The blip (sequel to my stupid spider-boy)

Chapter 10

(Ferryn's P.O.V.)

*a year and a half later*

About a month after dad got back Pepper found out she was pregnant. Of course Dad started bragging that his dream was right but he was really happy. We all are. This good news made everyone feel a bit happier. Because of the new addition to the family, dad decided that we were gonna move out of the avengers facility. About a month after that,  as soon as he was back to feeling better we moved out. Harley decided to move into his own apartment and got a job around the same time we moved out. Dad offered to let him continue living with us but Harley didn't want to intrude any longer, even though he wasn't. He's still in the New york city area but we moved further upstate. I go to the city to visit with him at least once a week most of the time more. Morgan was born and so she's almost one now. I love her, she is the most adorable thing I've ever seen. I have had a lot of fun spoiling her. She's my little sister and she gets all the toys she wants.  Anyway it's been about a year and a half since the snap. We've been living in the cabin for about for over a year and things are starting to become normal again. Well a new normal. Very new. Dad and Pepper are finally having their wedding, just smaller than originally planned. It was just their closest people in their lives. The wedding is tomorrow and Pepper is trying on her wedding dress again. 

"This doesn't fit the way it used to. After Morgan I just don't look the same." Pepper complained as she looked down at the dress. 

"Pepper, you look beautiful! The dress is fixed and fits perfectly. Morgan just helped your curves a little. " I giggle a little as I finish lacing her dress up. "Turn around, look it's beautiful." I smile, as I help her turn to face the mirror. 

"Wow..." She whispers as she stares at her reflection.  "We are actually getting married." She says and I can see the tears in her eyes. 

"Yeah, a wife in less than 24 hours. But you've basically been married for much longer. You are just making it official." I smile and put my head on her shoulder as we both look in the mirror. "And you already have an amazing kid. Oh and Morgan." I say, making the both of us laugh. She pulls me into a tight hug.

"Thank you for your help. I know technically you are my kid but you're more like my little sister most of the time." She said as she pushed my hair away from my face.

"Yeah, love you Pepper." I say hugging her tighter. "Alright, let's get you out of this dress. I have to go get Harley, he's staying the night for the wedding tomorrow." I say as I start to loosen the laces of her dress.

"You're bringing him as your date, right?" she asks, smirking at me. I roll my eyes. She and dad think Harley and I should get together. They are sure Harley likes me and think I like him too but  I'm not sure I'm ready for that yet and I think Harley knows that. It's been well over a year now, but I'm not sure I'm ready for a relationship again.  

"I don't know, maybe." I say, thinking about it. I grab my bag and keys and see that she's gotten dressed.

"You should, it's a good small step for you. I think it would be good for you." She says as she follows me out of the room. I take a second to think about it. Peter had helped me become more laid back and let me have more fun. After the snap I kind of went back to my old ways. I stayed focused on working and I don't really allow myself to have free time other than time with Pepper, dad, and Morgan. Well, except to go see Harley. He does mean a lot to me. Maybe I should ask him to be my date.

"Yeah, I think I will. Thanks, Pepper I smile and she pulls into another hug.

"Go get your boy." She said when she pulled away. I laugh and leave to go to my car. I get out to my car and sit for a second. I miss Peter a lot and I'm not sure that I'm over him yet. Almost everything I do reminds me of him. Though over the past few months, Harley and I have gotten a lot closer and I do like him. I think that trying at a relationship with him will be good. I finally started the car and drove to the city. After driving for a long time and listening to several podcasts. I made it to Harley's apartment. I walk up the stairs and knock on his door.

"Hey Ferryn." He greets me when he opens the door.

"Hi, are you ready to go?" I ask as he steps out of the way so I can come into the apartment.

"Yeah, just about. I've just gotta grab my bag and my suit." He says as he walks back into his room.

"What color is your tie?" I ask, slightly nervous. I wasn't sure how to ask him if he wanted to go as my date because he's already going.

"It's blue, why?" He asks from the other room.

"Well,do you have a crimson one?" I say, holding my hands behind my back nervously. He comes back out of his room with his things.

"Why?" He looks at me confused.

"So you could match my dress." I say smirking a little, hoping he would catch on.

"I still don't understand. Why are you being so weird?" He laughs as he sits his things down on his couch.

"I'm being weird, cause you aren't catching on and I'm already nervous." I say with a nervous laugh and looking down a little.

"Why are you nervous." He asks as he walks over to me.

"Well, I'm trying to ask you to go to the wedding with me." I say looking up at him.

"I am already going with you, so what does that have to do with a tie?"

"Because your tie should match your date's dress." I say stepping closer to him.

"Wait.. Really?" He asks, smiling at me. I nod smiling bigger. "I guess we need to stop to get a tie on the way. Cause I only have one tie." We both laugh and I lightly lace his hand with mine.

"Come on then. We better get going cause I want to get food too." I say and he smiles, looking down at our hands. He quickly grabs his stuff and comes back and laces his hand back with mine. I smile wider and we walk out to my car.
