Okay, so, Tony has come up to me, asking if I want to go with him to find a teenage boy with spider powers.

The hell you think I'm gonna say?

Hell yeah, dude.

We just made it to his apartment in Queens. Tony knocks and a very good-looking woman opens the door with a loud gasp and smile.

She very excitedly invites us in, telling us her name is May. Tony and her take the couch and I stand over in the corner, keeping a straight face even though I am very excited to meet the spider boy.

Peter, the boy, isn't here at the moment so, instead, May talks our ear off about him and her job and other things. She's very talkative but, she's nice so, it don't matter.

"Hey, May." Peter greets as he steps in, not even looking over here yet.

Ah, cute boy.

Mhmm.

"Hey." May turns to him. "How was school today?"

"It was okay. This crazy car parked outside."

He turns and just stares at Tony, who I know is definitely smirking right now.

"Oh, Mr. Parker." Tony turns to him and I hold down a smile.

"Um." He takes his earbuds out. "Wha-What're you do- Hey. Uh, I-I'm-I'm Peter."

Oh, he's adorable.

"Tony."

"What are you-What are you doing here?"

"It's about time we met. You've been getting my emails, right?"

"Yeah? Yeah. Regarding the..."

"You didn't tell me about the grant." May says.

"About the grant." Peter confusedly continues.

"The September Foundation." Tony says.

"Right."

"Yeah. Remember when you applied?"

"Yeah."

Oh, poor boy's so confused.

"I approved so, now we're in business."

"But, you didn't tell me anything." May shakes her head. "What's up with that? You keeping secrets from me now?"

Oooh.

"W-I just-I just now how much you love surprises so I thought I would let you know... Anyway, what did I apply for?"

"That's what I'm here to hash out." Tony nods.

"Okay. Hash-hash it out, okay."

Alright, I swear, these stutters are just absolutely adorable.

His voice is, too.

What the frack?

"It's so hard for me to believe that she's someones aunt." Tony motions to May.

"Oh my goodness." I whisper and Peter looks at me for a second with a small smile before turning back to Tony.

Oh, dear god.

I think I have a crush on the spider boy.

Tony's gonna kill me.

"Yeah, well, they come in all shapes and sizes, you know?" May chuckles and Peter gives them a 'what's going on? I don't like this' look.

"This walnut date loaf is exceptional."

"Let me just stop you there." Peter put his hand up and I smile. "Is this grant got money involved or whatever? No?"
