Chapter 32: A Question

This one is just kinda fun.

Tony's POV

I sit at the counter in the common room taking some much needed relaxation time, and by that of course I mean, I'm eating cold pizza and watching youtube. The past couple months have been very stressful, and I need all the relaxation I can get. Unfortunately for me, Peter Parker decides to take this opportunity to come stand next to me and stare at me while sweating, what kind of pass time is that?

"Do you need something Kid." I ask him after pausing my video.

"A-actual yeah. I was wondering if I could talk to you?" He rubs his hands against his jeans. Man this kid is a nervous wreck, what's wrong with him?

"Well we seem to be already talking, so go ahead."

"Uh, right, yeah." He clears his throat.

"I know you've got a lot going on these days, and this is probably the last thing you wanna talk about, so I should probably wait till you're not so busy to ask you this, but i've been waiting for so long that I don't think I can wait anymore."

"Alright, get on with it kid, what's your question?" I prompt him, starting to get impatient.

"Uh, I was just wondering if it was alright if Kennedy and I, you know, started dating?" I stare dumbfounded with pizza hanging out of my mouth. That was definitely not the question I was expecting

"i'm sorry could you repeat the question? I could have sworn you just said you want to date Kennedy."

"I did Mr. Stark." he confirms. The only reasonable reaction seems to be fake laughter.

"Hahahahahah no."

"wait what? Why not?"

"Why not? Because I'm her guardian, and I forbid her to date till i'm dead." I clarify and start to walk toward the elevator, just as I push the button a mass of webs cover the door.

"Mr. stark I can't let you leave without hearing me out." the boy demands as I turn around to face him.

"You really have to stop using that trick on me."

"Mr. Stark I really care about her, I'm not gonna let it go that easily. I'm willing to follow any and all regulations you set, it'll be the same as always but we'll be able to use the word dating." I look at him for a long time, searching his expression to see if he's sincere.

"Are you sure about this? Cuz if you hurt her she has at least nine uncles six aunts, two soon to be parents, a brother, and a handful of cousins who will be waiting in line to kill you."

"More sure than i've ever been about anything in my life. And i promise you I will never hurt her." I think about it for a long moment, building the suspense for the boy in front of me.

"Alright. I'll allow it." I stick out my hand and the grinning boy shakes it heartily. "But i'm warning you, if I see anything I don't like, you'll be out of here before you can pack your bags."

"Understood Mr. Stark." he drops my hand and stands there, waiting for permission to leave.

"Get out of here, I'm sure Kennedy is waiting up there for you." He grins some more and thanks me before cutting all the webs off the elevator. "And remember, I have cameras in every room of this tower so i'll be watching." I warn as he gets in the elevator and closes the door. I let out a sigh as he disappears, I hope I don't regret this decision.
