Distressed

ch 18; Peter and Wade's date

Peter is laughing while he and Wade are eating at some pretty fancy restaurant.
It's the same Friday as the one there Amadeus have'd encountered the first step of his awful fate.
The brunette with his hair in one thick braid is about to take a sip of his water when he sees how Tony stark enters the building.
Peter wides his eyes terrified and inhales sharply.
"Hide..." he whispers loudly and leans down while he covers his face with the wine menu opened in front his head.
Wade looks confused at him and turns to look around to see what Peter just saw.
Peter starts panicking and reaches after Wade there he grabs his black shirt and pulls him down toward the table.
Wade exhales surprised and looks asking at Peter with his head beside a green plant.
"Baby boy, why are we hiding for Mr.T ?" Wade asks with a lower voice to play along with Peter's 'game'.
Peter swallows hardly.
"Come on Wade... If Tony sees us he will walk over to us and interrup our date night by complaining about Steve...Then he will start drinking glass after glass with alcohol and getting even more annoying!" Peter snorts and isn't noticing the footsteps who are closing in to them.
"Beside...I hate lying to him!" He adds.
Wade tilts his head.
"What are you lying about?"
Peter rolls his eyes.
" Through not telling him the truth about Steve and-..." Peter explains when someone next them is clearing his throat.
Peter flinches with a pale look on his face.
He chuckles nervously and let's go off Wade before he sits upright.
Tony stands with crossed arms with a frown while he stares pissed at Peter.
Wade gasps smiling.
"Good to see you again, Mr.T!!!" Wade greets  sitting up and waves his arm.
Peter blushes and looks down at the table.
Tony grunts as a short answer to Wade without pulling his gaze away from Peter.
"And?" He asks muttering.
Peter shivers a slightly.
"Eh? And what?" Peter chuckles nervously and doesn't dare looking at Tony.
Times like this make him feel like seventeen again.
"The truth about Steve and...." Tony explains snorting.
" Or I'm just bothering you by asking that since I'm an annoyance?! The alcoholic who must drink glass after glass?!" Tony adds grunting.
Peter narrows his eyes ashamed and a slightly afraid.
He inhales deeply.
It's not like Tony could punishment him for misbehavior by grounding him or something like that.
Peter decides to be brave and look at Tony. But the look he gets startle him and he squeaks terrified.
Wade makes sounds as he is trying to hold back his laughter.
Peter snaps and looks pissed at him.
"S-shut up..." he blushes which make Wade to bursting into laughter.
Tony grits his teeth and slams his hands on the table and leans against Peter.
"Don't try to avoid answering me... I'm your father... Even though you count as an adult you should pay me respect..." Tony barks.
"I will pay my respect at your funeral..." Peter answers with a frown.
Wade is laughing louder with tears in his eyes.
"You are too funny, sweetum!!!"
Tony starts shaking of anger and stands up in stiff and angry movements.
"Peter... I want to speak with you at my office tomorrow... Come over by lunch time...Maybe we can then speak alone..." Tony snorts and focus his gaze into Peter's.
Peter gulps.
When Tony turns around to walk away, Peter jolts.
"Tony wait..." he begs.
Tony looks over his shoulder.
Peter swallows nervously.
"We....We can speak now...Sit down..." Peter suggests since he doesn't want to meet Tony alone. Especially not when Peter has made him angry.
Tony snorts.
"Lunch time tomorrow... I won't be happy if I'm not seeing you by then..." Tony tells him and leaves them alone.

Peter stares accusing at Wade.
"It's your fault" he snorts.
Wade gasps shocked and looks asking at Peter.
"How?..." he asks before he grins.
" Heh... You have managed to piss your dad really bad... Perhaps I as your daddy should punishment you later for bad- ...Ouch..." Wade grunts when Peter kicked him on his leg.
Peter shushes.
"We are sitting on a restaurant...Don't be a weird perv and get people to think I'm as weird as you..." Peter shakes his head.
Wade exhales snorting.
"Says the one who told me to hide and when I weren't you pulled me down in hurry..." Wade points out.
Peter rolls his eyes.
"If you've had from the start, perhaps Tony wouldn't have seen us then..." he sighs.
Wade smirks.
"Not me who want to hide from his own dad..." he snickers.
Peter glares at Wade.
"I'm probably too tired for sex tonight..." he says to tease Wade.
Wade inhales sharply and wides his eyes.
"Unfair! Don't take out your frustration over me...Well...You can take out your frustration over me in bed...Heh..." Wade chuckles.
Peter wides his eyes.
"Shut up perv! Stop being a weirdo or I will never take you out on restaurants anymore!" Peter warns him.
Wade snickers and grabs Peter's hand by leaning a slightly across the table.
Peter jolts.
Wade's thumb starts caressing Peter's hand.
"I love you sweetie..."
Peter gulps.
"And I love you Wade..." Peter blushes and looks away.
"If you are feeling tired I can carry you home in my arms... So, you can save your last energy to the bed"
Peter shakes his head snickering.
"Shut up..." he grins with pounding heart of happiness and love.

Peter giggles when Wade is teasing him by tickling the side of his waist while they are walking into their bedroom.
"Stop tickle me..." Peter giggles.
"Nope..." Wade whispers close to Peter's ear and gives him a gently kiss on his cheek while he turns on the light in the bedroom.
They both jolt when they are seeing Amadeus asleep in the middle of their bed.
Peter raises his eyebrows surprised of seeing Amadeus in their bed.
It was years ago Amadeus stopped sleeping in their bed with them, why have he started sleeping there again?
It all started that day when Amadeus screamed and they ran up to his bedroom there Carnage had done something to him.
Carnage said he had teasing Amadeus by tickling him.
At first Peter thought it could be the truth. But now?
No way a little teasing like that would harm Amadeus as it has.
But Amadeus has only slept in their bed while Carnage has been here, why is he sleeping in their bed now? Is Carnage here?
Or Amadeus is nervous about something else?
Peter looks at Wade whose eyes are glowing of happiness.
"It seems you can forget about something fun in the bed..." Peter teases.
Wade smirks.
"No problem... This is better..." Wade giggles smiling.
Peter pouts.
" Asshole..." he snorts mumbling.
Wade looks asking at Peter who stick out his tongue at him.
" Yeah...You are an asshole since I'm just second best..." Peter says before he snickers smiling.
Yeah, he is feeling a little jealous, but his heart pounds happily of seeing Wade is the best dad out there.
The one who always cares about his children.
Wade grins.
"No...You are like in third or fourth place..." Wade says which earned a punch at his arm.
"Fuck you..." Peter snorts and turns around while he starts smiling.
"Where are you going?" Wade asks curiously.
"I want to check one thing... I will soon be back...You can lay down in meanwhile..."

Peter walks up to the second floor and knocks gently at Carnage's door.
Since he isn't getting any answer he opens the door silently and peeks into the room.
But he isn't seeing someone there.
He closes the door and peeks into the bathroom at the same floor without seeing his oldest son.
Peter exhales relieved.
Maybe it isn't Carnage who is the reason why Amadeus starts sleeping at their bed again.
Perhaps Amadeus starts growing up and is afraid of losing his childhood for good. And that's why he starts sleeping in his parents bed again.
Peter decides to believe that reason as the truth.
Thinking his oldest son has done something awful against his youngest is a terrifying thought. And he doesn't even know what to think. What horrible thing Carnage could have done.
And Peter doesn't want to think about it either.

Peter takes off his pants and turns off the light before he lays down in the bed.
When he has putted on the blanket over his body, he snuggles closer to Amadeus and starts embracing him from one side while Wade is holding him from the other side...
