Hey Einstein


Hey uhh a lot of you might already know what this is but I haven't used this character/storyline before and wanted to see how I'd do.
Definitely a major TW: sexual assault, panic attacks

Peter woke up early that Saturday morning. He yawned and stretched out his arms hearing the birds chirping outdoors. All was peaceful and silent before he heard crashing and yelling coming from down the hall.

He laughed as he swung his legs over the side of the bed and made his way into the kitchen to see his adoptive father Tony Stark dropping the frying pans everywhere and pairing that with a few choice words.

Steve of course heard these words from the couch and muttered an exasperated,
"Language."

Peter laughed at the sight and took a seat beside his Aunt Nat and Uncle Bucky. They smiled and Bucky ruffled Peter's hair.
"Hey kid, sleep good?" He asked.

Peter nodded, and he was actually telling the truth for once. He hadn't had very many nightmares lately, it was great.

Peter was about to say something when his eyes caught something on the tv Steve was watching.
"Uncle Steve could you turn that up please?" He asked with a slight tremble in his tone.

He ran over to get a closer look at the tv to make sure he wasn't seeing things. Unfortunately for him, he wasn't.

The headline on the news read:
"Criminal Skip Westcott escapes prison."

Peter's face paled and his throat began to close. No one seemed to notice quite yet but they were all watching the tv intently, wondering why Peter was so interested.

Tony came over to talk to his son,
"Hey don't worry kiddo I'm sure the cops will find him. Is he someone Spider-Man put away?"
He figured it was just some petty thief Peter stopped one day, not that big of a deal.

Peter didn't speak, only shaking his head as the tears began to well in his eyes. Nat was the first to notice this and came over to hold Peter's shoulders. At the touch he immediately flinched back and dropped to the ground struggling to breathe.

Everyone ran over and began poking and prodding at him to see if he was okay. Tony was hugging him, Steve was checking his pulse, Bucky was ruffling his hair and Nat was still holding him by his shoulders.

Peter tried everything he could to hold his panic in but he couldn't. He violently shook his head and tried to scream, but it came out as more of a whimper.
"P-please don't touch me..."

Everyone froze and took a step back away from Peter. Not sure what caused the outburst since Peter was always one for hugs and hair ruffling. Tony got down to Peter's eye level, but kept a distance away.

"Pete, what's going on?" Tony asked with concern. Peter looked at the ground as a tear fell. He shook his head.
"You'll all hate me if I tell you."

Bucky scoffed.
"Yeah right kid we could never hate you."
Steve nodded.
"Exactly kiddo, now please tell us what's wrong."

Peter sighed. He looked up at his family, his big doe brown eyes filled to the brim with tears threatening to spill. He sighed and gulped.
"W-well that guy on the-the news.... the one that escaped prison."

Nat nodded.
"Did you catch him during patrol?"

Peter shook his head.
"N-no i-i wasn't Spider-Man when i knew him."
Everyone was confused now.

"Who was he kid? What happened?" Tony asked.

Peter took a deep breath.
"He-he was my babysitter when I-I was younger. Umm he-he used to call me Einstein an-and do these... things that-that" Peter was cut off by his throat closing shut. He took an angry breath and forced out the words.

"He raped me."

Everyone fell silent. No one even moved a muscle. All they wanted to do was hug their poor kid, to make everything better but they knew that they couldn't.

Peter panicked when no one said anything.
"I-Im sorry, I shouldn't have said anything now you all hate me and think I'm d-disgusting, which I-I am and I-I can't..."

Tony's head snapped up and he cut Peter off.
"Nuh uh kid, you do not apologize here. That son of a bitch is the one who is disgusting."

Steve nodded in agreement with Tony.
"I'm gonna fucking kill him."

Peter gave a light chuckle to Steve swearing, which made everyone calm down a bit. He rushed forward and hugged his dad, who of course hugged him back instantly.

"Thanks for not hating me guys, you're the first people I've ever told."

~Time skip... that's uh poor choice of words~

"Bye dad! I'm going on patrol for a little while." Peter called out to his dad and the team.

"Bye Pete be safe!"

Peter opened the widow and began swinging through the city happily. He stopped a few muggings, robberies, nothing too serious until he heard whimpering come from an alley.

He quickly made his way over and his blood turned cold when he saw the sight in front of him.

He saw Skip Westcott, cornering a small boy who looked to be no older than 9 in the corner of the alley. The boy was crying as Skip moved closer to him.

Peter grew furious, refusing to allow what happened to him happen to anyone else. Not if he could stop it.
"HEY! Get the fuck away from him you creep!"

Skip turned around, a smirk on his face. The little boy saw his chance and bolted out of the alley to safety, which Peter was thankful for. But what he heard next made him freeze.

"I don't believe it, Einstein is that really you?"

Peter's breathing began to quicken and he trembled as Skip came closer to him. His menacing smirk grew wider when he realized he was right.

"Oh Einstein, how I've missed you."

Skip pushed Peter up against the alley wall. Peter knew he should fight back, he had to fight back... but he couldn't. It was like his body couldn't move. He was paralyzed in fear.

"p-please d-dont, please..."

Skip laughed and shook his head.
"Aw i missed hearing you say that buddy."

Skip began rubbing Peter's shoulders and moving his arms down his torso.
"Wow Einstein, you've grown since the last time."

Peter began to cry silently as he willed for his body to just work again, just punch him! For fucks sake why couldn't he just move or yell! Anything!

Skip came close to Peter's ear and whispered, his beer smelling breath burned Peter's neck as he kissed it, leaving a dark hickey.
"I'm gonna enjoy this."

Something in Peter snapped. He screamed and punched Skip hard in the nose, not with full strength since he was still terrified, but it was enough for him to push him off of him and swing back to the tower quickly.

Peter burst through the window and ripped off his mask. Everyone stood up quickly when they saw the tear streaks down Peter's face and how his whole body shook.

Steve made a move to come closer to Peter, and he froze like all of the muscles in his body seized up and he dropped to his knees sobbing, holding his face in his hands.

Everyone was concerned, but really confused until Natasha noticed a dark purple mark on Peter's neck. Her eyes began to tear up as well and she dropped to her knees in front of Peter, not touching him but speaking softly.

"Oh Peter... I'm so sorry."
This only made Peter sob louder, but he let himself fall into Natasha's arms. She hugged him tightly and rubbed circles on his back, something that seemed to help him calm down a bit.

After a few minutes of silence, other than Peter's sobs which eventually turned to the occasional hiccup, Peter let go of Nat and sat up.

"Kid, you wanna tell us what happened?" Tony asked quietly. Peter looked up at them and nodded.

"I-it was Skip... he-he was gonna hurt a kid in an alley. I went to stop him b-but he recognized my voice a-and trapped me there. It-it was like I couldn't move... I-I was so scared."

Everyone tensed thinking about what may have happened. Bucky asked what everyone was thinking.
"Did he..."

Peter knew what he was implying and shook his head.
"N-no i got away before he could do anything..."

Tony slowly moved forward and crouched beside Natasha in front of Peter.
"Can i hug you kid?"

Peter wanted nothing more than to say yes. Let his dad help him but for some reason he couldn't. His body burned in the spots where Skip touched him.
"P-please dont... i-im sorry i-i can't, I-"

Tony felt the lump grow in his throat but ignored it. He shook his head.
"Hey it's okay Pete, how about Aunt Nat takes you to your room so you can get some sleep okay? We'll figure this out in the morning."

As soon as Natasha stood up and brought Peter far enough away Tony broke down. Steve came up to him and helped him stand back up.

"That bastard made my son afraid to hug me... we gotta find him."

Steve and Bucky nodded in agreement.

Once Natasha returned saying Peter was asleep, Tony pulled up the footage from Peter's mask of that night. As awful as it was, they needed to know what happened to Peter so he wouldn't have to tell the story to them and relive it.

They watched everything from Peter's point of view, from the moment he dropped down into the alley. They watched as their kid screamed at Skip to let the boy go, and when he turned around the boy ran away.

Then they gasped in horror when the man pinned Peter to a wall and began touching him, their hearts shattered when they heard him pleading to be left alone, then saw as Skip left him the hickey on his neck. They heard what Skip would say to him and the sentence that made Peter snap out of his shock. They were furious.

"Let's go kill that son of a bitch."

Okay jeez that was kinda really disturbing I'm sorry i don't know if I should even post it but you're reading this right now so I guess I did. Thinking of making a part two if anyone wants it?

thanks for reading!
