The Dadsandwich

We're Tired Parents

Narrator's POV

"We're home!" Peter shouted coming in.

Something suddenly raced toward him and threw him on the ground.

"Ah! Wade! Help!" He shouted.

Wade laughed.

"Huh? What?" Peter looked up, only to see a golden retriever on top of him. "What the? Where did..." He sat up.

In front of him stood his two dads and Oliver, who was holding a cat.

"Surprise!" Oliver said.

"What is going on?" Peter asked.

Wade helped him up.

"We went to the adoption center while you were gone." Tony said.

"That's Rex." Oliver pointed at the dog beside Peter.

Rex barked and spun around, sitting on the ground.

Peter smiled. "I like him."

"And this is Sassy." Oliver said, holding up a Birman cat. "She has very soft fur."

Peter looked up at his dads. "This is perfect."

Stephen and Tony smiled at him.

"We're glad you like them."

"Alright everyone." Sam said as he took a seat upon a round circle of chairs at the Avenger's Compound. "Anything in specific that you'd like o talk about?"

"Oh." Scott raised his hand. "The eagles won yesterday."

Clint looked at him. "Oh, you watched the game yesterday?" He then noticed scratches all over Scott.

"What game?"

Sam laughed. "Alright. Let's do an exercise today. It's called The Box."

"Alright, what are we doing?" Bucky asked, crossing his arms.

"Imagine if someone handed you a box full of things that you've lost throughout your life. What would be in it?"

Tony raised his hand. "My will to live. I haven't seen it in fifteen years."

"Metal stability...my old friend." Stephen said.

"It's costs four hundred dollars to see a therapist, but it costs nothing to tell myself it be like that sometimes." Tony explained.

"Tony, please. This is the fifteenth time this week." Stephen whispered softly.

Everyone looked at the two.

"Tony, you're literally a billionaire. Please go see a therapist." Scott said.

"Could you two lighten up a little?" Rhodey asked.

"I think..." Sam started. "You two need a vacation."

"Oh, no, no, no." Tony said. "I can't leave those three alone for one minute."

-Flashback-

"Iron Dad! Dr. Dad! Watch this." Peter said, rushing down stairs with Levi. He nudged Levi. "Okay, do the thing."

Levi dabbed.

Peter smiled at his dads.

Stephen was confused, yet disappointed.

Tony smiled. "Wow, that's amazing kid."

"Peter, how would you like your-oh." Stephen said as he noticed Peter coming into the kitchen still dressed in his pajamas and his hair over his eyes.
