"Why are you looking at me like that?" Elaine whispered, trying desperately to ignore the strange feeling stirring in her chest.
"Like what?" he asked, quickly looking away as he rocked back on his heels.
"Like you know me."
Elaine Stark has always been the type of girl who keeps to herself. She hides away in her apartment, only leaving when she has to-mostly for school. She doesn't trust people, and she certainly doesn't let them get close.
Years ago, Tony Stark found Elaine inside a facility where children were being subjected to horrific experiments. She wasn't his biological daughter, but that never stopped him from becoming her father. He took her in, raised her, and gave her everything she could ever need. In return, Elaine gave him something she had never been willing to give anyone else: her trust.
Tony is the only person she has ever allowed into her life.
Until Peter Parker.
And as much as she hates people-and maybe even life itself-she can't stop herself from being drawn to him.
She hates that most of all.
