This isn't going to be fun.

Peter woke up to the med bay. He looked to his right and saw Tony, he looked to his left and saw Ned and MJ. All three were asleep. Peter groaned and sat up, waking up Tony in the process. "Peter! You're awake!" Tony exclaimed.

"Yeah," Peter responded. "I am." Tony frowned and looked down.

"I'm sorry," Tony mumbled. "For not noticing."

"It's a shame it didn't work." Peter told him bluntly. "I really am a failure, can't even succeed in killing myself." He laughed a humorless laugh. Tony wiped an escaping tear.

"You're not a failure, Peter." Tony told him, trying to keep his voice steady. "You're amazing, whether you realize or not. You're the smartest, kindest, bravest young man I have ever met. Well, it's a tie, actually." Tony smiled at Peter. "I want you to know that I'm here for you."

"How is you being there for me going to help when I'm not even there for myself." Peter asked. "I should've used a gun, would've been quicker. More accurate." Peter layed down again.

"I love you." Tony told him firmly. "Don't you ever forget that." Peter glanced at him.

"I don't regret it." Peter told him flatly. "I will try again."

"That's what scares me." Tony frowned. He looked down, trying to will the tears to go away.

"Why do you even care, Tony?" Peter asked him. "I thought this would mean nothing to you."

"Of course I care!" Tony shot his head up, tears beginning to fall down his face. "I love you with all my heart! How could I not care?!" Peter stared at him blankly.

"I have nothing left for me here." Peter told him. "My family is dead, my friends ignore me half the time, the entirety of New York sees me as a criminal," Tony glanced at the still sleeping MJ and Ned. "And my new family? They forget I'm there." Peter laughed a humorless laugh. "I thought that no one would notice if I suddenly...stopped showing up."

"I'm so glad Ned and MJ found you in time." Tony grabbed Peter's hand a squeezed it. "I don't know what I would have done if you'd...y'know..."

"Died?" Peter harshly pulled his hand away, causing Tony to frown. Peter scoffed. "We all know damn well you would forget about me in the span of a month." Peter spat bitterly. "And don't you dare argue with me because we both know I'm right."

"I didn't realize I was causing you so much pain." Tony whispered. "I'm so sorry, kid. I'm such an idiot."

"Is this really what it takes?" Peter asked him, his voice barely above a whisper. "Does it take this for you to finally notice me? If I hadn't done it, you still would've continued ignoring me." Peter frowned. "This is what it takes for you to finally have your damn wake up call?"

MJ stirred, her eyes fluttered open. Peter and Tony didn't notice. "Listen, kid--"

"Don't call me that." Peter snarled. Tony visibly flinched.

"I...I believe that the universe knew that it was time for me to open my fucking eyes, and the universe also knew that your time hadn't come." Tony said.

"Yeah? The universe is a load of bullshit!" Peter yelled. "The universe sticks me with this piece of shit that I call life and expects me to be all fine and dandy?!"

"Peter, the only thing that matters is that you're alive, and that I will do everything in my power to help you." Tony smiled softly. "And I'll start by giving you the attention you deserve."

"Too little too late, Mr. Stark." Peter glared at Tony. "You had your chance, it's too late to try and fix it now."

"Peter, the poor man is only trying to make amends." MJ chimed in, startling Peter and Tony. "At least give him one more chance, if he fails I'll personally skin him alive."

"Oh shut it, Michelle." Peter spat. "Everyone in this room had their chance and I refuse to give you another!" Peter growled as he swung his legs over to the side of the hospital bed.

"Kid--" Tony began. "You shouldn't--"

Peter yanked out the IV cords and stormed out.

Little did Tony know was that the next time he saw Peter, would be at his funeral.
