Temptation

"I'll just relocate both of you! Ever since you two have arrived, you guys have been at each other's throat!" Sam exclaimed. 

Peter walked down the stairs, rubbing the sleep from his eyes. Sam's shouting had woken him up and it seemed like it wasn't going to quiet down anytime soon.

"Peter! You won't have to deal with his money anymore! You're free to say no now!" Steve boomed in joy, startling Peter.

The younger male jumped at the sound and looked at the blond with a confused face. "What the hell are you talking about?"

"Tony made you sleep with him right? You couldn't say no because of the amount of money he offered you, right?" Steve desperately questioned.

"Tony didn't force me to do anything! Don't make it sound like he raped me! It was mutual! We both wanted it!" Peter shouted, suddenly filled with anger.

"Regardless!" Sam raised his voice drawing the attention back to him. "Both Tony and Peter broke the rules of having affairs with others-"

"Haven't you seen Vision and Wanda though? Everytime I glance at them, it's like their trying to eat each other!" Tony exclaimed, interrupting Sam. 

The dark skinned man glared at Tony, "Vision was fired two days ago. You and Steve will be relocating because of this incident. Peter you will not be able to contact Tony until your treatment is done. That is my final decision," Sam stated to the group before walking away.

"I blame Steve," Tony said as he hauled his bag in a white van. He turned around and met Peter's eyes. "Everything will turn out fine. Maybe now you an get things done without me being around."

"You weren't a distraction. I don't want you to go," Peter whispered.

Tony smiled softly, "I know, but it isn't up to us. We'll meet again though we just got to get better first."

Peter rubbed his eyes with his sleeve and Tony pulled the younger male in for a hug. The two stayed that way for a long time, until Sam came outside and started yelling at the duo.

Tony pressed a sweet kiss in Peter's forehead, "Gotta blast," He winked.

Peter cracked a smile and took a few steps back. He watched as Tony left, his heart heavy in his chest. Sam slowly came up to him after some time had passed.

"I know you don't want to hear it, but it's for your own good rules are put in place for a reason," Sam spoke. "It might not cheer you up, but I have something for you."

Sam took Peter's hand and wordlessly pressed something into his palm, before walking back inside the house. Peter took a few shaky breaths as he tried to ground himself. 

After he calmed himself down, he opened his hand. It was his three month sobriety coin.
