* To start off unless specified otherwise, the story will be in 3rd person*

A lump of blankets is seen moving from one room to the next, as if searching for something or someone. The penthouse of Stark Tower is empty, or so the blanket burrito thinks, resulting in a heavy sigh as he makes his way through the living room heading for the private elevator. IronTeddy in hand Peter makes his way into Tony's lab searching for his father. Finally succeeding in locating his target Peter grabs Tony by the arm with a pout stopping the man from his current task of cleaning DUMM-E.

"Dad, can't sleep night...[Yawn]...mares won't let me. Come watch movie with me, don't want to be a...[Yawn]...lone." an obviously tired Peter complains.

Looking at his adopted son with understanding and admiration, Tony gathers himself making sure to pocket his phone and turn his back to his sleepy child. As though this is a regular occurrence the two move in silence and Peter climbs onto Tony's back like the spiderchild he is, letting his dad carry him back into the elevator and into the living room.

Once they exit the elevator Tony realizes he had completely forgotten that the team was together again and had planned to move in that afternoon, there in front of the couch was Steve and Bucky who had been waiting to apologize to Tony for the past so they could move forward. As soon as Steve seen Tony step out of the elevator he immediately approaches with the intent to talk but is stopped by Bucky as he noticed the sleeping 15 year old on Tony's back.

"Who let you up here without my knowing?" Tony whisper yells as not to wake the sleeping boy on his back.

"Pepper, we are here to apologize and I missed you Tones," Steve's voice low and shaky as he fears Tony is dating the blanketed mass on his back.

"Well I'm sorry for the way I reacted too, but Bucky you are going to have to earn my trust. Capsicle I missed you more than you could imagine but we are going to have to take small steps ok, that shield imbedded into the reactor in that suit resulted in new shrapnel in my system meaning I had to go back to using a reactor to keep myself stable. So as much as I love you and missed you, I'm sorry but you will need to earn that trust back." With a sad glance he makes his way over to the couch and lays his son down, unknown to him that Pete had dropped his teddy until Steve handed him the bear with a sad look on his face.

"I understand Tony, but regarding the sleeping arrangements should I take the spare room on Bucky's floor, since you have a new boyfriend?" a look of disappointment on his face as he watched Tony tuck the bear into the other "mans" arms and turn toward Steve with a look of amusement and confusion on his face.

"First of all, as much as I don't trust you, I need you so your spot in my bed is waiting for you and Second of all this is not a boyfriend of mine Stevie. This is my, well if you want "our", son I adopted him after you left when I found him outside of a burning building crying. Turns out I ended up adopting a superhero of my own, though he's not you he has helped me with my own issues that and he's a certain red and blue crusader of his own. But we can finish this discuss in in the morning he had a nightmare and normally we watch a Disney movie until he falls asleep again." at this point Bucky sneaks off to find his bed because as much as he loved his bother he was tired and needed his beauty sleep.

"Do you think he would mind if I joined you?"

"No the kids too nice to say otherwise. Come on we can move this cuddlefest to our room."

Walking to Tony and Steve's room with Steve carrying Pete, Tony sets up a movie and pulls the sheets back. Steve lays Peter between him and Tony, Peter sensing the lack of contact uses his ability to stick to things to hold onto Steve's arm. Looking at Tony with a fearful expression he mouths over what should he do, with a slight giggle Tony runs a hand through the kid's hair triggering him to relax and release Steve. The two adults settle in and begin the movie as Pete rolls over once more attaching himself to Steve who just allows him to.

*Time Skip till Morning*

Pete is that last to wake up and when he does he notices he is alone in his dad's bed, wondering out to the kitchen still wrapped in his Captain America blanket and IronTeddy in his hand. Upon entering the kitchen he sees his dad and Steve in a deep conversation about their relationship.

"Morning Underoos, I hope you know that Steve and I are still technically married so that makes him you daddy too," Handing him a plate of pancakes and a glass of orange Juice.

"Dad no! I absolutely will not call him 'Daddy'" Thinking that Peter didn't like him Steve gets up to leave. "but maybe I'll call him pops."

Steve nearly knocks Peter over as he grabs him in a massive hug, "Don't scare me like that, but I'm glad we are going to be a big happy family again."
