Where's Peter?

Summary: Now everyone in their floor knows Peter's secret identity, but Rebecca also sucks at hiding it. So, naturally, Tony Stark finds out.

Part 2 of Real Internship

▪▪▪▪▪

"Word has gotten around that there's a new super genius in the building," Tony commented to Pepper in hopes of getting more information.

Pepper hummed in response, confirming the rumor.

Tony waited patiently for her to speak, but she didn't say anything else about it. The billionaire rose a brow in question, prompting her to tell him about it.

"Since when are you interested on the interns?" Pepper asked in confusion.

"Since the head scientist told me he's like a smaller version of me."

"A 12% smaller?" she asked, making Tony sigh.

"I thought we were over this already."

"We're never going to be over this." The billionaire glared halfheartedly at her, making her smile.

"So, about this intern?" Tony pushed, finally getting the CEO to speak.

"His name is Peter Parker."

"But I just don't get why you didn't leave and enter through the hallway's windows and not the one beside your desk that is literally in front of everyone," one of the interns told Peter in amusement as they worked together in his web shooters.

"Oh, shut up, Caty. Try to think straight after taking down a telepathic gorilla, I dare you," Peter said, but he was smiling. He was glad he could now talk openly about his alter ego and have help with the tech.

Caty raised her hands in a "I'm innocent" fashion, making Peter laugh.

"I almost have the new web formula for you, Peter!" Rebecca said from the other side of the room. Peter flashed her a grateful smile and a thumbs up.

"People speak of this Peter as if he were at my level," Tony commented.

"Who knows? He might be," Pepper said in response.

"I mean, it makes sense or he wouldn't be an intern here at fifteen. It's still strange, how they call him a mini me so much I mean. We have dozens of geniuses working here, that's what we do, but all the scientists were very specific at saying he was a mini me."

"I sure hope he doesn't share some of your habits, though, like not sleeping, living off caffeine and having a guilt complex bigger than your ego."

"Hey!" Tony frowned at her, but a small smile tugged at his lips, betraying his complaint.

"Hey, Peter," an intern said as he approached them. "I was wondering if you could help me with a little project of mine?"

Immediately leaving what he was doing, Peter agreed. "Sure, Julian."

They worked in harmony, quickly getting everything done, and then Julian started telling him about new ideas he had had to improve the suit's mask. Peter listened to the genius in fascination, making some additions of his own in between. As soon as their brainstorming session had finished, they dived into work to give their ideas a physical form.

"Almost there, Peter!" Rebecca said in regard of the web formula she was currently working on. Peter smiled at her, and that's when he got an alert by Karen.
