Holy fucking shit.

The ghost. The whole gang. They're all children.
They're all his age.

And they kidnapped him.

What are the fucking odds.

Peter's face turned pale in an instant, making Josh burst out laughing uncontrollably and the rest giggle.
"We won't hurt you man" caleb said calmly through a smirk, throwing his arm over his girlfriend's shoulder.

God peter just knew Natasha would be so pleased to know the leader is a girl.

"And we don't use any of the cheap shit that we sell" Noah added with a shrug.

"No cheap shit" Lily repeated, getting her head gently pushed by Tommy in response.

Peter quickly cleared his throat and shook his head, forcing himself back to normal "I'm just surprised to see that the biggest gang in the city are all kids my age"

"Everyone go back to your chores. Peter you can come with me to your room" you said after a couple of laughs and stood up, waiting for Peter to follow you.

His room? You got him a whole room for himself now?

Peter couldn't be more shocked when he walked into the room that was his now. The bed was neatly covered in navy blue sheets with baby blue pillows, he had a few pairs of jeans and t shirts on the small desk that was next to the bed, alongside with what he recognized as the clothes he got here with, he had a small Yoda Lego on the frame of his bed, which he assumed the shy kid, Aiden gifted him. On the wall next to he bed he saw the picture of him and May taped, making him smile faintly when his chest warmed up with thoughts of her. God he missed her.
The room was more than he could ever asked for. He had his own space, his own bed, his own everything.

"You're going to thank everyone. They all made sure this room will suit you" You said and broke the silence after a little while, leaning against the small desk now.

Peter nodded "I was going to. Thank you again for letting me stay here. I know it's not easy to trust just a random stranger."

When you shook your head and turned to leave Peter could see a small tattoo through the short sleeve of your shirt.

001

Peter wondered what it meant, because he has seen numbers on arms and it was never a good sign. But Natasha had a similar one on the same place on her biceps. Only she had a different number.

Hm.

"KARAOKE NIGHT EVERYONE" Sam yelled happily, holding a small fake microphone before turning on the TV "whoever got the smallest dick us first so-" she grinned and threw the mic at Josh "J.B you go first"

"Ha ha ha" josh rolled his eyes and shook his head after he catched the mic, flicking Sam's forehead as he walks past her next to the TV "are you ready to get your minds blown?" He said into the mic, getting claps from lily and Tommy while the rest shook their heads with laughs "bet ya'll couldn't do it.... WITHOUT ME"

Peter stood behind the couch in silence, looked at the whole scene.
It was way too confusing and way too complicated now.
They're the biggest gang in NYC why would they let him in after only three days? Why everyone were children here and how the hell did you all managed to scare even the Avengers.
Peter wondered what should he do next. Is it worth dying over that? Because he he'd call Tony the group would find out and kill him before anyone gets there. On the other hand, staying in as a spy could be smarter. He could find the core of everything, of who's your main drug supplier, why are you doing whatever you're doing because this house, if you can even call this place a house, didn't look like a billion of dollars like you stole.
The answer was obvious. He's going to spy and get some more useful information, and then, after a little while, he'd run away and call for help, by that time everything would be taken care off.
Yes. Its a good plan. Definitely.

"Peter what song do you want to sing?" A small tug of his shirt cut his mind short. He looked down to find lily giving him a cheesy smile with a few missing teeth "what's your favorite song? Mine is a song Tommy won't let me sing so I just sing shake it off"

Peter couldn't help bit laugh softly and pretend to think "what do you think I should sing?"

"Oh you should sing with me! Then I'll get an extra song!!" And before peter could accept of deny her offer, he was already dragged to the living room "I WANT LOVE IS AN OPEN DOOR TO SING WITH PETER"

****

They made a welcome cake for peter and burgers (to his (definitely lily's) request) for dinner with homemade French fries and ice cream for dessert.

Peter couldn't complain.
Weirdly, he's been out with those people for only a couple of hours but he already felt comfortable, which was a hard thing for peter to feel with his awkwardness. Those people were just so easy and peter didn't really get and judgmental energy from any of them. It was weirdly comforting.

"Eveyone say goodnight to Aiden and lily" Sam said as she waved to everyone while gently pushing lily towards her room, waiting for Aiden to quickly follow them.

You watched peter as he waved at the twins, giving them a sweet smile.
Everyone loved him in such a click. It'd be a shame to kill him if he's a backstabbing bitch.
It seemed like he and Aiden had a connection to your surprise. Aiden was the hardest of everyone, even Josh with his sassy ass, Aiden was still the hardest one to get to and yet you saw him and peter talking quietly during dinner, talking about what you assumed star wars.

"Yo P you want a beer?" Noah asked as he grabbed five beers, looking at peter as he holds up a sixth one.

"I don't drink. Thank you" he nodded politely, shaking his head.

"Pfft no one check id's here man but suit yourself" noah nodded and brought the five beers to the table giving one to you first and then Josh, caleb and sam before he sat on the sink, taking in a deep breath.

Tommy was already was asleep on the couch and jojo was next to her, nodding off slowly too.

"So Peter how was your first day here hm? Who's your favorite?" Sam flashed a cheeky smile at him as she took a sip from her beer.

"Is it me? I'm gonna close my eyes and point at me if it's me" noah said and closed both of his eyes before opening one, making peter laugh.

He could see similarities in each one of the people to people from his life.
Josh was cocky and has the same humor as Pietro, Tommy and Caleb were like Wanda and vision, the calm parent- like couple, jojo reminded him of Carol with her facial expression, sam was a combination of Tony and Mariah in a weird way and Noah was definitely the child of Scott and Sam wilson.
But you. You were like bucky and Natasha, but the bucky and Natasha he met at the airport back when he was fifteen. It was a bit too odd.

"You okay man?" He felt a nudge on his shoulder from now he see, caleb.

Peter nodded softly and took a sip of his water "you guys remind me a lot of my friends from back home that's all."
