Peter Parker had the flu, but when Spider-Man heard someone scream for help, well what was he supposed to do?

He quickly swung over and webbed the bad guy up.

"Oh it's Spider-Boy! You look bad, someone finally beat your ass?" The criminal asked.

"No, and I'd appreciate it if you'd shut the fuck up." Peter growled.

That shut him up. Peter didn't have time for his usual witty quips so after he made sure the lady was ok he turned to check on the criminal.

He had a gun pointed at Peter.

"Hey Spider-Boy! Is that fear I sense?" The criminal cooed.

"No. Drop the gun. I don't have time for this."

"Why? You got a date?"

Peter tried to web the gun to the ground but before he could, BANG!

Peter felt pain.

So. Much. Pain.

He fell to the ground holding his stomach. He distantly heard Karen calling Mr. Stark but he couldn't be sure. The next few minutes blurred together. He  remembered flying, but he couldn't fly, could he? He remembered his feet touching the ground. Natasha, wait no...  Bruce running towards him. Then blackness.

When Peter woke up his throat screamed and his head felt like someone was banging it against the wall. His flu was worse than ever. His stomach ached, but not as bad as you would expect. He probably had pain medication. He tried open his eyes but he quickly passed out again.

Finally, he woke. He felt pain everywhere. His stomach was the only thing that didn't hurt too bad. He blinked open his eyes and saw Mr. Stark sitting in a chair, eyes closed.

"Mr. S'ark?" Peter slurred.

"I'm right here buddy. I'm right here." Tony said, after waking up.

"Wha' happene'?"

"You got shot. It's ok though, Bruce fixed it up. Does it hurt?"

"No, did you give me pain me'ication?"

"Yeah. But it should be healed."

Peter blushed sheepishly.

"It's probably because I have the flu."

"What?! And you didn't think to tell me?"

"I was going to,  just not until I saved the lady."

"Wh- you know what, we'll talk about this later. You hungry?"

"Do you have soup?"

"Yep, I'll go get it ready."

Tony left and got Peter tomato soup and flu mediation.

Peter healed up quickly in two days. He knew his Dad would always, always, take care off him.
