Game Day

Requested by: Anonymous (Here are the specifics)

Pairing: Reader x Peter Parker Word Count: 1.6K Warnings: Fluff

A/N: I’m SO sorry these requests are taking forever to fill. But I only have a week of uni left (and my degree), so after my final essay I’ll have more time to write!

You stare up at the vast Avenger’s Compound, your eyes not blinking as you try to take it all in. The car rolls to stop and Peter turns off the engine. You can feel his stare on you, but you can’t seem to tear your eyes off the huge, concrete building that dwarfed the trees that surrounded it.

“Ready?” you boyfriend asks, breaking the silence. You slowly turn around to look at Peter, and by the amused look on his face, it was obvious how nervous you were feeling, “They aren’t gonna bite, babe,” he says, trying to hid a laugh,

“They’re the freaking Avengers,” you note,

“So am I,” Peter says with a cocked eyebrow,

“Yeah... But...” you trail off, realising you didn’t really have a response. Peter feigns hurt, clutching his chest and scoffing, “I didn’t mean it like that,” you roll your eyes,

“Come on,” he chuckles, “They’re waiting on us,”

Peter hopes out of the car, and your stare returns to the intimidating Avenger’s building just feet away. You’d found out Peter was Spiderman just a month into dating him, and he wanted to introduce you to the Avenger’s immediately. But it took you months to finally run out of reasons; not that you didn’t want to meet the famous superheroes, you were just scared. Things had only just started to die down after the feeble argument between Cap and Tony - a ‘civil war’ as Peter called it - and you didn’t want to impose on their private lives. But Peter had convinced you that they were all dying to meet you.

Peter opens the car door for you, and move to exit the car; but you had been so enthralled in the Avenger’s Compound that you hadn’t even unbuckled your seatbelt, meaning you were jerked back into the passenger seat. You mumble profanities at the seat belt as you fiddle to release it, all while Peter was trying to stifle a laugh. You shoot Peter a frown but he only grins at you and slides his hand into yours.

He pulls you along and into the building. The exterior certainly didn’t exaggerate how big the building was. The lobby was bigger than your parent’s apartment, and various halls extended further than you could see.

“Tony said they’d be in the communal living area,” Peter says before dragging you down the corridor to your left.

Your nervous only grew with every step you took, your heart started to beat faster and you couldn’t even think of what to say to the Avenger’s when you finally met them.

You and Peter reach the end of the hallway, which opened up into a huge dining, kitchen and lounge room. At first, no one realised that you and Peter had entered the room; they were just all sitting around various sections of the room. Steve was reading, Wanda was watching tv, Bucky and Sam were arguing about something and Tony was hunched over a tablet.

“Hey everyone,” Peter calls out. Everyone’s heads snap up and suddenly everyone’s eyes are on you, making you want to sink into the floor and out of sight, “This is Y/N,”

Wanda was the closest, so she got to you first. She pulls you into a tight hug, telling you about how much she’d been wanting to meet you. By the time she released you, the others had gathered around you and Peter. Sam gave you a polite smile and hello. Bucky and Steve both shook your hand, and Tony just stared.

“So, you’re the one that the kid can’t stop talking about?” Tony says. Your cheeks immediately flush red, making Tony chuckle, “It’s nice to meet you, Y/N,”

“You too,” you mumble, still a little embarrassed and spooked from being the centre of attention, “Thank you all for having me,”

“Well, now that you’re here,” Steve says, “I think it’s time we start,”

Your heart stops. Start what? Were they going to interrogate you? Did they think you could be a Hydra spy who used Peter to get close to them? Were they going to start training you to become a recruit?

“Don’t worry,” Wanda leans over and says to you, clearly having seen your worried expression, “Today’s game day,”

“Game day?” you question and move to follow the rest of the Avenger’s through the glass sliding door that lead to the backyard,

“Once a month,” she explains, “We get together and do something together. Not everyone is here today, as you probably noticed, but we thought it’d be something fun to do since you’re here,”

You nod along, but when you step out into the backyard, your mouth drops open. It wasn’t a backyard, more like a football field. Freshly cut, green grass stretches out in front of you, a huge pool is to your right, you can just see a tennis court in back left corner, and the trees in the distance are so far out that they only look as tall as a human being. You had no idea how big the Avenger’s Compound property was, but the backyard alone was more open space than you’d ever seen in your life.

“Ultimate frisbee?” Steve turns around, addressing the group, a sly smile on his face. Sam and Tony groan, which confuses you,

“Steve is the best at ultimate frisbee,” Peter tells you,

“Of course,” you can’t help but laugh,

“We don’t have even numbers,” Bucky observes, his eyes searching the group as if he was double counting,

“I’ll take the bench,” you pipe up. A chorus of reassurances and denials arise from the others, “Really, it’s okay. I don’t know how to play anyways,”

It still takes a smile and a reassuring nod that the others seem okay with you sitting out. You were more than okay with sitting this one out, you were nervous to play a sport against a bunch of superheroes; if it wasn’t obvious how regular you were before, it would’ve been the moment you tried to keep up.

“We agreed no powers!” Sam whines as his perfect three pointer is stopped short of the basket by Wanda’s red energy. You can’t help but laugh as the ball, now enveloped by a faint red glow, hovers inches from the ring.

“Fine,” Wanda rolls her eyes and lets the ball fall through the hoop, meaning that Sam, Steve and Wanda won the basketball game.

You’ve been watching the Avenger’s play a few games - ultimate frisbee, football and now basketball - and while it was amusing to watch these heroes bicker about points, you were starting to grow bored of watching from the side lines.

The others wander over to where you’re sitting. Peter plants a soft kiss on the top of your head as the others drink water and pat sweat from their foreheads.

“What next?” Peter asks the group,

“Baseball,” you say loudly,

“Ready to play?” Tony queries, noting your sudden excitement,

“Oh you have no idea, Stark,” you say slyly before hoping off your seat and walking out onto the vast lawn in front of you.

The others are frozen for a second, confused why you were suddenly so keen to play, but they brush it off and split into two teams as you warm up, swinging a baseball bat back and forth.

Bucky takes the pitchers mound, making you swallow hard with fear, but you square your shoulders and step into the batters box as Steve crouches behind you; he didn’t have a need for catchers gear, a baseball wasn’t going to hurt him.

Bucky pitches the first ball so fast that you don’t even see it pass you, you only hear the sound of the ball smacking Steve’s catchers mitt and Tony - who had elected to be the refer - yelling “Strike!”

You narrow your eyes at Bucky, who only gives you a sly smile before rolling his eyes and saying, “Fine, fine. I’ll keep my super strength out of this... The best I can,”

“Thank you,” you say sarcastically before resettling into your batting position.

This time Bucky pitches the ball much slower; even though it would still be considered a near record breaking fastball. As if by some miracle, your muscle memory kicks in and you swing the bat in time to make contact with the ball.

The sound of the baseball hitting your aluminium bat rings out as the ball is smashed in the opposite direction. Everyone stares in bewilderment and watch as the ball flies high through the air. It wasn’t enough to be considered a home run, but it was still a good hit. Taking everyone’s surprise to your advantage, you drop the bat and sprint around the makeshift baseball diamond.

You’re running over second base by the time Bucky yells at Sam to get the ball. Sam snaps out of his amazement and chases after it. Glancing over your shoulder, you try to run faster - if that was possible. It’s a race between you and the ball to home base. Luckily for you, Sam’s throw is just shy of home base and Steve has to take a few steps off of the plate to catch it. Steve catches the ball, and just as he turns to try and tag you, you drop like a bag of rocks. Using your momentum, you easily slide over home base and out of Steve’s reach.

Peter and Wanda, who are standing on the side lines waiting for their turn to bat, erupt in a cheer. Tony, Steve, Bucky and Sam are all staring at you, completely shocked and confused by what just happened. You push yourself off the grass and give them a cocky shrug. Their eyes all dart to Peter who is grinning from ear to ear.

“Didn’t I tell you that she’s already been promised a college scholarship for softball?” Peter says, mocking confusion. You burst into laughter as your boyfriend pulls you into his frame and kisses you.

SLUG SOLUTIONS

The next generation of slug control, Neudorff’s Sluggo Slug & Snail Killer Ultra contains double the active ingredient of original Sluggo. Its unique micro pellets provide many more baiting points, and are particularly effective against juvenile slugs and snails in early spring.

Once applied to the soil, Sluggo pellets absorb moisture and swell, becoming even more attractive to molluscs. Their advanced formulation means that the pellets remain intact even when surrounding moisture is removed.

Sluggo products are gentle to bees, pets and the environment, and are certified by the Organic Farmers and Growers Association. Their active ingredient is iron-III-phosphate, an iron compound that also occurs in nature. Any uneaten pellets biodegrade into the soil.

For more information, visit www.neudorff.co.uk or call 0121 767 1821.

We have 15 prize packages of a 650g bottle of Sluggo Slug & Snail Killer Ultra plus an 800g bottle and a 1kg shaker box of Sluggo Slug & Snail Killer, each worth a total of £20.97, to give away.

MOW LIKE A PRO!

STIHL’s new garden lawnmower range incorporates many of the features that have made its products a favourite of gardening professionals for more than 90 years.

Cordless and battery-powered, the new machines are quiet, lightweight and easy to manoeuvre. Their powerful 36v lithium-ion batteries are interchangeable with more than 30 other cordless STIHL tools.

A quick and tidy cut is easily achieved thanks to the strong air current generated by the flow-optimised blades. This makes the grass stand upright for a more efficient cut, before blowing the cuttings into the grass catcher box. The energy-efficient eco-mode regulates the blade speed to maximise battery life, while one-step cutting height adjustment easily adjusts the height of the mowing deck.

There are five models to suit every lawn size and budget, starting with the RMA 235, which weighs just 14kg (31lb) and is perfect for smaller lawns.
