Wrong Number

Chapter 17

A few days later, Tony was getting ready for the party, eagerly waiting for the text from Peter saying he was there.

Peter counted to fuss with his tie, he was in a suit and he knew he looked good but he was crazy nervous. "I'm coming!" Peter called to his aunt for the third time after she yelled at him again. He sighed, this was as good as it was getting. He walked out to see his aunt dressed and ready by the door." You look beautiful " he said with a soft smile.

May flushed, swatting at his arm playfully "Thank you. You look amazing! Cmon, let's get going."

Peter flushed, opening the door to reveal a limo waiting on them. He groaned and blushed more "Tony." He shook his head. "He sent us a limo."

May blinked in surprise before following Peter into it. "Is it showing off, or...?"

Peter chuckled "No" He said, shaking his head "He's just being sweet" he murmured, blushing.

"If this is sweet his showing off must be worse" she laughed as the limo started toward the tower.

Peter snorted "I've never really seen him show off" he mused.

May laughed. "It'll be humorous when he does then"

Peter groaned "I really don't think I want to see that." He joked as they pulled up at the tower. Peter exited the limo first, holding a hand out for His aunt. May took his hand, impressed despite herself at the tower.

Peter smiled, moving so that May had a hold of his arm as they walked in, smiling at the guard who let them in immediately.

Tony looked up, his eyes lighting up as he made his way to Peter. "Peter!" He smiled widely.

Peter flushed, giving him a small smile "Hey Tony." He greeted "This is my aunt May." He said, introducing his aunt.

Tomy turned, smiling widely at the woman. "Pleasure to meet you, Ms. May." He stepped closer to Peter, his smile softening. "Seriously, I'm happy to meet the woman who is one of Peter's most precious"

Peter flushed even more, he was going to die of embarrassment tonight, he was sure of it. Peter instinctively leaned closer to Tony, chasing the closeness. He had to stop himself, they were in public, people Tony worked with were here. They'd agreed on Tony introducing him to his friends at the other half of the party instead of just dropping this bombshell on the press right away. He smiled up at Tony "Your press smile is creepy." He teased quietly "I like the normal one better." He added, cheeks still warm and resisting the urge to tug at his collar.

Tony blinked, laughing warmly before grinning at Peter. "My press smile is annoying, true."

Peter smiled "But the real one makes everything better." Peter found himself saying, blushing more before clearing his throat. "I'm going to go grab a drink." He said, looking to his aunt "Coming?"he asked.May nodded, smiling softly.

Peter chewed on his lip a moment, he wanted to kiss Tony so bad but he forced himself not to. Instead he gave him a playful grin that meant there would be tons of fun later. May had already agreed to letting Peter stay over but he hadn't told Tony that yet. They made their way over to the drink table "So what do you think?" He asked nervously.

"I think he's a good man. But I worry about the age" may sighed.

"He will grow on you." Peter beamed, getting a partially good answer as he poured them a drink.

Surprisingly Aunt May was pulled away to talk with a few people she knew.

Peter stayed back and watched contently. Tony was completely in his element here and watching him was amazing.
