WHO: Tony Stark, Peter & May Parker
WHAT: Reunions
WHERE: Tony's office in the building
WHEN: Monday, Sept. 21
WARNINGS: Tony's mouth, probably

Tony dashed a note to May on the network once he heard from Peter. Should he have waited to see the boy with his own two eyes? What if he was hurt? Peter might not want his aunt seeing him hurt. But what if he wasn't hurt? May would want to see her nephew straight away. Tony knew that because he needed to see Peter right away. He needed to see he was whole and healthy and alive.

"Calm down, Stark," he muttered to himself. "Calm the fuck down. The kid can't see you like this." He took several deep breaths and imagined Rhodey talking him down from a panic attack. He focused on what Rhodes would say if he was there. "Gotta be there for the kid," Tony, then much calmer, reminded himself.

"You don't know that. You don't know that he was the only one." There may be several things that were going on in Peter's head - grief steps that were jumbled or just a miasma of feelings he wasn't really sure how to manage. He glared a little at the flick to his nose. "I'm - I'm scared, Tony." Clearly something was up if he'd dropped the formality. Just don't ask him exactly what, he's not sure he'd be able to say.

Tony wished he could offer the boy more comfort, but, truly, what could he say? He could only promise him he'd do his best to keep them both safe. "I know," he said gently, "I'm scared too. I don't want to lose you or Morgan. I missed you so damn much these last five years. I love you, kid, okay? I'm going to do everything I can to keep us both here." He reached for a sofa pillow, put it in his lap, and patted it. "Why don't you get some rest, kid? I'll stay with you." He'd hold him all night if he wanted.

It's actually really weird. Peter had come from a time and place where Mr. Stark was still half-annoyed at his existence. And he never would've told Peter that he missed him, much less loved him. This was all so bizarre for him. The fact that he hadn't laugh-cried himself into some sort of fugue state is pretty impressive.

There's no fight at all when Mr. Stark suggested he sleep. Despite having no idea how long he'd been awake, he hadn't really felt tired until just now. He didn't say anything, just rested his head on the pillow and tucked his feet up on the couch. "Will you..." a slightly hitched breath, "will you just - talk to me until I fall asleep?"

Tony kept running his hand through Peter's hair, trying to lull him to sleep. "Sure," he agreed. He'd focus on the present and the future, not the past. "We're going to have fun once you are rested," he promised. "We'll tinker in my lab in a few days and we'll have dinner on Sunday and we'll..." He just kept talking about all the things they'd do together.

Peter really liked the sound of Mr. Stark's voice. And, especially today, he needed to know Mr. Stark was there. Alive. Not burned. Hearing him talk while he fell asleep let him know that.

It didn't take him very long to fall asleep, but he had forced himself to stay awake a little longer than he might otherwise, just to listen to all the things Mr. Stark said they were gonna do. He wanted to stay awake longer and keep listening, but his weary body wouldn't let him and he finally drifted off, relaxing against Mr. Stark's lap.
