The adorable Spider-Man (who is misunderstood by everyone)

8 - Loki & Peter = Siblings <3

After their second meeting Peter and Loki met a few more times. A month went by and they met at least once a week, often in a cafe but sometimes they met on Lokis floor. Peter hadn't met any other Avengers yet, they didn't want to rush things (and Loki didn't like people coming to his floor). Clint was allowed on Lokis floor a few times, but mostly it was just Peter and Loki.

They actually got along so well that Loki had told Peter a bit about his insecurities and anger issues. They created a numeral system from 1 to 10, with one being pretty calm and 10 the worst, like attacking New York.

Peter also had a numeral system about his well being, green for physical pain and red for his mental health. It took a while, but Loki refused to use his system when Peter wasn't well.

So, each of them had to tell the other if one of their numbers got over 5.

Oh! And Loki found out about Spider-Man.

He once scared Peter so much that he jumped to the ceiling. Loki didn't know about Spider-Man before, but Peter thought he could trust him and he was his first real friend, so he told him everything.

That was also when Loki told Peter about himself. Peter was crying by the end, but Loki just said that it was ok, and better now because Peter was there for him.

So naturally, Peter was feeling pretty good. He found a new friend and he had someone to help him was he ever in trouble. But Parker luck was always quick to catch on. He was surprised that a month went by with nothing big happening.

But now, as he was swinging around as Spidey, he could hear an explosion. He was fast to swing in that direction.

After arriving he could see a bunch of bank robbers in masks of the Avengers trying to rob a bank with weird looking guns.

Oh what irony. And that after finding out that the Avengers seem to hate him.

"What's up guys? You forgot your PIN number?"

He fought them and quipped as usual, but he was reckless and underestimated the weapons. They blowed up the bodega across the street and when Peter went to save the owner and his cat the robbers got away.

Not his best moment.

To top it off, when he swung away he could hear the shutter of a camera. That was gonna be a nice headline tomorrow.

When he arrived at his "home", an old warehouse that gave a bit protection of the rain but wasn't really that warm, he was lucky that it was July, so it was pretty warm, he was still sore from being thrown around by the weapons. He had to investigate that later on. Those weapons seemed powerful and he had never seen technology like that before.

He checked if he had any new messages, and saw one new message from Loki.

Loki

Good night. I hope you are safe on your patrol.

It was sent a while ago, but he still decided to answer.

Peter

Don't worry about me! Good night

Now with a small smile on his face Peter went to sleep in his makeshift bed.

~~~~~~~~~~

Peter awoke to the ringing of his phone. He was still groggy from just waking up and didn't look at the caller ID, but he it was clear who it was anyway. The only person who would call Peter was Loki. Sometimes Clint as well, but that was rather uncommon.

"Yeah? I'm awake... Who's'it?"

Loki's concerned voice cleared Peter head further and he was nearly completely awake now.

"Peter! I just saw the news. Are you ok? And I'm sorry I woke you up."

Peter smiled a little. Loki's concern was sweet and he was happy to hear someone cared about him.

"It's ok. And I'm ok, I'm not hurt."

It was true, his wounds already healed. It was all thanks to Loki, because they went to eat at a restaurant the day before. Loki always paid for him, which made Peter feel bad, but he couldn't really pay for himself so he just made sure to show Loki how thankful he was every time.

Loki let out a relieved sigh.

"That's good. Do you want to come to the tower? That way I can check on you to make sure you are really ok. And then we can have a girls boys day. I liked what you did with my hair last time and I could ask the Scarlet Witch if she wants to join us. If you want to meet her. I think she doesn't hate me and she is good with make up."

"Of course! And I would love to meet her! Maybe we could make cookies after, if we still have time before my shift starts."

"I still want to come to your work place and hear you sing. Why won't you let me, child?"

A blush crept onto Peters face.

"You know very well why! It's embarrassing to sing in front of someone I know! Sometime maybe. Anyway, should I come right now?"

"Yes, that way you can eat breakfast with me. I will start making your pancakes now, so better hurry, Peter."
