Peter groaned as he opened his eyes. He looked up at a white ceiling and the smell of "Medicine? Ugh i hate hospitals. Take me away." he heard chuckles and giggles making him look to the side. he saw the avenger and smiled tiredly remembering what happened "Hey." "Hey kiddo. How you feeling?" asked Tony "Just like a truck knocked me over. Wasn't that bad." he tried shrugging but winced in pain. "We'll talk about that later. You've been asleep for two days." Peters eyes widened "What!? I have to-" "No. You don't have to anything. I'm handing everything ok?" "But-" "No buts. Now sleep. you need it." as if on cue Peters eyes started feeling droopy. He tried keeping them open but was failing. Tony kissed his head "Sleep kid." Peter snuggled into the bed "Night dad." Tony grinned "Night kiddo. 

The next time Peter woke up he felt much better. He opened his eyes and sat up looking around. No-one was there. He got out of the bed and out on the clothes laid out for him before stretching. he sighed happily and left the room. When he entered the common room the noise died down and everyone stared at him. Peter smiled "Hey." Tony was the first out of his seat to hug the boy who eagerly returned it. "You're ok? Fully healed? No more pain?" Peter just grinned "I'm ok. No pain. Fully healed." "Oh thank the gods." "You're welcome." replied Thor making them laugh. They all hugged Peter checking him before the TV caught his attention. Tony's eyes widened at the report.

"Just yesterday Maybelle Parker and Damon Salvatore were arrested for child abuse and endangerment. The victim being Peter Benjamin Parker who has suffered under his Aunts care for many years. We have been informed that the boy has been taken in by none other than Tony Stark himself the owner of Stark industries. He has said to have been working with Peter for a month and confirmed the adoption yesterday at 5pm. Officially naming the boy Peter Benjamin Parker-Stark."

The TV went blank as Peter stood in shock. Tony's face came into his view and he heard everyone leave except one person, probably Steve. "Listen Pete. I wanted to tell this myself and i totally forgot about this news. I really hope you're not mad."" Peter kept staring at him "Mad? Mad?! I'm the son of Tony fucking Stark! How can i get mad?!"asked Peter grinning. Tony sighed in relief and smiled  "That's right. you're my son." he hugged the teenager tightly "My kid." they pulled back and Tony ruffled the boys hair. "The only reason I'm letting your language go is because it's a good day." said Steve coming up to them. peter blushed "Sorry." Steve smiled putting an arm around Tony's waist "it's ok. you spend a lot of time with Tony. I should've expected it." Tony gasped in mock offense "I'm hurt. Truly." "Sure." said Steve rolling his eyes and Peter giggled.

Suddenly Fury barged into the room. He eyed Peter before glaring "Why was i just told you refused to go after Spider-Man?" "Because we did." answered Tony evenly. "You have no choice Stark. This is your job on the line." Tony froze in shock. Seeing this Peter took a deep breath "They stopped looking because they found him. Hi, Peter Parker-Stark, 15 years old and Spider-Man." said Peter sticking out his hand. Steve and Tony stared at him worried. Fury stepped towards him but he kept his ground "Stark?" he seemed to remember something before his eyes softened "Why do you do this?" "What?" "Why are you a hero?" "Fury-" warned Steve

 but Peter shook his head saying it was fine " I've seen people with no powers jump in front of a bullet for a stranger, why cant i, someone who ahs the power to stop that bullet help? I got these powers at thirteen years old. I told my Uncle Ben about them. A few days later i figured out everything about what i could do. I got into trouble and Ben had to pick me up. We were driving home and got into an argument when i yelled at him. I got out of the car waking away. H-He must have come after me because i heard yelling. When i turned around a guy with mask had a gun pointed to a lady. I could've helped her. I knew that. But i was scared. Scared of hurting the man. Scared of killing him. Suddenly Ben tried getting the man away and that's when a gun shot went off. The man ran and Uncle Ben died. I ran to him and cried. His last words were 'With great power, comes great responsivity.' Uncle Ben died because of me. Because i was scared, of myself of the man and of killing him. I was scared of killing a guy who didn't think tice about killing an innocent. Director Fury...when you, when you can see what i can see, do what i can do and you don't use it to help, then that's when the bad things happen, and they happen, because of you, So I'm a hero for a selfish reason I'll admit, but i do what i do to make up for what i didn't or couldn't do before." (I'm cringing a bit actually-so emotional-so not me)

Fury smiled and left without another word. Peter sighed in relief "Man. he scares me. Right dad? dad?" Peter turned and found Tony and Steve on the verge of crying. "Dad? Steve? Are you ok?" they didn't say anything instead hugged him tightly. He smiled in confusion before hugging back "Oh wow. I like this."
