Chapter 24: the reveal

"Xavia! Where's Bruce?" I asked my AI, landing softly on the helipad of Stark tower.

"Dr Banner and Mr Odinson went to Asgard a few days ago. Did you not notice they're absence?" She spoke into my ear.

(A/N): Let's just pretend the Ragnarok shit is happening now, and Bruce went to Asgard with Thor, but got lost in Sakaar on the way there.

"Nope. Haven't been home much," I panted, running inside and to the elevator.

Happy and Pepper were away on a business trip.

That meant, we were completely alone. Vision had already taken Wanda back to the park.

Shit. I'd rather not be completely responsible for what was about to happen.

"Come on," I mumbled, frustrated as I pushed the up button on the elevator once I stepped inside, with Peter in my arms.

Peter's skin was getting paler and colder by the second, and I could barely feel his heartbeat.

Maybe I was wrong. Maybe he wouldn't be ok.

I had helped out on the medical floor before, many times. So I knew some basic things, and how to use some of the tools.

Once we reached the floor, I used my super speed to run to one of the ORs.

I placed Peter down on the table, and ran to the scrub room.

I tied up my hair, washed my hands, put on one of these apron thingies, gloves, and a mask.

Once I prepared, I grabbed some essential tools. Such as gauze, saline, a stitching kit, and a scalpel.

I quickly hooked him up to the machines, so I could see his vitals.

I used anesthesia to knock him out, and so he wouldn't feel anymore pain.

I pressed the spider on his chest to loosen the suit, and peeled it off of his body. He was left in only his boxers.

I felt my cheeks get hot at the sight.

Damn, I did not expect this. He was very, very toned.

I took a few deep breaths, grabbed some gauze, and started to clean his wounds.

After around 15 minutes, I finally got the bleeding to stop.

I used the scalpel to clean up some of the cuts, to make them straighter. That way they would be easier to stitch up.

I checked the monitor, his BP was back up to 110.

That was close. Too close.

-Time skip-

"So school was ok. Kinda boring, but what else is new. Ned and Michelle are wondering where you've been, so I said that you're sick. And, they want to know how we know each other. I told them we were neighbours, which isn't technically a lie," I spoke to Peter. I've been in his room everyday since he had been out, talking to him in hopes hat he would wake up. "Speaking Of neighbours, guess what? Your aunt is coming back in a few days. You'll be able to move back in with her. And, I finally decide on a superhero name."

I continued to talk, and I told him about school, and everything and anything really.

After about an hour, I was getting hungry so I left him and went to the kitchen.

"Any change?" Wanda asked me.

"Nope. Still the same," I sighed, grabbing a couple oranges and sitting at the table with her and Natahsa.
