(requested)

You and Peter had been dating for three weeks. Though it seemed every Avenger was against the idea of teammates being romantically involved (because of some protocol that they said Tony had, which he doesn't), neither of you cared for their opinions.

You liked Peter, despite the contrary to people believing you would have reason not to. He made you feel special and wanted and important, and he made you happier. And he was obviously whipped for you, wrapped around your finger and willing to do anything just to keep you safe. 

So, that's why it was so hard for you to believe you were even in this situation in the first place. 

Peter and you had been cuddling on the couch playing some of his video games when the group of supers had walked in, hands on their hips and stern expressions adorned on their faces. 

"What's up?" you greeted them with a smile. 

"We need to talk," Natasha said, motioning for the two of you to pause the game.

"It's important," Steve said. 

Peter glanced to you before grabbing the remote. "What is it? Is everything alright?"

"We feel it is in our best judgement if we have the two of you.." Steve trailed off, not sure how to word it. 

"You two need to break up," Sam concluded. 

Your expression changed completely, from worried to angry. 

"What the fuck? Why would we do that?"

"For the sake of the team-" Natasha started, but you cut her off. 

"Nat, for the last time! We've been over this! And I talked to Tony -- there's no protocol that you guys are using against us. You're trying to bullshit us in a game you don't know how to play."

"Don't take that tone with us," Steve warned. 

"Or else what? You're gonna make me stop feeling things?" You challenged, unafraid of the consequences. Peter was quiet, drinking in the conversation, not truly believing what was being negotiated. 

"We just think that for the sake of keeping things professional, that you and Peter should not be romantically involved."

"Oh so we can fuck but once feelings get involved it's game over?" 

"Jesus Christ," Bucky whispered. 

"That's not what we mean," Steve tried. 

"Right but that's what you're saying!"

"Nat's right, Y/N," Wanda cut in. "We should keep things professi-"

"Where was that five years ago when Natasha and Bruce were practically eye fucking, huh?"

"That was different!"Bruce defended himself. 

"Oh yeah?" You smirked, laughing sarcastically. "How's that? Is it because Pete and I are younger, is that it?" 

"Yes! Exactly. And because of that, you're naive and we fee-"

"Oh what the fuck do you know about feelings," you snapped at him. 

"I happen to know more than you," Steve said seriously. "There's no discussing, here. You two are over, and that's th-"

"If you knew anything about feelings," Peter's soft, quiet, damp voice cut in, silencing everyone. "then you would know that falling in love isn't a choice." 

Your eyes watered as his public confession, grabbing his hand with a thankful smile. 

"I don't want to know what made Peter cry," Tony's voice spoke up from the speakers. "But we need to talk," he finished, walking towards everyone. 

"Tony! Thank you! Tell the kids that the-" 

"They're not kids, Steve. We have no control over what they do and who they involve themselves with. They're both over eighteen, and we need to respect that," he concluded, sending you a quick wink. 

"Tony.." Natasha started. "You know we love you, but don't you feel it'd be better if the kids just di-"

"Look at it this way: at least now, they don't have to keep secrets from any non-Avenger; they don't have to lie about anything, and they can confide in each other for work related problems. And honestly?" He glanced to the two of you, "I think they're really good together."

You let out an exhale of relief, Peter squeezing your hand reassuringly. 

"Of course you'd side with the kids," Steve breathed out, annoyed and irritated. Natasha crossed her arms across her chest, nodding in agreement. 

"What the fuck does that mean?" Tony challenged. 

"I mean- ever since you and Pepper started working together and dating, shit has just been down the hill with the rules."

"I will have you know," Tony stood, chest practically against Steve's, "That she owns this building, and I have no problem escorting anybody who has an issue with her or us."

"It just makes sense," Bruce concluded. 

"Okay you know what?" you stood up, bringing Peter with you, hands still linked. "You can fight all you want about this, but I am not, for the life of me, ever going to stop seeing Peter. I can't stop seeing Peter because I can't stop feeling things for him. If you have a problem with that, save it for the wedding day," you finished, leading you and Peter out of the room. 

When you were down the hallway, Peter finally spoke. 

"Our wedding day?"

You swallowed, "You know- 'does anyone have any objections?'"

Peter's mouth formed an 'o' shape as he nodded, squeezing your hand again. When you reached his room, you closed the door behind you, and Peter engulfed you in a hug, arms wrapping around your figure as he whispered thank you's into your ear. 

"I'm so in love with you and it scares me."

You kissed his temple, "It scares me too. But I have you."
