Tony's Pov:

"FUCK!" I shouted and Pepper startled at my outburst as well as Rhodey.

"You ok, man?" Rhodey asked.

"I messed up." I said.

"Uh...with what?" Rhodey asked.

"Rhodey...I was in a different Universe for 3 years. I was going to get married." I said.

"Sure..." Rhodey said and I sighed. Of course no one is going to believe you.

"Tony...I know you miss Peter but..." Pepper trailed off.

"He's not dead." I hissed.

"However you need to deal with this, man." Rhodey said.

"I'll tell May." Pepper said.

"HE'S NOT DEAD!" I snapped and they both looked at me worriedly as I left the room and went to the lab. "It was real...it was real." I repeated...It was...right? I don't even know...Rhodey is in his braces again, Steve is fucking old, Barnes doesn't talk to me and neither does the rest of the team, Wong has sent me a few texts checking up on me, and Strange...wasn't my Strange. I looked around the lab my eyes freezing on the spiderman suit. No Peter...No magic...No Steph. I looked at my severely damaged arm...I can't even build shit...What do I even have here? I'd have rather died than be stuck here with nothing. My head shot up when I heard a familiar noise...my mind fucking with me and making me think it was Steph but it was Wong.

"Stark." Wong greeted.

"Wong...what are you doing here?" I asked.

"Did Pepper not tell you?" Wong asked.

"She doesn't tell me much anymore." I said.

"She's been having Strange and I look into possible spells to help your arm." Wong said.

"Leave it." I said and Wong frowned.

"Are you not in pain?" He asked...Oh I'm in pain just some of the pain is worse than others.

"Nothing I can't tolerate." I said and he stared at me.

"Shouldn't you be happy? We won." Wong said.

"Oh I'm happy...I'm happy I woke back up on that fucking planet, I'm happy that I fucking lost everything in a matter of minutes, I'm fucking ecstatic about how I'm fucking alone once again and everyone fucking hates my god damn guts! I'm fucking happy that I can no longer do the only thing that kept me fucking sane in this shitty ass universe where I am just a plague on this GOD DAMN PLANET!" I shouted and then made a choked noise...Don't you dare fucking cry in front of him.

"Tony." Wong frowned.

"JUST LEAVE ME ALONE!" I snapped and Wong was studying me before he turned leaving through a portal. Once he was gone I broke down dropping to my knees as I sobbed.

Stephen's Pov:

"Wong, How did it go? Did it help?" I asked but Wong was quiet which made me look at him. He looked worried and confused for some reason. "What?" I asked.

"I am unsure...I think Stark just had a break down." Wong said.

"What? Why? We won." I said.

"We did but...I think he lost." Wong said and I frowned. What's he mean by that?

"I know his arm was injured but it can't be that bad." I said.

"Strange...remember when you hurt your hands?" Wong asked and I froze. "He can't build." Wong said and I felt cold...He can't build? "Rhodey said he's closed himself off and has been saying some really crazy things." Wong sighed.

"I'm sure he's fine." I said...He's Ironman.

"Maybe he's finally lost it." Wong said.

"Stark is not crazy." I said.

"He was in a spaceship and dying of lack of oxygen. He's not been right since then and that kid being gone...I think he's snapped." Wong said.

"He'll bounce back. He always does." I said and the cloak swatted at me suddenly before leaving me. "What was that about?" I asked.

"I don't know." Wong said.

"So did you do the spell?" I asked.

"No...He yelled at me." Wong said.

"Ok...We'll try again some other time." I said and Wong sighed.

"If he becomes a super villain I'm going to yell at you cause you could have stopped it." Wong said.

"Me?" I asked.

"You are an idiot." Wong said.

"What are you talking about?" I asked.

"Do you not remember how happy he was to see you? I swear it's like he loves you." Wong said.

"That's a silly thought since we only knew each other for a few hours." I said.

"Like I said...I think he's snapped...Anyone liking you is a mystery to me." Wong said and I glared at him.

Tony's Pov:

I stared at the drain as the water go down into it...swirling into the darkness of the pipe. I thought about the time in the shower with Steph when we decided to become boy friends...He's all alone...He thinks I'm dead. I didn't care if I was hurting but...I don't want Steph to hurt. Peter...Peter is probably hurting to. I died...I died to get back here and I died to get there so maybe. I looked at the kitchen knifes...Maybe If I die here again I can go back.
