3rd POV
Peter was feeling extremely sleepy the next day at school but he somehow managed to get through the day.
He was really excited to go to the internship again, since he had a lot of fun the day before.
He happily went to Stark Industries and spoke to the receptionist for a bit before it was time for his internship. She was really friendly and Peter felt comfortable around her.
He got into the elevator but then he realized that he forgot what level he was working on yesterday.
"Um Friday. Which button do I press?" Peter asked.
"You don't need to push any buttons to get to the penthouse, I'll take you there everytime you come for the internship," Friday said and took him to the penthouse.
"Thanks Friday, could you remind me where the lab is?" Peter asked when he stepped out of the elevator.
Friday directed him to the lab where Tony was already waiting for him.
Tony had a long day, Pepper had refused to visit the therapist when though she agreed the previous night.
He had to practically force her to go and she didn't even say much but at least it was a start. He made sure to get rid of all the alcohol from the house and told Friday to decline her requests to order more.
He started feeling a little dizzy, since she had gotten ten minutes of sleep in almost two weeks and he couldn't remember when was the last time he ate.
Tony tripped over a screwdriver on the floor and fell on his face.
"Boss Peter has arrived," Friday informed him.
''Okay, thanks Fri,'' Tony said and forced himself to get off the floor.
"Your glucose levels are extremely low, I recommend that you eat something and then sleep," Friday said.
"I slept last night and I ate sometime yesterday," Tony said.
"You had ten minutes of sleep Mr. Stark and the last meal you had was breakfast, two days ago," Friday said.
''I will eat later and I'll think about a siesta," Tony said.
"But boss-"
"Mute," Tony said.
"Mr. Stark, " Peter said catching Tony's attention.
"Peter, when did you get here?" Tony asked wanting to facepalm because Peter may have heard his conversation with Friday.
"What a great example to set for the kid," Tony thought to himself bitterly.
"I just got here," he responded.
"So how was the party last night? Did you have fun with Liz?" Tony asked.
"It was great. Yeah Liz and I talked a lot," Peter said.
"That's good, I call dibs on being your kid's godfather," Tony joked.
"You're old enough to be the grandfather, " Peter said teasingly.
"First of all, I'll be a young, hip grandfather and what did I tell you about not having kids yet," Tony said.
"No one says hip anymore Mr. Stark unless they're referring to their actual hip and you were excited about being the godfather two seconds ago!" Peter said.
"It was a trick question! I wanted to see if you listened to me," Tony said.
"You didn't even ask a question," Peter said and facepalmed.
