Peter vs reality

7-I know

I start swinging away from the tower. I know I should have been resting but I couldn't stand another minute stuck in that room. I kept swinging on my webs for about 10 minutes before landing on another tall building roof.

Rain clouds start moving in as I sit down and let my legs dangle. I pulled my mask off to feel the wind brush past my hair. The cool wind was amazing and calming.

A couple minutes pass before it's starts raining.

NAT POV
I went to go check on Pete again as he hasn't come out yet and was being very quiet. I knocked on the door slightly.
"Peter, are you coming out? We are all gonna watch a movie?" I ask trying to convince him.

After a while and still no reply I get FRIDAY to unlock the door. I walk in and look around. Nothing, no one. I go to the bathroom which the door was open and the window was open as well. Of course he had. I immediately knew he left.

I rush back to the common room where everyone was sitting on their phones.
"Guys, suit up" I say while grabbing my belt and knives.
"What? Why?" Clint asks confused.
"Peter left, again and he isn't fully healed and..."
"Nat calm down, we will all go look around the city and we will find him" tony says reassuringly.
I just nod as we all rush out of the building. We split up in pairs and go. I was with Bucky.

PETERS POV
The rain was getting harder so I pulled down my mask for warmth. I didn't ming the stinging sensation coming from my arms. I knew they wouldn't have fully healed yet, especially when I haven't eaten a lot.With KAREN disabled I didn't have a heater available. That was on down side to my amazing hacking skills. May and Matthew are probably waiting for me to come home just so they can end me. Ever since may found out that Matthew was abusing me, I guess she just joined in.

As the storm continues I hear a rather loud thud behind me. I turn slightly to see Bucky. I knew it was him from the outline of his metal arm.

"Hey Pete, we have been looking for you"
Now I just felt guilty for making them look for me i the rain.
"I even left Nat because she kept ranting" he added.
Of course that was funny as I knew Nat would murder him later.

Bucky walked over and sat down next to me. I was tired already so I Leaned my head on his shoulder as hail started coming down. As it hits my arms I flinch with every sting. Bucky must of noticed. "Ready to get back home?" Bucky questioned.
"I guess, can we go slowly though?" I replied
"Of course kid, let's just walk and maybe get some ice cream"
"I would like that, thanks Bucky."
"Anytime"
We got off the roof and started walking the cold empty streets. We needed up stopping and getting ice cream. Bucky got a banana cream flavour and I got cookie dough. Delicious. We continued walking as the hail stopped. It was still raining but it felt good.

We stopped outside the tower and just stood there waiting for me to be ready for a lot of questions.
"Ready?" Bucky asked patiently.
"No, but I don't think will change any time soon so let's just get it over with"
We walk in and go straight up in the elevator. I'm glad FRIDAY hasn't said anything about my cuts. Because I knew that if Bucky wasn't there she would have asked about them. I must have Been so in my own thoughts that I hadn't realised the elevator door opened and Bucky walk out.
"Peter?" I hear him say.
"Hmm" I reply
"I've been saying your name like 10 times" Bucky adds. His voice full of concern.
"Oh sor-"
Bucky cut me off before I could finish. "Stop apologising it is FINE" clearly annoyed.
I let a loud sneeze before walking into the common room. Steve and tony are talking in the kitchen while Nat, Wanda, Thor, Bruce, Clint and vision all sat watching tv. They didn't even notice as Bucky flopped onto the spare couch cushion next to them.

"Hey underoos" Tony says after realising they are finally back.
"Where were you? Are you okay? Why did you leave? How did you get out?" All the questions started swarming from everyone. My thoughts got louder as I curled myself into a circle on the floor. They hate you, you are in big trouble, they are gonna hit you, they are gonna punish you, may will won't to abuse you more, may needs you him to kill you, she is gonna kill you, the avengers hate you, Matthew and may are gonna beat you up so bad, they are gonna end up killing you, they hate you, they hate you, they hate you, they hate you.
I start hyperventilating and struggling to say anything.
"I...c...can't....bre...breathe" I manage to say after stuttering continuously.
Tony immediately kneels down and hug me. The others start backing up, Steve brings me water and sits me up. Mr stark and Steve are the only ones still the room by the time I calm down.

"I'm so...so sorry" I say before the realisation hits me again. "I have to go, may!" I yell as I run back to the elevator and sling my bag over one shoulder. "Wait" I could hear Steve yell for me to wait and talk but I couldn't stay away from 'home' any longer. I hate calling it home knowing home is meant to be somewhere where you feel safe and loved. I realise I haven't been there for a few days so may and her boyfriend will probably not take it easy on me.

I run through the streets as he rain continues. The avengers hate you, you are worthless, an embarrassment, fraud, may is going to kill me. The thoughts spiral in my head as I reach the apartment building. My phone starts ringing and I grab it out of my pocket to see that Mr stark had tried to ring me many times. I quickly send a text directly to him.

Mr stark:
Peter: Hey Mr stark, sorry I left I'm a rush I remembered my aunt wanted me home for a movie night.

That was the quickest lie I could think of. Of course Mr stark would know he was living but he never pushed. Running up the stairs my heart starts pumping faster and faster. I slowly reach the apartment room and slowly open the door. I open it to see aunt may and Matthew sitting on some chairs pointed towards the door as if they had been waiting for me. As if she knew I would return tonight.
