Baby boy

Unsure

"I feel like it's pointless to talk about it at this point", Peter turned around to see Tony, an exasperated expression on his face as he neared the teenager. At this point, the other members purely spoke to Peter about one thing, and all the words that came tumbling from their lips went through one ear and straight out the other with Peter. He was not up for negotiation. It was his life, he could be with whoever the fuck he wanted, it wasn't like they were his parents.

"Yeah", Peter responded with a tight smile, turning back to his suit which was placed in a glass case, Peter taking a moment to admire the features of it. It was his new one that Tony offered, and he could barely believe his luck. He's owned it for a while now, but he was still more comfortable to use the original Tony gave him. He'll use this one in good time.

"I'm not here to... Badger you kid", Tony joined Peter's side as he looked up at the suit before turning his head to face the younger male. "I came to ask why".

"Why what?" Though Peter had an idea of what he was asking.

"Wade. Why him? What is it about that erratic lunatic that makes you so certain to stick with him? Despite what everyone tells you?"

Peter paused for a moment as he pondered that question. He's considered that question numerous times, especially when Wade was being particularly obnoxious. At some point, he supposed it was for the curiosity of being with a mysterious man that hid himself behind a mask of humour, but later it turned into just wanting to fix him. He was a broken man. A man everyone turned away from when they met him, as Peter did, when he was truly just begging for help. Wade continued to shelter himself in his joking nature around Peter. They weren't close enough for him to completely open up, but Peter hoped to eventually get there. He wanted to be the one to understand Wade Wilson.

"Beats me", is what Peter said as he shrugged his shoulders. "I guess I'm just hoping that he's more than what you all believe him to be".

"I doubt that".

"Yeah? Have you given him the chance to prove it?" Peter challenged as he quirked his brow at Mr Stark, the older male staying silent before he gave out a defeated sigh.

"Listen", he said seriously, placing his hand on Peter's shoulder. "No matter how much we pander you about him, it seems pretty clear that you're not planning on relenting any time soon, but all I'm going to say is, be careful", he squeezed Peter's shoulder for a second before retracting and turning away from him.

Peter watched Tony leave with a sullen expression, wondering whether that would truly be the last time he ever would warn Peter against Wade. He surely hoped it would be. He just wanted to make his own decisions out of his own free will, without people telling what he could and couldn't do. Though it was perfectly understandable why he'd be wary of Deadpool, with the reputation he had...

Peter sighed and glanced back at the suit in the case before he left the room, the doors sliding close behind him.

Peter and Wade were not officially together. They were somewhat nearing the idea, but it was not set in stone that they were partners, however, they were somewhat committed to one another romantically, at least that's how it was from Peter's end. He never thought of Wade as his boyfriend but when other people flirted with him, he always felt like he would be betraying Wade somehow if he allowed them to persist.

It really sucked. This unlabelled thing they had going on.

Either way, it wasn't like Peter could publicly go out with Wade. Firstly, because he's actually never seen Deadpool out of his suit and secondly, he'd get chewed out by the team for being so obvious. Wade attracted too much attention, whether he was in his suit or not.
