You Should Have Squashed It


┏━━━━━━༻❁༺━━━━━━┓




The air was crisp as I walked the streets of New York. I had snuck out at sunrise after hacking into Tony's security system so I could get some fresh air. It was suffocating being in that building and every time I moved, someone was watching me. Bucky's eyes never left me and it was starting to annoy me.

People passed me without another look but I made sure I kept my hood over my head just in case. I didn't trust many people and the ones I did trust were back in London. I missed my home but never got the chance to go there often enough. My friends had escaped Hydra at the same time as me but they weren't experimented on. That I knew of. Either way, they got off lighter than me and always blamed themselves.

I was born enhanced. Don't know how and don't know why. But I also didn't want to find out why. If my parents didn't know then I wouldn't find out.

I heard a noise from the side of a building and heard someone muttering, clearly in pain. I walked towards the noise and found a kid in a Spider-Man costume, bleeding.

"Hey, Spidey,"

He cursed and pulled the mask over his face.

"Stop. I know who you are. Tony doesn't stop talking about you,"

He looked up at me, "Who are you?"

"Doesn't matter," I said pulling him to his feet and I patted his head, "Get yourself home,"

"Thanks...I guess," He said.

I tilted my head, "Did you need help stitching your wounds?"

He glanced down at the cut across his chest, "I...yeah. I can't go back to Tony looking like this,"

"Do you trust me enough to help you?"

"I have good senses," He took his mask off, "And if you name Tony by his first name, then I think I can. Either way, if you try anything I'll just kick your ass,"

I smiled slightly, "Do you have anything to change into? I have an apartment a few blocks from here?"




Peter sat as calmly as he could as I pierced his skin with the needle, quickly stitching him up. I didn't say anything to him because I wanted to concentrate. I wouldn't want him getting any unwanted scars. He had told me that his girlfriend would kick his ass if he wasn't being careful.

"All done," I muttered, wiping the skin clean of blood, "I have a shirt that will fit you,"

"Thank you," He winced, shifting on his seat, "You're surprisingly good. Are you a doctor or nurse?"

"Not really," I said, tossing the dirty gloves in the bin, "Own battle wounds or friends. Nothing too serious,"

"Right," Peter said and I left him alone to find him something to wear.

"They should fit you," I said handing him a shirt and trousers.

"Are they your boyfriends?"

"No chance," I laughed, "When my friends come here, they leave clothes here. They probably forgot they were here. Keep them. I don't want them back. The bathroom is through there,"

"Blue, thanks," Peter smiled and closed the bathroom door.

My phone buzzed in my pocket and I tutted seeing who the message was from.


Sargeant: Wher ar yu?


Jeez. He needed to learn how to text properly.


Sargeant: I fid yo


I snorted with laughter as Peter came out of the bathroom.

"Is everything ok?"

"Yup!" I said, "I have to get back to where I'm staying. Oh, and don't tell anyone where this place is. It's our little secret. If you get into trouble, you can come here. Just don't bring friends or your girlfriend,"

"Deal," He said shaking my hand, "Did you want me to take you back?"

"That's sweet but shouldn't you be getting home?"

"My aunt is away and I'd rather a lady not walk home by herself,"

"It's cute that you think you can look after me but you are more than welcome to,"

It didn't take long to get back to the Avenger's tower and everyone was waiting for me on the main floor. The lift doors opened and I stepped out, rolling my eyes.

"Where have you been?" Bucky asked, folding his arms.

"Sorry, daddy," I pouted, "Was I supposed to tell you where I was?"

"Don't call me that!"

"I needed some fresh air. I hate being cooped up," I said, "I wasn't going to run away. We have a deal. Not to mention I ran into a spider in help,"

"You should have squashed it,"

"Hey!" Peter said, stepping out of the lift, "That was rude,"

"Peter?" Tony said, "What the hell are you doing here?"

"I was the spider that needed help," Peter said, "I ran into some trouble,"

"Were you hurt?"

"I was,"

"Where? You need to see Bruce,"

"It's fine," I said, "I stitched him up and-"

"You? You stitched him up?" Bruce asked.

"Don't seem so shocked, Green One," I muttered, "Anyway, I'm going to my room to get away from everyone,"

"Wait," Tony said grabbing me, "We need to talk,"

"Oh, god!" I gasped, grabbing hold of his arm, "No! Please don't break up with me. I'll be better. I swear,"

"Shut up," He said, rolling his eyes, "I want permission to run tests on-"

"Fuck. No," I said, jabbing my finger into the bottom of his throat making him cough, "You stay away from me with those machines and needles. Stay. Away,"

"Blue, he isn't going to torture you," Steve said.

"No," I snapped, "No one is going to run tests on me ever again,"

"It won't hurt," Tony said.

"I said no!"

"Tony," Nat said, "She has said no. Why can't you take no for an answer?"

"Because men never do," I said walking away from them. I heard Nat sigh and she chased after me with Wanda, "What?"

"Girly night," Nat said, "Popcorn, booze and movies. Perfect combination,"

"I'll bring some Sokovian alcohol. Stronger than American alcohol,"

"I can't get drunk," I said quietly, "Unfortunately,"

"Even better," Nat smiled, "Don't worry about Tony. He isn't used to hearing no but he only wants to see if he can help you. Or at least find out why you were born enhanced,"

"Hydra tried to do that. I won't be tested on again,"

"That's ok," Wanda said, "Get changed and we can go to the cinema room before the boys decide to take over and put stupid movies on,"

"Wait for me!"

We stopped and turned around to see Peter rushing towards us, "Stop running. You'll tear your stitches,"

"I'll be ok. I heal faster," Peter said, "Can I join you? I don't want to spend too much time with them,"

"You want to spend time with women?" I asked, lifting my eyebrows up.

"I'm not in the mood for watching wrestling," He muttered.
