Twin Hearts
Tony x Reader!With Heart Condition


[WARNING] Some strong language is used... so reader be warned :D

[Name] shifted the belt to her baggy jeans and groaned. She had lost weight again. Biting her lip, she looked in the mirror, hoping that she wouldn’t see what she knew would be there; [Name’s] skin had turned so pale and translucent, that anyone that looked at her would think that she was a ghost. The thin veins that spider-webbed across her body, were so clear, and well mapped that she couldn’t help but shudder at the sight of them as they seemed to glow. Her hair had become thin and dead, and the circles under her eyes were so dark, that one would think that she had a bad case of raccoon makeup.

She winced, when she moved, and her chest started to tighten.

God no! Please not another attack!

[Name] being born 3 months prematurely had always had a weak body. But not until 6 months ago did she find out exactly how weak. She had a terminal heart condition that was incurable and virtually untreatable. If she did have it treated though, it would merely buy her more time. A few extra months at tops, the doctor had said; unfortunately, the treatment wouldn’t stop the pain. So instead, [name] took pain medication, and left it at that. She wasn’t the kind of person that would want to extend her life just to suffer more. She knew that dying was inevitable. So why not make it as painless as possible?

With shaking hands, she grabbed the little bottle of pills from her pocket and popped one into her mouth, and waited for the pain to subside.

Pain now gone, she took a deep breath and staggered into the living room and joined Tony, Steve, and her best friend Phoenix on the sofa. It was a regular Thursday evening and the troupe did what they did best on Thursday evenings. Watch movies. Today, it was Labor Day.

Tony patted the spot beside him, and pulled [name] onto his lap when she sat down. Cuddling her close in a friendly matter.

Truthfully, [name] had feelings for Tony. Feelings that she didn’t want to tell him because her time was almost up. And she wasn’t the kind of person to let others suffer because she had made an ill choice.

In fact, nobody knew about her condition besides the doctors. She had asked them no to tell her parents, and told them that she would refuse to tell anyone. She didn’t want anyone to treat her differently because she was sick. She didn’t want anyone, to look at her differently because she was sick, and most of all, she didn’t want to worry anyone because she was sick.

[Name] was a trooper, and strong willed. She would stick it out until the end.

Her condition was steadily worsening, and her doc had said that she had a month left at tops. Basically meaning, that she had anywhere between a few hours and a month, depending on how bad her next attack was.



Shifting uncomfortably in her seat, [name] decided that it was time to stand up, her chest starting to squeeze tightly again. It was near the end of the movie and they were at the part, were Frank is taken away by the SWAT team. Pulling out of Tony’s arms, and without looking at anyone, she stood up and made her way to the kitchen.

“Hey, [name] where are you going?” Phoenix called after her.

“Getting more popcorn.”

“Mind getting me a beer then sweetheart?” Tony winked at her, making her cheeks flush and her chest tighten even more.

Without saying anything [name] dashed into the kitchen and with shaking hands she fumbled for the bottle of pills.

The tightening got worse and she crumpled, letting out a groan. The bottle rolled out of reach and [name] laid there on the tiled floor, clutching her chest in fetal position. This was the worst attack she had ever had. It was as if a taloned hand, had shoved itself into her breast and was slowly squeezing her heart. Its icy fingers never letting its grip loosen. Gasping, [name] tried to fight the pain, but it only increased. It was agonizing! Fire and ice, was what it was. The ice of her body growing stiff and of the sharp pains; and the fire of her blood as it tried to pump life into her heart.

Faintly, [name] could hear JARVIS, asking if she needed assistance.

“No… I-I’m fine…”

“Shall, I call for Master Stark?”

“Do…n’t …you… DARE!” [Name] groaned again.

Sometimes the attack would only last seconds, sometimes it would feel like hours. She laid helpless on the floor, being able to do nothing but wait until the pain ended.


POV CHANGE~ TONY


The ending credits showed on the screen, and Tony looked up, realizing that [name] wasn’t back.

“Capsicle? Where’s [Name]?” Tony asked.

“Huh? I don’t know… still in the kitchen perhaps.”

Suddenly a crash could be heard, the sound of a glass cup breaking, from the kitchen.

Standing up, Tony sighed, “GEEZ! That woman! I swear I’ve gone through 3 sets of glasses within the past year because of her!” Tony pouted. “Hey JARVIS, what the hell is going on in the kitchen?”

“It would seem that, Miss [l/n] requires medical attention, but she refuses to let me help her.” The AI reported. “Her heart has-.”

Before JARVIS could finish, Tony was already sprinting to the kitchen.

“[Name]! [NAAAME]!!” Tony yelled, when he saw her curled up in a trembling ball on the floor. She was covered in sweat and tears rolled down her feverish cheeks.

“O my God! [name] what’s happening! JARVIS what the hell is happening to [name]?”

“She is going into Cardiac Arrest sir.”

“She’s having a fucking HEART ATTACK? Why the fuck didn’t you tell me about this earlier??”

“Miss [name] had asked me not to sir.”

“WHY THE FUCK NOT?”

“I believe that she didn’t want to worry you sir.”

“YOU-! GAAH! [name] you IDIOT! Of course I am going to worry about you!” Tony hugged [name] to his chest and murmured her name over and over while she waited out the pain. Sometimes calling her an idiot. “your not gonna die, not now stupid, I’m here so you have to wait it out, ya hear me? Ya hear me [name]?”

She felt so hot against his chest; her entire body was burning up feverishly.

“OmyGod!” Phoenix gasped when she entered the kitchen. “[N-name]!!!”

“I called for an ambulance!” Steve shouted, running back into the kitchen, “they said they’d be 5 minutes tops.”

“Five minutes is to late!” Tony snapped at him. “JARVIS, I’m suiting up, I’m taking [Name] to the hospital myself!”


~Wibbly wobbely Timey Whimey Time Skip~

POV CHANGE ~ Reader-chan


[Name] cracked open an eye, the crusty feeling of having slept for a long time filmed over her [colour] orbs. She lifted a hand to wipe away the Sandman’s dust (he had obviously done quite a bit of visiting) and gasped as her motion was limited by the IV in her wrist.

“What the-?” [Name] rasped; her was throat dry.

With some effort, [name] managed to sit up on the hospital bed, and glanced around. The room was large, larger than any hospital room she had ever seen. It was most likely a private room. The walls though were still the horrible sterile white, and the windows had the just as ugly ‘70’s blinds. The room though, was filled with an almost suffocating smell of flowers; her room was filled with them, bouquets upon bouquets of wild flowers littered every inch of free space. “Get well soon” cards were piled on top of each other, fighting for table space. [Name] couldn’t help but shake her head and giggle at the sight of them.

[Name] was awoken from her daze by the sound of a slight snore. Following the sound, she scanned the room with her eyes until she found Tony, fast asleep on an armchair buried beneath a massive bouquet of wild flowers. She couldn’t help it, [name] let out a massive snort, and started to laugh.

“HUH? Wha!?” Tony sat up groggily, dumping the flowers on the floor, and looked around the room. “[NAME]! You’re awake!!”

“Yes, yes I am awake. Your snoring could wake the dead.” She smirked when she saw Tony flush, flustered.

“How… how are you doing, love?” Tony asked, getting up from his spot to sit beside her on the bed.

“Surprisingly enough I feel great! Hungry… But great.” [name] smiled.

“Good!” Tony kissed the top of her head. “You scared the shit outta me, [name] don’t ever do that again ok?”

[name] glanced at her hands, downcast, “I-I can’t promise that…”

Tony smiled at her sweetly, “Yes you can, sweetheart,” and placed a hand on her chest.

[name] glanced down surprised that she had a similar devise implanted in her chest, to that of Tonys arc reactor.

“WHAT THE FUCK?!” [name] shouted when she saw the faint glow of the machine. “what the hell did you do to me Stark!?”

Tony pouted, “man, I thought I would get a better reaction then thiiiiisss! I made a less dangerous and more [name]-friendly version of my heart and had it implanted. You heart was dying hon, you were dying…”

“So you think its ok to just put metal hearts in people without their consent!? DUDE YOU FUCKING ALTERED MY BODY! I’m like a cyborg now!!! How am I ever gonna pass a metal detector again?!”

“YOU WERE DYING!” Toy snapped. “There was no way I was going to let the person I love DIE! Wait, metal detector?"

“YOU BASTAR!- Wait, what?” [name] stopped mid sentence and started to blush "y-you LOVE me?"

“Yes, [name] I, the great and powerful Tony Stark, The playboy-billionaire-philanthropist, IS IN LOOOVE with, [name] [last name]… have a problem with that?”

“N-no!...”

“Well… um… do y’know… have any feelings for me too… or …” Tony blushed tomato red and started to fidget nervously.

“…”

“Well?”

“I LOVE YOU, YOU IDIOT!” [name] shouted and tossed her pillow at Tony.

“ ‘Idiot’? IDIOT? Who’s the idiot?” Tony pouted, and tossed the pillow back at her gently and chuckled when he saw that her face was a flaming red.

“S-shut up!” She hid behind her pillow, and pouted.

“Awwww, c’mon! Let me see that adorable face of yours! Lemme see doll face!” Tony chuckled trying to pull the pillow away.

“No! Leave me alone!” [name] shrieked, clutching the soft downy cushion to her face.

“Aaweee! They’re just too cute! Just make up and KISS!” Phoenix chuckled from the doorway.

Steve materialized behind her, “Are we interrupting something?”

“NO!” both Tony and [name] shouted at the same time.

“Alrighty then… c’mon Steve, lets leave the two love birds to squabble~” Phoenix giggled and pushed Steve out the door.

“If you guys need anything just call me on my cell phone ok?” Steve called over his shoulder.


~ EXTENDED EEENNNDDDDIIIINNNNGGG ~


“TONY I CAN”T WEAR ANY OF MY FAVOURITE DRESSES ‘CAUSE OF THIS DAMN THING!” [Name] shouted from within the bowels of her closet.

“GOOD!”

“Wha-? Why is that good?” She huffed, storming out with nothing but her underwear on.

Tony whistled. “Babe, I don’t want anyone to see how hot you are.” He smirked.

[Name] sighed. Today was the day that Tony was holding a gala to celebrate their engagement. They had been dating for nearly a year, when Tony had decided to propose to her, and [Name] of course had accepted.

Placing his hands on [names] waist, he kissed her lightly on the top of the head. “You look sexy~”

Sighing, name pulled away, “yea, well, I don’t feel to great.”

“Awwww” Tony pouted. “Hey, but you were fine with wearing the dresses before, even with your new heart… so what’s the issue?”

[Name] blushed furiously, “I - I… the dresses don’t fit….”

“Really?!” Tony laughed.

“HEY! Don’t be mean! I can’t help it that you got me prego and that the baby is growing faster than mold on bread!... I just wanted to wear a pretty dress” [name] pouted.

“He’ll be a cute little thing~! Well… MATERNITY CLOTHES IT IS~!” Tony shouted gleefully, and dragged her into the closet.

“WAAIITT NOOO! THE DREEEEESS!”
This is dedicated to my friend
Huey,
Who's heart is in need of some fixing~

I love you dear, I hope that you feel better soon. :heart:
