"James, can you get that?" You were In the middle of cooking dinner when the phone disrupted your silence.

"Of course, doll" He answers, kissing your cheek.

You and James had been married for quite some time. You both decided to retire as avengers when you fell pregnant with your son Peter.

He was a sweet boy, 10 years old. He loved math and science. Bugs and insects were his favorites, especially Spiders.

Peter was always lightly teased for his interests or his smartness, even his parents. But this year it had gotten significantly worse, without your knowledge.

"Hello? He did what? Of course, I'll be there in 15 minutes"

"What happened?" You ask, walking over to him

"Peter got into a fight, they want me to come and pick him up since he's been suspended for 2 weeks"

"Oh my gosh."

"Yeah..."

"I hope their both alright"

"I do too. I'll see you when I come back"

He gives you a quick kiss and leaves.

"What the heck, Peter?"

He stays looking at the ground, a tissue stuffed in his nose to tame the bleeding.

"I'm sorry about him. What happened?"

"Caleb said that Peter just started attacking him" The principal shrugged.

"Really? That's not like him"

He shakes his head and James leaves with Peter.

~

You rush over to Peter and touch his face. "Oh sweetheart, what happened?"

"Nothing" He mumbled

"Obviously something happened"

Peter sits down with you and James and stare at him while he did everything in his power to avoid eye contact.

"What happened? Why did you attack that boy?" James starts

Nothing.

"Peter, I'm talking to you. Why did you attack him? Did he proke you?"

He nods slowly.

"What did he do?" You whisper

"He said that my dad was nothing but a killer who should have died when he fell off the train"

James goes silent and walks away. You follow him.

"Whats wrong?"

"My actions as the Winter Soldier is affecting our damn son. I'll take every ounce of hateful activity I revive, but my fucking kid having to deal with it!? No"

"Lets finishing talking to him first, ok?

He nods and kisses your hand.

"Pete?"

"Yes?"

"How long is that been going on?" You ask

"Since the beginning of the year" He mumbles

"Why didn't you tell us?"

"I didn't want dad to feel bad"

"Peter, you can always come to me and your mother if something is wrong" James nods

"I understand what that boy said upset you, but you shouldn't hurt other people if they don't do anything to you first"

"Ok"

"And good job" You smiled

His little face lit up as the words left your mouth.

"Really?" He laughed

"Yeah, the little fu-"

You give him the 'don't you dare' look

"Little devil. The little devil deserved it"

You all laughed and James cleans up Peters's face while you finish up dinner.

~

You all sit down to eat and James breaks the comfortable silence.

"I'm gonna teach you how to fight, Pete"

"Would you really?"

"Of course! Those little brats at your school will learn to never mess with our son"

He smiles pridefully and takes a sip of his water.

"And I'm sorry I got you bullied. I think we all wish I wasn't the way I was"

"What!? I think you're awesome, no matter what those little fuckers say!" Peter smiles

"Pete!" You fuss

James hysterically starts to laugh, causing both you and your son to join him.

~

You all cuddle up on the couch and watch a movie. Peter falls asleep in your lap.

"No fair he likes you better"

"You can try again on the next one" You smile, walking away to put Peter in his bed.

"What's that supposed to mean?" He asks

You continue to walk away and he follows you

"Are you pregnant?"

"Not yet" You wink

James smirks and pulls you into your bedroom and closes the door. Hearing the satisfying click of the lock on the door.
