A/N Sorry this one is so short I just wanted to get it to you guys as soon as possible! Enjoy!

"Show me what you can do Spiderboy!" "It's Spiderman!" I exclaim and blush. "No need to hold back. I want to see exactly what you are capable of." I nod and look around at all the equipment. Where do I start?

Well I guess I could just start by showing him how I can stick to things. I walk up to the closest wall and start to climb up. He looks at me with fascination. "You can just... stick to walls! I thought that was also some type of gadget. So wait how do your abilities work?" I climb all the way to the ceiling and hang down. "Well, I was bit by a spider a few years ago and I gained a few abilities. I can stick to walls, I can shoot a web from my body but it's not very strong thats why I make my webs, and I have this thing I call my spidey senses."

Tony stands there for a moment not saying anything. "Hey Pete, do you mind if I get Bruce?" My heart starts to beat faster. I'm going to tell another person I look up to that I'm Spiderman. It took a lot of mental preparation just to tell Tony. "That- that's fine." Tony smiles at me, reassuring me everything will be alright. "JARVIS please call Banner down here."

While we wait I show Tony how I use my webs. Then we start to talk about how my spidey senses work. "So wait a minute, every time you feel you're in danger you can react faster?" I tilt my head to the side and scratch the back of my neck. "Well yes and no. I have the same reaction time as I normally would but it's more like a warning. I could probably fight blindfolded because of it but I feel like that would put me at a disadvantage. Anyway... haha." I feel like my explanation wasn't that good.

He folds his arms and furrows his brows. "So if I started throwing things at you randomly, does that mean you would be able to catch them?" I stare at him for a moment. "Um, I guess so?" He laughs.

The door opens and in walks Dr. Banner. I wave at him and he look back and forth between Tony and I. "Tony why'd you call me here?" Tony beamed as he started to talk. "You know how I couldn't get the Spider-kid's web fomula right?" Dr. Banner raised his eyebrow. "Yeah? Why, did Peter figure it out or something? Why are we in the gym?" I look at Tony. "You'll be shocked when you see this." He turns to me. "Pete do the thing." I pause a moment. What thing? Should I climb the wall?

I raise my hand up and shoot out a web that attaches to the ceiling. I fling myself to the ceiling and stick there. Then I craw down the wall back to my feet. Tony claps. "Very spider-y. I liked it." I smile and laugh a bit then look at Dr. Banner. He looks confused so say the least. "What did I just witness?" Tony walks over to me and slaps me on the back. "Pete here is Spiderboy himself!" My heartbeat quickens substantially. I feel like I'll cry or throw up if this goes bad. "Really? Wow." I look at Dr. Banner and he smiles.

I let out a big breath in relief. Well that's relieving but to be honest I don't know what else I expected. Everyone has been so nice to me since I got here. I should work on my trust more. "So." I'm snapped out of my thoughts when Dr. Banner speaks. "You have to tell me how your powers work. Tony and I have been trying to figure it out but we couldn't manage to." I smile. "Yeah sure!"

Tony, Dr. Banner, and I all talk about Spiderman and my powers. I explain to them how I work and they scold me a lot when I tell them about the injuries I've sustained. All and all, it was actually a lot of fun to talk to them. They were both interested in the science aspect and the hero aspect. They listened to me and respected me and it felt really good. I honestly wish I told them sooner instead of letting the anxiety eat me up but there's nothing I can do about that now.

At some point we had moved from the gym to the lab and I was showing them how I make my webs. We are having a great time. Then in the middle of a project JARVIS calls for our attention. "Excuse me Peter but it appears Tec requires a bit of attention. He should be walked and fed and I've also been told to infore you that it is supper time." I look up and respond, "Alright. Thank you JARVIS!" I stand. "My pleasure Peter." I clean up everything before saying goodbye to Dr. Banner and Tony. "Make sure to come to supper okay!" I scold them as I leave.

I find Tec, who is very happy to see me, then I let him go to the bathroom and I feed him his supper. After that I join the dinner rush and grab a plate. "Ooo! Is this lasagna! It looks delicious!" I scoop myself a portion and sit down. Dr. Strange is sitting to my left. He seems to be grumbling about the table manners of everyone but I could tell that he secretly enjoys being here. Especially considering how he shows up everyday for mealtimes.

Nat and Cap are talking loudly about something or another. Bucky and Sam are quietly bickering. Wanda is eating peacefully. Thor is chewing loudly while spouting nonsense. Loki is desperately trying to slip out of Thor's clutch, constantly being jostled around by him. Clint is making a picture out of his leftover sauce because he scarfed down his plate. Eventually Tony and Dr. Banner joined as well. It is all definitely very loud and lively. I'm glad they are my new family.

After dinner most of the people scatter, including Clint who was on dishes for the night. Nat went to go chase after him but I stop her. "It's alright, I'll just do the dishes for him." I start for the sink but as soon as I get there someone taps me on the shoulder. I turn and see a defeated looking Clint. "You don't have to do the dishes Peter it's alright." I step to the side confused. "I thought you didn't want to do them? It's really alright, I'm used to doing them." He looks at me with sad eyes. "You are a really good enforcer of work. You don't even mean to try and yet you're the most effective guilt trip." Nat bursts out laughing as Clint starts the dishes.

Tec walks up to me and sits. He looks deep into my eyes. I pick him up and he gets excited. "Good boy Tec." I pet him and he licks my cheek. He's so soft and warm. That's when I feel my phone vibrating. I shift Tec so I'm holding him with one arm and reach for my phone. I grab and check the contact. When I see then name my heart drops.

"H-hello?" My heart is pounding in my chest. I feel like I can't breathe. "Hey." Jackson answers. My eyes prick with tears as I hear his voice. "I was just calling because I think I gave you enough time to think things over. Have you decided to be a good boyfriend?" Hearing his voice brings back the memories of the last time I saw him. "Of course!" Whatever it takes I just want to be with him. "I'm glad. Because you know I'm the only one that will ever truly love you. I've loved you since before you had anything." The tears flow down my face. "Yes I know."

I can hear him sigh on the other side. Have I said something wrong? "I've missed you and I want to see you. Take me out and buy me things. It's the least I deserve." I wipe my tears away and fall to the ground. "Of course, anything for you." Tec nudges me to attention. "I love you babe, don't cause me anymore pain okay? The other day was very hard on me, it upset me a lot." He ends the call and I finally register my surroundings.

I look around and see that all eyes are on me. Everyone is looking at me very concerned. I'm a bit confused at first then I realize the state I'm in. I'm shaking and it's hard to breath. Sobs are racking through my body as the tears continue to flow. Tony runs over and kneels down in front of me. I can tell he's saying something but I can't process what. He holds onto my face and yells something. Then he hugs me close. "Cmon Pete! What's wrong. Please tell me, you're worrying me!" I halt my crying and try to gain control of the shaking. "I I'm s-sorry I didn't -choke- mean-mean to m-make you -hic- you worry."

Tec wedges himself in between Tony and I. "It's okay Pete. I'm just glad you're alright. Just calm down first then we'll talk." He holds me for a while. I do my best to breathe and grab control of my feelings. I let them run away with me for a second and I made everyone worry. "I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to worry you so much. I-" I can't get the words out. I hug Tony tightly. He hugs me back, just as tight. I didn't know I was this upset still. I'm glad Jackson isn't mad at me though. He's very special to me and I'm glad he'll take me back. Anyway that's not something I should worry about now. "Are you calm now?"

I break away from Tony and nod. "Yeah. I'm! I'm sorry for causing a scene. I'll make up for it and-" "Pete!" I halt. What? "You don't have to apologize so much, and you especially don't have to make up for it. Just tell us what's wrong?" Tell them what's wrong? Oh, right. This isn't the same as the orphanage. "Um nothing I was just caught off guard." Nat glares at me and a chill runs up my spine. "If nothing was wrong you wouldn't have reacted like that. Who was on the phone? Do I need to go beat someone up?!" Nat exclaims. "No! Uh, no. Don't beat anyone up. Please."
