Chapter 2

Tony's POV

 Pepper and I are thinking of selling our house out in the country to move back into Stark Tower full time. The commute is tiring for the both of us on a daily basis. Morgan doesn't have any friends yet because she's only just about to start school but it would be good for her to live in the city to experience that. She'll make plenty of friends here in the city. We have one of the largest populations of any city in the country. She'll find the right group of people to associate with. Of course we'd send her to a private school though. Money isn't an issue for us so we want both the best education and the best environment for Morgan. I have nothing against public schools but I prefer private schools. 

    Peter went to public school for a long time before home schooling himself for the remainder of his high school career. I sigh wistfully, oh my precious Peter. He's been like a son to me for several years now. I adore that boy just as much as I do my own daughter... or shall I say young man. He's twenty years old now. The snap somehow made everyone age which blows my mind. Those of us who lived five years in a world without fifty percent of all living creatures figured that the aging process of our loved ones would have come to a halt, but that obviously wasn't the case. Puberty hit him like a train. He still has his baby face slightly but the rest of his body is one of a grown man. His chest region looks incredible. 

     Tony, stop it. That's dangerous territory you're heading into. How dare you think of someone who is like a son to you in that nature! Morgan loves him so much. At least twice a week she asks me if her brother Peter is coming over. She always calls him her brother which is so endearing to Peter. Aunt May has grown more comfortable with Peter spending a lot of time with me. I also hooked him up with a job at Stark Industries. He's Pepper's personal assistant so when she doesn't have the time to make something happen, he's the next person in line. Happy is still our personal driver here in the city. Happy's a dear friend and we're grateful to have had him in our lives for so long now. 

     Pepper and Peter have been working closely with one another all week. I shouldn't be annoyed with my own wife for spending time with her assistant... but I am. I haven't spent any time with Peter this week. I wanted to work on a couple of minor kinks in his Spiderman suit in the lab. Bruce offered to volunteer to work on it with me but I really wanted Peter to be there too. Maybe over the weekend we can set aside some time to do it. Weekends are more mellow than the actual work week. I watch Pepper and Peter have a discussion in their office and smirk to myself. Peter looks flustered and he's absolutely adorable when he is. I sometimes purposely get him flustered just to study his reactions up close (as well as for my own personal satisfaction). 

      I love Pepper so much but I've also really come to love Peter. I'm not going to lie, I've developed a bit of a crush on Peter, especially since he's older now. I've also come to find out that I'm Bisexual but I'm not publicly out about it. This realization came when I found Stephen (Dr. Strange) to be an attractive man. I started at him quite a bit during our battle with Thanos on Titan. Of all of the moments to figure out my sexuality, that's when I figured it out. Timing has never been a strong suit for me as you probably know. I'm keeping this crush a secret because if the news were to leak that I liked Peter, my life could be ruined permanently. I truly mean that.
