"So what's your last name anyway? Is it something snotty like Wilson Esquire the fourth?" Tony was tinkering again, this time on the final specs of the prototype phone, talking to Peter.

Peter laughed "Definitely not. Parker, Peter Parker." He said and he was pacing again

"Okay, Bond" Tony teased playfully. "Its a nice ring to it."

Peter just hummed "Ned has set me up on another blind date" he groaned, flopping on the bed

"Damn Ned" Tony grumbled. "Maybe this one won't be stupid?"

"Doubt it, they're all dumb," Peter said with a pout. "None of them can follow what I'm even talking about half the time. "He whined.

"Then they aren't worth your time. Anyway, to get Ned to stop?" Tony asked.

Peter shrugged before he realized Tony couldn't see him. "Probably not." He said, sighing again "I'll have to get ready soon." He added, "Maybe if I go in sweats he will leave first." Peter mused.

"Go for the Cheeto stained ones" Tony laughed

"I have ones that are so stained and worn out that they've got holes all over the place. They'll be perfect!" He said before letting out a laugh.

"Brillant!" Tony snickered.

Peter sighed "I'm awful, haven't even met this person and I'm already trying to escape". The truth is the last couple of dates since he's been talking to Tony, he's been comparing them to the other man and let's just face it, they never measure up.

"Well it's not like they've had good predecessors " Tony chuckled.

Peter sighed again "You're telling me!" He squeaked out, flailing his other arm as if the man could see him.

"I just wish Ned would quit, I don't NEED someone" He added, rolling his eyes.

"Tell him that" Tony suggested.

Peter sighed again "I'm not good at saying no...and he just looks so heartbroken if I tell him I don't want to.. so, I just tough it out." He said. "He thinks I'm lonely." He huffed, rolling his eyes

"He sounds like a pain in the ass" Tony mused

"He's trying to help..." Peter offered, picking invisible lint off of his comforter.

"Even the best of friends can be pains in the ass. Doesn't mean they aren't also awesome"

"He's making me not want a relationship at all." Peter groaned.

"Don't let him ruin it for you." Tony said.

"I could get a few cats and call it a life." Peter jokes with a laugh.

"Too much shedding" Tony laughed.

"You're right, maybe some spiders. That'd be pretty cool. I like spiders."

"My skin just crawled" Tony shuddered.

Peter snorted out a laugh "Don't be a baby." He teased."They're cute." He added.

"Spiders freak me out " Tony whined playfully.

Peter laughed. "Such a baby."

"Shush you" Tony pouted.

"I'm even worse at shutting up than I am at saying no." He joked, laughing at how adorable tony sounded.

"That's okay" Tony laughed."I'm sure we can find a way."

Peter snorted out a laugh. "Yeah, the red button does wonders." Tony let out a delighted laugh.

Peter grinned, he loved making Tony laugh. "I have another test tomorrow" he pouted.
