Percy Jackson and the Avengers {DISCONTINUED}

Chapter 23

Percy POV
I saw Fury and he was...well furious. He seemed to be yelling at Uncle Bruce which just set me on edge. Uncle Bruce noticed me and turned to Fury and said something and he paled a bit. I guess my reputation is known and feared by everyone. "Percy?" I turned towards James. "Hey." I waved and walked over, "Wait, I'm dangerous." He put his hands up to keep me away. "You're not dangerous. I don't know who told you that, but don't believe them." He nodded slowly but I could tell he wanted me to stay away. When Fury came back in I stopped him before he could leave, "Did you tell him he was dangerous?" My voice was deathly calm, "Yes. Because he attacked you." I just stared, "No he cuddled me." I swear I tried me hardest not to laugh. I managed not to, and Fury was taken back by my response. Uncle Bruce and James snorted. "Um. He still didn't let you go. He does still have Hydra in his head and you were on the Winter Soldiers hit list. Probably because of what you could do. They wanted to get rid of you, before we could find you. Thing is, they couldn't find you." I huffed, "I've never even knew they existed! How can they know about know about me?" I sat down on a table beside Uncle Bruce. "Same, how we knew about you. We have tabs on every person. Whether they were just born or whether they died a few seconds ago. We have people everywhere just like they do." I nodded. "Well, he's not dangerous so you can let him go." He just nodded and left. Uncle Bruce went over and started taking the wires off of him. "Cuddle? Really?" James asked once he was set free of 'those cursed wires!' In James' words. "Well, at first that's what I thought you were doing so I just went with it. After five minutes of asking to be set free and you just holding on tighter, we got worried." He nodded, "Okay." Then he left. Geez, everyone just leaves without a word! "Percy, I wan-" Uncle Bruce was cut off by JARVIS, "Percy. You need to come to the living room." I looked at Uncle Bruce and he just shrugged so we headed to the den.

Bruce POV
Great timing JARVIS. I thought. We reached the den and Percy stopped dead. I looked to what made him stop. It was Nico, the son of Hades that came by a few days after Percy arrived. "Who is thi-" Tony was cut off by Percy running straight at Nico. Nico being considerably shorter managed to keep them up straight and not fall over. "Idiot." Was heard a few times along with a long line of curses in Greek. "Percy? Are. Are you crying?" Clint stepped forward tentatively. He's never seen him cry except once after a nightmare. "Have you been acting like the tough guy?" Nico pulled away and Percy smiled sheepishly. After Percy stopped crying, Nico introduces himself. "Nico Di Angelo, son of Hades, The ghost king." Percy snorted at the last bit, "It's actually official now you jerk." That just made him laugh harder. "Wait, there's more of you?" Tony asked. Well yelled. Nico just rolled his eyes. "Camp Half blood? Jupiter?" His mouth made an 'O' shape. "Is this the guy when you busted in Bruce's lab wanting to find then I teased you about them you pinned me against the wall with a knife to my neck?" Tony rushed. Percy just nodded. "You did what? Percy, you need to make friends. We have enough enemies." Natasha stiffened. Wanda gasped. Clint paled. Peter looked upset. "Nico is staying here." Tony groaned, "This isn't a place for your people's friends! It's the Avengers Tower!" Nico brightened, "What? Where's Captain America?" Steve stepped up from the couch, "Here!" He called. Nico cracked a smile, "Nico, I'm also from your time." It took a second before Steve understood. "What? How?" Nico's smile just got bigger, "I got stuck in a time altering hotel for seventy years." Steve smiled also. They left talking about whatever. "Knew he would like him." Percy just looked at their retreating backs. He had a longing in his eyes. I wonder if Percy likes him? Does Percy even like guys? "I guess he'll want to stay with you?" Tony sighed. Percy nodded. Then he abruptly turned to me, "Wait, What were you going to ask me?" I shook my head, "I'll tell you later." I wheeled myself to my room. I got to my desk and pulled out some papers. Percy's adoption papers. "Bruce, you got to tell him." I jumped. "Clint! I've told you not to sneak up on me!" He didn't smile but held a very serious face, "Bruce." I sighed, "I've wanted to adopt him for a while. I had to go to court and fight for him because Paul's family wanted him even though Paul said I could adopt him. It took about seven hours and I won. I've signed all the papers I just need Percy. I really love him. It's just...he's had three different dads and one still is his dad but he needs someone that won't leave him. I want to be that but I don't know if I can be that." Clint blinked. I sighed, "Nice talk." I wheeled myself to the bathroom and locked the door behind me. I just sat in there. Not wanting to move. After ten minutes of silence Clint knocked on the door, "Bruce, I'm sorry. I was thinking. I didn't mean to offend you." Silence. Silence. "It's okay." I whispered, "You didn't offend me." I took my glasses off and rubbed my eyes, "Then can you unlock the door?" I cracked a smile and put my glasses back on. "JARVIS." I heard a click. Then Clint yelled, "Percy! Wait." What! Percy? I opened the door and found Clint looking at Percy awkwardly and Percy at my desk. He had papers in his hands. Nico popped his head in, "Percy?" Percy half yelled, "Nows not the time. Please tell everyone that Clint Bruce and I will be a while." He whispered the last sentence. Nico looked at me then left. Percy kept looking at the papers. "Is. Is this what you were going to ask me?" His voice was barely audible. I wheeled up next to Clint, "Yes." I knew there was no point in lying. He would just get mad. "How...um, how long...have you had these?" He turned to me with tears in his eyes. "I had them before I was kidnapped. I fought for you in court. Just before. Paul's family also wanted you." His tears spilled over, "You...you love me...me? Enough to adopt me?" He said 'me' like he was some disease that killed. "Of course." He set the papers down then backed up and sat on the bed. "Clint?" Clint blushed, "Uh, no. I'm not. And no I haven't." I furrowed my eyebrows. "What?" Percy stood. "I will gladly become a Banner." I smiled like an idiot. "I'm glad." He tumbled into my lap and held on to my neck. "You know, I've never had anyone want me. Not the way you do. Yeah, Paul, was great, but he sometimes was wary around me. You're not." I hugged back. "Now, I think you and Clint apparently have something to talk about so I'll leave you to it." I wheeled out to the kitchen. I was still smiling like an idiot.
