over to the island. As soon as they were settled, Natasha went to find her husband to see if he wanted to go for a bite to eat. Someone was demanding french fries.

Tony was e-mailing Pepper a bullet list of things he wanted and needed to know before he got home in a few days, and Tasha would find him closing his laptop down when she found him out on the balcony.

"Hi, honey. You look beautiful, as always. I'm glad this trip came to mind; you were right, we both needed some time off from all the craziness in our lives and Eddie needed to see how nice Martha's Vineyard is." Tony says, touching her stomach.

"So, what would you like to do first?" he asks.

In the past she would have mentioned something about him working when he was supposed to be not working, but Tony had been really understanding and wonderful during this pregnancy. He had been there through this whole thing and she appreciated it. He had been working from home for the past two months, had gone to every doctor's visit and had been great when it came to getting food and rubbing her feet.

"French fries," she said and wrapped her arms around him as best as she could. Her stomach kind of got in the way. "We want some french fries." She smiled. "And maybe some window shopping."

"All right. We can do French fries tonight, but I have to ask something up front right now. Do you think you and Eddie will be up to sitting through dinner with the President and his wife tomorrow, night?" Tony asks.

"If you are, great. If not, I'll call and let them know we can't make it. I just don't want to be in the room with one of the most powerful men in the world without being able to say I've got one up on him." Tony says, a devilish grin lighting his face.

	"I think Nick and I can manage though we may need some foot and back rubs afterward. We can't just say no to the President and his wife," she said. "I can't wait to see the rumors that will get started." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"You know, Eddie's going to develop a complex if I call him by his name and you call him 'Nick'. He's not going to know who he is. That's a sad thing for a child." Tony chides.

"But there will be plenty of foot and back rubs, Mrs. Stark. If you're really good, there will even be ice cream." he smiles.

"Oh, you mean that rumor about me being Secretary of Defense will start up again? Hell, you hear the Secretary of Homeland Security just quit. I wonder how long it'll take for people to assume I'm up for the job?" Tony inquires.

"Oh he'll know who he is," she said. "I don't doubt that. I like Nick Stark better."

She smiled and kissed him. "I like the sound of that. But first, eating and shopping. Then pampering."

"Probably not very long, I would guess, but yes that one. There's also me being there and being Russian. I'm sure there will be some about Russia trying to influence American policy."

	"You influence this American's...policy daily, my love." Tony grins, kissing her back. "But yes, let's get food and do some shopping. I want to get Neddie several knick-knacks for his nursery. I also want to find something to send Anya." he says. "Mostly, I just want to walk around with my beautiful wife and buy her anything she points at." he grins. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	redheadspy 2010-08-25 04:08 am UTC (link)
	She kissed him back. "We are not calling him Neddie," she warned. "No matter what." "Food would be good. We're hungry and we want French fries." She took his hand in hers. "Let's good. I can't resist food and shopping with an incredibly handsome man. I just hope my husband doesn't find out about him." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"But...but it's cute!" Tony says. "Eddie, tell your mother it's cute."

Tony leads Tasha out of the apartment and down to the local eatery. He orders the "Basket o' Fries" and tells the server to keep them coming.

"So, about this husband of yours...I hear he keeps weapons of mass destruction nearby in case you start dating while he's busy. I think we should just tell him you're having my baby and get it over with." Tony shrugs.

	"It's not cute," she said and there was a kick signaling Eddie or Nick's agreement. "He does. He likes to play with dangerous things. Very dangerous things." There was a mischievous smile on her face. "We probably should," she said thoughtfully before taking a bite of a French fry. "He's the jealous type though." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	nextgen_parent 2010-08-25 04:26 am UTC (link)
	"Well, if he'd been playing with the right dangerous things, you'd be having his baby." Tony grins. He feeds Tasha a second fry before having one for himself. "So, have we decided who we're roping into being godparents this time around?" he asks. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	redheadspy 2010-08-25 04:35 am UTC (link)
	"You have a point," she noted. "How am I ever going to tell him that this isn't his baby? Do you think I should send an email or a text?" She grabbed another fry. "We haven't talked about it. Do you have anyone specific in mind? I'm willing to hear suggestions?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	There is no answer for over a minute. Then the bathroom door opens and Tony Stark finds himself looking at his own face. He can only stare with wide eyes. "What...what's going on?" he asks, in a voice not his own. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I don't know," she said as she started at /her/, or at least her body. She blinked a few times and then looked down at...Tony's body. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Okay, let's go over the facts." Tony says with a cute Russian accent. "We went to bed last night after a round of Eddie-kicking, and now we're...switched?" Tony asks, barely able to believe this. Eddie chooses this time to kick an organ she winces. "Ow!" she says. "That's my spleen, buddy! I /need/ that!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	redheadspy 2010-08-30 03:57 am UTC (link)
	"That about sums it up perfectly," Natasha said. "No wonder why I was sleeping so well. A night without having organs kicked and waking up every hour to go to the bathroom." Natasha blinked and then started laughing. Karma was a bitch and this was just too funny. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"It sounds great until you have to eat it," Natasha said. "It is my cooking and we both know how that usually turns out." She took her/his hand and started to lead him to the kitchen. "Come on. I'll take care of you." There had been weird things in her life, but this took the top prize. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
