I wake up to a beeping sound causing me to groan. Someone's hand is resting on mine and I look hoping to see Steve but it is a sleeping Peter instead.

My heart flutters thinking that he was here with me. What the hell is wrong with me? I ask myself annoyed.

"Where's my dad?" I ask quietly knowing he could wake up to any sound. Peter jolts awake and looks at me sadly.

"Please tell me he isn't dead." I ask my minds going back to the earlier vision I had. Tears well up in my green eyes causing my vision to blur.

"No. No Letta he is alive. No one knows where he is though." Peter states. My heart drops thinking that he felt me behind. He forgot about me.

I run my hand through Peters hair out of the blue for some odd reason. Peter chuckles and wipes a tear from my eye.

"You know this is the only actual interaction we have had, where we aren't trying to kick each other's ass." Peter jokes causing me to laugh but then groan in pain. His brown eyes look at me concerned and I just give him a small smile.

"I'll heal. I always do sometimes just the more traumatic wounds take longer." I explain gently to him.

"What are your powers?" He asks curiously. My breath hitches a little, no one has ever asked me that before I am taken back a bit.

"Well, I can go invisible, I can make forcefields and use them as I wish. I get these weird visions of how that future may turn out but most of the time they don't happen 100% of the way I see them. My body heals in this weird inhuman speed. I'm pretty weird if you ask me." Joking I laugh a little. Peter doesn't laugh at my joke tho.

"I don't think your weird." He says gently. My eyes soften and I thank him gently.

After a few hours of talking to Peter, Tony walks in out of the blue and he gives me a wide smile.

"Hey kid why don't you go get some food." Tony states to Peter. Peter gives me a look and I nod my head at him letting him know it will be okay for him to go. Peter leaves the room after telling me he would be right back.

"Where's my dad? Where's Steve Tony? I swear to god if you locked him up..." before I could finish a familiar tall blonde hair man sneaks into the room.

Steve's blue eyes land on me and he comes to the side of my bed and hugs me gently. Tears start to fall down my cheeks and this time I let them. My body squeezes Steve harder as I let out a quiet sob.

"Shhh." Steve whispers to me. He pulls away and wipes the tears from my cheek.

"Letta I thought you died." He sighs sadly. "Is everyone okay? Is Bucky okay?" My voice asks anxiety clearly heard.

"Calm down. Yes.... but Letta I have to talk to you." Steve says gently. My heart breaks into a million of pieces and I know what words are about to leave his mouth.

"No. Don't say it." I beg shaking my head as tears fall down my cheeks again.

"Letta you can't come with me. You know this. It isn't safe for you to be with me anymore. Tony and I had made a deal together. You are going to stay with that Peter kid and his aunt until you're eighteen. You will go to the same high school as him and Tony will be there for you whenever you need him. Just think Letta you get to have a normal teenage life now. You can go to prom and meet friends that aren't older then you...." Steve stops talking and looks at me sadly.

Tears are in his eyes and I could tell Tony and him didn't make a deal. It was either this or prison, for me and Steve knew we couldn't keep running forever.

"No. I don't want a normal teenage life anymore if it means I don't get to have you there. Who is going to scare away all the guys that would want to date me? Whose going to be there when I have an anxiety attack? Whose going to be there when I need my dad because you aren't going to be there! I don't want that! I want to be with you! You promised me! You promised you're not going anywhere with out me! You promised you will take care of me until I'm 18! You promised and you never break a promise!" I yell at him. The tears are uncontrollably streaming down my face and my throat hurts from yelling.

"You promised me." I sob and I hug myself. In my mind I knew he was doing this for my safety. I knew it but I didn't want to believe it. Steve pulls me into his chest and I pull him closer to me knowing this will be the last time I see him.

"I'm sorry. I love you with all my heart Letta." Steve whispers before pulling away and setting my down back onto my hospital bed.

"Steve you have to go before someone walks past and spots you." Tony says quickly. Steve was about to leave but he turns back and pulls me into one last hug.

"I promise I'll come back. Just wait until everything settles down." He whispers before kissing my forehead.

"Dad!" I yell before he left again. Steve turns around with tears in his eyes causing my heart to break even more.

"I love you." I say, Steve smiles at me, and replies "I love you too."

And then he disappears without another word. My chest feels heavy and I start to break down crying again.

I just lost the one person I could call dad, and I know I will never see him again even if he promises we will. Because promises are made to be broken not kept.

Shit guys I'm crying just writing this. Well now we are going into homecoming!!!!! I'm so excited and I hope you guys have liked the first part so far!! Now onto part two!!!!
