Peter Parker lost his uncle in a robbery. Then his aunt to grief, too broken to stay. Now he's living with Tony Stark-the man who once rewound time to save the world, but won't do the same for Peter's family.
Grief turns to anger. Anger turns to blame.
But some things can't be undone-no matter how much it hurts.
-
Peter's voice cracked, fury mixing with heartbreak. "So you just won't help. Even when I'm falling apart?"
Tony took a step closer, his voice softer now, trying to reach past the anger. "I am trying, Peter. I'm here. I'm not walking away."
But Peter shook his head, tears pricking at the corners of his eyes. "That's not enough. You're not enough."

Peter Parker was alone. He never expected to find a home, much less a family after May's passing. He made a promise to himself to never become attached to someone, lest he lose them. When he accidentally texts Tony Stark, will he be able to keep that promise? Tony Stark was lonely. He was a billionaire, philanthropist, ex-playboy, and a genius! But something was missing. Something important. Tony missed his family. He can't get back his old one, but every night he wonders 'is it possible to create a new one?' I don't own Marvel or anything.

Spying on Spider-Man
"I didn't even know you were my uncle, and now that I'm stuck living with you, the first thing you want me to do is spy on my best friend?!" I yelled, annoyed. "I mean, yeah. Is that a problem?" Tony asked. "Yeah! You didn't know about my mom! You don't know what I'm going through! The only person that's there for me is Peter, and now you want me to do stuff behind his back!" He sighed. "I know, you're right. But, I really need you to do this." I looked at him. "Hell no. I'm not going to do it just because you need me to." "Just... go to his house. Now. You'll see why." "Fine. But just so you know, I'm not going there for you. I'm going there to see my friend. And I may not be back until tomorrow." I turned to walk out, but I turned back real quick. "Oh, and I'm taking one of your suits. Stipulations, you know?" Alison "Allie" Stark never really had a lot of friends. But, there was one person who has been her bestie since kindergarten: Peter Parker. No matter what, they've been there for each other, especially when Allie's mom has cancer. But, there's one thing that Peter never told her: he is Spider-Man. So, when Allie's mom died and she figures out that she's the niece of Tony Stark, at first she's reluctant to accept his request to spy on Peter. But, after his secret is revealed, the adventures begin. And she couldn't be happier. I mean, who wouldn't be ecstatic to get to spend all the time in the world with their crush since fifth grade? THIS BOOK DOES CONTAIN LANGUAGE!! I WARNED YOU!! Another note: Not every single word is mine and mine alone. I do copy some dialogue directly from the movie Spider-Man: Homecoming. I do this to keep the main storyline as close to the original as possible, just with some added characters and side stories. The MCU is one of my favorite things in the world, so I want to give them credit where credit is due.Complete
Let's find love Again.❤️
I am terrible at giving descriptions but anyway. This story is taking place after Avengers infinity war. 'He knew I needed him but still he wasn't here.' Tony yelled. 'He too needed to fight and save everyone Tony, you need to understand.' Bruce replied. 'He doesn't know what we lost and I feel he doesn't even care.' Tony screamed. 'Steve will be here, Tony you just need to have patience.' Bruce tried his best to explain. 'I just don't know why I feel hurt whenever I feel things are not right between me and Steve, we are not even that close friends.' Tony thought to himself. What do you think Tony is exactly talking about here? Will Steve return to The Avengers? Will Tony understand what was wrong? Will Tony realise why he is hurt when something happens between him and Steve? Will things work out or will it become worse? Give this a read to find out. PS: THE COVER IS MINE!💕Complete

Be Like You [COMPLETED]
[COMPLETED BUT UNDER REVISION} ok I take it back I haven't looked at this in like two years & it's so bad but y'all seen to like it🥴 (I've considered properly revising it but I don't wanna lose all the comments yall have left) Peter Parker's aunt always hurt him--both physically and emotionally--after his Uncle Ben's death. He could always tolerate it and hide his scars and bruises but, when she finds out he's Spider-Man, everything shatters. He has nowhere to turn except to his mentor, Tony Stark: the man he strives to be like. This isn't a Starker shipping fic, it's where Tony takes in Peter because everyone loves a wholesome and funny fanfiction. I've no idea how often I'll update but enjoy, I guess. #3 in irondad #1 in spidermanfanfiction #3 in marvel #2 in avengers WARNINGS: Language and mentions of depression, possibly suicidal thoughts/actions, and abuse.Complete
Spiderson and Irondad
This story is all about Spiderson and Irondad - a.k.a. Peter "I swear I can handle it" Parker and Tony "absolutely not, you're grounded" Stark. Expect found family feels, emotional disasters, chaotic hero antics, and Tony trying (and failing) to keep Peter out of trouble. There'll be fluff, a sprinkle of angst, maybe some tears (mine included), and plenty of "dad Stark" moments no one asked for but everyone secretly loves. Basically: science bros + superhero chaos + father-son feels = this story 💥🕸️ // all characters and images do not belong to me
Ill Dry Your Tears

So when there's no one left to save the day, he turns to the only person he feels like he has left. Tony Stark ⚠️ ahead is tears, triggering and taunting up at night thoughts ⚠️ 7/8/19 - #1 Ironman 7/10/19 - #1 StarkFamily 7/10/19 - #2 PeterAndTony 7/10/19 - #3 StarkIndustries 11/23/19 - #1 AvengersEndgameComplete

Peter Parker Stark 1 (IronDad & SpiderSon fanfic)
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.Complete
