The time is currently 4am on the thirteenth of February and a stressed Peter Parker is questioning what the hell am I doing? Searching through wiki how trying to find out what people actually do on a date.
Do I buy her flowers?
What flowers does she like?
What if she doesn't like flowers? Then I'll get her a teddy bear.
But what if she doesn't like stuffed animals?
What if she had a traumatic experience with teddies when she was younger and I somehow trigger a panic attack?
What if she's seen child's play and thinks I'm giving her a murderous toy?
What if she doesn't even consider this a date?
What if she doesn't like me in that way?
What if she does like me in that way?
What if she kisses me?
What if she thinks I'm a bad kisser?
What if...
What if...
"Mr.Stark-Rodgers it appears you are having an anxiety attack. Should I alert your fathers?" J.A.R.V.I.S announced from the speakers. 'I can't let them know I'm up at this time of night stressing about something so little.' He thought. Peter soon realised he was hyperventilating and his heart was beating out of his chest, making him feel nauseous, which is probably the reason why he didn't respond to J.A.R.V.I.S and by the time you know it...
"Peter! Oh my goodness are you okay? Steve you're good at helping me with this kind of thing, help him!" Tony shouted, worry lining his voice.
Steve kneeled down so he was at eye level with the still hyperventilating and now pale Peter. "Look at me Peter. Look into my eyes. Don't think about anything else besides your breathing. Remember the day when we adopted you? Remember how happy you were. Breathe in, breathe out. Breathe in, breathe out. There's nothing to worry about, you're safe here. You're safe." Steve cooed which eventually calmed the boy down. Once his breathing had returned to its normal pattern, Peter embraced Steve and Tony in a hug.
"Thank you." He whispered. He knew he was safe when he was in the company of those whom he loved. Tony and Steve would never let Peter down on something as small as a date to something as big as fighting villains.
After the episode, Tony confiscated all of Peter's electronic devices and sent him to bed telling him that he shouldn't go to school later that day. Despite Peter's retaliation, Tony stuck by his decision as he knew what was best for Peter.

Ned: Hey, dude! Are you okay?
          We missed you at school
          today. Please reply, I'm
          worried!
4:30pm

Peter: Yeah, sorry. Dad said I
             couldn't go in. Personal
             reasons. Did you get a
             chance to talk to MJ?
4:31pm

Ned: Yes and she is also very
          concerned. After all the
          trouble I went through
          getting you a date and you
          don't even show up for
          school?!
4:31pm

Peter: The date is still on, right?    
            Did she say something?
4:32pm

Ned: I don't know, I'm irrelevant.
         Talk to her yourself. I'm sure
         she's dying to speak to you
         after you ditched her all day
         on VALENTINES DAY!
4:32pm

Peter: I didn't ditch her I had
            personal stuff to sort out!
4:33pm

Ned: Reassure her of that.
4:34pm

Peter: Will do 😉

MJ: Are you ignoring me?
4:29pm

MJ: I understand if you are.
4:30pm

MJ: If it's about tonight, don't
stress. It'll be fine whatever
happens.
4:30pm

Peter: MJ, I'm so sorry I missed
you at school today. I had
a personal issue that
occurred yesterday and my
dad decided that it was best
for me to stay away from a
'stressful environment' for
the day. I'm sorry for the
late response and if it's not
too late, I would really like to
go on a date with you. I'm
sorry.
4:37pm

MJ: He speaks! Of course I'll go
out with you tonight. What
time?
4:37pm

Peter: I'll pick you up at 7 just
send me your address and
also eat before because we
may not have time
afterwards.
4:38pm

MJ: K cya then.
4:38pm

Peter: Byyyyeeee
4:38pm

Peter threw his phone on his bed and sighed before realising...
"I have an hour to get two hours to get everything ready!" He shouted. "J.A.R.V.I.S, connect to Dad and Pops' room." He announced to the A.I .
"Connecting." J.A.R.V.I.S replied.
Soon, his dad's voice flooded the room, "Peter, are you okay?"
"Yeah Dad. Umm I was just er wondering if you could um like get me ready for my erm date tonight."
There was silence until,
Ding.
The elevator opened to reveal a very excited Tony. "Okay, Pete, lets do this."
