Be My Valentine
Living with three women, especially the women in his family, for over a year had taught James quite a few things about women and what they liked. Valentine's Day had come and James had to do something for Valeria. He did wish that Anya was around to ask for her advice, but he'd muddle through somehow.

He didn't have the Stark name to throw around to get into nice places, but he did know someone who could hook him up. A week ago he had wandered into Stark Inc and talked to Pepper. Pepper could make the arrangements James needed and also give him advice. James was not afraid to admit that he was clueless when it came to these types of things.

With Pepper's help, plans had been made and the day had finally arrived.

James put on a suit, bought flowers (daisies, not roses) and showed up at the Baxter Building.

"Mom says that would never happen," James chuckled. "Though now I guess it's a contest between her and me to see who eats the most."

"Your Mom's a bottomless pit too?" Valeria smirked.

"Not yet." A pause. He realized he didn't tell her the news. "I didn't tell you. My mom's pregnant."

"Oh! Congratulations! Is it a boy or a girl or don't her and Mr. Stark know yet?"

"Thanks. I think it's too early to tell?" He shrugged. "I dunno. I didn't ask."

"Oh." She smiled. "Still, congratulations. A baby is pretty exciting."

"Yeah," James said. "But do either of us know anything about babies?"

The waiter arrived and James waited for Val to order first.

"I took a babysitting class at the Y a really looong time ago," she said. "I think I remember how to at least change a diaper..."

She gave the waiter her order.

It took James a little while to place his order. He smiled at Val when the waiter left. "You can teach me."

"I can," she said with a smile, "It's not nearly half as complicated as it looks."

James nodded. "How's your family?"

"Better," she said, "With everything that's been going on lately, things have been a little...shaky. But we're working through it."

"Good. I'm glad to hear that." James knew how much her family meant to her. With everything that had been going on, he was glad they were all okay.

"How's yours?" Valeria asked, "I mean, other than your mom. How're your sisters and brothers doing?"

"They're good." Sure his sister was no longer as evil as normal, Tony was back, Misha was good and so was Eliza. Mom was missing though. That didn't not bode well. "For the most part."

"Is everything...okay?" A concerned look crossed Valeria's face.

He reached over and took her hand. "Nothing right now, but if something comes I'll let you know. Thank you."

She gave his hand a squeeze. "In case you don't know already...I'm always here for you."

He smiled. "Thanks. I'm always here for you. If you ever need me, just call. Day or night."

"You can count on it," She leaned across the table and kissed him.

James returned the kiss and smiled. With perfect timing, the waiter arrived with their food.

James' stomach rumbled at the smell of the food. "Smells wonderful."
