Peter
////////////

It was currently a couple minutes past 8pm and Peter, along his best friend Ned and his now girlfriend MJ, were currently going for a calm stroll through New York's Central Park after a very long, but fun and exhilarating day of adventures.
First, they had started the day off with visiting the city's annual fair. Peter absolutely loved fairs, and his favorite ride would most likely be the huge red claw that flings you everywhere. MJ shared his excitement, her favorite ride being the chairs that spin around and rise over a hundred feet into the air. Ned however, wasn't exactly the biggest thrill seeker, but he did find fun, indulging himself in carnival games and the huge Farris Wheel that went taller than some of the city's buildings.
In the end after riding each of the 40 rides in the park at least 3 times, the three of them got some pink and blue cotton candy from the concession stand (curtesy of Tony's credit card), and made their way over to their second activity of the day, the opening of New York's largest underwater aquarium.
That place was about as spectacular and magical as you'd think walking through a tunnel with the hugest of ocean creatures swimming beside you would be. It was like Poseidon had just been bored one day and decided to create sharks that were red and over 12 feet long, as well as sea snails that were easily as big as someone's pet chihuahua.
Peter and his friends spent a good 2 and a half hours walking through the underwater museum and being fascinated by all the stunning sea creatures around them. They found huge and small octopi, each being a different color then the other. They found fish with the craziest patterns on their fins, some fish speeding by the tank's glass like a Fish-Flash, and some slowly swimming next to the glass and not being fazed by small kids who tapped their fingers on the glass eagerly.
Peter took hundreds of photos, some being with MJ or Ned or all three of them. They took a picture in front of a wall that had thousands of shark teeth, as well as taking one with a sea turtle who had swam up towards the glass and was watching them curiously.
Peter also took photos of just about every fish, sea urchin, octopus, sea snake, and thing that he could find.
"Wow," MJ joked.
"And I thought I took a lot of photos."
Peter simply chuckled and snapped another picture of a stingray that swam by him.
He wanted pictures to show Mr. Stark when he got home, and he was also thinking about printing some pictures out and hanging them up in the walls of Tony's little room. That is, as soon as he got a little room.
Eventually after hours of walking practically underwater, Peter, MJ, and Ned all left the museum and stopped at a hot dog cart, each grabbing one delicious dog before heading to Central Park to go on a walk and watch the sun set.

Here they were now. They had walked the perimeter of the park a couple times now, halfway through their fourth or fifth lap.
The sun had just about fully disappeared as the sky went from orange, pink, yellow, and other warm colors, to dark blue and purple, littered with small shining specs.
Peter quickly pulled out his phone and took another photo of the sky, deciding he would set it as his laptop screen saver later on once he got home.
Oh yeah! Home.
As they walked under the luscious canopy of trees, Peter was suddenly aware of the fact that Tony was back at Avengers tower, either in his workshop or getting ready for the night.
Even though currently, Tony was in his big headspace and probably wouldn't need him, Peter still felt obligated to check up on Tony and see how he was feeling. Not to mention, occasionally Tony had an issue with going to sleep at night, and it was very common for him to end up between headspaces, another reason Peter always tried to be with him.
Peter eventually decided that he had been away from Tony for too long and that it was time to end this wild and adventurous day and go back to the tower for the night.

"Hey guys?" Peter spoke, causing Ned and MJ to glance at him as they walked.
Peter smiled cheekily and rubbed the back of his head.
"Thank you two for today. It was awesome and I mean it."
MJ made a spinning movement with her hand.
"And?"
Peter looked down at his feet.
"It's just- I think it's time for me to get back to the tower, super hero stuff and all that."
Ned looked at Peter confused.
"Do Avengers have like a bed-time or something?"
Peter couldn't help but chuckle slightly.
"Not exactly, but I still probably shouldn't be out past dark without telling anyone."
Ned seemed convinced by Peter's response, however MJ seemed to see right through him.
"What are you not telling us Parker?" She spoke while crossing her arms.
Ned looked confusingly towards him.
"What does she mean? Are you not telling us something?"
Peter fake scoffed and tried his best for a convincing smile.
"Whaaaaaahhh? Nooooo, I'm not hiding  anything, I would never hide anything from my best friends."
This time even Ned seemed unconvinced by Peter's statement as he joined MJ in standing still with his arms crossed.
"Okay," MJ began.
"Spill. What's the real reason your suddenly so anxious to leave?"
"Yeah man," Ned butted in.
"Weren't we planning to go to MJ's after this and have a nice dinner?"
