Avengers One Shots Part Two!

Request 4

This was requested by @letmedie4good and I hope you like it :)

Peters class were going to the local nursery, it was apart of the new school curriculum for Peters year to go to local nurseries and look after a child to prepare them for parenthood.

"Do you like kids Peter?"
Ned asked on the bus.

"Well I mean if there was a kid in front of me I probably wouldn't throw a stone at them."
Peter said.

"You would throw a stone at a kid?"
Ned asked.

"No, I said I probably wouldn't."
Peter said.

The bus stopped outside the nursery and Mr Harrington stood up.

"Ok everyone stay sitting please."
He said and everyone ignored him.

After standing for a few minutes, the line finally started moving.

The class of twenty-one sixteen-year olds entered the nursery, being the quietest they've ever been.

"Ah good morning, you guys must be MidTown Tech!"
A cheery woman said.

"We are. And are you Miss Watson?"
Mr Harrington asked.

"I am, welcome to Queen's Nursery. I will pair you all up, but as there is twenty-one of you guys, there'll be someone who wouldn't have a partner."
Miss Watson said and went through the class, pairing everyone up.

Ned beamed brightly when he was paired up with his crush, Betty and MJ looked like she wanted to jump in front of a train when she was partnered with Flash.

"And what's your name young man?"
Miss Watson asked.

"Peter Parker, Miss."

"Well Peter, you won't have a partner, I hope you don't mind?"

"I don't mind Miss Watson."
Peter said politely.

"That's splendid!"
Miss Watson cheerfully said before walking to the front of the group.

"Now, two pairs will follow me and meet the baby that they will be looking after. Please stay quite as they might be sleeping."
Miss Watson said before gesturing for MJ and Flash and Ned and Betty to follow her.

Flash and MJ left the room first and Flash looked awkward holding the baby before MJ took the baby from him.

Ned and Betty left a few minutes after and Ned looked excited holding the baby.

The other pairs went in and left with babies, some crying and some quiet.

"Now Peter, this baby is very special. Her name is Gwen Stacey and she's only six months old, our youngest baby. She was named after her mother who sadly died after childbirth and the father is unknown. Would you like to hold her?"
Miss Watson asked.

Gwen had bright blue eyes and little tuffs of brown curly hair sprouting from her scalp.

"Ok."
Peter said awkwardly.

Miss Watson picked Gwen up and placed her carefully into his arms.

Gwen was woken up by the movement but didn't cry, she just looked up at Peter with her bright blue eyes.

"She trusts you."
Miss Watson commented.

"I don't know why she would trust me, I'm extremely clumsy."
Peter said, remember the bruises he got from walking into counters, doors, walls, lampposts, dropping his phone onto his face, rolling off his bed and swinging into billboards.

"Don't worry, if you think you're gonna drop her, just call me and I'll help you support her."
Miss Watson said kindly, patting Peters back.

"Now go and join your class. In a few minutes I'll be helping everyone with feeding the babies."
Miss Watson said.

"Ok."
Peter said and carefully left the room, keeping an eye on the bright eyed baby.

He sat next to Ned and Betty.

"Dude, she seems so interested in you!"
Ned said.

"Yeah. Her names Gwen. What's your baby called?"

"Poppy. She was found with a poppy in her basket so that's why she's called Poppy."
Betty said, dangling the baby toy in front of Poppy.

"That's nice."
Peter said and smiled when Gwen grasped Peters pointing finger.

~~~

After an hour of no crying from Gwen, she started bawling.

Peter tried everything that Miss Watson told him to do, rocking her, burping her and feeding her but she wouldn't quieten down.

Peter sighed, started rocking Gwen and sang under his breath.

When Peter stopped singing, the class were staring at him. He didn't care, Gwen had fallen asleep by this point.

"Didn't know you could sing, Parker."
Flash remarked harshly.

"At least people want to hear him sing, no one wants to hear you talk Flash."
MJ said and Peter blushed.

"What's the song?"
Someone asked.

"It's a Russian lullaby, my aunt taught it to me."
Peter said.

"It's creepy."
Someone else said.

"It is, but it does the job."
Peter said, shrugging his shoulders.

~~~

As Peter placed Gwen back into her crib at the end of the day, she stared up at him.

"Bye Gwen."
Peter whispered and Gwen giggled.

"She seems to have taken a liking to you Peter."
Miss Watson said.

"Yeah."
Peter whispered before straightening his back up.

"Go join your class before they leave without you."
Miss Watson said and Peter nodded, leaving the room.

~~~

Peter entered the apartment he shared with his aunt.

"May? Are you home?"
Peter asked.

"Yep! Just give me a minute."
May said.

She came out of her bedroom and hugged Peter.

"Hey Peter, how was the trip?"
May asked and Peter smiled.

"It was fun."

Hope you liked this :)
