Spider-Man joins the avengers

Part 2

TONY

Pepper has an odd way of making me change my mind. I'm in my studio working on something and suddenly she has me desperate to be at a party full of people I hate. I'm in comfortable clothes, getting ready to do absolutely nothing and impress absolutely no one, and suddenly I'm going through all my black tie suits desperate to have them on.
Steve and the others all told me I was under her finger but I laughed it off, but now, standing in the middle of this party I realise it's true. And I realise I don't mind so much.
'Okay, let's dance.' I say, taking her hand and parading her onto the dance floor.
'Tony, no one's dancing.' She says, resisting slightly.
'Oh look at that, we're dancing.' I say as I put my hands around her waist and start moving back and forth to the music.
'It's a good thing you're smart because you are an idiot.' She says, avoiding eye contact with anyone but me.
'Never have truer words been spoken.' I spin her round, 'have I told you how beautiful you look tonight?'
'Several times.' She says, smirking slightly.
'Maybe not an idiot then.' I say. More people have followed our suit and we're no longer the only ones dancing. And then, out of the corner of my eye, I see Natasha. 'In what world does Natasha go to a party voluntarily?' I ask, leading Pepper off the dance floor and towards Natasha.
'Hi Natasha.' Pepper says as we reach her by the bar.
'Hi Pepper, nice to see you.' She says, politely back.
I order two drinks for me and Pepper and turn towards Natasha. 'Well Natasha, what a pleasant surprise.' I say, cutting into the conversation.
'It's hardly a surprise, I was invited.' She says.
'What is this party for?' I ask Pepper.
Pepper goes to answer just as FRIDAY perks up in my ear.
'High Heart Rate in the Spider-man suit, sir.' I hand my drink to Pepper and double tap my earpiece so that I start to facecall Peter.
'Tony is everything okay?' Pepper asks.
'Just a check up.' I say. It rings but Peter doesn't answer.
'There is no answer on your call.' FRIDAY relays back to me.
'Override.' I say, and break through to Peter's suit instantly, 'Kid. I got high heart rate on your suit are...' I trail off as I see Peter's face, pale and looking panicked, 'Kid what's going on?' I ask, turning away from Pepper and Natasha and starting towards the exit. He looks at me, and then away, struggling to breathe. 'Okay, Pete, I'm on my way, don't hang up I-' he hangs up and I hit the counter, 'Dammit.' I say, turning to Natasha.
'What's up?' She asks, business ready.
'You ready to go?' I ask, continuing to walk towards the exit. Pepper is on one side, Natasha on the other.
'Always.' She says, following me out into the car parks
'Tony, what's going on. Should I call the others?' Pepper asks, stepping in front of me before I can leave the building.
'No.' I say, 'not yet. Stay where there's signal, I'll call if I need you to send for backup. I don't think this is a fight so much as an aftermath of one. I don't know. I just got to check on him.' She smiles and leans up to kiss me.
'Stay safe.' She looks at Natasha, 'both of you.' Natasha smiles and nods, following me out the door and setting up her motorcycle.
'You came on bike?' I ask.
'I'll return it.' She says. She takes the hem of her dress and rips, cutting it off just above her knees. She takes one gun from a strap around her ankle and then pulls out a spear like object I made for her from the back of her dress.
'You got your earpiece in?' I ask as my suit forms around me.
'Loud and clear.' Her voice comes in through the sound system.
'Follow me as long as you can, I'll reroute traffic as we go. I'll send coordinates in case we split.' I say, lifting off the floor.
'You got it, boss.'
