All Of Me (Peter Parker x Reader)

Chapter 31

"Peter, straighten out your stance,"

"It is straight,"

"No, it's not. Now do as I say,"

Tony watched as Peter sighed, fixing his stance like (y/n) had told him.

"I told you,"

"Yeah, yeah,"

A smile quirked at the end of Tony's mouth as he watched the recording that DUM-E had taken. They were off yesterday when Peter had come over for their weekend training sessions. He hadn't gotten very far, just the basic warm-ups. He usually didn't bother watching them, but (y/n) had finally allowed Peter to use his web blaster (much to his excitement). He believed her exact words were, "I can't keep holding back for you. Training is going to start being a lot more difficult, especially when Tony finishes up that training bot,". The thought of her words caused him to look over at the training bot she had mentioned.

For the moment, it was laid out across his work table. It resembled something like a body at the morgue, with wire and circuits as its "guts" spilling from the torso, wired and unwired alike. It was just a little taller than him and was a metallic black color. Once he finished it up, it'd look like any other of his suits, minus the ability to dismantle itself, shoot plasma beams, or talk back when someone asked it a question.

I think it should be named Eddie. Or maybe Ted, he wondered.

He had been working on it ever since Pepper had told him that (y/n) had been needing better targets. Originally, he was going to build a bunch of flying targets for her to shoot, but then he figured that could kill two birds with one stone.

Plus, Christmas is coming up. This will make a good present to give her, he thought.

Before he even began to list everything else he had to get ready for the most holy jolly holiday of the year, his mind was interrupted by the sound of his lab doors opening. Looking at the door, his eyes connected with a familiar set as she walked across the room to stand next to him.

"Hi, Pepper," he greeted, leaning down to give her a chaste kiss as soon as she was close enough.

"Mmm. Hey, Tony," she replied as soon as he pulled away. "Dinner's almost done, just fifteen more minutes in the oven," she told him. "Reviewing tapes again, I see," she said as her eyes landed on the screen that was still playing.

"Hm? Oh! Yeah, I wanted to see how the training was coming along for Peter. He's gotten a lot better in a month. They just started using weapons,"

"I know. I saw Peter walkout earlier with a bruise on his forehead,"

"He'll be fine. I found out the hard way how thick his head can be,"

Pepper chucked at Tony's quip, a grin spreading across her face. "Have you seen (y/n)?" she asked.

"Yeah, she's out flying through Will's old course again," Tony told her, stepping away from her to pause the video on the screen.

"Again? She's been flying a lot lately," Pepper noted aloud, her face changing into an expression of concern.

Tony simply shrugged, leaning against the table with one hand. "She's probably catching cabin fever. She's always either here or at school. We have a whole forest surrounding us, it might as well be explored," he said.

A look of shock crossed Pepper's face. "She's out there alone?" she asked.

"Umm... Yes?"

"Why?"
