Peter really really loved tagging along with Tony. They've grown quite attached to eachother and the last time Tony went for a two week business trip, well... It's safe to say that both lost their minds, and the minds of everyone that tried to help. So May and Pepper had no choice but to arrange their schedules so they could go together.
It was an amazing feeling to be around Tony while he did his thing. Peter felt safe, loved, pampered and protected. He felt content knowing the older man is around him and they're kind of spending a fusion of a mini vacation and a business trip. The baby spider could either order room service, raid the mini bar, go exploring, or sleep till Tony came back from meetings. Sometimes Tony took him with him and he hung out in the lobby or cafes nearby. He may be Spiderman but he was WAY too anxious to stay around Tony's associates. So no meetings rooms for Peter, unless it was empty. That's where spiders crawl.
They were currently in Paris, something to do with a high profile company wanting Stark created and run programs for their systems. Tony had meetings from 10am to 4pm. He had left before Peter woke up. He'd arranged room service. Coffee, full french breakfast and tucked the covers tightly around Peter before anything else.
Tony had promised to take him to a nice restaurant for dinner (Rhodey and Tony's favourite in Paris). But honestly he didn't even mind eating cold pizza and watching reality tv all cuddled up together. That's what life felt like when you were with your loved ones. Everything was the best thing ever.

Peter lazied around the entire day. He was snuggled in bed, a/c on blast when he heard the beep of the key card. The door opened and in walked Tony, hair wild, tie loosened and shirt untucked. "You look like an absolute mess" Peter eyed him up and down. "Meetings for six hours will do that to ya kid" Tony grumbled, fully removing his tie and shedding his coat. The younger reached out and wiggled his arms. "Seriously?. I'm a disaster Pete" Tony raised a very judgy eyebrow. "I'm not blind Tony, Just clingy" Peter whined, wiggling his hands more. Try as he may, resist as he might, the billionaire was NOT immune to puppy eyes. Or spider eyes?
Tony climbed into the bed and Peter immediately clung to him.
"Miss me?"
"You know I did. If this wasn't such a problem we wouldn't even be here, in literal Paris"
"I don't know Petey pie. Seems like you're enjoying this far too much"
"I am. You make me feel safe and loved. You're so annoying. Why do you have to go and make me feel like that?"
"Cause I'm-"
"Tony Stark, genius, billionaire, ex-playboy, philanthropist, I know"
"And a dad to a baby spider apparently"
"Tony!"
"Hey, It's true!"
Peter buried his face in Tony's collarbone, whining under his breath. The genius combed his fingers through Peter's hair and rubbed his back with his other hand. They didn't talk about it but their dinner plans changed to room service, snuggling up and watching Karens getting arrested videos.

Peter woke up with a gasp. Sounds of screams and violence fading as he adjusted. The room was dark, the a/c humming in the background and some street noise. The clock read 3:30am. Tony was completely out next to him, on his back and snoring. He felt his entire nervous system start to calm at the sight.
He felt his throat close up. Peter sighed and got up. He opened the mini bar, taking out his favourite peach ice tea. He curled up on the sofa. Life was... Life, but he had Tony. He felt like that's all he wanted really, a dad that lived to love him. The spiderling finished his drink and headed back to bed.
"Pete..?" Tony murmured half asleep when he felt the bed shake, arms instantly going around Peter as he snuggled back into Tony's embrace.
"nightmare?"
"Yeah"
"W'na talk?"
"Nah"
"Kay"
The billionaire wrapped his arms around Peter properly and the younger nuzzled into his chest, both settling in.
"Love you Underoos"
"Love you too"
"How much?"
"3000"
