As the luxurious car pulled up at Stark Towers Tony looked down at the sleeping kid next to him. Peter's cheeks were stained with tears and his hair was just honestly everywhere but Tony's heart broke in two for the poor boy. Just weeks earlier Peter was jumping around wrecking the place but now Tony doubted that this teen was emotionally strong enough to make himself a bowl of cereal.
Happy glanced back at Tony with a knowing glint in his eyes before leaving him in the car to plan the easiest way to get Peter into the tower without waking him out of his peaceful slumber.
Once his plan was carefully planned and calculated with help from FRIDAY, Tony slowly opened the car door making as little noise as possible. Obviously this included catching his hand in the handle and swearing obnoxiously loudly as a sharp pain twisted through his pinkie finger. Miracously Peter stayed asleep, without even shifting his position.
'Thank fuck Peter is a teenager, this kid could sleep through the bloody apocalypse' Tony muttered under his breath.
Slowy Tony stepped out of the car and, having deduced that Peter could sleep through pretty much anything, ungracefully dragged him out the car and in through the back door. Tony slowly pulled Peter across the floor aiming for the guest room that had slowly become spider themed as Peter's visits became for frequent. Aswell as often over running to the point where Peter could no longer make it home.
Tony continued pulling Peter through the corridors, only accidently smacking Peter's head on a wall while going around a corner a few times (Tony felt incredibly guilty after these occasions) until he encountered s few problems.
'WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH THE BOY OF SPIDERS?' Thor bellowed as Tony tiptoed past the kitchen. Tony swiftly 'SHHHHH'ed him in fear of Thor's voice actually being loud enough to wake Peter and carried on moving.
Another time he saw Clint give a rather strange and horrified look at him before slowly opening his mouth. Tony quickly dropped Peter's hand and rapidly (and poorly) signed that he would tell him later. Tony was quite proud that he had thought of signing (idk how to spell idek if this is right ahhhh) to make as little noise as possible and even more proud that he had made a coherent sentence. However Clint started snorting as Tony had actually signed. 'Shut fuck I shit to you later.' What could Tony say, sign language wasn't his forté.
Eventually Tony made it to Peter's room and quietly closed the door behind him. He delicately placed Peter in his bed feeling immensely guilty about how he has dragged him through the tower. Maybe I should have just carried him Tony thought before going through all of the highly likely possibilities of dropping poor Peter and dismissing the idea.
Tony pulled the duvet over Peter and patted him goodnight. He would let Peter rest now as he was sure sleep would be in short supply later. After having contemplated all life desicions Tony trudged off to his lab with a deep feeling of anxiety settling in his stomach. How was he supposed to give Peter back the childhood that he had been robbed from just hours before?
That night was a restless one for Tony as he researched how to look after teens and most importantly of all, how to be the best dad ever.

FanfictionHis tears fell faster and his screams became louder until he felt a strong, reassuring hand on his shoulder. 'It's going to be alright, kid' said the voice. 'Mr. Stark?' As Peter's life falls apart he puts on a face of lies. He's done this before...
