Tony
Clint and Nat had picked up Peter. Normally I would've asked Happy but he was in Europe right now. So when they walked out of the elevator I was honestly surprised by their stupidity.
-Tony we gotta talk, Nat said seriously.
-Everyone can be forgetful. It's no big deal. But you're explaining to Peter how you forgot him at school, I said.
-What? No! He crawled jumped to the vents as soon as we stopped the car, Clint answered.
-You serious?
-Yeah. And there's something you should know, Clint said.
-Alright, I'm listening.
Peter
I entered my room through the vent and made a quiet landing on my bed. I looked around and closed the vent. Then I grabbed my backpack and started putting on my Spider-Man suit. When it was on I opened my window.
-Hey Friday!
-Yes Peter?
-If the others wonder where I am. Just tell them I went out on patrol.
-Sure thing
I smiled and swung of. Both Friday and Karen were such good A.I's. You could actually talk to them. Not like that Siri app. I even hacked my own phone to put Karen in there. Which was much more helpful. I swung through NYC and automatically headed towards Queens. What can I say? It was my home and I needed to protect it.
.....
I had stopped a robbery, helped an old lady pass the street, helped a snake in a tree and saved people from a burning building. Now I was changing into my "Peter clothes" in an alley. After that I put my suit in my backpack and ran across the street to Mr. Delmar's shop. I entered and looked around a bit. It's been a while. After May's death I was to upset to come here. A part of me still am. But I can't stop living.
-Next! Mr. Delmar's enthusiastic voice yelled.
I waited for the woman in front of me in the line to move before I stepped forward. Mr. Delmar was taping on the cash register and putting in the money.
-And what do you want? Mr. Delmar asked still taping on the cash register.
-A hello would be nice, I said.
Mr. Delmar looked up in shook. His whole face light up when he saw me. All it took was a few seconds before he had come out from behind the counter to hug me. I hugged him back and I realized I had missed him a little bit.
-Oh it's been so long. Where've you been? You had us all worried, Mr. Delmar said.
-I've had some....family and living issues, I answered.
-Oh what about May?
-She um....she was in a car accident..... didn't make it
-No....come here, Mr. Delmar said and hugged me again.
He hugged me for a while before he let go again. Then he held up a warning finger and looked me straight in the eyes.
-Peter listen to me. You've been through some shit and you've probably cried like shit. But you're getting back up. You know why? Because you're a guerrero. And guerreros like you get free sandwiches.
-For real!?
-Only this once. I know you Peter. And I know you wouldn't lie about something like this, Mr. Delmar said and went back behind the counter.
-Gracias! I'll have the usual, I said.
-Coming right up!
....
I left the shop and took a bite of my sandwich. Oh my god. Mr. Delmar is a genius. His sandwiches are probably the best in the states. Suddenly the door swung open and Paco who also works there starred angrily at me. Then he ran up to me and gave me a hard slap on my head.
A/N the next part will be translated from google since I've never even studied Spanish in school. I studied finnish instead.
-¿Dónde has estado? No has estado aquí desde siempre. Me he estado preocupando por ti, niño pequeño!
(Where have you been? You haven't been here forever. I've been worrying about you, little boy!)
-Lo siento Paco. He tenido que lidiar con algunas cosas....Mayo esta muerto, I said feeling a bit awkward talking to Paco about this.
(Sorry Paco. I've had to deal with some things .... May is dead)
-Oh Peter. Come here, Paco said and was about to hug me.
But suddenly Cap's shield came between us. I looked towards the street where I saw Mr. Stark, Cap, Natasha and Clint. People around us gasped and Paco looked suspiciously at me. But I was a little busy saving his life. So I stood in front of him to make sure they wouldn't shoot something at him.
-What on earth do you think you're doing!? I yelled.
-He hit you! Cap yelled back.
-It wasn't a hit. More like a friendly slap, I defended
-Créeme Pete. Si estuviéramos solos te hubiera derribado. Me estaba volviendo loco mientras me preocupaba por ti, Paco said.
(Trust me Pete. If we were alone I would have knocked you down. I was going crazy while worrying about you)
-No estas ayudando, I hissed at him. "Guys Paco's my friend. He just has some messed up ways of showing it"
(you're not helping)
-You sure? Mr. Stark asked.
-Yeah. Look! I said and hit Paco back.
He just laughed and rolled his eyes at me.
-Maybe you should go with them. Don't wanna mess with the avengers, Paco said.
-You sure?
-Just go.
-Bye Paco, I said and started walking towards Mr. Stark and the others.
-Enjoy! your motherfucking! sandwich!
-Oh my god, I sighed in embarrassment.
I quickly jumped in the car they had arrived with. The others soon joined me. Sadly none of them took the wheel. Probably because Friday was driving. Steve and Mr. Stark sat down next to me and Nat and Clint in front of us.
A/N there's six seats in the back seat facing each other.
Instead of starting a conversation I just continued eating my sandwich. It was good. Better than any conversation I could have with the others right now.
-You could tell us to our faces next time you're going out, Mr. Stark said.
-Sure, I mumbled.
Nat, Clint, Mr. Stark and Steve exchanged looks. I ignored it since I didn't feel like talking to them. It's hard being around them when they know what happened. Nothing is the same and I wish it could go back to how it was before. If only they didn't pity me.
-Peter you know we're here for you right? Nat asked.
-So if there's anything you wanna talk about School, girls, May. We're here to listen, Steve said.
-There's nothing to talk about, I said.
-Not even about the guys you hid from in the closet? Mr. Stark asked.
-You told him? I asked and looked up at Nat and Clint.
-Who were they? Mr. Stark asked.
-Classmates, I said.
-That you choose to hide from in the closet? Clint asked doubting.
-Maybe, I said and continued eating my sandwich.
-Peter....
-I don't wanna talk about it
-You know we're gonna get it out of you sooner or later, Nat said.
-I take that as a challenge, I said and ate the last of my sandwich.
