Wrong Number, Kid

"Peter!" Tony rushed over and held my shoulders. "Are you okay? Don't lie."

"Mr. Stark I swear I'm fine."

He sighed. "If FRIDAY scans you and I see a single scratch You're going to the infirmary."

"Wait, Mr. Stark! I'm fine, really."

Another sigh. "I swear, kid, you'd better not be lying." A pause. "At least for change out of those clothes. There's a bathroom down the hall and to the left."

"I, uh... I don't have an extra set of clothes."

"It's fine, you can borrow some of mine. I've got a few tshirts that don't fit me anymore, and a hoodie and a pair of jeans."

"I promise I'll be okay until I get home."

"Not if Wanda sees you show up to the dinner table like that."

"W- dinner?"

"Yeah. You're already here so we might as well feed you. Go ahead and get changed, kiddo." He handed me a small stack of folded clothes.

I reluctantly took them and followed his directions to find a large, spotless bathroom.

I pulled out my phone and wiped soot from the screen.

And don't worry! Everything is gonna be okay. Just be yourself. Open up a little. I'm sure they like you, otherwise they wouldn't have invited you.
