Peter's point of view

     "Ugh," I buried myself deeper under the pile of covers I made. No matter how hard I try I can't block out the shouting from the other room. I should have never agreed to move in with Dad. At least when I was on my own I didn't have to listen to Wanda and Pietro argue over food.

     "Pietro if you don't unhand that last waffle!" I feel my stomach turn at the thought of food. I close my eyes trying to go back to sleep.

      "No way shortie" I hear a loud thud. Pretty sure Wanda got the waffle. Someone is walking downstairs, at this point my head is too fuzzy to think straight.

     "Good morning children" Dad must be about to leave for work. Dad that word still feels so strange.

    "I'm Nineteen, old man," Pietro says. I wait until I hear the car pull out of the driveway to sneak into the kitchen for a glass of water.

3rd person's point of view
     Peter stumbled out of his bed and toward the stairs. As soon as he got down the stairs he rested against the wall.

     "Hey small fry" Pietro smirked dashing over to his brother. It's no secret that Pietro loves to annoy the heck out of his family, especially Peter.

     "Leave me alone" Peter sent a glare towards Pietro. There is no way he can outrun his older brother in this condition heck he couldn't even outrun Charles.

     "You don't mean that" he smirked ruffling Peter's hair. Peter tried to push him away. Pietro suddenly became very concerned usually Peter would be yelling and punching at him by now.

     "Please stop" Peter started to shake before falling to his knees. Pietro carefully picked up his little brother and laid him on the couch.

     "Geez kid could you be any lighter" Pietro joked light-heartedly as he placed a hand on Peter's forehead. "Wanda bring some medicine The kid's sick" It took Wanda five seconds to get a glass of water, and medicine and put a bowl of soup on the stove.

     "Hey, Pete I need you to drink this" Wanda handed, Peter, a small cup of medicine. Reluctantly Peter took the cup and drank it. He then stuck his tug out making a gagging noise.

    "I know buddy" Pietro rubbed Peter's back. It hurt to see the speedster so weak even though he could be way past annoying. Pietro wished he was running all over the house talking everyone's ear off. Wanda brought Peter a bowl of soup and made sure he ate every bite. Due to the kid's super metabolism, he needed all the food he could stomach. It was weird but Wanda felt such a strong urge to protect Peter and would do anything in the world to make him feel better. She wondered if this was how Pietro felt about her when she was sick.

     "Want to watch a movie, Pete?" Peter's eyes widened and he smiled with a small nod. Wanda let Peter put the movie on and curled up on the couch with her brothers. For the first time since he moved in Peter felt like he was home.

Magneto's point of view
     I walked into my house to see the most shocking sight of my life. All my children are peacefully asleep on the couch. Of course, I did what any good father would do and took a load of pictures.
