One Change, One Chance

Okay, he may have to give everyone an interview, but his mind was made up, he was going to keep Peter.

Tony must have known himself pretty well, because he did finish the interviews, but he didn't like any of them nearly as much as he enjoyed Peter.

A day after he had finished his interviews, he called the kid, "Peter Parker?" He barely let whoever was on the other side pick up before he said this.

"That would be me." The person on the other side said.

"This is Tony Stark, you got the internship kid."

"Ohmygod, really? Wait, you're not just some random person mocking me are you? This is real?"

"Yes. Now if you'll come back down to the tower as soon as possible, that would be great."

"Of course."

"Great."

After all of the arrangements were made, Peter was coming to live at Avengers Tower for six months.

The reason is, Peter, was not just going to be Tony's new intern, he was going to be the Avengers' new intern. So he had to figure out the patterns of this six people in order to understand how to tend to their needs. Plus Tony wanted the Avengers to get used to having someone to help them.

He knew the rest would adore Peter, so he had no issues there.

"Goodbye May, I'll see you soon. I'll miss you." Peter almost felt like crying, with how far away Avengers tower was from his home, he probably wouldn't see his aunt much. He felt May throw her arms around his neck, although he wasn't much taller than her 5'2 at his own 5'4. He immediately dropped his bags that he was holding and held her, fearing her tears against his grey hoodie.

She pulled away, and as he was picking up his bags again, she said, "I'm just so damn proud of you, you're growing up. They would be proud too you know. So would he." She said with a watery smile.

"Thanks. I love you." He glanced behind him to see the driver, Happy he thought he heard, pointing at his wrist to show that it was time to wrap it up.

"I have to go, but goodbye." He turned away.

"One last hug." He heard before someone was whipping him around and squeezing him. Peter closed his eyes, snapshotting this moment, keeping it forever. Never wanting to forget how he felt right then.

When all of his bags were loaded up in the car, and so was he, Happy started driving. He saw his aunt chase after the car, before it was gaining to much speed, and she had to wait back and just settle for waving, he pressed his hand against the back window and then waved as well.

"You'll see her soon." The driver said, strangely sentimental, although he looked rather gruff. If peter  tilted his head and squinted, he saw a little wetness in Happy's eyes.

"I hope so." Although Peter felt that wasn't happening any time soon, sadly.
