Izzy walked off from the lab and flicked her hair to her back. She was tired of all the arguments and everything that was going off and felt the need for a break she wasn't getting. Peter and her had been good, but distant. Wanda had been wrapped up in her pregnancy and her one night with Olivia to do her usual movie nights with Izzy. Izzy had been busy too, with being brainwashed and whatever. And now, her best friend was injured and she was in the middle of everyone's arguments. Everyone was trying to recover from everything and it...was all a little much.

Izzy headed to Olivia's room as she knew it would be the only place where no one would be. She shut the door behind her and sighed, freezing when she heard the sound of the taps running in her bathroom. The bathroom door opened and a clueless Peter Parker walked through with shaving foam on half of his face.

"H-Hi, babe."

Izzy couldn't help but burst out laughing, walking over to Peter and taking the razor out of his hand. "What are you doing?"

"I saw Mr Stark doing this and I thought I could too. Maybe you'd like it..." He looked up to Izzy with glimmering eyes at her beaming smile.

"Peter," She giggled, taking his hand leading him back into the bathroom. He hopped up onto Olivia's bathroom side and had Izzy stand in-between his legs. He held his chin up and showed her the rest of the shaving foam on his skin, "you're ridiculous."

"I could have a goatee like ur dad!" He chuckled, being wary of the razor that was brushing against his skin. Izzy stopped for a moment, and pulled a grimace at him.

"That might be the worst idea you've ever had."

"Oh come on, you wouldn't like it?" Peter looked down at her with a smirk, he brought his hand up and wiped the rest of the shaving foam away, leaving him with half a stubble. He bopped Izzy on the nose with a finger full of shaving foam.

"Don't you think this is a look?" He said, gesturing to the incomplete facial hair.

"Let me shave that off right now."

"Never!" Peter jumped from the bathroom counter and ran through the room. Izzy sighed, placed the razor down and teleported to wherever Peter was running. She appeared in front of him which caused him to come to a halt. With quick thinking, he shot his webs out and jumped over her, beginning to fly through the compound.

"Peter Parker get back here!" She yelled, flying through the compound and chasing after the swinging boy.

"Izzy! Peter! Get down from there you'll hurt yourself!" Carol yelled after the two, but they ignored her. Peter swung out of the compound and landed on the roof, his eyes desperately searching for Izzy.

"Looking for someone?" Izzy said behind him, making him gasp loudly and almost scream in fear. Izzy smirked, throwing her powers at him before he was able to run away. She yanked him towards her, giggling sweetly.

"Now lets go and get the rest of that stubble off."

Meanwhile, Wanda laid in her bed with Natasha next to her. She stroked her hair as she tried to sleep peacefully, but all the redhead could think about was Olivia and her inability to come and lay with them. Wanda didn't mind when Natasha would come to her with her problems, and she missed Olivia too. She could hear the giggling of Izzy and Peter from outside the room, and she smiled at the thought of the two. Natasha rolled over to face Wanda, and placed a hand on her stomach.

"How's the little one doing?" She asked.

"Going well. I check up with Bruce every now and then. They're going to be a healthy baby." Wanda bit her lip in hesitation. Natasha noticed her biting her tongue, and pushed Wanda to speak.

"I need to ask you something." Wanda said.

"Go ahead." Natasha said. Wanda took her hand and took it off of her stomach. She reached over to her bedside table and took out a letter, placing it against Natasha's chest.

"I want Olivia to be the legal parent of my baby."
