School was hell on Thursday. Since today is bring your kid to work day, teachers crammed as much as they could yesterday with a lot of people going to be absent and their own kids coming today to interrupt class time.

Peter decided to meet Bucky at his workplace in Brooklyn. Bucky insisted on picking him up but Peter needed time to himself on the way over.

Wade told him he's worrying about nothing but Peter ignored him. That was until Wade suggested hacking into the works database and finding out who these people are. He did just that the night before.

The boss is Caleb Fernz. He has a wife Margo who is a vet at a local animal hospital and a son Vance who is only two years older than Peter making him seventeen. He goes to Brooklyn public high school and is on the soccer team. Caleb and Margo have been married for twenty years, their twenty first coming up in a couple of months. Caleb has a sister name Eliza and two living parents Judy and Joseph Fernz. Eliza works at a business company, Judy is unemployed, and Joseph is a doctor.

Bucky has two coworkers. Peter found that a bit odd because usually mechanic shops have more so he did some digging and saw how small the shop was so it makes sense.

The older coworkers name is Henry Baker. His wife Zoey died three years ago leaving him with their son Oliver. He's twelve years old and is on a lacrosse club team. They also live in Brooklyn and Oliver attends the public elementary school. Henry has two moms, Ellen and Rachel. Henry was adopted out of the system at age two because his birth parents died in a car crash. Ellen works at a bakery and Rachel is a fashion designer.

The youngest coworker is Daniel Justice. He has a wife Sophia who is a stay at home mom and they've been married for sixteen years. They have a daughter Nadine who just turned fifteen yesterday. She cheers and is on the gymnastics team. She also attends Brooklyn public high school. Daniel has no other siblings and only his dad isn't around. His moms name is Tabitha Justice and she works as a dental hygienist. 

Peters thoughts gets snapped away as a car honks at some people with their cameras out in the street. Peter immediately knew they were either tourists or filming a YouTube channel or it could be both.

He walks a couple more blocks until he sees the shop. He hears Buckys heart beat and goes around the shop to the back to see Bucky laying under a red car.

"I hope that's not Lightning McQueen" Peter jokes.

Bucky leans to his left, poking his head out from under the car.

"Hey Pete!" Bucky greets with a smile before ducking back under the car and rolling himself out.

"Shouldn't you get back to that?" Peter asks.

"I will in a minute, I started a bit early. I want you to meet my boss, coworkers, and their kids. They're just inside so come on" Bucky claims before leading Peter inside through a back door.

They walk in a little hall passing two bathrooms and an office before reaching the front to see three adults and three kids.

"You must be Peter! I'm Caleb, it's so good to finally meet you! I heard you're the one who decorated his arm" Caleb greets.

"Yeah, I did. It's nice to meet you too" Peter replies.

"Peter, that is my boss Caleb and his son Vance. That's Henry and his son Olivier and that's Daniel and his daughter Nadine" Bucky introduces.

"Nadine's the same age as you and Vance is seventeen. Oliver over there is eleven" Daniel informs. "Maybe after lunch you kids can do some activities or something."

Thankfully a costumer walks in, saving Peter because he does not want to do that. Bucky takes Peter away, guiding him back out so Bucky can work on the car.
