Reaching out|Spider-Man|Peter Parker

Chapter Five

Peters pov

I opened my eyes and the light hit them which made me close my eyes so quickly. I groan and rub my eyes I was trying to get myself used to the light. Today felt nice, for once I felt like I was going to be okay.

I get up out of bed and walking over to my suitcase. I opened it to which none of my clothes in there. I was confused. I turn around and see that the closet door was opened. I open it and see everything was hung up.

I get out a plain white T-shirt I was going to put on a sweater to cover the cuts on my arms but, they were already healed. I guess perks of being Spider-Man. I put on a pair of jeans and white converses.

I walk out of my room and into the kitchen. Today I actually felt like eating. Today I felt like I was able to get through.

I grabbed an apple and took a bite. I ended up eating the whole thing. I haven't eaten in a while so my stomach was really enjoying the energy it was getting. I heard someone walk into the room, I look over my shoulder and see Tony Stark.

"Hey kid, it's good to see you up and around! I haven't seen you like that since-" he didn't even finish knowing that this was still a sensitive time for me and not wanting to bring down my already good mood, he just  continued to a different topic, "did you want to do anything today?" Tony asks me as I threw the apple core away.

"Uh I wasn't really planning on it, but I feel like I could be down to do something." I gave Tony a small smile. I knew I was eventually gonna get out of the house. It felt nice to feel how I am feeling right now. It felt like I was at peace! It was like a high.

"What do you want to do? I thought that we should hang out. I should kinda be here for you." Tony's face was lit up with a large smile. Be here for me? What does that mean, did he only want to hang out with me because my aunt died? I just quickly ignore the thoughts in my head. I can't let them bring down my mood. 

I look at him and rub the back of my neck with a nervous smile on my face, "Well I don't know... How about you pick." I tell him, there was too much to choose from to do, so best to leave it up to the big guy. 

"How about we go ice skating, I know it's only the end of November but it would be fun!" Tony had a large smile on his face and it kinda felt nice. I knew what he went through before he became 'Iron-man' so it kinda felt nce to seem him happy. He never used to smile or that's what the other avengers have said. So I guess, I've just always have seen him smile. I quickly nod my head, I go into my room and put on my shoes. 

I walk out with some money in my pocket. Tony grabbed a pair of keys that he had lying on the table. Was Happy not going to take us? Was Tony going to take us? It would be nice to have Tony driving us around. 

We get down stair and get into the one of the many cars that this billionaire has. I sit in the front seat and smile at him. He starts up the car and starts driving to the Ice skating rink. It was nice having someone like Tony in my life. He was the closets thing that I had to a father figure I had and I didn't want it to go away. 

~Le Time Skip~

We walk into a large building and people are skating around. It was nice to see people have happy faces on. In weird way it was comforting. Tony paid for our skates and we walked into the skating rink. I put my ice skates on and tied them tights and tucked the rest of the lace into my shoe. It was already starting to feel uncomfterable, but it was something that I could live with. I stood up and made my way to the 'Ice'. 

I was going to wait for Tony but I saw so many people surrounding him and asking him questions. I just sigh and roll my eyes and make my way onto the ice. I starting to Skate doing a few tricks here and there, but it was kinda lonely doing this by myself.
