"You're sure this is going to work?" Clint looks at you with eager eyes, bouncing on his toes in anticipation.

"No," you shrug simply, dangling your legs over the edge of the kitchen counter where you sit. "I'm not sure any of it will work, but I think it's worth a try."

"Oh, definitely," Clint agrees, thinking about your plan with a smirk on his lips. "If only these would work on Nat too."

"Uhm, thank goodness she wasn't bitten by a radioactive spider," you counter with a crazed look on your face. "Natasha would literally murder us if we tried this on her."

"You're right I take that back," he shudders suddenly. "I can picture her using me as target practice now that I truly think about it."

You agree with a silent nod, your mind too preoccupied with the levels of your plan to carry on a conversation. There are multiple steps to your plan and you and Clint went to great lengths to make sure everything falls into place.

"You got Steve to use those new dryer sheets in the laundry, right?" You ask your partner in crime hopefully.

"Yeah," he rolls his eyes in response. "And then he proceeded to lecture me on how if I want new dryer sheets then I can do 'my own stupid laundry,'" he puts air quotes around Steve's lecture sarcastically.

"Ah, classic Steven," you smirk.

"Ms. Y/L/N, Master Parker will arrive in the kitchen in approximately two minutes," the AI announces from above you and you clap your hands together eagerly.

"Yes! Thank you, JARVIS!" You grin mischievously.

"Okay, I've got the tea with the peppermint in it," Clint says, pouring three cups so it doesn't look suspicious. "I can't believe we're actually testing this dumb theory."

"You won't be saying it's dumb when it's true,"
you huff but wipe the frown off of your face as soon as Peter walks into the kitchen. "Hey, Petey!"

"Oh! Hey, Y/N.." He looks between you and Clint with a mixture of surprise and uncertainty. Well, that will most certainly have to change.

"Clint just brewed some tea and JARVIS told us you just got home from school," you say innocently, a neutral yet content expression on your face. "So we made you a cup."

Peter's expression changes from nervous to relaxed as he takes the warm mug Clint passes to him easily. "I love tea, thanks Mr. Hawkeye! You don't even want to know the day I had at school today, why won't Mr. Stark let me be homeschooled like you-" Peter begins to rant, pausing only to take a sip of his tea.

You and Clint watch closely in anticipation as he lifts the mug to his lips. Almost as soon as he takes a sip, Peter spits it out and seems to be choking. Or gagging. You're not exactly sure.

"Peter!" You fake concern unlike Clint who can't contain his laughter. "Are you okay?"

"What the heck was in that?" Peter gasps, running to the fridge for some water. "What did you do to it?"

"It was just peppermint tea.." You trail off, fake confused as Peter glares at you.

"Yeah, well, you two need to learn how to make tea or something."

Fact: Spiders hate peppermint.
