Narrator's POV
"They got a new manager at the clinic, so I got my job back." Stephen said to Tony on the phone.
"Honey, that's great!" Tony said, carrying Peter in one arm while holding the phone with his shoulder as he wrote down some stuff he needed. "When are you starting?"
Peter was playing with a small stuffed lamb.
"I told them in two days." Stephen said. "How's Peter?"
"He's great, look listen." Tony said, putting the phone to video chat. "Look who it is Peter." Tony said.
"Hi, Peter." Stephen smiled at the toddler.
Peter giggled, making excited baby noises.
"He's excited to see you." Tony said.
"I'm excited to see him too." Stephen said. "Any news on those little chompers?"
"Well, he's been chewing on the toys." Tony said. "Isn't that right, Pete?" He looked at Peter.
Peter looked at Tony with confusion, but then started giggling, taking Tony's nose in his little hand.
"Oh." Tony laughed.
Stephen laughed. "Yeah, teething hurts. Anymore questioning from the team?" He asked.
"Uh, yeah. Plenty." Tony said. "Thor was extremely excited when I pronounced him uncle."
"Uncle Thor." Stephen smiled. "That has a nice ring to it. I'm sure he's great with children."
"Yeah, a gentle giant." Tony said.
"So they think you're a dad?" Stephen asked.
"Well, I told them kind of. I told them that Peter and I aren't connected in any sort of way, but I'm in charge of him." Tony said. "And you occasionally help out."
"Well, I'm coming home." Stephen said.
A portal opened next to Tony.
"I'm home." Stephen said.
Peter wriggled in Tony's arms, reaching for Stephen.
"Hey Bud!" Stephen smiled, putting his brief case down and reaching for Peter.
Tony handed Peter to Stephen.
Peter put his little forehead against Stephen's cheek, smiling.
"Aww." Stephen said under his breath and held Peter close.

"I'll be down at in my shop okay?" Tony asked Stephen, who was playing with Peter on the couch.
"Okay." Stephen smiled.
Tony walked past with a tablet in his hands.
"You're a cute baby, aren't you Peter?" Stephen asked. "Yeah, you are." He tickled Peter's neck.
Peter giggled, crawling on Stephen's chest and to his face, tapping it with his hands.
