Peter made his way out of the bathroom, he had just gotten out of the shower, and was in his pj's. Just a white shirt and sweatpants. He went to turn the Christmas tree lights off so as to not waste electricity. Once that was done he made his way to his room.

He stopped midway to his room when he heard a slight knock at the front door, he grabbed his phone from his pocket and checked the time

9:47, who the hell could've been knocking at the door at this time

Peter opened the door, seeing the beaten figure of Aiden at his doorstep. He had a bruise on his eye and cheeks. There was blood running down his nose and on his shirt. He was still wearing the outfit Peter and May dropped him off the other day in.

"Aiden?!"

Aiden collapsed into Peters arms, Peter held tight onto Aiden, wrapping his arms around him as Aiden sobbed uncontrollably

"I-It's okay, I'm here..." Peter said, confusedly, but comforting.

Peter lead Aiden inside as he shut the door, he sat Aiden on the couch as Aunt May came out of her room half asleep

"What's-" Aunt May gasped, seeing Aiden on the couch. "Aiden? God, what happened!" She shouted as she ran over

Aiden didn't respond

"Oh god..." She looked to Peter, he looked just as worried and confused as she did.

"Stay put, I'll be back in a second." She said, running to the kitchen.

Peter sat next to Aiden, one arm around the boys shoulder.

Aunt May came back with an ice pack wrapped in a wash cloth, Aiden took it, holding it up to where it hurt the most. He winced as the cold pack hit his face.

"I-I'm so sorry." Aiden finally spoke, his voice breaking.

"Hey. You have nothing to be sorry for. Remember what I said?" May said as Aiden nodded, but he still felt horrible for causing such a scene.

"Aiden," Peter began hesitantly, "what happened?"

There was a moment of silence. A heavy, thick silence. Aiden was hesitant to say anything. Peter thought maybe he was jumped.

'M-My Dad." He managed to get out. Just those words alone killed everyone in the room.

Peters face fell as May held a hand to over her mouth.

"Did- Did he do this to you?" Peter asked

Aiden nodded, looking down at the floor, as May breathed another "oh my god."

Aiden took a deep breath, doing the breathing technique Peter showed him as Spider-Man that day on the roof. Peter noticed, smiling that Aiden remembered.

Aiden calmed down enough to speak more clearly.

"He's been, violent, ever since Mom died. There's no one else around, so he takes his anger out on me. Before Mom got sick I-"
