Could this be considered an ambush, if she knew he was landing here?
It had felt like months since she had even seen the back of Rhodey's head let alone the War Machine in steel. In the truth, it had been months since they had been able to catch each other's wind and maybe Pepper had been the one to move a Resilient meeting or two around, when she heard Rhodey and here were going to be in the same quarter of the States.
❝ James Rhodes, is that you in that hunk of metal? ❞ She calls as she had been waiting for him, certain he had spied her come into the hangar. If there wasn't any pressing matters, that Pepper was hijacking him for catching up. He was more family to her than anyone else had been, and with how busy both of their own schedules were and on to top of the hero business. War Machine's and Rescue's.
If she had to carve out time for the both of them, than she would. Her therapist always said that self-care was essential and this was some much needed that. ❝ Get over here! ❞ She's moving towards him herself to catch him in her arms.
