The plane began its descent, the sprawling city below illuminated by the glow of the setting sun. After a long week in Wakanda, Peter and Morgan were finally back, ready to reunite with their family. The anticipation in the air was palpable, and even though the jet wasn’t landing at Stark Tower, the thought of being home made Peter’s heart race.

As the jet touched down at the private airport, Peter glanced over at Morgan, who was leaning back in her seat with a tired yet satisfied smile.

“Finally home,” Morgan said with a sigh, stretching her arms.

Peter grinned, grabbing his backpack. “Yeah. Feels like it’s been forever. I just want to hold the twins... and MJ. God, I’ve missed her so much.”

The Dynamic Six gathered their belongings, each of them buzzing with the excitement of returning home. Harley, seated next to Peter, yawned before standing up.

“Do you think Dad and Pops will have one of those massive family dinners waiting for us?” Harley asked, rubbing his eyes.

Morgan laughed. “Knowing them? Definitely. Dad probably spent all day making sure everything’s perfect.”

As they stepped off the jet, the familiar figures of Bucky and Rhodey greeted them on the tarmac.

“There they are!” Rhodey called out, waving enthusiastically. “How was Wakanda? Did Shuri drive you all crazy with her tech?”

Morgan smirked. “Shuri’s awesome. But yeah, she might’ve overloaded Harley with ideas for new projects.”

Harley rolled his eyes. “She’s brilliant, okay? I can’t help it if we clicked.”

Bucky chuckled, ruffling Morgan’s hair as she approached. “Glad you’re back, kid. The tower’s been too quiet without you and Peter around.”

Rhodey stepped forward, clapping a hand on Peter’s shoulder. “And your parents have been counting down the minutes. Tony’s pacing was driving me insane.”

Peter chuckled nervously. “Yeah, I figured they’d be anxious. It’s been a long week.”

The group piled into the waiting SUV, Bucky taking the driver’s seat while Rhodey sat beside him. The ride back was filled with laughter and stories, Morgan animatedly recounting their escapades in Wakanda while Harley and Peter chimed in with their own highlights.

As they pulled up to the Stark family home, Peter felt a rush of emotion. The sight of the warm, welcoming glow from the windows made his chest tighten. He barely waited for the car to stop before he was out, making a beeline for the door.

Inside, the twins’ cries echoed faintly, and Peter’s heart swelled.

“They’re home!” Tony’s voice called out, and moments later, the door swung open to reveal him and Steve.

Tony immediately pulled Morgan into a hug, his expression a mix of relief and joy. “About time, Miss Stark. Wakanda’s great, but it’s not home.”

Steve moved to Peter, enveloping him in a warm embrace. “You look exhausted, but happy. How was it?”

Peter smiled, his voice soft. “Incredible. But I’m so glad to be back.”

Morgan joined Peter, grinning as she hugged Steve. “Pops, where are Joey and Max? I heard them crying.”

Tony smirked, gesturing toward the living room. “With MJ. They’ve been keeping her... very busy.”

Peter hurried toward the sound of his children, his heart racing. The sight that greeted him nearly brought tears to his eyes—MJ was sitting on the couch, cradling Joey, while Max was fussing in the bassinet beside her. She looked up, her face lighting up the moment she saw him.
