Is this the end? - Peter Parker

Part 33 ~ Letters

A few days later they watched Peter's room out and they found his razors and bandages. Bruce was currently digging the stuff out from his drawer.

Bruce: I found something in here.
*he said as he lifted the stack of paper that was tied with a string*
Steve: What's that?
Bruce: I don't know yet. Some papers I guess.
Clint: Open it!

As they untied the papers, 10 letters slipped out from it. It all had a name on its back. Bruce lifted one and said the name out loud

Bruce: "For Pepper"
*he got up another one*
Bruce: This one is "For Clint"
Clint: He-he wrote letters
*he took it out of his hand*

They took the letters downstairs and Bruce handed out the letters to everyone. They went to their rooms but were afraid to open them first. They just looked at the letter with their name on it.

Clint was the first who opened the letter. He ripped the letter open and started to read it:

Dear Clint,

I'm so sorry for what I did. But don't miss me too much, I'll be okay now. I want you to know that this wasn't your fault. It was nobody's fault just mine. I chose to do this. And remember that you're an amazing and wonderful person. Thank you for being here for me when I needed you. Thank you for not telling anyone about my scars and for making me alive again. I know you couldn't now but it's okay. Thank you for the good times, for the missions... for everything. I know Earth wasn't my place. But don't worry, I'll be good up here, I'll talk to Nat. We'll be okay and I'll tell her, you miss her. I'll miss you too but don't cry too much because of me.

Sorry,
Peter

When Clint finished the letter he was crying hard. He let the cold tears roll down his face as he hugged the letter to himself.

Clint: I miss you
*he whispered*

Then Bruce opened the letter, already shaking and with a lump in his throat. As he opened the letter and started to read it he immediately started crying.

Dear Bruce,

I'm so so thankful for you, for the thousands of times you healed me after I was injured or too bad or too dumb. I know you won't be able to heal me after this one but you should know it is not your fault, it's no one just mine. Don't blame yourself, please. You helped me so much and you talked with me every time I was feeling down. I'm thankful for everything you did for me. You said that you tried to kill yourself, but the big guy split it out, the bullet. I was shocked but I felt like you were one of y'all, who actually understood me. But I don't want you to ever feel that way ok? You are still here because you are meant to be, you are loved and incredible and amazing. So don't waste time thinking of ways you could have saved me from this cause I know you will be. I'll miss you Bruce but try not to miss me too much.

I'm sorry,
Peter

When he finished, he was shaking from crying and he was angry. Not at Peter. At himself. Even though Peter told him that he shouldn't blame himself, he couldn't think of anything else, just that how could he help and save him.
