I'll Be There For You

Chapter 24

"Who are you?" Peter asked.

Everyone in the room looked towards Peter. Peter's eyes switched between everyone in the room. On his left, he noticed a woman on a medical bed that looked like she just woke up and a man next to her who looks confused. He looked to his right, and saw a blonde guy who also looked confused, and a man with a glowing circle on his chest who looked upset.

"And where's Aunt May? And where am I?" Peter asked, panicking more as time went on.

The blonde guy stood up. "Uh, Peter, do you not remember us?"

"Uh, no?" Peter answered. "Who are you?"

The guy who looked upset stood up and left. Peter was sad about that, but he didn't know why. "Why did he leave? Did I do something?"

"Okay, too many questions." The blonde guy said.

"Sorry." Peter looked down and fumbled with his hands. He had so many questions.

"Okay, well, I'm Steve. The guy over there-" Steve pointed towards the other two in the room. "Is Clint and the girl is Natasha. We are the Avengers. Do you know who you are?"

"Uh, what do you mean? I'm Peter." Peter panicked, not wanting anyone to know about him being Spider-Man.

"No, I mean do you know your superhero thing?" Steve asked.

"Wait, you know?" Peter was confused.

"Yeah, you live here." Steve said as if it was obvious.

"Um, no I don't. I live with Aunt May. Is this a joke or something? Where's Aunt May?" Peter became panicked again.

"Okay, well. Do you not remember what happened between you and your aunt?" Steve was trying to piece together what was happening.

"No?"

"She kicked you out after she found out about Spider-Man."

"Oh."

Steve continued. "So, Tony took you in. That's the guy who just left. So now you live with us."

"Oh." Peter had no idea what to do. "Can you- Can you get Tony in here?" Peter asked.

"Yeah, and I'll get Bruce too. He's the doctor." Peter nodded as Steve left.

The room was silent, as no one knew what to say. Clint and Natasha were sad, while Peter was confused as hell.

"So, uh, who are you guys? Like I know you are Clint and,uh, Natasha, was it? But what do you guys do?" Peter said to break the incredibly awkward silence.

"I'm Hawkeye. I have like really good aim. I never miss." Clint said while acting like he was shooting a bow.

"I'm Black Widow. I'm a spy."

"Oh, cool. I'm Spider-Man." Peter responded. The room went back to silent.

A few minutes later, Steve came back with Tony and a guy Peter assumed was Bruce. Tony's eyes were red from crying.

Bruce came to Peter's side and examined him. He talked after several minutes. "Okay, his concussion made him lose his memory. It should come back soon. But, talk to him about things he would remember. It will help him." With that, Bruce left since he was stressed out and didn't want a code green.

"So, are you Tony?" Peter looked at the guy who left. Tony didn't talk, just nodded.

"So, how do I know you?" Peter asked, wanting him to talk.

"I made your suit. I adopted you too." Tony mumbled.

Peter fished through his mind. I know that voice. I remember it. Come on, Peter. Think!

Peter gave up on thinking after a minute. "That's cool. So Aunt May, she just, kicked me out?"

"Yeah, she didn't like how you were Spider-Man. She thought you were bad." Steve said while looking at Tony.

"Oh, that's stupid. I hel-" Peter stopped talking and closed his eyes. Memories flooded his mind.

Tears fell down Peter's face but he didn't notice. "Wow, my life sucked."

"What?" Tony looked up, concerned.

"I-I remember." Peter noticed the tears. "I'm sorry."

"Sorry for what?" Tony asked softly.

"F-For forgetting. I-I didn't mean to! I swear!" Peter cried harder.

Tony walked up to Peter and hugged him. "Shh, it's okay. I know you didn't mean to." Tony comforted the sobbing kid.

They staying hugged for a while. Peter's sobs turned into hiccups. "Why don't you sleep a little? You head stills hurts, right?" Tony spoke softly.

"Y-yeah." Tony rubbed Peter's back, and let go. He started to walk away. "Wait! Can you, uh. Nevermind." Peter blushed and looked down.

Tony turned to face Peter. "Do you want me to stay?" Peter nodded.

Tony's chest felt warm. He was happy. He laid down next to Peter and wrapped his arms around him. Peter scooted closer to Tony, feeling safe.

Peter soon fell asleep in Tony's embrace. The room was quiet, with only Steve and Tony awake.

"Tony, you need to talk to him about May."

"I know, but he just remembered everything." Tony replied, with Steve totally ruining his mood.

"Tony, you need to tell him. He will forgive you if you tell him. He will figure it out eventually. If you didn't tell him, he won't trust you." Noble Steve said.

"Okay, Steve. I'll tell him once he wakes up. Just let me sleep." Tony shut his eyes, trying to end the conversation.

Steve nodded and got up. He walked out of the room and went to the kitchen to get some food.

Tony soon fell asleep with Peter in his arms. Everyone was happy, but that will soon be ruined once they wake up.
