I wake up in a nice cozy bed. I dont remember waking up anf getting here. Mr.Stark mustve brought me here. I turn over to the other side of the bed just to be welcomed to a bright light. Groaning i hazily ask F.R.I.D.A.Y for the time

"It appears to be 7:49 am Mr.Parker"

"Please for the love of god. Call me Peter"

"Yes Peter" I lay in bed for few more minutes. Trying to get more shut eye. F.R.I.D.A.Y interupts me trying to sleep

"Mr.Stark would like you down stairs for breakfast in 1 hour. He advises you to take a shower" take a shower? Man i havent taken a shower since 2 weeks ago. And that wasnt even a real shower. Sitting up and leaving my bed. I head to the guest bathroom. This bathroom.was bigger than my old room at mays apartment. May... oh how i ever miss her so much. Shaking my head to get the thought of may out of my head. I strip down to my boxers. Looking at myself in the mirror. I was so pale. I was still so fat. But i guess my ribs were showing so thats a plus. Glancing to the floor. I hop into the shower. It felt great to shower with hot water. It felt even greater to use shampoo, conditoner and body wash.

I finished my shower in record time. 4 minutes and 27 seconds. I know ive shouldve taken longer ones but im so used to taking like 5 minute shower ever since i ran off. Walking to my closet. I pull on a Stark Industries crewneck and jeans. I head downstairs after changing to be greeted by all the avengers.

"Hey kiddo."

"Hey Clint."

"How ya feeling?"

"Okay i guess"

"THERE IS FOOD TO BE EATEN" Thor's voice boomed. Causing a little giggle from me. We sit down. Everyone digs in except me. Ive been so used to not eating that im scared to eat. Obviously Mr.Stark noticed.

"Kid you gotta eat"

"I-i know. Its just. Nevermind"

"Kid something is on your mind? Do you wanna go down to the lab?" The lab!?!? Havent been down there in months. Mr.Stark mustve saw my excitement.

"Im going to take that as a yes seeing how youre eyes light up" he says chuckling.

"Pete? How about you go down and ill be there in 10 minutes" i nodded and made my way to the elevator. The doors closed behind me. I ask F.R.I.D.A.Y to take me down to the lab. She did as told.

After arriving to the lab. I glance around for anything to tinker with. Something in the corner of my eyes was caught. Taking a closer look. I recognize it as my suit. He mustve brought it down here after i ran off. I know im not susposed to have it. But the urge to just put on the mask was just too much. Carefully grabbing my mask. I slip it over my head to be welcomed by Karen

"Hello Peter. Long time no see"

"H-h-hey Karen. Yeah long time no see. Ive missed you" I was completely unaware that Mr.Stark entered the room. I sat there talking to Karen

"Ouch an A.I gets a 'i miss you' before i even do" I quickly turn around. Looking at Mr.Stark fake pouting. I wouldve laughed but i was too afraid that Mr.Stark will take Karen again.

"I-i-im Sorry Mr.Stark. i know i shouldnt wearing this."

"Kid its okay! Thats what i wanted to work on. Look kid. Its my fault you ran in the first place. I shouldve listened to your problems instead of getting angry. You can have the suit back"

"Wha? Really!"

"Of course kid. Now lets fix it" Jumping up and down. I take off the mask and proceed to fix it. My left eye was broken. Some of the wires were also broken. Therefore meaning i have half the power of the suit. I was telling Mr.Stark all the problems, he layed a hand on my chest.

"Kid. Before we do anything. Youre gonna eat alright? I know youre struggling to eat so i thought it might be easier if you only ate with me. Or Natasha. Or Clint. Or even Wanda! I know you only trust them right now-" he took a breath before continuing on.

"-because kid. Youre extremely underweight. Youre about 40 pounds less than what the average 16 year old should be 134.4 pounds!" Glancing down to my wrists. Not knowing what to do. Should i just stay quiet?

"W-what is my weight?"

"Kid.. Youre 99 pounds.." Then it was awkward silence. I had no idea on what i could do? Quickly gazing onto the plate. There was broccoli, Rice, Smoked porkchops and a little bowl of what used to be ice cream. It was all my favorite.

"I-i-i liked your idea with eating with one of you four guys. I-ill eat now if thats okay" Tony eyes light up with something i havent seen from anyone lately. Hope. Mr.Stark had hope in me. He sets me down at the table and gave me my plate. Reluctantly picking up the fork. I dug in. The flavours lit up my stomach. Causing me to be a bit giddy. I dug into the rest of the food. Eating quite quickly.

"Wow kid never seen you eat like that!" He chuckles. Causing me to become anxious of my weight again. but letting it slide, we move on to fix my suit for a few hours after.

Those few hours really worn me out. I was tired by 11:30 pm. I yawn. Causing Mr.Stark to notice.

"Hey kid. You look extremely tired. Here a blanket and a pillow. Go take a rest on my couch."

"Wha- what about you?!?!"

"Kid, ill be fine. Now go rest" picking up the blanket and pillow Mr.Stark gave me. I head over to the couch and lie down. Resting my eyes. And falling into a quite peaceful sleep.
