"So Pete, tell us about yourself. Why were you running like that before? Was there someone chasing you?"
They had arrived at Shwarma and Peter had already eaten too much in not a lot of time. Now he was slowing down to answer the question from the Falcon. Both of them looked amused and the Falcon watched Peter, amazed how fast he could eat without choking. Still he knew he had to slow down so it doesn't still happen, so questions it was.
"Well, there was actually, Sir..Mr Sam Wilson... Falcon Sir."
The Falcon was the one choking then. The Winter Soldier just laughed a little, the smile ever present with this kid. Peter tried to help the Falcon and stop him from dying, while looking extremely worried and didn't know what was going on.
"Did I say something wrong? The someone following me wasn't that bad. Just some thugs. Please don't die Mr Falcon Sir!"
The Winter Soldier seemed to sober up a little more and decided to save the kid from crying, because he sure looked like he wanted to in that moment.
"It wasn't your fault. It's just his first time being called... that."
He snickered a little more but continued nevertheless.
"Sorry. You know you can just call us by our first names? It's not like the whole world doesn't already use them, so we're already used to that you know. Also he's not dying. That would be too embarrassing, even for him. Now would you stop that Wilson! You're scaring the kid!"
Peter blushed again at that, but at least he didn't look like he wanted to cry anymore.
"I'm not scared! I was just... surprised, Mr Barnes."
By now the Falcon was breathing again, nearly at a normal rate, with some coughs here and there.
"That was ... a first. You surprise me more and more. It was such a blessing, that you ran into us. We're so lucky today. Right, Buck?"
Bucky rolled his eyes.
"Well, for once I agree with you."
At his words Peter once again looked like a ripe tomato.
"I didn't... It's... Thank you? I guess?"
To avoid any further embarrassment Peter continued stuffing food into his mouth. Just then two alarms went off. They were alarms on the phones of the two Avengers. They immediately looked alerted and stood up, looking at their phones, ready to fight whatever they had to fight now.
"What is it? What's happening?"
Peter jumped up as well. Looking worried.
Sam put his hand on Peter's shoulder and got him to sit again. This time without Peter flinching.
„It's just some Avengers Business. Don't worry about it. We will pay now and you can take your time with finishing your food. Sorry we have to go so suddenly, but we hope you understand..."
„Of course! Being an Avenger is more important than spending time with someone like me! You should hurry up and go save the world."
Peter smiled at them, but both of the Avengers looked a bit conflicted about what Peter said about himself. But they didn't have time to lecture him right now, so they did what Peter told them to do. Hurry up.
Just as they wanted to go out of the restaurant Bucky stopped and looked Peter straight in the eyes with a serious look on his face.
„Stay safe, you hear me! I'm sure we will meet again. Bye, Peter."
Then he smiled at him and followed Sam.
What a day. Peter was not sure if the Avengers needed his help or not. They have never fought together, but maybe today could be a first? But he did still finish his food. He didn't even know where he had to go. Maybe he could just go out and swing around until he found the threat. Or maybe the Avengers have already dealt with whatever it is until then. He will see.
