Something like love | Peter Parker

The figure now a lot closer I can confirm that it is Peter Parker. He ran over to me sitting on the top of the play set.

"He-hey Lily uhm ar- are you ok?"

"Yes Parker, I'm just watching the sunset. What are you doing here anyway?"

"I- well I uhm was go-going for a walk"

"Well don't let me stop you, I'm about to leave anyway" I was lying. I saw a red hood sticking out of his bag and wanted to see Spider-Man in action.

After waiting for an about an hour I saw Peter walking back the way he came. Without looking away from the sunset I said
"How was your walk Parker?"

"Oh uh hi Lily I thought you would be gone by now" He said wrapping his hand around the back of his neck

"Not yet. So, did you see the mysterious Spider-Man?"

"Wha- What makes you think that?"

"Just the fact that your him" I said jumping of the play set and landing flat on my feet

"What? N- no no I'm- I'm not Spider-Man why why would you say that?" He looked around nervously

"Isn't that his- oh sorry your suit sticking out of your bag?"

"I- uh how long have you known?" I thought he would keep his charade going for longer. Guess not.

"From the start. And you look like you need an update. I can help you with that"

"What? What are you talking about?"
He said looking down at his bag that was now off his shoulder and in his left hand.

"My dad can help you with that, allow me to introduce myself. For real this time. My name isn't Lily. It's Y/N. Y/N Stark. And my dad, the infamous Tony Stark, wants you to be a Avenger he's got a few suits that he's been working on just for you. Do you want to come meet him tomorrow to pick your favorite suit?" I didn't want to reveal myself this early- I hadn't gotten much information yet- but he gave me the perfect opportunity. Plus, who knows if another would present itself?

"Mr. Stark i- is your dad?"

"The one and only" I gave him a shy smile, maybe this was too much too soon.

"And he wants me to be an Avenger?"

"Sure does"

"Seriously?!" He was surprised though I don't know where else this conversation could have gone.

"You up for it or not Parker"

"Ye- ye- yeah I mean I've always wanted to be an Avenger"

"Good. Hap will pick you up at 3 I'll be there too don't worry" I say as I turn and walk away

"Hap?"

"Happy Hogan. My dads assistant"

"Wait at my house or school?"

"School. See you then Parker" If Hap picked him up at his house May would probably put the pieces together. Was he that dumb? I thought he went to some kind of a genius school? He was probably just flustered.

"See you then" He called after me

I didn't respond.

That night I got home and sat beside my dad in his workshop.

"How was your walk kid?"

"Good, thanks I uh saw Peter."

"What. I told you specifically not to"
