Third-person POV

Nat walked back into Peter's room after knocking, her face serious. "Hey, Pete?" "Yeah Nat what's up?" Peter responded shifting uncomfortably under her gaze. "Bruce doesn't know about your spider tendencies, but" she paused looking uncharacteristically uncertain, "He does know about Mira" Peter froze, his smile dropped off his face and replaced with a terrified expression. "D-did he tells anyone?" Peter asked in a shaking voice, forcing his tears to stay where they were. "No Pete" Nat said scooting towards him. "Please don't tell anyone I'll tell them when I'm ready" "Of course, I would never do that or let anyone do that to my baby spider." "Thank you momma spider," Peter said smiling, Nat returned his smile and opened her arms to let him in. Soon after Peter curled into her arms he fell asleep and began snoring lightly. Nat grabbed Peters's phone (which he had told her she could use whenever she needed it) and went to the messenger to tell May that he wasn't going to come home tonight. Usually, when Nat did this she would preface the message with "this is Natasha typing" but she suspected Peter was getting abused and wanted to test her theory. She typed "hey Aunt May, Would it be ok if I stayed the night at the tower?" and set the phone down. It was an hour until she got a reply, it read "I don't give a fuck, don't even come home for all I care" so her hunch was correct. "We will definitely have to do something about that," she muttered under her breath watching Peter's chest slowly rise and fall. 

TIME SKIP

Natasha snuck out of Peters's room when the light started streaming through the window, she greeted Steve with a warm smile that melted when she flicked the tv on. "what's wrong?" Steve asked "umm I think Peter's an orphan now" "Nat he's been an orphan for a while," Steve said gently "no I mean I think he's all alone now look," she said pointing to the tv. "Oh shit," Steve said, and no one made the joke this time. Peter stumbled into the commons at that minute, and froze at the headline "May Parker dead in a car crash." He fell to the ground and Nat and Tony rushed over to him, "shhh baby spider" "kid it's going to be ok" "HOW" Peter screamed surprising the three adults in the room "I don't know but it will." Nat nodded her head in agreement "come on kid" Tony picked up peter and carried him to his room, Nat following after telling Steve to stay put, the last thing Peter needed right now was someone pinning for them. "Mr. Stark?" "Yeah kid?" peter sounded broken "why is it always me?" "I don't know Pete," Tony said not looking him in the eyes "maybe" Nat interjected "maybe it's cause the universe knows you can take it, and it gave you the pain other people couldn't handle"  Nat explained gently "but it's not fair" peter sobbed "no Pete it's not" Nat locked eyes with Tony behind Peter. "Moma spider?" "yes Baby?" "Will you stay with me?" "Of course peter"
