It was Saturday. Finally the weekend. No school and just time to relax... or so Peter thought.

Peter has had a rough week, he's desperately needs a break and relax, but his brain tells him otherwise.

~

'I should come out to the Avengers today' the boy thought to himself. He been having the same reoccurring thought for about a month, but usually it'd be; 'I should come out to the Avengers soon'. The thought changed from 'soon' to 'today'... PANIC.
~
Peter's thoughts were rushing around his head frantically in a panicked frenzy, as he led in bed contemplating life. He took a deep breath and got out of bed to get changed and distract his mind.

He threw on a pair of blue baggy jeans, binder, t-shirt, and black hoodie. The boy brushed his teeth and brushed his hair before sticking it up into a beanie. Peter then headed towards the kitchen for breakfast.

~

Peter's plate of scrambled eggs on toast, sat in front of him untouched as his thoughts took over and sirens rang in his head. He was panicking. He knew that he was going to come out today, he just felt it. The boy was scared, worried and had no plan.

"Earth to Penny" Tony said as he snapped his fingers in front of the girls face. Penny blinked a couple of times before responding. "Huh?" "You gonna eat your breakfast or just stare at it?" "Oh. Uh yeah" Penny said embarrassed, then started to eat her food.
~
Nat was watching the boy suspiciously. She knew something was wrong, but just could pinpoint what it was.
~
Nat walked over to the kitchen, before getting a plate of scrambled eggs and sitting next to Peter. "Are you OK?" Peter was again bought out of his thoughts. "Uh, yeah. Yeah, I'm fine" he hesitantly answered. "We'll talk about it after breakfast" Nat said. Peter nodded and the pair finished their breakfast in a comfortable silence.

~

"So, what's up?" Natashed asked softly as the pair entered Peter's room for privacy. "Well, I uh. I don't know whether to- um," Peter took a deep breathe before trying to answer the question again, "I think that I'm gonna, uh, come out to the others today?" The said in a hesitant question type of way. "That's great Peter! Remember you don't have to, but you can if you thats what you wanna do. You got this ok" Nat smiled at him. "And if you need help or for me to just be there, you know I'll always be here for you." Peter smiled and hugged Nat. The woman wasn't much of a hugger but for Peter, she made an exception; she really had a soft spot for the kid.

Peter thought about the big decision some more and decided to tell Loki and Bruce about what he was planning to do; the more support the better.

"Hey asshole! Sam I know it was you that hit me with the blue shell!" "Language!" Steve scolded Clint as Sam just laughed and took first place. Clint threw his controller to the floor, preparing to attack Sam, when Penny, Bruce, Loki and Nat walked in.

"Hey bird brain, be careful with the controllers or I'll lock you up in the vents." Nat said sternly, glaring at Clint. The man's expression changed quickly as he mutterd a small 'sorry' and sat down.

Loki lent over to Peter and whispered: "are you sure your ready?" The shaking boy nodded. "Everyone, come sit down, Penny has something important to tell you!" Nat yelled over the bickering. All the Avenger's sat down on the sofas spread across the room, wondering what important thing Penny had to tell them. "Also, if you react badly, I won't hesitate to kill you. Slowly and painfully." Nat told the group sternly, recieving scared and anxious facial expressions.

Peter fiddled anxiously with his hands and took a deep breath. "So I, uh, um, well-" the boy looked over at Loki for help. "You can do this brother. You've got this." Loki reassured quietly, so only the pair could hear, and gave a small smile. The kid looked around the room of Avengers as a knot tied in his throat. "So, I am uh, transgender," there was a small pause as everyone processed the information. "Which means that I identify as male, and my, uh, my pr-pronouns are he/him. I-i would also like it if, uh uh, you could call me P-Peter"

A/N: How will they react? What will they think? Will this turn out OK for Peter, or will it be another Aunt May situation? Idk, and neither will you for a while. I love CLIFFHANGERS!

This was a bit of a shorter chapter but I wanted to leave you all on a cliffhanger...sorry. Hopefully my next few chapters will be a bit longer. I hope you enjoyed it and have a great day/night (or don't, idc)!
