Ex Avenger, ex Spider-Man, ex hero and ex good little shy boy.
A 25-year-old Peter Parker turned out to be quite a surprise. Cold, calculated, genius devil of the world of business. However, even the devil can have his own demons. Isolated in his apartment Peter is tortured by ghosts of the past. He was running away from someone's face, someone's touch, smell, and kiss. Instead of facing the four years long pain, alcohol was the weapon of his choice. Even delirious, he would call his demons by the same name. Tony.
Tony Stark knows what he is capable of. Being one of the most powerful man in the world he'd never thought that he'll end up in this kind of situation. He'd never peg to be a father figure to anyone but one boy.
Peter Parker.
"M-Mr. Stark.." the shaking voice he heard never sound so small before.
"C'mere kid." He pulls the teen up to his feet and the teen quickly went in his arms. Not knowing what to do for a moment he allowed his body to automatically move and just put protective arms around the shaking child.
"A-Aunt May.. she's.. s-she's.." Peter almost chokes as his sobs gets louder, muffling over Stark's expensive shirt. He didn't mind the suit nor the shirt. He just wanted to protect the kid even more. He just had no idea how.
