Summary
They met at her brother’s birthday/New Year’s Eve party back in 2011. The playlist was a tribute to the past decade and MJ was making peanut butter sandwiches in the kitchen. She wasn’t interested in anything he had to say until he mentioned that a friend of his was an intern at Stark Industries. That’s when she locked eyes with him and asked him about his stance on global arms trade.
Whatever he said, it launched a long debate on everything and nothing and he liked how they bounced back and forth between topics and how they agreed to disagree more often than he could count. He liked that neither of them was eager to ‘win’ the conversation.
He joined her outside on the balcony when the new year was still an hour or so away and watched her light a cigarette with a matchstick. He tried to convince her that she should quit smoking because it was bad for her, but she just smirked and called him a 'loser' and he knew he wanted to be her friend.
