Ch. 26 Grieving

~Y/n pov~

Peter told me he had gone out to bust vultures next raid, he told me they were on a ferry and asked me to come.

I wanted to but decided against it, you see...

Today is the anniversary of my mother's death.

I sighed as I changed into a simple shirt and some leggings.

While I walked to the local flower shop, I noticed the sky was slightly grey and the sun was hidden behind the clouds.

I sighed, the weather matched my mood.

I stopped abruptly realising I had arrived at the flower shop.

I grabbed some blue flowers, blue was always my mum's favourite.

I felt a tear escape, but I quickly wiped it away before anyone could notice.

I paid for my flowers and headed to my mum's grave.

~*~

I gently placed the flowers down next to my mother's grave.

I kneel down as I felt the waterworks coming.

I reached out and touched the headstone, "Hey.", I sniffled as tears silently cascaded down my reddened cheeks.

"It's been awhile, it's hard without you around. But I'm protecting the world you love." I smiled slightly thinking about me and Peter, and your dream team.

I felt a lumped form in my throat, as I choked a sob.

"It hasn't been the same since you've been gone and it never will... Because your not here and you'll never get to see me grow up." I trailed off trying to think of what to say.

"I um... I like this kid, he's the one I save the world with and I don't know what to do, he likes Liz so... I'm - I'm more scared then ever." Sobs racked my body.

I had so much more to say but sometimes the best thing is to not say anything at all.

I stared at the ground as my hair cast a shadow over my eyes.

'Ring ring', the peace was interrupted by no other than Tony Stark.

I should probably answer it since he rarely calls me, it must be an emergancy, what if it has something to do with Peter?!

That thought alone panicked me as I quickly answered the phone, I composed myself to hide the fact that I had been balling my eyes out previously.

"Hi?" I asked.

"No time for small talk... Danger.. Peter.. Boat." The connection wasn't very good so I only caught certain words.

The cogs in my brain turns processing the words.

pEtEr's In DaNgEr!?

My suit formed around me, yes you could say I made some improvements to my suit.

" Coming. ". I hung up before slightly cursing to myself realising I hadn't got the address of where I was meant to be going to save Peter's ass.
