Tom's Peter POV
My ribs hurt like hell, and the fact that Pepper was coming reminded me of him. The pain of losing Tony always managed to make me feel hollow. Pepper arrived at the Sanctum the next day. She came rushing into the infirmary to check up on me. I waved as she walked in and came up to my bed.
"Hey, Peter. How are you?" she asked
"Been better!"
Andrew and Tobey (We decided to call the other Peter that for simplicity, as it was a name he liked.) walked in with Dr. Strange, MJ, Ned, and the rest.
"Let's do this shall we?" Ned asked enthusiastically.
"Ok then" I shrugged.
The plan was to make a small video with Pepper, Ned, and MJ; talking about me and all the 'heroic' things I had done, as well as what a good human I was (insert scoff here!). We decided it was not a good time to tell the public about the threat we were facing. Dr. Strange also decided to appear in the video to share the things I had done to fight Thanos, 6 years ago.
The video did not take too long to film. The day passed with the others talking about all the 'good' things I had done, and who I actually was. Finally, the video was done, and we wrapped things up.
"I am going to see to it that the video gets broadcasted in all major channels tomorrow. Peter, come to Stark industries tomorrow, I have a surprise for you." Pepper told me before leaving.
Well, that was confusing.
I asked her what it was, and she said with a smile, "Oh you will see."
The next day, I woke up in the morning and found MJ beside my bed. She had her hand in mine, which was really nice. She had dozed off but woke up as soon as she felt me stirring.
"Hey, Peter! How you doing?" she asked softly.
I leaned towards her. "Well, I have been better." She leaned in, and my mouth found her lips. It was a beautiful moment, which ended too quickly when Andrew came rushing in.
"Oh I am sorry, I-I did not know- I am just going to wait outside." He stammered awkwardly and went outside.
MJ let out a small laugh, and I smiled at her. Gosh, she had a beautiful laugh.
We went outside to the main room, to see everyone had gathered there.
"What's wrong?" I asked.
"We have found another one of the people who came through." Dr. Strange told me.
"Where?" I asked.
"In a city called Hell's Kitchen," Andrew replied.
"Ok, when do we leave?"
"After you visit Pepper. We leave tonight." Dr.Strange told me.
"Ok then. MJ, Ned comes with me please?"
"Sure!" they replied in unison.
And that is how I found myself in the Stark industry building, with Pepper showing me my new suit.
"Tony left this for you, Peter. I was supposed to give this to you if something happened to him. He made it himself." She said in a shaky voice.
After a long-time, I was tongue-tied. I reached for the suit. "It's time to kick some ass," I told to no one in particular.
