"Mr. Stark... I don't feel so good.." Peter said, looking from his hands to me, seeking for reassurance. Confusion and worry filled his eyes.
"You're alright." I assured him although, I had my doubts.
"I don't know what's happening.. I don't know--" He stumbled towards me as I caught him in my arms. He didn't ever want to let go.
"I don't wanna go.. I don't wanna go!" He said repeatedly as I held onto him tightly. I didn't want to let go of him even though none of us knew what was happening to him. "Mr. Stark, please... please..." He pleaded. I could feel my heart breaking as he said each word. I tried to pin him down on the ground to prevent anything from happening to him. He looked toward the sky as if accepting his fate, death. He slowly looked at me with all his might and mumbled the words,
"I'm sorry."
And with that, Peter slowly disintegrated and turned into ash. The closest person I ever had as a son was slowly slipping away from me.
**A couple days after that**
That memory keeps replaying in my mind. Even when I'm asleep, it becomes one of my nightmares. I haven't even told May about this yet. I'm so afraid that she's going to worry too much and I just can't put all that weight onto her shoulders. The thought of her thinking that Peter might've died because of some stunt he pulled. Or that he may never come back again. I can't let her think of that. I'll do everything in my power to bring Peter back. Anything, just to bring him back. Whatever it takes.
