Tony's POV

Today is going to suck. Why? Well I was already feeling bad today, you know when you just have one of 'those days'. We're your moody for no reason? Yeah that's today. And, oh yeah, today's the day that my parents were killed, by Bucky Barnes himself. And I have to have him in MY house all day. Ugh, this is going to suck. Maybe I'll just work in the lab all day, lock the doors or whatever. It's gonna suck.

I walk down to the labs and get to working on anything that I can find. Well some of my suits need touching up from the last time I used them. So I get to it.

Meanwhile

Peter's POV

Today is going to be a great day! It's absolutely beautiful out side, you know what that means? Books and tea of course! It's 9:00 and I immediately get to brewing the tea, I have a feeling I'll be drinking a lot of this today. While the tea is brewing I head down to the library to get a couple of books. On my way back if grabbing four books I walk through the living room and see Laura with Cooper, Laila, and a very fussy Nathanial.

"Hey Peter. What are you gonna do today?" She asks while trying to calm Nathanial down.

"I'm gonna go outside and read, it is absolutely beautiful outside."

"Out side!" Her two eldest say.

"Oh no, not right now. Momma's busy and dad's training. Maybe later." She says as the kids faces drop.

"Mrs. Barton, I can watch them outside. Really it's no bother." I say.

"Oh no Peter, it's alright." She says.

"Really, it's fine. I have nothing better to do and I know you have your hands full."

"Are you sure?" She asks.

"Of course. I love your kids. They are so sweet." I say back.

"Only if you want too." She says sweetly.

"Yay! Thanks Peter!" Cooper says as I take them outside with my tea and books.

I laugh and say, "Oh it's no problem Coop." With a smile.

I end up watching them play for about three hours, they are just balls of energy. At about the thirty minute mark, Cassie comes outside to play with them. I check my watch and it says 11:56. I bet they are hungry and I just finished my second book and pot of tea. Perfect time to go inside.

"Hey, kids. Are you guys hungry? It's lunch time." I say.

"Yes please!" They say and then Cooper walks up to me.

"Can you give me a piggy back ride!" He asks.

"Sure, but you have to hold my books."

"Awesome!" He says as he climbs onto my back. I hand him my books and we set off the kitchen.

When we get there Clint's already making the kids sandwiches.

"Hey Pete, you guys have fun? Read any good books?" He asks.

"Yeah I did, and they seemed of have a lot of fun too." I say as I let down Cooper.

Clint passes out sandwiches and I take one myself.

"Thanks Uncle Clint."

"Oh it's no problem, thanks for watching the kids. I know that Laura was busy earlier." He says with a smile.

"It's really no problem. Your kids are so sweet! And so is Cassie." I say while taking a bite out of my sandwich.

"I'm gonna go down to the lab, you got them?" I ask.

He only chuckles and says "Yeah, go hang out, I'll come get you if I need anything or if the kids need their 'favorite superhero' to entertain them. I mean come on, I'm a super hero. So not fair." He says rolling his eyes as I chuckle and head down to the lab.

I see Tony in there working on Mark 69. Haha nice.

I walk in and and sit across from him.

"Hey Dad!" I say with a smile, hopefully he's having a good day too.

"Look kid, I'm just gonna get straight to it, I'm not in the mood to play mechanic with you today. I'm having a bad day, so for both of us, can you just go read a book or something?" He snaps.

I just stand there looking confused, what would cause him to act like this. I guess we all have our days, I know I've definitely had mine. Almost bashed Flashes face in one time because of it. So I definitely understand.

"That means now kid!" He snaps almost yelling.

Alight really bad day then.

"Yes sir. I'll just go hang out with Bucky or read or something, Mr. Stark, sir." I say rambling.

"Typical, just my luck. Yeah go hang out with you best friend Bucky while I work." He snaps.

"I'm sorry umm Tony- er um Mr. Stark. I didn't mean to say anything wrong. I can tell your having a bad day, so I'll just leave."

"Who says I'm having a bad day?" He asks snappily.

"I'm just gonna go before I get into any more trouble or make your mood worse. I'm sorry Mr. Stark." I say as I run out of the room.

I hear him call out to me but I just keep on walking. I feel bad for him, what ever he's going through he shouldn't have to go through it alone but I can tell he just needs some alone time right now. I'll just go read outside again. It would be a shame to waste this beautiful day.

I end up taking my left over books from earlier and head out side. I see Clint watching Cooper run around and Cassie and Lila sitting in the grass making flower crowns.

I go to sit on the bench and I get comfortable. It's about one something so I'll just read for a couple of hours. I end up falling asleep after about an hour of reading.

Clint's POV

It's about 2:45 when I notice that Peter is asleep on the bench. That kid can fall asleep anywhere. I walk over to him and notice that one of the kids put a flower crown on him. He looks so peaceful and small when he sleeps. I can't help but think of him as a kid away from my kids. (Like a home away from home) I just feel weirdly protective over him. I can see what Nat meant when she said that he would grow on you. Because even after only knowing him eight days, he already feels like one of my own. But I don't tell anyone that, I don't think Tony would like me trying to be a father figure to his kid. I mean, I don't want anyone doing that to my kids so I guess I makes sense.

After watching him for about 10 minutes I decided that I should wake him up. I shake him a bit and he starts stirring. He sits up for a bit and I sit next to him. He looks really tired, and almost stressed. What could be going through his head? He mumbles something and then lays back down. His head landing in my lap, he falls asleep instantly with little baby snores. It's so adorable. I sit there and play with his hair, maybe it's okay if he sleeps a little longer. So I sit there, watching the kids play while I play with Peter's hair. Life is good.

Eventually Laura comes out to get the kids for dinner. She come up to me.

"Aww. That is so adorable." She says as she takes a picture.

"He really is isn't he?"

"He looks so young when he sleeps, aw. Let's have another kid!"

My eyes widen. "No hohohohoooo. Um no. I'm pretty set with the ones we have now. And my wittle ol' nephew." I say rubbing his head.

"Can we keep him?" Laura asks sarcastically.

"Huh, yeah I wish. All of the other Avengers would have my head. They all love him, and I can't take him away from Tony no less." I say back as Laura smiles.

"I'm happy where we are. I think we are doing good now. We just have to get past this whole accords thing." She says hopefully.

"Don't worry babe, we'll get it settled, don't worry about that."

When I say that Peter starts to stir.

"That's my que. Come on kids! Dinners ready!" She yells as her and the kids and Cassie run inside.

Peter sits up and looks at me confused.

"You were reading and fell asleep out here, then when I tried to wake you up you fell back asleep in my lap. And I couldn't wake you up, that's like waking up a very adorable sleeping puppy." I say as he pouts.

"I'm not adorable, I'm mean and scary." He says.

"You saying that makes you more adorable you know that?" I say with a chuckle.

"Haha, okay noted. Okay so what am I doing?" He says confused.

"We were about to go inside to eat dinner. But I had to wake you up first."

"Oh. Okay, let's go then." He says, but it's not as chipper as he usually is.

"Are you okay? Is something bothering you Pete?"

"Oh, no. It's nothing, just, have you seen Mr. Stark today?" Um wow, okay back to Mr. Stark? I thought Tony got him to stop that months ago.

"Kid what's wrong, you never call him Mr. Stark. It's dad." I say, my dad instincts coming in.

"Oh, really it's nothing. He was just in a bad mood today, that's all. I was just wondering if he come out of the lab yet after I talked to him." Peter asks so innocently. Knowing Tony he probably was yelling. When he gets in a bad mood, nobody wants to get in his way. But at the same time, it's Peter. I don't think I could ever raise my voice at Peter.

"Well you should know that it's not about you, what ever he said. Seriously Pete, don't worry about it, everyone has their bad days. Sometimes we just can't control what comes out our mouths and blurt of stuff we don't mean when we're upset. Don't take it to heart Pete." I say sincerely, I don't want him to think Tony doesn't love him just because he had one bad day.

"I guess you're right, thanks so much Uncle Clint. I'll definitely have to come to you more for advise, your a lot wiser than you put off."

"Oh kid, thank you. I appreciate it. And you can come to me any time, and if your not here, I'm just a phone call away. Here hand me your phone, I'll put mine and the others number in there. Just in case, and don't be afraid to ask me anything, alright? I and everyone else will always there for you." I say as I put in everyone's numbers in his phone, even Hope and Laura's, just in case.

"Thank you so much Uncle Clint, I definitely will be coming to you for advise in the future." He says with that big dorky grin.

"Alright! Let's go eat! But don't forget, I'm the fun Uncle, not the wise one!" I say as he laughs and we walk towards the doors. All is good.
