Tony

-Can't you fly faster old man! I yelled through the coms to Cap and the others.

-We're trying! He yelled back.

-Listen we only got a few minutes. If we're not back before 6:30 we're gonna have a big problem! I yelled stressed.

-Tony it's 6:27! Nat yelled through the coms.

-Oh shit! I don't know if we can make it at this pace!! Bucky yelled.

-Yes we can. But maybe not on time. Tony boost your speed and get there before us. It's the only way!

-You sure?

-Just....just make sure Peter knows I still love him, Steve said.

-No! You need to be there with me. Jump out, I'll catch you!

-Clint get the others home! Steve said as I placed myself under the Quinnjet.

Soon Steve jumped out and I caught him in my arms. A small smirk spread across my face for a short second. It was not often I had the strength to hold him bridal style.

-See ya later guys! I yelled and boosted up my speed.

....

We came into the tower and I immediately got my helmet off. Then I rushed after Steve to the kitchen where Peter's cake was. We quickly light the candles and grabbed the small present we had here and not in the quinnjet we were about to hurry towards Peter's room when we heard running. Both me and Steve turned around and saw the rest of the avengers running as if their lives depended on it. Each and every one of them was carrying presents from the Quinnjet.

-How'd you get here so fast? Steve asked.

-Long story short. I'm happy that's not our only jet, Clint said.

-Alright, guys. Let's go, I said and we all walked to Peter's room.

When we approached the door I carefully opened ut before all of us started singing happy birthday. But as we got to Peter's bed he was nowhere to be found. I was about to panic when someone fell down from the ceiling "attacking" Natasha with tickles.

-Tickles! Peter yelled.

I knew Nat wasn't ticklish. So when she started giggling and slowly lowering herself down to the ground, I was a bit shocked

-Die evil dark elf! Die! Peter yelled.

He tickled Nat for a short while before he tried to tickle her in her armpit.

-Oh no! That's my weak spot, super spy. You can't....aaaahh....I'm dead, Nat played dead.

-Mama-spider? Peter asked worryingly.

Nat stayed quiet. Then she suddenly jumped up, grabbed Peter as she did and spun him around in the room.

-Look Dad! Pops! I'm flying!!!

-We can see that son, Steve smiled.

Nat stopped swinging Peter around and pulled him into a hug.

-So you're an older baby-spider now? Nat asked.

Peter nodded excitedly. I held up the cake and walked up to Nat and Pete.

-Well birthday boy. Make a wish! I said and held the cake close enough for Peter to blow out.

Peter closed his eyes. He was tugging his lip and holding his eyes tightly shut. When he had made up his mind about his wish he opened his eyes and blew out all the candles. We all applauded and settled down on the floor where we started cutting the cake with Clint's arrows.

-So anyways Peter....I know you're not supposed to tell us. But what did you wish for? Bruce asked with a cake in his hand.

-I wish to be like dad and pops. They are always brave, strong, nice and they let me sleep in their bed whenever I have a bad dream. Plus dad is really funny and pops draws really good. A-and I think....I think they really help many people. Which is very kind of them....and they're really badass!

-CLINT!!! Everyone yelled

-Wanda is sitting right there!! Clint yelled and pointed at Wanda eating cake with her whole face.

-What? She asked and looked up innocently.

-Nice try, I said sarcastically.

-Just because she looks like a cinnamon roll, doesn't mean she is!

-Alright then, Pete buddy. Who taught you the bad word "badass"? I asked with a soft voice as I looked at the little spider with cake all over his face.

-Uncle Clint, he answered oblivious to why I asked.

-Alright. No babysitting Peter for a month! I said.

-What? That's unfair! Peter loves his uncle Clint.

The conversation would soon have turned into an argument if it wasn't for a knock on the door....or wall. We all turned around to see Pepper standing in the open doorway. She was wearing professional-looking clothes. Probably because she came straight from work. She smiled as she saw Peter.

-Hi Pepper! Steve greeted her.

Even though Pepper and I used to date, she still comes over from time to time. It doesn't bother Steve. He actually likes it when she visits. During our more....challenging moments of our relationship Pepper was there to support us both. I know Steve sometimes complains about me to her. About what I have no idea. I'm awesome.

-I heard there was a birthday boy in the tower, Pepper said and entered.

I looked towards Peter who seemed to be trying to hide behind Steve. Pepper sat down with her present in the circle the rest of us sat in. Peter still seemed shy.

-I don't know if you remember me. I'm Pepper. I've been at a few meetings here, Pepper said with a soft voice as she talked to Peter directly.

Peter didn't answer. He looked at the rest of us a bit unsure.

-I uh....got you a present! Pepper said and reached out the nicely packed package.

Peter carefully walked up to Pepper. He looked at the present and then at her.

*Thank you* he signed.

-Are your ears hurting Pete? Steve asked worryingly.

Peter shook his head at him and then looked back at Pepper before he slowly grabbed the present.

-You sure bud? I asked as he sat down not far away from Pepper.

Peter nodded. He then looked up at Pepper a bit unsure again.

*Can I open it?* he signed.

Pepper looked at him slightly confused as she tried to understand what he meant. It slowly sank in and she nodded. Pepper visits the tower from time to time. So of course she picked up on sign. But she's far from fluent in the sign language. Peter started unwrapping the present slowly. We all watched intensely as he did. Soon a science pun shirt was revealed from the paper. I mentally rolled my eyes. Pepper do know a thing or two about science. Not because it's her interest. But because she likes science puns a lot. So did Peter.

*Thanks so much. I love it* Peter signed to Pepper.

It took a few seconds before Pepper was able to reply.

-Glad you liked it
