After greeting all the quests and indulging them with expensive champagnes and fancy dishes, Parker escaped the crowd to the table at the very deepest corner of the party.
He took off his suit and tie, unbuttoned a little, rolled his sleeves up and just drink none stop. In his head he was repeating your voice, tried not to let it kill him alive.
Don't know for how long but the next thing he knows was that his table was full with empty glasses and he can't seem to find his suit that he threw it away. So Peter decided to call out the waiter for a couple more glasses of champagne.
Someone stopped him and told the waiter to go, it was Steve Rogers.
"What happened?" He asked with the softest smile, joining Peter at the table.
"Nothing."
"Don't hide it, you're a mess. It's about (Y/n) right?" Peter sighed because Steve always knows when something's wrong.
"Yes." He admitted.
"What exactly happened? I could give you some advice."
"Did Tony told you to come?" He said sarcastically.
"No and Tony is taking care of the party while the owner like yourself is wasting his youth on alcohol." Steve took a glass off Peter's hand.
"You sounds like a dad."
Steve smiled. "So. What is going on? I thought you two are back together."
"We're over, I guess."
"And you're fine with that?"
"Of course not. Can you please let me drink some more."
"No. Not until you go get the girl back."
I groaned as i ran my fingers through my hair. "She's seeing someone new. What can i do?"
"And what you're going to let him have her and live off alcohol and sorrows from now on?" He asked, showing a little intense look.
"You don't sound like Steve."
"I don't know about that Peter, one thing i do is you should never wait for something to happen, it always too late, you want something just go get it back. Trust me, never wait until it's too late, i learned it the hard way."

You stepped out of the taxi in your nike shoes, look up to the luxury hotel the party took place. It's late at night, the party is almost over, you wish he'd still be here.
The guards won't let you in judging by the clothes you're wearing that is not a night gown, but once seeing your face he stuttered your surname and bowed.
"Mr, Parker is at the table near the ballroom, Madam."
"Thank you." You said, thinking he must be a new guard because you have never seen him before.
You felt your heart racing, with concern and guilt, will he want you back? He might probably really gave up and hooked up with many girls already, it won't take long for him to charm someone, you had some experiences.
You started running, maybe he already went back to his tower, and calling him will be useless if he doesn't want you no more. Please, don't be.
You opened the door just to bumped into Peter who was also running out to chase after you, both of you rolled down the ground.
The next thing you realize was that he was on top.
It was a complete silence of staring, you looked upon his brown eyes, all the feelings that you hid away comes right back. He looked down on you, and grinned in the softest way, that you will never expect to see from him.
"Ms.(L/n)." He said, almost a whisper.
"Mr Parker." You replied.
"I see you came back." He was happy, and he showed it.
"I see you were not ready to give up on me." You said.
"So Harrison thing was a lie, was it? I bet he didn't even know he became your boyfriend."
"Oh, how smart of you. I wonder if you were this confident before seeing me." You smirked. "You're so selfish you know that? You can't just hold someone onto you if they don't want to. I thought you were gonna handcuffed me and tied me to a chair or something."
"Well i know she still love me."
"Who even said that." You teased.
"Me."
"I don't love you no more remember? I don---" You were going to tease some more but he shut you up with a kiss.
All it takes was one touch and you were totally captivated by him, you remember the test of his lips, he remember the way you moan softly back. You wrapped your arms around his neck, couldn't stop, and don't see why you should.
Until Tony Stark and the rest of the avengers opened the door out of the ballroom just to see you two kissing on the expensive mahogany floor.
"Oh My GOd--" All members gasped at the same time.
You pushed Peter away he almost fell to the side and quickly stood up as if nothing ever happened, trying to hide the embarrassment, but Peter was laughing through the whole thing.
"At least get a room, Peter?" Tony complained but quickly gave a happy wink to Peter.
"Were they going to make love?" Thor whispered at Sam.
"Apparently." Sam whispered back.
"It's okay for human? I mean, here? On the floor at the hallway?" Thor wasn't being sarcastic he just really didn't know.
"You're leaving?" Peter asked Tony.
"Yes, we are all leaving, it is way to late now, you should go to sleep, or, do whatever-- Hey it's a hotel, this place i mean, you two can stay."
"No, i'm leaving as well." You felt so embarrassed so you look away not letting them see your burning cheeks.
"Stay." Peter told you.
"..." You looked at him, feeling unsure.
"Please." He begged, not command.
"Fine..." You said softly.
"Alright guys let's go!" Tony dragged everyone out, Scott patted Peter's back so proudly, almost everyone teased Peter before they leave about the scene that just happened.
They're finally gone, you sighed out loud at Peter. "Oh god, that was embarrassing..."
"That was hilarious." He laughed.
"Well you have a weird taste of humor Peter, like why did they have to be leaving right now just to see us kissing."
"What's wrong with kissing, everyone kiss."
"On the freaking floor."
"Tony told me some stories and trust me his experience was worst."
You pouted more and more and tried to hid your face behind the palm of your hand, Peter grabbed your wrist away to see your face. "So, do you want to stay here tonight? Let me pay you back for leaving you?"
You know the meaning behind his words exactly and it took you a while to finally nodded. "Okay, i'm sorry for trying to push you away too, i was going through a mental breakdown, I guess."
He smiled so sweet. "Come with me then."
He took your hand like he never wanted to let go, taking you away from the ballroom to the lobby, checking in and headed up to the elevator. He pick the rooftop suite room, like he always does because he know you'd like the view.
You sat down on the chair, relaxing from a long day, Peter walked around the room to prepare stuff, like candles.
"Oh, you're lighting up candles for me?" You chuckled at the fact that he's trying not to be a control freak like before and show some adorable side.
He stopped by to give you a kiss then light up more candles. "We're going to need some music too, wait a second."
Parker headed to another room to pick a song for the classic record player as you wait in the bedroom. He could play soft piano record, or even Marvin gaye, but in the end he chose soft romantic song.
He took the large Phonograph record out of it's cover as a thin paper fell from it to the floor.
Hesitantly, Peter kneeled down to pick it up, the smell of Lavender from the paper hits his nose, he flipped it over to read a tiny message written by a messy handwriting.
We warned you it was not a good idea to leave her alone.
When he ran back to the room you disappeared.
