________________________________________________________________________________

Its been almost a week since Peter got adopted by the famous Tony Stark. "How is it so far? Do you like it?" He put his bag on the stool. "Yeah, its all cool, Mr. Stark."

"How long has it been since your last adoption? You don't seem to fit in well around here." His hands motioned in circle. "To be honest, I don't remember. I don't really have a good memory about everything." He sit on the stool, facing Tony. "Its alright, we can take it slowly. You want anything?"

"Its alright, Mr. Stark." Tony sigh and slide a juice box towards him. "Your favorite, isn't it?"

Peter slight smiled and take the juice box. "Something's bothering you and I can tell that. Come on, what is it?"

Peter look down on the counter while Tony sit beside him. "Its just, kind of hard. I've been living in an orphanage for way too long and having a parents makes it weird. I don't really know how to fit in this kind of situation."

Tony pull the stool and sit next to him. "Like I said, slowly. Rushing won't get any good too." He stroke Peter's back, calming him down. "Sorry, Mr. Stark. I couldn't even call you dad. I mean, I could really try but its kind of tough." 

"Its alright, really." He walk to the fridge, looking for something. "Oh, by the way, your mom will be back late. She has a meeting with the school council."  

Peter just nodded and stare out the window. "What are you looking at?" Tony peep outside with Peter. "Oh, nothing. Its just been a long time since I've went out."

Tony grab his key and grab Peter to his car. "Well, why don't we go out? Get to know each other and, stuffs." He fondly smiled. Peter felt a flutter in heart so he put his seatbelt on and just brace for the trip around New York.

"Where have you been so far?"

"Not many places. The Statue of Liberty, Central Park. Basically the famous place." He look around feeling amused. "Well, welcome on board for today's tour. I'm Tony Stark and I will be guiding you through Manhattan's best places to visit." They laughed.

"I'm hungry. Are you hungry?"

"I definitely am hungry." Peter huffed. "Broadway Bagel it is."

Tony drive through the Manhattan's building. Peter seen some of the places that he's been to, but some are really unfamiliar. He doesn't really remember the last time he went out when he was in the orphanage.

"Go find a table, I'll go order some. What do you want?" Tony raised his eyebrows. "Anything you think is the best for me." Peter smiled and went to sit by the window.

Peter just stare out the window while looking at the people passing by. "Here some Buffalo Wrap and watermelon smoothie for you. Of course, I remember your favorite, cinnamon roll." Tony smiled while putting down the food on their table. "Thanks dad." Peter mumbled out.

Tony were froze for a second but he just keep it to himself. "So what do you think of me?"

"Well, you could've been a CEO of a world-leading-industries. I mean, you're capable of everything. Engineering, physics, and a lot more but you chose to be a teacher."

Tony realized the exact reason why he became a teacher out of any other profession. "My father was the CEO of Stark Industries. When my father appoint me to become the CEO, a lot of things went wrong. I saw everything right in front of me, my own industry's weapon used against me but luckily, Colonel Rhodes saved me and ever since then, I stop everything."

"But still, why a teacher?" Peter keep questioning.

"I became my own teacher to learn from my own mistake. That's when I realized I could become a better person and share my knowledge with everyone. Yes, people make mistakes but not all of them learn through them."

Peter felt impressed through Tony's words, which is lowkey right. "Well, why did you choose to adopt me?"

Tony wasn't prepared to answer that question. "Pepper has anemia and the doctor told us that if she give birth to a child, only one person, her or the child could make it. So we decided to adopt you. She couldn't risk herself to die."

That reason broke Peter's heart. He had to find out about Pepper's disease through Tony. "Sorry, I wasn't expecting that."

"Its alright, when she saw you in the room, the first time we arrived, she felt something in you. She told me that you could've become a better person in the future, just like me." 

Peter froze himself while listening to the last sentence. "That's also unexpected."

Their late lunch was disturbed by Pepper calling Tony. "Right now? Alright, we'll be there."

Peter look at Tony while he finish up his wrap. "Your mom needs me at the school. Come on."

They hop into the car and Tony drive through the buildings. "Put your seatbelt on."

After a few minutes of drive, Tony park his car at the school parking lot. Tony rush through the halls to find Pepper while Peter just walk around the school. 

"Tony Stark agreed to Scholarship Program for MIT and other Ivy League universities."

"CEO of Stark Industries retired and now sharing his knowledge to the whole world."

Peter look through the articles in the hallway about Tony. He just didn't expect him to become a teacher.

"Alright guys, thank you for the meeting today. We'll see you again tomorrow." Pepper smiled and walk down the hallway with Tony. "Peter! Hey!" Pepper got excited and she went to hug Peter. "Lets go eat, I'm totally starving."

Peter and Tony just eye-siding each other. "What? You ate without me?"

"Mr. Stark was hungry so he stopped by Broadway Bagel."

Tony turn his head to Peter with disbelief expression. "You snitch." Tony chuckled. "Well, you're eating again."

Pepper and Tony walk past the cafeteria while Peter tagging along behind them. "Hey, boy. Why are you home late?"

Peter just kept silence and walk past the teachers. "You're only been here for one week and you're already in detention." The teacher scoffed. "Ah, Ms. Potts! Going home?"

"Yeah, Mr. Thompson. Also, for your information, that's my kid you're talking about." Tony shouted from the hallway. "Thanks mom, and dad." Peter shouted back.

Tony and Pepper's lips curved while hearing Peter calling them as mom and dad for the first time.

"That's our kid."
