"pretty boy, with me!" you called, edging towards the exit. cap made to move towards you until you shook your head. "not you— peter come on!"
peter's eyes widened, taken aback by your comment. "w—what? me pretty boy?" his cheek flushed a subtle shade of pink, stuttering around his words.
you rolled your eyes, a small smirk on your lips as he wore a bemused expression across his face. you motioned for him to come with you, impatiently. "yeah, you pretty boy," you poked at his nervousness. it was sweet how flustered he'd gotten over a simple comment.
nat watched the encounter unfold quietly for long enough, she couldn't hold in an amused snort of laughter. "jeez' peter, we don't have all day— do as the girl says— go."
peter seemed to shake out of his daze, his eyes widening and locking on you. he nodded. "r—right, yeah— of course—" he stumbled all over the place, grabbing his mask from the desk beside him, pulling it over his head. "let's go."
"how does it feel having been demoted, cap'n?" tony wore an amused smirk on his lips, watching steve frown, a little embarrassed for being so presumptuous.
"you're a pretty boy in my eyes, if that makes you feel any better, cap," nat teased, letting out another bout of laughter. steve just rolled his eyes, grabbing his shield.
"let's just get this mission done, ok?" he was so serious, you must've really embarrassed him.
you and peter turned away from the group, speed walking down the corridor towards the exit. peter was lagging behind you slightly, trying to keep up but he was still in a bit of a daze.
"you clear on our task, spidey?" you glanced back to make sure he was following. you raised an eyebrow at his vacant expression, his eyes locking with yours when you spoke.
he opened and closed his mouth like a goldfish. "w—what— sorry— i didn't catch what—"
you abruptly stopped walking, peter crashing into you as you did. you rolled your eyes again but couldn't disguise the look of amusement on your face. this boy was really all over the place when it came to girls.
"s—shit— sorry! i didn't mean to— you just stopped right in front of me— not that it's your fault! it's my fault! my peter tingle's been off late— i mean— not my peter tingle— my spidey senses. my aunt may calls it my peter tingle even though i've asked her a million—"
"oh my god, peter," you chuckled, your eyebrows raised in surprise. this boy could talk. he stood bewildered in front of you, and very flustered. "listen, as much as i'd like to hear all about your peter tingle—" peter's face went a deep shade of red when you said this. "we have a mission and i need you to focus."
you thought he was the sweetest boy you'd ever met but you needed his full attention right now and the only way to get it, was to be stern. he responded to authority. he nodded hectically.
"ok," you nodded. "let's go—"
"wait—" he interrupted, his hand touching your shoulder before you could turn back. "j—just so i can get this out of my head— you think i'm pretty?"
you smiled at the innocence in his tone, his eyebrows furrowed trying to desperately understand how someone as beautiful and badass as you could think he was pretty.
you shrugged. "pretty cute, yeah, pete."
"pretty cute— huh," he blinked a few times, before letting a relaxed smile fall on his lips. "i always thought you were really pretty too, by the way."
it was your turn to falter a bit, you weren't expecting that from him. you just smiled in return and shook your head. "thanks— but maybe we'll talk about this when we've beaten up a few bad guys and retrieved the hostages inside— sound good?"
"oh, yeah," peter was drawn back to reality. "right, bad guys."
you turned, peter following you again towards the building you were supposed to be infiltrating. he caught up, striding along next to you, glancing at your look of steel every now and again, completely in awe.
"do you think you'd want to go out with me? sometime?" peter kept moving. you, taken aback by the question, stumbled over your feet, catching yourself before your slammed into the floor. peter's hands moved to your arms quickly, guiding you back up. "woah— falling for me already?" he joked, now relaxed by the whole situation. he had taken the time to process the information. he really liked you, he always had, and now he had the confirmation that you liked him too— or at least found him attractive— he felt confident enough to speak his mind.
you snapped yourself quickly out the daze you found yourself now that his face was inches from yours, his clothed hands touching your bare skin. you let out an awkward laugh, trying to brush it off.
"if you focus and smash this mission with me— i'll go out with you," you nodded, walking away from the boy who was now grinning like an idiot. you ignored him, you were desperately trying to focus but with him looking at you like that it was so hard.
"i can do that," he nodded, catching up to you with a light jog. "this should be fun," he cheesed, approaching the back door to the building. you both turned on your comms, listening as the others got themselves into position before you could go any further.
"cap and nat— are you guys in position?" tony's voice rung through your ear piece. you held your hands up defensively, facing the door, ready to knock it down as soon as you got word. your hands glowing a red colour as you powered up.
"affirmative," cap answered.
"peter, y/n?"
"all ready," peter answered before you could. he slammed his wrists together, activating his web shooters. he leant in close to you, whispering in your ear. "you look pretty hot all geared up like that."
your eyes widened, turning to face him with raised eyebrows. peter wore a cheeky smile, he could get used to teasing you like this.
"oh my go— peter— keep that to yourself next time or at least wait till the missions over," you snorted at tony's comment, laughing at peter as his eyes widened now. he stuttered to apologise but tony cut him off. "i don't want to be hearing that shit— you're kids— jesus christ."
you wore a soft smile hearing tony tell peter off. you couldn't stop yourself from taking it a step further, it was one of your many pleasures in life, making tony uncomfortable.
"if it makes you feel any better, that suit really works for you— i mean seriously— it hugs you in all the right places—" peter wore a look of surprise but still, he smirked at your comment.
"jesus— stop that please i'm begging you," steve huffed through the comms. you and peter stood waiting, still amused.
"alright," nat interrupted, though you could tell she was holding in her laughter. "we're all in position— let's kick some ass."
"anything to get the horny kids to focus on anything but each other," clint muttered for the first time, causing you to snort. you couldn't help it.
"jeez— alright, everyone move in," tony ordered. you and peter did as he said, you grabbed the door handles with your red hot hands and yanked them clean off before kicking the doors open.
"so cool," you heard peter mutter under his breath as he followed you inside.
