I was having the time of my life. I had no adults around me telling me what to do and that I'm "just a kid" all the time. Im 24. I'll admit, Im really drunk right now but I feel amazing so im not complaining.
I decide that I want more shots so I order another round and down them. Feeling confident I go up to a girl.
"Wanna dance?" I ask putting my hand out
She looks at me up and down, she grabs my hand and I walk her tj the dance floor.

I dance with her for a good few minutes before I see a familiar red headed woman. He excused himself from the dance and stumbles towards her.
"Heyyy Tasha" he says slurring his speech
"Are you drunk?"
"Very, why?"
"We're going home." She starts dragging his by his ear and
"Ow ow ow ow Tasha what are you doing?" He asks
She doesn't answer but signals the rest of the avengers to follow her.
They all get outside and push peter in a seat.
The car ride was quiet
Peter was sitting there happily finishing the bottle of tequila he got from somewhere. The avengers taking notice snatch it out of his hands.
"Oi what the fuck is that for!" He raised his voice
The avengers were taken back by his tone of voice but acted as if it didn't scare them.
Steve and Bucky carried peter up into the common room where they all sat in a circle around him.
"So Peter, tell me why the fuck were you at a night club getting wasted?" Tony asked in his "Dont-piss-me-off-more" voice
"Having a good time?" He said with a duh voice
"Jesus Christ peter why the fuck where you at a bar when you're 24 years old!" Steve yelled
"EXACTLY, IM 24 YEARS OKD IVE BEEN A LEGAL ADULT FOR 7 YEARS. ALL OF YOU TREAT ME LIKE IM THE NERDY SWEET BOY I WAS WHEN I WAS IN MY TEENS. WELL GUESS WHAT, PEOPLE GROW UP AND YOU ALL NEED TO UNDERSTAND THAT. IM TRYING TO LIVE MY LIFE TO ITS FULLEST AND ALL OF YOU DRAGGING ME AWAY FROM IT JUST PROVES THAT YOU DONT TRUST ME. I WAS FINE DANCING WITH THAT HOT GIRL AND HAVING SHOTS WITH STRANGERS. YOU ALL BABY ME LIKE IM A PIECE OF GLASS THAT WILL SHATTER UNDER YOUR FINGERS. JESUS CHRIST LET ME LIVE!"
Peter angrily walked out of the room going god knows where.
He left them all stunned
Did they really stop them from living his life?
Were we babying him?
Is he really not that sweet boy we used to know?
What happened?
"The kids got a point" Bruce said from across the room. He had just finished working in his lab when he over heard the argument amongst them.
"You guys always baby him and he's aloud to do whatever he wants but you guys hovering over him like helicopter parents doesn't help. You need to remember that he practically never had parents. He's used to being able to do what he wants because he never got disciplined. Yet he still became a self respecting man. You guys need to understand that he has grown up since he was 16. He's more than capable to look after himself and you need to realise that." After Bruce's inspiring speech he walked out.
"We fucked up didnt we?" Clint says
"Yup" Sam whispers
"Fuck were we really babying him?" Tony said with confusing written on his face
"Looking beck at it yeah. I saw him dancing with that girl and he'd looked the happiest I've seen him in years." Natasha said
Everyone looked down.
They were screwed
