A/N: This is the last chapter! So I hope you enjoy it! 

When the car stopped Isabella and Peter climbed out of the car. Both of them just stood there for a second, admiring the building in front of them. 

"It's newly remodeled." Happy explained as he climbed out of the car and walked over to the two teenagers. 

"This place is beautiful." Isabella whispered and Peter nodded a little, not being able to say anything. 

"Come on you two." Happy said as he motioned for them follow him into the building. 

Peter smiled and grabbed Isabella's hand to get her to get her to walk into the building. She stumbled to follow him and smiled gently as she caught up to Peter's side. 

The two of them followed Happy throughout the compound and to meet Tony Stark. 

"There they are!" Tony calls as Peter and Isabella's attention was torn from the interior of the compound to Tony. 

The two of them smile as he walked towards them. "Give us a minute, give us a little space." Tony said and Happy gave Tony a look, but gave them space anyway. 

Tony separated the two of them by squeezing his way between them. "I'm really proud of you two." He added and Peter looked at Isabella and smiled. "Sorry I took your suit. I mean, you had it coming. Actually, it turns out it was the perfect sort of tough love moment that you needed, right? To urge you on, right? Wouldn't you think? Don't you think?" He added. 

"I guess." Peter said and Isabella had to bite back a laugh. 

"Let's just say it was. You two screwed the pooch hard. Big time. But then you did the right thing: You took the dog to the free clinic, you raised the hybrid puppies... alright, not my best analogy. I was wrong about you two, I think with a little more mentoring, you could be a real asset to the team." Tony said and both of the teenagers paused. 

Both of them stopped walking and just looked at Tony. "The team?" Isabella asked, a smile creeping onto her face. 

"Yeah, the team. There's about 50 reporters behind that door, real ones, not bloggers, When you're ready." Tony explained as he pointed towards a wall. The wall actually opened to reveal a new spiderman suit for Peter and a new catsuit for Isabella. "Why don't you two try those on? and I'll introduce the world to the newest official members of the Avengers: Spider-Man and the next black widow." Tony asked and Isabella looked at Peter and Peter looked back at Isabella. 

"Ca-Can I?" Peter asked and Tony nodded smiling. 

"Yeah, go take a look." Tony said and Peter slowly walked up to the display. Isabella followed and watched Peter tentatively. 

This was everything that she had wanted before the assignment with Peter. Now, all she wanted to do was go back to Queens and cuddle up to Peter on the couch without getting interrupted by Vision walking through the wall. 

"Tony, thank you for the offer, but I think I'm okay." Isabella said causing Peter to look back at her and Tony's jaw to drop a little bit. "I know this is what I wanted for awhile but now that I know what it's like to have almost a normal life, I'm okay." She added. 

"So am I." Peter said walking over to Isabella and gently lacing their fingers together. "I think I'll stick with being a friendly neighborhood spiderman for now." He added. 

"And I'll help with that." Isabella added and Tony just kind of stood there for a second. 

"You're turning me down? You better think about this. Look at that. Look at me. Last chance. Yes or no?" Tony asked and the two teens looked at each other before turning back to Tony. 

"No." They said at the same time and Tony nodded. 

"Okay. It's kind of a Springsteen-y, working-class hero vibe that I dig. Happy will take you home." Tony said pointing to Happy who was still in the background. 

"Okay, give us a minute." Happy said walking up to the three of them. "Meet me at the car." He added before the teens started to walk away. 

"That was a test right? There's nobody back there?" Peter asked, turning over his shoulder to look at Tony and Happy. 

"Yes, and you passed." Tony said causing Peter to turn around and smile to himself before almost skipping out of the building with Isabella beside him. 

When the two of them reached the car Peter hugged Isabella tightly, causing her to laugh a little. 

"Well what was that for?" Isabella asked and Peter just smiled at her. "You seem to be very happy." She added. 

"I am happy, I have an amazing girlfriend and Tony Stark is my mentor and I'm the spiderman." Peter explained and Isabella smiled at him. 

"Why thank you. I'm glad you're happy Peter." Isabella said and Peter kissed her gently. 

"Okay you two, enough kissing. We have to get you two back to Queens." Happy said causing the two teenagers to jump and blush brightly.  

Isabella smiled as they got in the car and smiled. 


When they got back to Peter's apartment building Peter got out and Isabella turned to Happy. "Thank you Happy, hopefully I'll see you soon." Isabella said as she got out of the car, leaving Happy with a small smile on his face. 

Peter and Isabella made it up to his apartment in silence. Peter kissed her cheek before unlocking the door and grabbing Isabella's hand again, dragging her in. 

"Hey Aunt May! I brought Bella over!" Peter called as Isabella laughed. "Aunt May?" Peter asked when there was no response. 

"I guess she's not home." Peter said as he read the note on the kitchen table. 

Isabella nodded as she walked into his room, seeing two brown bags on his bed. "Uh...Peter?" Isabella called and Peter ran into his room to find what Isabella found. 

"No way." Peter whispered as he walked up to them and smiled. He opened the bag to find his spiderman suit Tony first gave him. Isabella walked towards the second bag. 

"He didn't." Isabella whispered and opened the second bag. "Oh my god." She whispered. 

Peter pushed Isabella out of the room and to the bathroom to make her change and so that he could change into his suit. 

After they were changed, they both stood in Peter's room in their new suits. 

"I can't believe this is happening." Isabella whispered as Peter pulled his mask off. 

"Neither can I." Isabella whispered and smiled up at him. 

Peter smiled and pulled her closer to him before kissing her again. 

"What the fuck?!" Aunt May exclaimed from the doorway causing the two teenagers to jump back and look in that direction. 

"I can explain!" They yelled.
