Tony's panic attacks

New home

"Bruce, we're going to Tennessee. now. get up." Tony said. something was wrong.

"Tony?" Bruce ask sitting up. "why are we going to Tennessee?" Bruce ask.

"we're going to Rose Hill Tennessee now. a friend of mine just lost his family and he needs a place to stay." Tony said. "he called me. I told him we'd come get him." Tony added.

"friend?" Bruce ask.

"just get up." Tony said. Bruce nodded and got up quickly getting dressed. Tony headed down stairs.

"Tony you're up early." Steve said.

"friend emergency. me and Bruce are gonna go pick him up." Tony replied. "plane leaves in twenty." Tony added. they all seemed shocked.

"Tony? you care about someone other than yourself?" Natasha ask.

"he's special. reminds me of myself." Tony muttered. Bruce came down and Tony left with him quickly.

*Rose Hill Tennessee*

Bruce barley had time to step out of Tony's private plane before Tony started walking off.

"Tony where are we going?" Bruce ask.

"just come with me." Tony replied. he had a car waiting for them. Tony didn't even wait for Bruce to buckle up, he simply took off.

"Tony what is the rush?" Bruce ask.

"his family's been dead for three days, he probably hasn't eaten in three or so days." Tony replied, speeding down the roads. Bruce sat back in his seat to watch the trees pass, soon he realized they were in a poor area.

"whats his name?" Bruce ask.

"Harley. Harley Keener." Tony replied.

"should I be worried about him taking you?" Bruce teased.

"that shouldn't be a problem. also be careful he'll talk about things that make you anxious and nervous just to see the reaction it gets from you. sent me into an anxiety attack once, don't know if he really meant to do it but he did." Tony said pulling up to a shed. he stopped the car and got out. "Harley!" Tony shouted, heading inside. Bruce followed quickly. the boy was sitting on the couch holding his potato gun and his sisters Dora watch. "hey Harley." Tony said. the boy looked at him.

"they're gone. just like my dad." Harley muttered.

"I know kid." Tony sighed. Bruce cleared his throat. "Harley this is Bruce. we've come to take you to live at the tower." Tony said. Bruce waived. Harley nodded.

"I know who he is." Harley said quietly.

"go get your stuff. come on. lets get out of here." Tony said. the boy nodded and headed to get his stuff.

"Tony when you said we were coming for a friend, I thought you meant an older friend." Bruce said.

"he's thirteen and he saved my life a couple years ago. I stayed right here in this shed, I don't remember how long." Tony said. "he helped me work on the suit." Tony added.

"he's a child. we can't just take him." Bruce said. "thats kidnapping." Bruce added.

"adoption papers will go through in the morning." Tony replied. Harley came back with a few things. "come on. you'll love the tower, all the best science toys. we can fix up that potato cannon to shoot more than one potato." Tony said.

"sounds good." Harley muttered. "you still have those anxiety attacks about the black hole?" Harley ask.

"panic attacks and anxiety attacks. just choose a day of the week." Tony replied. "and don't worry about Bruce, people make him nervous." Tony added. Harley looked at Bruce.
