     Peter Parker. Age 15 and orphaned. The teen walked down a street with warm bread in a sack. He figured he'd sneak out to bring the best for his friends. Sure, they ate but they wanted something really really special. Warm, fresh bread was perfect.

The young teen drifted off in thought at the idea. Who didn't love warm bread? Warm anything for that matter. It was cold in New York almost all the time. There was snow on the ground right now though. Not a ton and it wasn't snowing but enough to make it even colder. After thinking about it, Peters entire body was met with another. Peter gasped and finally realized what had just happened.

"I'm so sorry sir! I wasn't paying attention. I'm really really sorry," Peter stumbled out as he helped the man up and cleaned off his coat, not looking at who it was. Peters warm bread was all alright.

"Hey, Kid. Do you have any idea how much this suit costs?" The man grumbled. Peter bit his lip then looked at the mans face. Peter felt himself fanboy on the inside but his face was read with horror. He had just knocked Tony Stark over. THE Tony Stark! Iron Man! THE IRON MAN!

"You're T-Tony Stark," Peter sputtered. Tony nodded.

"You wouldn't say," Tony sighed. Peter then remembered how he had gotten into the situation.

"Look, I'm really really sorry. Do I need to do anything for you? I could give you the rest of my money. I-I can-," Peter was cut off by the man.

"No, no kid. I'm just kidding. It's really alright, I wasn't paying attention either. Um, where are you going off to. . . alone?" Tony then realized the boy was alone.

"Um, I was just getting some bread for my friends and I, Mr. Stark. I-I'm going back to an orphanage," Peters smile made Tony's heart warm on the cold day.

"Really?" Tony smiled.

Tony and Pepper were looking to adopt. Tony was so preoccupied dreaming off about finally getting a kid that he ran into one by accident. Pepper was unable to produce children, so Tony and Pepper decided on doing the next best thing, adopting.

"Yup. Talking about that, I should really get going. It was really great to meet you. Thank you for all you do, sir. I really appreciate it. I'm a big fan and I couldn't be happier to meet you. Oh, hi by the way. I'm Peter Parker. I'm also Spide- nothing! Um, I should really stop talking now," Peters face turned redder than it already was from the cold. His chocolate brown eyes reminding Tony of the hot chocolate in his own hand that surprisingly only spilled a tad bit on the ground.

"You're also what?" Tony's mind lurched when he heard spider. It reminded him of Spiderman. Wait-! "Kid, what were you about to say?"

"Nothing. Gotta run!" Peter took off. Tony tried stopping him but to no avail. Tony frowned then heard his phone ringing, forgetting about everything else. It was Pepper.

     "Hey honey, I'm almost back. I just had to get a sandwich from Delmars. That really good place? Yeah. Happy is taking me back right now," Tony finished as he hopped into the vehicle with Happy. Tony pressed the phone to his shoulder then patted Happy, "back home, Hap."

     Happy nodded, "of course."

     "Yes, I'm still here," Tony assured as he put the phone back to his ear, "you w-wanna go today? W-When I get back?" Tonys hands felt clammy. "Of course I want to, I just . . . am I gonna be a good father?" Tony murmured.
