So I started rewatching The Van Gogh Job and was saying (to myself) how I was so excited for a roller derby episode, but it isn't really. Which means we can still steal a roller derby! Put it on the list, someone!

Study Break, a Peter Parker One-Shot
Pairing: gn reader x Peter Parker
Warnings: fluff, swearing
A/N: Happy birthday to Tom Holland! This was a request I got on AO3! I’ve only watched Spider-Man Homecoming once and it was when it first came out so I don’t remember much but I tried my best! My requests are open! Please like, comment, and reblog! If you want to be tagged in my works let me know!
Tumblr media
“Ugh. I’m going to fail. I’m going to fail, that’s what’s going to happen. I’m not going to get the credits. All that time in class was wasted.” You huff and lay your head on the library desk.
“You won’t fail Y/N. You’re doing pretty well, we just have a few more things to go over.” Your boyfriend Peter puts his hand on your back and pats it in an attempt to make you feel better. Although his touch was comforting it wasn’t going to help you on exams.
“We’ve been sitting here for hours. My head is full of all this stuff I need to know and it feels like it’s about to explode.”
“I have an idea. How about we go roller skating and then get milkshakes? We can take a little break, let your brain rest, and then get back to it.”
You roll your head over to look at him. His eyebrows are raised and his hands are out to the side making a gesture that says, “how about it?”
“That actually sounds fun. I haven’t skated in forever though, I’ll probably fall on my face.” You were just about ready to give up, to throw in the towel but Peter wasn’t going to rest until you were sure you would get a good grade.
“I’m sure you’ll do fine. Now get up and stretch those legs.” Peter lightly jumps on the balls of his feet, making him look like a kid that just got told he was going to get ice cream.
You pack up your stuff and shove it into your backpack before you leave. It was seven o’clock at night and the sky was getting gradually darker. You really had been studying for hours. You left right after lunch and had been at the library ever since.
You walk to the roller rink that’s a few blocks down. As you got closer you saw on the retro-style sign that it was 80’s night. You stepped into the carpeted building and went to the front desk. The cashier was an older woman and she was dressed perfectly in the 80’s style. Her hair was teased and she was wearing huge neon hoops.
The rink was designed to be like a disco, the lights were turned off and pink, blue, and green lights shining on the walls and wooden floor. Cyndi Lauper played over the speakers, completing the atmosphere.
You both laced up your skates and entered the rink together. You were definitely rusty and nearly fell as soon as you stood. Peter struggled to suppress his laughter as he glided ahead of you. You gripped the side of the divider as you found your footing and followed Peter.
There weren’t many other people there, a few kids and their parents and some couples skating together. Peter skated in a circle back to you and grabbed your hand. The song changed to a slower song and Peter pulled you a little bit closer.
You skated side by side around the dimly lit rink. “This is pretty fun, I have to admit.”
“I know right? I’m glad we got the chance to come. I’ve wanted to take you on a date here for a while but couldn’t find the right time to ask.” He rubbed the back of his neck and a shy smile appeared on his face. He was such a cutie no matter what.
You felt confident enough to try to do a spin. You picked up a little speed and started turning. You really thought you were going to do it but not a second later your feet seem to slip out from under you and you fall. You lie on the ground on your back dying from laughter. You weren’t even embarrassed, you were genuinely having a good time. 
Peter was quick to rush to your side and as soon as he knew you were okay he dissolved into a fit of laughter. You were both laughing so hard you were wheezing and clutching your sides. 
“Oh-Oh! Help me- Help me up!” Tears were forming in the corners of your eyes and Peter was not doing any better. He grabbed onto your arm in an effort to pull you up but ended up on his butt too. That just made both of you laugh even harder, making you look like fools. You were having too much fun to even care that people were staring at you.
You stayed for a while longer, gaining a bruised ass but having a great time in general. There was a retro diner joined with the roller rink so you headed next door to get milkshakes and fries. You slid into the red booth in the corner and ordered your food.
“Thank you Peter. I really needed this break.” You reached across the table to hold his hand. 
He gave it a squeeze, “I thought you might. I’m glad you liked it.” He leaned forward and kissed you across the table. You were interrupted by your waitress setting down your plate of fries right between you and putting your milkshakes to the side. 
You dug into the comfort food, dipping your fries into your milkshake, which was your favorite flavor. You and Peter continued to joke and talk, avoiding the subject of exams. Once your glasses and plate were empty you left.
It was around nine so Peter walked you home. You arrived on the doorsteps of your apartment complex in a few minutes. 
“Goodnight handsome.” You pressed a kiss to Peter’s red cheeks. He always got flustered when you complimented him like that.
“G-goodnight. I’ll see you tomorrow.”
You turned to go in but Peter stood rooted in his spot. He wasn’t going to leave until you properly kissed him. You rolled your eyes and pressed your lips to his before finally waving goodbye. He grinned once more and then headed home.

Little Peter (Part 2)
Peter Parker x Reader || Fluff - (Part 1)
Masterlist
A/N: Thank you all for your support on the first part of Little Peter! I truly appreciate it. Here’s the second and final part!
Warnings: Just like two swear words I guess. Mentions of events from Endgame.
Summary: After not answering your texts or calls for a whole week, you demand for Tony to tell you where Peter is only to find out that he’s still his kid self.
You stepped on the gas pedal when the Avengers Compound came to your view, fury written all over your eyes. You slammed on the break and parked right in front of the building, not even caring that you almost crashed into Tony Stark’s car. You stepped out and marched towards the entrance. Tony saw you from the inside and immediately his eyes widened with fear.
“Oh shit,” he mumbled under his breath as he jogged to meet you outside. “Hey, (Y/N). What’s up?”
You crossed your arms and tapped your foot against the ground. “Where is he?”
Tony glanced at his watch, trying not to meet your glare. “Where is who?”
“Don’t play dumb with me, Tony,” you rolled your eyes. “Where is Peter? He hasn’t been answering my texts or calls for more than a week and knowing him, he’s probably here.”
Tony shrugged. “I don’t know where he is. Now why don’t you scurry off and-”
“You of all people should know where Peter is. Please just tell me,” you pleaded, laying off your anger.
Tony sensed the concern and worry radiating off of you and he softened. “Alright, promise me you won’t get mad.”
“You know I can’t promise tha-”
“We haven’t switched him back to his regular self,” Tony quickly said, avoiding your arms the moment they flung up.
“WHAT!” you screamed. “Tony, it’s been a whole week! You said you would fix this!”
Tony rubbed the back of neck with shame. “I know, I know. He just won’t cooperate with me,” he shrugged, swiftly turning around to walk back into the Compound.
You rolled your eyes and followed Tony into the building. Immediately you were greeted by a pair of arms wrapped around your waist. Any previous signs of your anger seemed to vanish as soon as your eyes landed on the boy who was giddily squeezing the life out of you. Tony noticed how tight Peter was squeezing you so he practically had to pry his arms off of you.
“Hiya (Y/N)!” Peter grinned once his arms were released from you, showing you his toothless grin that you had forgotten about.
You ruffled his brown curls. “Hey, Peter,” you smiled, crouching down to become eye level with him. “What have you been up to this past week?”
“Welllll,” Peter started, scrunching his face while he thought of where to start, “Mr. Stark has been telling me a lot of stories.”
You raised an eyebrow at Tony, who looked back at you with a smirk. “What kind of stories has Mr. Stark been telling you about?”
“They’re all about you,” Peter excitedly said, deciding to sit on the floor. “He talks about what we’re like in the future. My favorite story that he told me was about how he once saw me killing bugs for you as you threw your shoes at them.”
Your face burned up with embarrassment and you looked up to meet Tony’s amused eyes. “You saw that?”
“You bet,” Tony chuckled. “Have the whole thing recorded. Showed it to Barton and his earbuds basically broke because of your shrieking.”
You stood up and shook your head, using your left hand to cover how red your face was getting. Peter tugged on your right arm and shyly smiled.
“I’m gonna get something that Mr. Stark made me,” he announced, jumping up to dash down the hall.
You laughed and turned to raise an eyebrow at the man, but he looked lost in thought. “Tony?” you asked. “Everything okay?”
“There’s another reason why I’ve kept Peter this way,” Tony quietly confessed, looking behind you to make sure Peter wasn’t back yet. You motioned for him to continue and he said, “The kid saved me. After the fight with Thanos again, I was a mess. It was pathetic. When little Peter happened, well, I had to babysit him which was, first of all, annoying. I mean geez, the kid is more energetic than his usual self. He could run a marathon for God’s sake-”
You crossed your arms and narrowed your eyes. “What’s your point?”
Tony sighed and turned to sit on a nearby sofa. “Kids have this power to make you feel alive again. When this Peter came, he broke everything out of me so I was my real self. Then of course he would break my belongings and I would be upset, but he would laugh as if it’s all a big joke and all my anger disappears. It’s like he saves me from drifting off and becoming someone else.” Tony noticed that you were trying to absorb everything he was saying, but you still had this look of confusion on your face. “Look (Y/N), in these 5 years, we lost a lot. We lost Peter. I cried just as much as you did. Seeing him as a little kid, he just doesn’t know what happened. I guess it’s his innocence that kept my true self alive.”
You looked down and took in what Tony was saying. You hugged yourself and said, “Don’t get me wrong because I’m grateful that this all happened for you, but. .I had to go through this tough week without him by my side. I miss our Peter.”
“I know,” Tony replied, softly smiling at you. “I miss him too. I’ll fix everything today. In the mean time, you need to keep the kid some company so I can actually focus on something this week for once.”
For the past hour, Peter had been holding your hand and leading you around the Avengers Compound. During the little tour, Peter had been showing you around excitedly and not once did his smile fade. His energy had been so infectious to the point where you didn’t even know when was the last time your smile left your face while being in Peter’s presence.
Peter tugged on your hand and pointed to the room that stood before the both of you. “Mr. Stark said that this room is mine. He said I stay here a lot when I’m not at home or with you. I think you’ll like it in here.”
Together the both of you entered the room and you were in awe with how neat the room was. To the right of you were lap equipment that sat on the table nearest to the wall and they were all arranged. Peter’s notebooks were lined up on a bookshelf above the table. On the left lied a couch and a coffee table in front of it with papers neatly stacked atop. There was a TV nearby with another small bookshelf underneath it that held more notebooks. In the back of the room was a brown desk with more papers and a laptop. You were slightly offended that Peter managed to keep this whole room neat, but he couldn’t keep his actual room, heck even his laundry, neat like this in his apartment.
“Mr. Stark and I cleaned this room a while ago. It was really messy a few days ago,” Peter explained when he saw the shock registering on your face.
That explained a lot.
From the door, you noticed that there was a frame that sat on the desk. You made your way to the desk and picked up the frame with a smile.
The frame held two polaroids and they were both of you and Peter. One was a polaroid of the both of you snuggled against each other on a bench in Central Park during the winter. Peter wouldn’t allow you to leave your apartment without you completely bundled up with scarves, a hat, and a coat so you were cocooned with warmth. Peter was equally bundled as you, but you both were still shivering so you guys solved the solution by snuggling for warmth. A lady that sat across from you on another bench, randomly happened to have a polaroid camera with her. She thought that the both of you were absolutely adorable so she offered to take a picture of the scene. You remembered Peter panicking over keeping the polaroid in his jacket pocket so the lower temperatures wouldn’t stop the film from developing.
The second polaroid was from the first time you and Peter went roller skating. It was a total last minute thing that happened when you and Peter’s friends dragged you both along to the rink. You both were a complete mess, tripping multiple times and flailing your arms around. When you two got the hang of skating, MJ snapped a polaroid of the both of you skating and smiling while holding hands.
That’s when it really hit you with a pang in your heart. You really missed Peter. As much as you loved the younger version of him, you needed your version back. 
“You miss him,” you heard Peter state from behind you. You turned to face him with a tear threatening to fall. “Older me.”
You nodded with a small smile. “Yeah, I do.” You turned back to face the frame, not knowing what to say to this Peter. You didn’t want him to think you didn’t like this younger self of him. 
It was silent for a few moments until Peter broke the silence, “You’ll see him soon, (Y/N). I promise,” he proudly announced, enveloping his arms around you. You melted under his grip, but you suddenly frowned when you realized you couldn’t stay longer. “I’m sorry, Peter,” you apologized, giving him a sympathetic smile. “I have plans to eat out with my friends in an hour so I have to leave now.”
Peter grinned and tightened his grip around you. “That’s okay, (Y/N).”
You laughed and ruffled his hair, pulling away from the hug a few seconds later. “I’ll see you soon, yeah?”
“Yeah, really soon,” Peter enthusiastically replied, his smile bigger than ever. 
By the time you arrived home at your apartment after hanging out with your friends, night had already fallen and you were exhausted. You pulled your keys out of your pocket and fumbled with the door’s lock. Your eyes were greeted by an unexpected attack of light once you pushed the door open. As your eyes adjusted to the light, you cautiously entered your apartment and closed the door behind you. It wasn’t like you to leave for the day without turning off the lights.
That’s when you heard something fall, really loud, from the direction of your bedroom.
You swiftly walked to your bedroom, with your phone ready in your hand just in case you needed to call the police. You gently placed your hand on the knob and quietly turned it. You creaked the door open and peaked through the space. There was a blanket covered lump on the floor beside your bed. What alarmed you was that this lump was the size of a human.
You pushed the door open more and you entered the room cautiously. You eyed the lump and made your way to it warily. You crouched down and grabbed the blanket, tossing the it off the figure.
The first thing you saw was a mop of brown hair and you laughed. “Peter, what are you doing here? You really got me scared for a second.” The mop of brown hair popped up and the figure turned its head to face you. “PETER? WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?” you exclaimed with excitement. It was your Peter. The Peter that had been gone for a while now and the Peter that you had been missing.
Peter raised an eyebrow and scratched the back of his neck. “Didn’t you just ask that?” 
Not even bothering to answer his question, you flung yourself to Peter and squeezed him into a hug. Peter laughed and tightened his arms around you. You smiled and rested your head onto his chest. “I missed you so much,” you whispered, listening to the sound of his heartbeat.
You felt Peter shake with laughter. “You missed me that much, huh?”
You sat up and shook your head with annoyance. “Peter, you were gone for a week. Maybe a little bit longer than that. That’s the longest we’ve ever been apart in our relationship so it felt really new to me.”
“Oh, right,” Peter replied, widening his eyes with realization. “I’m sorry, baby,” he apologized, rubbing your back with a frown. His smile lit up after several moments and he laughed. “Mr. Stark told me that you met my younger self.”
“I did,” you smiled, recalling everything that happened with him. “He’s really sweet and incredibly adorable.”
“Hmm,” Peter grinned, pulling you to his chest again, “he sounds just like me. Would you mind telling me what happened while I was gone?”
“Of course,” you replied, “as long as you tell me what you did.” Peter agreed and together you delved deeper into the night while listening and telling each other your stories.

Heart of Gold-Titanium Alloy: Chapter 1: The Curse of Peter Parker
find more chapters on here: https://archiveofourown.org/works/16127408
Peter had always had terrible luck. He assumed that it was just a curse after Uncle Ben died and now he was sure of it. He wasn’t sure how, but he had managed to go through four parents in less than sixteen years.
There wasn’t anything that he could’ve done. Aunt May was just on her way to work while he was on his way to school. They were miles apart but Peter felt like he should have been there. At least so she wouldn’t have been alone. But now she was gone. Just like Uncle Ben and his parents. So yeah, he was definitely cursed.
It had been hell to get the call while he was at school. He left the high school without telling anyone as being tardy to class was the least of his worries. He had taken the subway to the hospital that May had been rushed to. She was gone before he even arrived.
It was a blur from there. There was crying and an agent from some child related government service or something. Peter couldn’t make himself listen. All he heard was something about being young enough for foster care, not having any living relatives and an empty apology.
It was deja vu of Uncle Ben all over again. He had the same reaction of an explosion of emotion including unbearable anger and sadness followed quickly by numbness. It took a little while longer to get to the acceptance part of grief.
Despite being young and there being several years to get over it, Peter was still tormented by his parents deaths. Then there was the loss of Ben and he was back in the cycle. It was barely a year and a half to deal with Ben’s death before May joined him.
Peter was not known for his healthy coping mechanisms. He ditched his foster home as often as he could, he went out Spiderman-ing for hours longer than he usually did. Eventually he just decided to run away from his foster home. He was successfully homeless for a week before someone called CPS on him and he was back in the system. That was the cycle. It repeated itself four times until he met Harley.
Harley was his age and was the only one that treated him like he wasn’t made of glass. Harley’s mother died after they had moved to New York from Tennessee for a business opportunity. His little sister got adopted a years before Peter even met him. He didn’t take any of Peter’s shit when they were put in the same foster home. Of course, they became friends.  
Peter found out Harley was incredibly smart and had even helped Mr. Stark during the whole Mandarin thing. That was pretty cool. Harley was sarcastic and dry witted and was as much of a nerd as he was. Harley was also more confident than Peter could ever be. It was nice having more than one friend.
It took a month of lying to Mr. Stark and hoping that the billionaire didn’t care. After the whole vulture thing, Mr. Stark decided to not have Happy in between their communications. Thankfully, the guy was surprisingly easy to lie to. As long as they weren’t face to face. Then it was infinitely harder. Peter was honestly surprised that he was able to last so long.
He was out with Harley, avoiding their foster family, when he got the call. He looked at his phone and raised his eyebrows when he saw the caller ID that popped up. It was Mr.Stark. The caller picture that took up the screen was a rare picture of the billionaire looking ridiculous. He looked at Harley and showed his pseudo-sibling his phone.
“What the fuck? Does Tony just… call you?” Harley’s eyes went wide and he looked at the phone. “Well, answer him! You better tell me what he says. I thought your internship was terminated or whatever…” Peter rolled his eyes and answered the phone.
“H-hey Mr. Stark… what’s up?” Peter tried to sound casual but his voice broke and he stuttered so that didn’t work out so much.
“Hey kid, you okay? You sound nervous. Please don’t tell me you’re going after another animal themed super-villain behind my back…” Mr.Stark immediately sounded suspicious but Peter was kind of confident in his ability to keep big secrets. Not little ones, but the whole being Spider-Man one was relatively still a secret.
“I’m fine, everything’s fine…” Peter said too quickly before he covered the phones microphone and looked at Harley. “I’ll tell you what he says but can you give me a minute? You can get yourself a coffee or something…” He hissed as Harley rolled his eyes.
“Only if you’re paying.” Harley nodded and held out his hand for money. Peter sighed and managed to get his wallet and give Harley a five-dollar bill. Harley grinned and strolled into a nearby coffee shop. Peter put his attention back to his call.
“You are really bad at lying Mr.Parker. Tell me what’s up.” Mr.Stark ordered.
“I mean, it’s fine, it’s not a Spider-Man thing or anything…” Peter muttered.
“Spit it out. Come on, my time is precious. Did you get a girlfriend or something?” Peter could hear Mr.Stark smirking and he winced.
“No… I learned my lesson after homecoming. No girl deserves my flaking and all that. I’m not particularly desirable anyway. Uh, It’s not that. It’s not… anything like that. Don’t worry.” He rambled.
“When you say ‘don’t worry,’ I automatically worry. Just tell me.” Mr.Stark insisted.
“I swear that it’s nothing. I’m not dying or anything.” Peter winced at his own words. He may not be dying but it would’ve hurt less if he did instead.
“You better not be. Whatever, maybe if you ask your aunt if you can do an overnight thing for the internship, we can work on your suit in the compound. It’ll be fun.” Peter winced.
“Yeah… will do. I gotta go, I’m with a friend and I don’t want to keep him waiting.” Peter rushed his words because the last thing he wanted to do was tell Mr.Stark what was actually going on.
“I’ll find out what you’re hiding kid. I know that something is up. But i guess it’s good that you’re hanging out with your friend. Don’t do drugs, we don’t know how your body will react to heroin anyway, don’t take the tracker out of your suit and tell me if you get dramatically injured.” Mr.Stark ordered.
“Yeah yeah, of course. I’m not doing any drugs if NyQuil gets me sick. Maybe I should figure that out… I don’t want to get gravely injured and have no painkillers that will work. It’s too bad that Doctor Banner is off of the grid, he would be one of the best people to talk to, you know? If anyone knows about weird DNA, it’s the Hulk.” Peter rambled to try to convince Mr. Stark that he was fine and normal.
“Yeah that’s a good idea. There’s a woman in Korea that could be good at that kind of stuff, we could discuss it so you don’t have to worry about it. Anyway, bye kid, play with your legos or whatever.” Peter chuckled as he hung up and walked to the coffee shop where Harley was waiting with two lattes.
“So… what did he say? Why is your superhero boss calling you?” Harley took a danty sip out of his latte as he handed Peter the one that he got for him. Harley got Peter one of those brightly colored ones but he didn’t mind. The joke was on Harley as Peter loved unicorn themed foods.
“He was just checking up on me I guess. I was his personal intern so he could be worried about me? I’m not sure. That wasn’t it, apparently he wants me to work on him with some things up at the compound. At the moment, It’s nothing too cool. I’ll tell you when I get to work on rocket boots or something.” Peter shrugged and indulged in his overly sweet drink. “I think we’re going to be working with someone in Korea to work on medical stuff. I guess it would be helpful to use Starktech in the medical field.” Peter smiled as he thought about it.
“I mean yeah, didn’t Tony make those prosthesis for his friend? It would make sense that they would integrate the tech for other medical things. Imagine the kind of prosthesis he could make for people without limbs. Like dude, He could make an arm with more features than a smartphone.” Harley shrugged.
“I mean, imagine a robotic leg with a camera on the toes or something. Just do yoga and you could take a selfie. Someone could just have one rocket boot.” Peter grinned. It was a silly image.
“It would be hard to steal shit from you if it’s actually stored in your body. You could keep your tunes literally in your armpit.” Harley matched his grin. “I would have a compartment just for skittles.”
“What about rocket powered roller skates as default transportation? That would be fun…” Peter imagined Iron Man with roller skates instead of hoverboots. He would have to talk to Mr.Stark about it.
“Not quite practical but other than that… It’s a cool idea. Like extreme heelys.” This made Peter laugh a little.
“If I ever get a hold of an Iron Man suit, I am definitely adding retractable wheels that are motorized. Then when Mr. Stark is fighting aliens or whatever, he can roll away from attacks.” Peter made a little motion with his hand to demonstrate the greatness of wheely rocket shoes for a superhero.
“You better. If you do, you have to send me Tony’s reaction. I could see it being a perfect reaction image.”
“I’ll do my best. Mr. Stark does have some stellar facial expressions.”
“Why do you call him that. I mean, sure, he’s your boss kinda, but literally everyone calls him by his full name. I mean Tony Stark is a super iconic name.” Harley raised his eyebrow.
“I was kinda conditioned to call ‘adults’ by their titles out of respect.” Peter made air quotes when it was appropriate. “It kinda stuck. Mr. Stark teases me a little for it but it’s not like it’s that bad of a habit to have.” He shrugged and realized with disappointment that he was nearly done with his colorful latte.
“I’m not attacking you for it, I was just wondering. I mean it’s part of your whole goody-two-shoes polite kid thing right? You act all sweet and perfect but you run away from foster homes and get in fights at school.” Harley scoffed.
“I don’t get into fights.” Peter rolled his eyes. “Or at least I don’t start them… or continue them… Dude have you seen me? I’m a wimp.”
“Sure sure. Just because I’m six inches taller than you doesn’t mean that you’re a wimp. That just makes you tiny.”
“I’m not… tiny…” Peter muttered. Harley looked completely unimpressed. “Okay, I’m kinda small but tiny is going too far.” He admitted to Harleys delight. Harley liked being right and Peter had no problem admitting his faults. Even MJ practically towered over him. He had accepted that his maximum height would not exceed 5’6”.
His internal conflict about his lack of height was interrupted by his phone buzzing.
“You’re popular today Pete…” Harley was only surprised because Peter rarely got calls, so two in the same hour was not normal for him.
“It’s probably Mr. Stark again. I haven’t told him what happened and he doesn’t like not knowing everything. I guess I must have been suspicious enough for him to look into it. I guess I’ll face the music or whatever the term is.” Peter's heart fluttered with anxiety as he answered his phone. “Hey, Mr. Stark, that was quick…”
This time Peter couldn’t make Harley leave so he was going to try to be discrete with the whole Spider-man stuff. If he had to. The problem wasn’t with Spider-Man though, It was with Peter. He was the one with the problems. Spider-Man was relatively unaffected. And that’s all that Mr. Stark cared about. Right?
“Kid.” Mr. Stark’s voice was soft through the phone’s receiver. “What… what happened.”
“I think you already know… Don’t tell be that you didn’t do some research in the last twenty minutes…” Peter’s voice was a little quieter than before.
“I just want to hear you say it. I want to know what happened.” Mr. Stark’s voice was uncharacteristically reserved and it left no doubt in Peter’s mind that the billionaire knew exactly what happened.
“Uh, A month ago, May was… she was in a car accident. I was at school so there was nothing I could do besides rush to the hospital. She was gone before I even got there. I don’t have any family so I got put in foster care. I ran away a few times… but I’m fine now. I have an almost brother and everything.” Peter really tried to sound convincing that he was fine even though he really wasn’t. Who would be?
“Peter…” Mr. Stark sighed. Oh no, he brought out the real names, this must be serious. Peter had been almost exclusively called some nickname by him so when the real names came out, it was not to just be ignored. “Why didn’t you say anything… I could’ve done something.”
“You’re my boss. I didn’t want to… I didn’t want to force you to deal with my problems. If I’m honest, I haven’t even called Ned or anything. I’m still processing it myself…” Peter muttered as Harley awkwardly left to buy a pastry or something. Peter wanted to apologize but Harley had left earshot quickly enough not to take notice. He’ll say sorry when he comes back.  
“This isn’t like not telling me about your homework kid, this is… this is big. I wouldn’t want you to go through that alone. Been there, done that, you know?” For once, Mr. Stark sounded awkward but Peter assumed that it was because of the billionaires emotional constipation. He wasn’t used to trying to comfort people. Peter appreciate the attempt nonetheless.
“Yeah… thanks but, I don’t know. I’m just probably going to be in a temporary family until I can get my inheritance. Then I can buy an apartment or something. Apparently it’s not easy to get adopted as old as I am. And I’m not sure that I want to be thrown into a family for the rest of eternity. I just… I don’t know. Everything changed so fast and I have no idea what to do.” Peter found himself frantically rambling and stuttering out his ideas.
“Well it’s a good thing I don’t have a family then.” Mr. Stark commented quickly.
“Uh, what do you mean?” Peter said slowly.
“Peter, you don’t deserve any of this. I’m not just going to stand by and watch while there’s something that I can do. That’s kind of our motto right? Reckless superheroes and all.” Mr. Stark rushed his words but still managed to sound casual while he was changing Peter’s life. He seemed to do that a lot lately…
“Mr. Stark… I don’t… oh my god, are you serious? You would…” Peter could barely manage sentences as tears welled up in his eyes. While his mentor was emotionally constipated, Peter was the complete opposite. He’s an emotional mess but he didn’t feel bad over getting emotional now. This time he had a valid reason.
“I’m as serious as a terminal illness kid. I can get all of the paperwork done in no time and poof, no more foster care.” Mr. Stark promised. “My only requirement is that you call me Tony instead of the whole mister Stark crap.”
“I’ll try- I just-” Peter sniffled and wiped his tears away, obviously embarrassed. “I’d feel bad for leaving Harley, he’s my foster sibling kinda, we were paired in the same foster house. Apparently he met you during the whole extremis thing. Small world right?” Peter rambled because, holy shit, Tony Stark was serious about adopting him.
“Wait… Harley? Like Harley Keener? Potato gun kid? He’s not only in New York but also in the same foster care system as you?” Mr. Stark sounded surprised.
“Yeah, He said that you guys are connected. His mom uh, actually he can tell you himself. We’re avoiding our foster family and getting highly caffeinated.” Peter waved at Harley and motioned for him to come over. He rolled his eyes and took his time in strolling over.
“You know I’ll have to talk to Pepper but I think that she will agree with me on this whole thing. I think that she would be fine with having children that aren’t in diapers. You met her right?”
“Yeah, she’s pretty badass. I’m surprised that she’s not a superhero herself.” Peter tried to pull himself together before Harley came close enough to see the tears in his eyes. “So Harley just came over, wanna talk to him?” Peter was kind of anxious to let himself internalize what the hell was going on. And he wanted to see Harley react to talking to Tony. Peter still thought it was weird to call Mr. Stark by his first name but he would have to get used to it someday.
“Yeah, hand me to the other kid. I haven’t heard from him since he was like eleven.” Mr. Stark chuckled as Peter handed Harley the phone. Harley looked a little confused as he put his ear to the speaker.
“Hey Tony. What’s up.” Harley handed Peter the muffin that he had bought. Peter was not going to complain, he needed a lot of calories but he usually told Harley that it was because he had a normally high metabolism rather than a superhuman metabolism.
“I know, It’s because we’re connected.” Harley smirked at the phone. Peter tried not to use his super-hearing to intrude on their conversation, but it wasn’t that easy.
“Yeah, my mom died a few years ago. My little sister got adopted a while ago. I haven’t seen her in awhile. Actually I do still have that watch… come on, Pete looks like he just cried, what were you guys talking about?” Harley started out smiling but his expressions changed quickly.  First he looked shocked. Then he put his hand over his face as he started to tear up. He whispered to the receiver of Peters cellphone.
“Really? Tony, Jesus Christ… no. I’m not disappointed, you asshole. Don’t apologize, you didn’t know… shut up, I’m not crying… fine, not as much as Peter is though.” Harley smirked a little at Peter while trying and more successfully hiding his eyes well up.
“Shut up…” Peter muttered as he wiped his eyes again. He honestly didn’t think that he would have a family again. That anyone would actually want him. Then his childhood hero wants to adopt him as soon as he finds out what happened. It was, almost overwhelming. No, It definitely was overwhelming.
“Thank’s Tony… I guess you’ll see us soon. I think that we have to go soon anyway, it’s getting dark. Yeah, I’ll make Peter text you all that stuff. Now go call Pepper!” Harley weakly put down the phone and grinned at Peter.
“What the fuck just happened dude.” Peter’s comment made Harley laugh. Peter realized that this was the happiest he had been since Aunt May had died.
It felt pretty good.

Rollerskating with Peter Parker HC
A/N: Hello again friends! Here's a list of hcs about Peter & Reader going skating! I love skating & thought this would be cute & fun! Just a disclaimer: Reader holds Peter's hands as they teach him to skate. While that's cute & all, it's dangerous and I do not recommend doing so unless it is with a small child, the rink is practically empty, you're a pro or you live on the edge. Also, I'm on mobile, so no read more! Apologies for the long post! Anyway, please enjoy it!
Tags: @cinnamon-roll-parker
⇒you and Peter do everything together, but not once in this boy's life has he ever gone roller skating past the age of like 7
⇒you adore roller skating, as it was a cheap fun thing to do & get exercise from! So you obviously invite your best friend to go with you
⇒when you guys get to the rink, he's surprised in a lot of ways
⇒it smells of rubber, sweat, pizza and other junk food
⇒it's...darker than he imagined. And a bit more crowded
⇒there's some strobe lights on the rink and black lights everywhere else. The old carpet glows under them, and he giggles to himself a bit as he continues to look around
⇒it screams '90s and he actually isn't complaining
⇒you have to help him lace up his skates
⇒"they're heavy"
⇒once you're done, you get up at start to skate for the rink
⇒but poor Pete can't stand just yet, so you help him up
⇒but he struggles to skate gracefully on the carpet like you can
⇒so he sorta scoot-skate/walks
⇒if you've been skating you know what I mean
⇒there's a waist- high wall that you wait at before stepping into the rink. it's that one place everyone uses to step on
⇒he's taking his sweet time, gripping the wall for dear life and slowly placing one of his feet down
⇒he picks up the other foot and jerks forward a bit. he grips the wall with both hands
⇒"just..gettin the hang of it"
⇒"mmhmm. Do you need me to hold your hand?"
⇒"pssh. Of course not. I'm fifteen, (Y/N). I can skate."
⇒"then act like it."
⇒you pat him on the back and skate off. he needs that Tough Love to get better
⇒he slowly pushes off the wall and begins to make his way around
⇒you lap him and notice hes not even picking up his feet.
⇒his hands are stretched forward "for balance" and his jaw is clenched
⇒then he gets to the turn
⇒oh boy
⇒he decides to just skate till he reaches the far wall, having people maneuver carefully around him as he scoots to it
⇒sweet relief
⇒he pulls himself along it with ease till he reaches the other side
⇒it's all that strength from pulling himself from building to building with his webs yaknow
⇒anyway at this point there's a few children who have been visibly snickering at him and skating past him
⇒he hasn't noticed thankfully, because he's been so focused, but you did, and you felt bad but also not really because you've been laughing at him too
⇒so before he pushes off to make the trek back to his starting point, you skate over to him and grab his hand
⇒"I told you before, I don't need-"
⇒"Parker, it's obvious you need some assistance. You're like a baby deer on ice"
⇒baby deer are cute he thinks, so he'll accept that
⇒you face him and hold both of his hands and begin to skate backwards
⇒he watches your feet at first and tries to make the same pattern.but it won't work because you're going backward
⇒"you have to pick up your feet" "but I'll fall"
⇒he starts to pick up his left foot reluctantly, and due to the reluctance, he starts to tilt a little
⇒"higher than that. You don't have to be scared of falling. I promise."
⇒he actually does pick up his foot high enough this time, and he goes forward with a lot more ease than his scoot technique
⇒he looks at you with such a cute "omg look what I just did" face
⇒"and now the other"
⇒he picks up the other one too, and then the other
⇒he starts to get the hang of it a bit. you hold his hands still, trying to let him get used to picking up his feet more
⇒and that he does! In fact, he gets a little too confident and over does it a bit
⇒you let him go and, sure enough, he falls
⇒don't have to be scared of falling my butt
⇒"if you're about to fall, then fall." You warn him. Most of the time, you get injured worse by trying to break your fall/save yourself than you would if you were to simply fall
⇒and really feels that in his elbow now
⇒so you guys decide to take a break and get a snack
⇒he reverts back to his scooting technique before you help him step off the rink
⇒you guys get some pizza and you encourage him to drink water but he's stubborn and wants some Dr. Pepper instead because you can't drink water with pizza and he never gets to drink it at home so
⇒May gave Peter about 20 bucks, and he still has about 10 left after food
⇒his eyes land on the small arcade area and his eyes go wide
⇒"(Y/N), look." He points to it. "We have to play something. Please?"
⇒you agree and he scoots over to the coin machine.
⇒all he has is the $10
⇒he puts in it anyway
⇒and the quarters come faster than he expected
⇒you hear it, as does everyone else, and turn to see your best friend using his t-shirt as a make-do basket as he hurriedly scoops the coins in
⇒"Peter, what on earth?! How much did you put in?"
⇒he mummbles as he gets the last of the coins and scoots into the arcade
⇒you follow and the 2 of you play nearly every game. He's left with about $3 in quarters now, weighing down his pants.
⇒"do you wanna try to skate one last time?" You ask. They close in about an hour, and a lot of people have left.
⇒"sure!" He feigns excitedness. It's not that the doesn't want to, it's just he doesn't want to fall again.
⇒this time, you don't hold onto him, but you skate next to him the whole time
⇒sure, he's agile and quick, he's Spider-man, but his legs have never had this type of workout before
⇒don't skip leg day Pete
⇒you teach him how to turn with ease, and while he can, he does it very slowly.
⇒but you don't complain at all
⇒seeing him learn something new and get better at it excites you, and you're so very happy that you can teach him!
⇒"I'm gonna go to the bathroom real quick, please don't fall while I'm gone"
⇒"they're gonna pee....on skates?!?!" He thinks
⇒he goes around once reluctantly, but once he gets passed the turns he does okay
⇒when you come back, his back is facing you and hes in a very defensive stance as he goes around the curve
⇒he spots you watching him and waves
⇒"hey! Hey, (Y/N)! I'm doin' it!! Haha!" He shouts
⇒you smile and shake your head in that endearing way
⇒and as he's waving with both arms, he throws himself out of balance and boom he falls
⇒but its okay because he fell backwards
⇒and he's just sitting there in the middle of the rink, giving you that "oh no" look
⇒you bust out laughing and he struggles to get up
⇒you skate over and help him stand before leading him off the rink and back to the table you ate it earlier
⇒you undo his skates and slide them off his feet
