                                                Tony POV 


It's been exactly 18 hours since Cody went in surgery, Bruce made me stay out with the others saying that I didn't want to see her being operated on, 

Which was probably true, we waited and waited, 

Steve stood up, 

"I'm going to get some coffee anyone want anything?" He asked 

"Yeah," All of us said 

He nodded and walked off, 

After three more hours, Bruce finally came out, 

We all stood up, 

"How is she?" I asked 

"Tony she's really lucky, she had major internal bleeding, but I took care of it, she has eight cracked ribs, a fractured forearm, a cracked cheekbone, broken collarbone, her femur bone was broken in three places, a fracture on the right hip bone, not to mention a collapsed lung, bruising in the liver, kidney and pancreas, and a concussion, she also went into diabetic shock during the procedure" Bruce said 

We all looked at each other, 

"I patched her up,  gave her the proper injections, but she's not going to have to get out of bed for a while, she's not out of the woods yet," Bruce said sadly 

I nodded, 

"Can I see her?" I asked 

"Of course," He said 

I walked in Bruce and the others walked in behind me, 

"I have her on some pain killers that won't affect her condition," He said 

I nodded, 

She was in bad shape, there wasn't a part of her that didn't have bruising or gauze on it, there was a oxygen mask over her nose and mouth, and a IV in the top of her hand, 

I took a deep breath taking a seat next to her, 

My back to the others, 

"Nat, Barnes I need you to question him," I said 

"On it," Barnes said not even hesitating, 

"Thanks," I said 

"We'll stop by later," Steve said 

I just nodded, 

After everyone left I took her hand in both of mine,

"He's going to pay for this sweetheart, I promise," I whispered 

I tucked some of her hair back, 

"Even if I have to do it myself," I whispered 


                                     Cody POV 


Beep, Beep, Beep, 

What the frack is that noise, 

Beep, Beep, Beep, 

Come on Cody wake up, I thought 

Everything hurt, 

Beep, Beep, Beep, 

My eyelids slowly flutter open they felt too heavy to open, The blinding light hurt not only my eyes but my head, 

I squeeze my eyes shut again, 

I slowly turn my head, opening my eyes again, 

I see Tony cupping my hand with both of his, his head laying on the edge of the bed, he looked to be asleep, 

I hear footsteps, 

Pepper walked in, 

"Tony I got you-" She began, 

She was holding two glass mugs, 

She makes eye contact with me, and drops the cups and they shatter on the floor causing Tony to jolt awake and look at Pepper, 

"Pepper what the-" Tony began, 

He looks at the pure shock on her face, Tony follows her gaze and makes eye contact with me, 

He rushes over to me, 

"Cody can you hear me?" He asked 

I nodded slowly, 

Tony looks over his shoulder, 

"Get Bruce," He said 

Pepper nodded and ran out of the room, 

"What's-" I said weakly wincing as I tried to talk, 

"Hey, hey easy your in pretty rough shape kiddo," He said 

"Where.... Is.." I began having trouble breathing 

"He?" He finished for me, 

I nodded weakly, 

"Not going anywhere, " Fury said walking in with Bruce and Peter,

"He's going away for a long time assaulting a shield agent is a big offense," Fury said 

"I'm... not.." I began but stopped I was too out of breath, 

"Sure you are, you got him to confess to join HYDRA," Fury said 

He held up my watch, 

"Is... that?" I said 

"Your watch yes, and pretty crafty having it record," He said  he tossed the watch to Peter,

Tony looked a little surprised, 

I closed my eyes, 

"I'll let you rest, get better, oh and welcome aboard," He said walking out, 

Peter kissed my cheek, 

"I'll talk to you later," He said handing me my watch back and walked out, 

My eyes suddenly felt heavy but I was fighting it, I wanted to talk to Tony, 

"Rest I'll still be here," He said clearly seeing me fight my sleep, 

"Thank... you.... Dad" I said and slowly I lost consciousness, 


                              Tony POV 


I watch how weak she is right now, probably from all of the blood loss, 

"Rest, I'll still be here," I said cupping her cheek with my hand, 

"Thank... you....Dad," She whispered 

I looked down at her seeing she has fallen asleep, 

Hearing that word just makes my heart swell, 

"Anytime Sweetheart.." I whispered back, 

Taking her hand in mine rubbing circles with my thumb on her hand, 

I think after this is all over, I'm claiming my rights as her father ridding her of that dirt bags last name, 

So she can officially be a Stark, get rid of that bastard for good, I thought 

I picked up the watch and hit play and started to listen to the conversation since I'm going to be here for a while,
