Clints pov Tuesday afternoon

Me and Nat are meeting with Fury in and hour, but I get a text from Peter saying he's not coming. Kid doesn't want to burden Tony when he's not.

"Nat, you ready to go?" The rest of the team thinks we're taking about a mission, but it's actually about meeting up with Petya this weekend.

"Yea, you drive." She calls from her room, she's going to regret this. See Steve set the rule of who ever drives picks the music and to annoy Nat I always play bird calls.

I am a little confused though, Nat always complains about my driving and my bird calls. She would never pass the opportunity to drive.

"Why are you letting me drive?" I ask suspisous.

"I'll tell you when we get there, just enjoy your bird calls." She sighed. This doesn't sound good.

On our way down to the garage we run into Bruce, with all his papers on the floor. Of course we help him pick them up.

"Thanks, hey mind if we carpool. I'm headed down to Shield as well." Petya has always lectured us on not polluting as much, so we agree.

I drive there, but it's not the same. Nat is just staring our the window, and. Bruce never talks in the car. Something about too much paperwork.

When we get to shield we go our separate ways, Tasha still acting werid.

"Fury, good to see you!" I shouted as we spotted him.

"How's my nephew?" Fury asked in his normal sarcastic tone.

"Right down to business I see, Petya's great. Visted him yesterday." Nat replied. Then she gets a call and steps away.

"How's he in school? Still liking Queens?" Fury questioned.

"Straight A honor student, and yes he loves Queens. I know you want him to live at the Base, and i would much prefer him at my farm but he's happy." I sighed, Petya was born at this base. Spent his first 5 years here and then at my farm for 6. Fury wasn't very happy when he was sent to Queens.

"You spent years here, you know how great it is. We have the best scientists and agents in here every day. This base could give him a better life." Fury rants. At this point Nat steps back.

"Petya just made his seconed friend, we aren't pulling him away from that. And apparently it's a girl." Nat beams, this doesn't comfort Fury at all.

"His seconed friend? Kids been in Queens since he was 11 and only had one friend till now?" I guess they call him 'Fury' for a reason, he gets very angry when it concerns Petya.

"He has a fake name, fake life, more secrets than anyone his age. You can't expect that to be easy." I tell, and they don't even know as many secrets as I do.

"He wouldn't have all that if he lived here, a secure base. Where when ever anyone hears his mother's name they won't dare threaten him." Fury boasted, Petya living here has it's benefits but many faults Nat doesn't want for him.

"Fury, I want him to have as normal of a life as possible." She hissed.

"He's the son of the world's best assassin and a God knows who else, there is no normal. Romanoff get that fantasy out of your head."he sighed. Fury knows who the father is, not many people came into contact with Nat back then but he plays dumb for her sake.

"Normal as he can be, going to a normal school, with normal friends and normal teenage problems. Not weather he's going to be kidnapped because his mother is an assassin." She told, we've had this talk with him quite a few times over the past 10 years.

Then I Nat gets another call, her face paled. I heard May panicked and yelling.

"Yes, May we'll be there in 5 minutes. Check his pulse." As she said that she signed to me that we needed to leave urgently. Petya is

"Fury, we need to rush. Petya is unconscious. Take Bruce home when he's done with his meeting." Nat yells as she hangs up. We run out to the car.

Peter's pov Tuesday evening

I wake up in my room. I see mom looking over me worried, uncle Clint is comforting a extremely worried May behind her. My head hurts a bit and I feel fuzzy.

"Hey mama. What are you guys doing here?" I ask while trying to sit up, only to be pushed right back down.

"Petya, you passed out. You have a fever too so no getting up." She tells, I try and hide my confusion. Last time I was sick was after the spider bite, I couldn't go more than 10 minutes without throwing up. I hid it as to not worry Ben, May, or mom. I realized with my healing I can still get sick it just takes alot more for me.

"I can't be sick, I have a test tomorrow. And my internship, plus me and Ned-" she cuts me off.

"No baby spider, your staying here. You had us worried sick. No school, no internship, no Ned's." She tells me sternly. I've found it ironic for her to call me baby spider when I'm Spider-Man and she doesn't know.

"I never get sick, I feel fine." I lied. I felt very warm and sorta dizzy.

Mom just glared at me, disappointed. She couldn't normally tell when I was lying but I think my unconsciousness and fever speak for themselves.

"You need to rest Petya, you have bags under your eyes. When did you sleep last?" Uncle Clint asked when he finally calmed May.

"I napped during lunch." I state not meeting there eyes. I can feel there worried glares. I know I should sleep more, and I planned to but May asking about my 'New friend' kinda side tracked that.

"Well off to sleep with you, May will call the school and Tony. We'll check in on you tomorrow." Uncle Clint says before he and May walk out.

"Sleep baby, missing one day won't hurt."she whispered to me, I planned on debating that statement but not sleeping for more than 30 minutes is starting to catch up with me.

Natasha's pov

I watch as Petya falls asleep, he looks so much younger. It worries me though, he hasn't gotten sick for almost 2 years. I kiss his forehead then we leave him quietly.

"When was the last time he really slept?" Clint asked May as she prepared tea.

"He looked awfully tired this morning but I have no clue, I went to sleep early yesterday and left early this morning." She sighed and looked panicked.

"May it's alright, just a fever. All kids get sick." Clint tired to comfort her.

We sit down and drink our tea.

"So did you meet up with Fury?" May asked calm now.

"Yea, he still wants Petya to live at Shield." I sighed.

"I don't know why that man has such an issue with Peter living here. I am more than able to take care of him!" She cursed, May and Fury never got along.

May never liked the idea of a kid living at a government base, and Fury didn't like Petya moving to Queens. Of corce the solution would be him living at Clints farm but Laura has 3 kids already to care for.

"Calm down May, Petya will live here unless he asked other wise or till he gose off to college." I reassure her, honestly Petya is too selfless to ask to move anywhere else. He's always hated being a burden no matter how much you assure him he's not.

"Kids smart enough to go to collage now, but he wants to have a semi normal life." Clint sighed.

Petya's father is exstreamly smart so it makes sense he is too. But with his mother being an assassin and Avenger he wanted to be somewhat normal. But Fury is right there is no normal for him.

"The apple doesn't fall far from the tree on that one." May snorted, one of the few things her and Fury agree on is that me wanting Petya to have a normal life is a fantasy.
