Morgan Stark and Harley Keener stepped into Midtown High with all the confidence in the world. The buzz in the halls was immediate—Tony Stark’s daughter and another kid rumored to be working with the Avengers were now walking the same halls as everyone else. Peter had expected the attention, but it still made him cringe a little, especially when Flash Thompson wouldn’t stop gaping at Morgan like she’d just landed from another planet.

“Looks like you’ve already stolen the show,” Peter muttered as they walked through the crowded halls.

“Of course,” Morgan grinned, flipping her hair playfully. “You didn’t expect me to blend in, did you?”

Harley chuckled, nudging Peter. “Come on, man, this is going to be fun. Think of all the chaos we can cause together.”

Peter just shook his head, but despite himself, he couldn’t help feeling excited. Having Morgan and Harley here made everything feel a little more… normal, even though nothing about their lives was actually normal. Midtown High was about to get a lot more interesting.

Five Months Later

Time flew by, and the once-new kids, Morgan and Harley, had seamlessly integrated into life at Midtown High. Peter had grown used to their presence, and their trio had become inseparable, with Ned and MJ rounding out the group. Flash still gave Peter side-eye, but there was no more doubt in his mind—Peter Parker wasn’t the ‘loser’ he’d once thought.

Peter’s relationship with MJ had only deepened during those months. It felt natural, like they had been meant to be together all along. They shared quiet moments between classes, study sessions in the library, and late-night web-slinging adventures when MJ wanted to tag along.

Life was good. Peter was finally balancing school, his personal life, and his duties as Spider-Man. Little did he know, a much bigger conversation was brewing behind the scenes.

At the Avengers Compound

Tony Stark sat across from Steve Rogers in the main living room of the Avengers Compound, casually sipping his coffee while Steve flipped through some papers. The sun was setting outside, casting a soft orange glow across the room. Tony leaned back in his chair, rubbing his chin thoughtfully.

“So, I’ve been thinking…” Tony started, his voice casual but with a certain seriousness underneath.

Steve raised an eyebrow, glancing up from his papers. “That usually means something big.”

Tony smirked. “You know me too well.” He set his coffee down and leaned forward. “It’s about Peter. And MJ.”

Steve’s brow furrowed slightly. “What about them?”

“Well,” Tony began, choosing his words carefully, “they’ve been together for a while now, and they’re… solid. I mean, really solid. They’ve got that thing, you know? The way I see it, they’re practically already a married couple. I was thinking maybe it’s time to make it official.”

Steve looked surprised. “You’re talking about… marriage?”

Tony nodded, his expression serious. “Why not? Peter’s mature, he’s responsible, and he’s handled more than most people ever will in their entire lives. And MJ? She’s perfect for him. Strong, smart, keeps him grounded. They’re a good match. I think it’s time we give them the chance to make it official. I’ll support them financially, emotionally—whatever they need.”

Steve considered it. “You think Peter’s ready for something that big? Marriage is a huge step, especially for someone his age.”

Tony shrugged. “I know it’s early. They’re young, sure. But with everything they’ve been through, I don’t think age is the issue. If they love each other and they’re committed, why wait? I want Peter to have the stability and happiness he deserves. And I think MJ can give him that.”
