That Robotic Soul (Wingfic) Book 2

Chapter 7 I Promised

Peter's Pov:

I hate to do this but Mr. Stark didn't really tell me how Aunt may was doing...I snuck out of my room and down the hall to the common area. It was still early morning so everyone was probably asleep or busy. I snuck up the stairs to Mr.Starks room. Pausing at the door and leaning so I could hear.

"What's going on?" I heard Mr.Strange ask.

"...She's sick Steph...really sick..." Mr.Stark said and my heart sank...What?!

"I'm sure she'll pull through." Mr. Strange said.

"She wants me to be Peter's legal guardian..." Mr. Stark said and my eyes widened...Is she that bad!?

"What did you say?" I heard Mr.Strange ask and frowned.

"I said...I'd think about it...I wanted Peter's opinion but she says if he knows he'll never make a decision cause he'll cling to her till it's too late...I don't want him to hate me Steph. I have enough family members that hate me...I don't want to add on to that." Mr. Stark said and I frowned...I wouldn't hate Mr. Stark...Mr.Stark is nice...I startled when my phone buzzed...They moved Aunt May? I opened the text and my eyes widened...Wade says they moved her to the best private room and says it's all paid for...Did Mr.Stark do this? Wait...

Peter- Wade, Why are you there?

Wade- Well you were really upset Petey and I saw you leave so I thought I'd keep an eye on things

"Aw." I said my heart-melting.

"He won't hate you." I heard Mr.Strange say.

"You don't know that."

"Would you sign the papers if he said he was ok with it?" I felt my breathing catch...Would it be ok? Mr.Stark as my dad? Aunt May thinks he'd do a good job and I trust her judgment. What does Mr.Stark think?

"Of course Steph...I love the kid, you know that." I heard Mr.Stark say and I smiled...So Mr.Strange wasn't lying."I don't want to be my father though...what if I'm shit at being a parent?" You're nothing like that ass.

"Well, you can either be shit at being a parent or be a shitty parent," Mr.Strange said.

"There is a difference?" Mr.Stark asked.

"Yes, being shit at being a parent means you've never really done it and you forget shit sometimes. Being a shitty parent is having a kid and treating them like shit...You will not be a shitty parent...Just ask yourself in a situation what Jarvis would have done for you." Mr. Strange said.

"I don't know what to do..." Mr.Stark sighed...He sounds tired.

"What would Jarvis have done?" I heard Mr.Strange ask.

"Sign the papers even if it meant me hating him," Mr.Stark said...

"Is there any chance she'll pull through?" I don't think I should hear this...

"I have some people looking into it but right now there is no cure or treatment for the type of cancer she has." I frowned...Aunt May must have been sick a long time then...Why didn't she tell me?!

Wade's Pov:

"Well hello." I froze...Shit. Abort Mission!

"Hi," I said and May smiled.

"Have you been sitting by my bed long?" She asked....Uh...What do I say? Lie! Run! "So...Who has you watching me? Peter?" She asked.

"I mean he didn't ask me to," I said and she smiled.
