When I woke up, Ray was still in bed and so I got my clothes on and walked over to his bunk. I touched his shoulder gently and started shaking him a small bit.

He grumbled and swat my hand away and it made me chuckle. "Darling, time to get up." I whispered in his ear. His eyes shot open and he burst up awake, to see me with my arms crossed on his bunk. He flushed and he waved me out of the room while he changed.

It made me laugh because we are both guys, but yet he still doesn't want me seeing him. Before I left my room, I grabbed my art book, my phone, and my headphones. I sat down and opened the small pencil tin that may had gotten me for my birthday. 

I sat in the back of the room, away from all the other people. I already knew that I wouldn't get adopted. It was nothing new. I just wanted to get this over with so I can go to my internship. I've quit my other jobs because mr.Tony had been sneaking hundreds into my backpack every Saturday. I'm so confronting him today.

I started sketching out random things, like the avengers and blueprints for the chest part of the suit mr.Tony and I were building. 

I was so into my music I didn't see the door open and some families come in to check out the kids. I started nodding my head to the beat and got really detailed without even noticing. Somebody tapped my shoulder and I jumped a mile. They laughed and I turned to face the person. And Ray it is.

"Oh, hello darling. You scared me." I smiled. He stopped laughing and flushed. I smirked,and took my headphones off and put them around my neck.

"Wow! This is really good!" Ray praised. I smiled. "C-can... can you draw me?" He asked me quietly. I just smiled brighter. "That would be perfect! Sit down, it might take a while so get into a comfortable position." I told him. He nodded and leaned back against the wall, legs crossed, and one hand on his knee and his other on the back of his neck.

I nodded and quickly sketched his position and started at his head, and his hair, face features,everything. When I had every detail on his face and head I smiled at him. I put my headphones on his and played my playlist that wasn't that dark and didn't have curses.

His eyes widened softly and he smiled while he closed his eyes. I looked on my phone and saw one of my favorite songs playing. He has good taste.

I continued to draw him, looking up at his every so often, and I was aware of some of the stares I got but I ignored them. Some were looks of disgust, and some awed at us. I just continued to draw his and when I had done a fair job at the sketch I crawled over to him and carefully took the headphones off. He opened his eyes and looked at me. 

I smiled at him and he flushed. "I'm going to go get my colored pencils so I can add color. You can keep listening to my music, just sit tight." I told him. He smiled and nodded, and I quickly walked to my room and grabbed the best colored pencils I have. Ben and may pitched in and they actually managed to get me these.

Best birthday ever.

I went back outside to the living room and there were more parents in here than there were starting. It wasn't an understatement when they said this was a popular foster home.

I got my colored pencils out and started working on Ray's pale complexion. His dark black hair. I sat beside him so I could see him a bit better and I noticed things that not many people would. His fingernails were longer than most men's, and hell, he had an ear piercing! I worked on everything I could but his eyes were left untouched. I tapped him softly and didn't let him see the picture, but i grabbed his chin and took a look at his eyes.

He flushed and I smirked, but the eyes of a picture were important. When I had seen them long enough, I gently released his chin sand started working again.

When I had finally finished a smiled and showed it to him. His eyes widened and the gently took the page.

"Peter...this is amazing!' He whispered. I flushed slightly in embarrassment and rubbed the back of my neck. "Keep it. For being such a lovely model." I laughed. He didn't flush, but instead, gave me a huge hug. I smiled and hugged him back. 


This is nice


When the five hours were up, a total of ten kids had been adopted. That's amazing. I started to get my things together for my internship, and Ray came in, and flopped on my bunk.

"Escuse me, what are you doing?" I asked. He smirked. "Enjoying your smell." My face only lit up a little bit. Not what he was hoping for, but I then said something to him.

"Join me tonight and you'll get it fresh." I whispered in his ear. He lit up like a lightbulb and I smirked.

"See you later Ray, I need to go to my internship." Is all I told him before I headed to SI. I took my normal route and when I arrived I did my routine of greeting the person at the front desk, and went upstairs to mr.Tony's lab. 

I knocked on the door and came in when I heard Tony say I could come in. He smiled at me and then we started to get to work. I was there for over seven hours. When we were done it was seven o'clock and Tony asked me something.


"Hey kid, want to watch a movie with the avengers?"
