A Short Story

Fandom: Marvel

Pairing: Peter Parker X Reader

Prompt: A friend’s request. @arrowwolf13

The kid had not been an Avenger long, but she was already in love with him. Every time he would make a joke or a pop culture reference she would laugh and play along with him. It drove Tony nuts, but he was happy that the kid found someone who liked him and everything that he did. At this point, Tony wanted to play matchmaker as the two of them would sit and giggle with each other all of the time, but neither one of them would make a move. Maybe the signals they were giving off were wrong, but when was he ever wrong. (hahahahahahaha always)

Peter found the girl one day staring out the window as if she wanted to join the others who were practicing in the training yard, “hey! You should just go out there and join them.”

She shrugged, “I am good. I was just watching Steve.”

Peter sat beside her, pulling up a chair and sitting on it backward to watch out the window too, “he is pretty fascinating huh?”

“Only a little,” She muttered putting her chin on her arms which rest on the chair she was sitting backward on.

Peter laughed and said, “You seem to be pretty interested the way that you are staring at him.”

She glanced over at Peter, “How...am I staring at him?”

Peter smiled at the fact that he caught her attention, “Like he is someone that you would want to marry someday.”

“Um...as tempting as that is, he is too old for me.” She commented on his observation.

“Only a lottle!” Peter laughed, “he’s only ninety something!”

She looked over at Peter, “Oh yeah? Are you keeping tabs on him?

“Mr. Stark says it is good to know that kind of stuff,” Peter explained, “like you are (insert your own age).” 

“Huh. Okay. What is...my favorite animal?” She started to quiz him.

“Hmm...wolf yeah?” Peter smirked as he saw her face.

“Uh...yeah. Favorite Avenger?” She stared at him.

“Obviously Cap!” Peter grinned thinking he had her down.

“No.” She smirked knowing she had stumped the precious boy.

He stared at her for a moment, “that is a tough one I suppose.”

“Not really. It is you.” She still had a smirk on her face.

That took him a moment to process as he stared at her, “Me?”

She giggled, “Only a Lottle.” She repeated his previous words which made him laugh.

“Like that word huh?” Peter asked.

“I do.” She leaned towards him.

Not quite understanding why she was leaning towards him yet, he leaned into her face, “you mean...a lotte?” He almost whispered.

She chuckled and planted a kiss on his lips, holding his head there for a moment as she did. Confused, yet happy that this was happening he pulled her chair a bit closer to him and deepened the kiss himself. After a few moments of bliss, Peter pulled away for air and grinned at her.

“I’m guessing you liked that a lottle.” She winked at him.

Peter laughed hard as he started to blush a little, “yeah...a lottle...”

“Finally!” Tony shouted out to them, having been there the whole time.

That was when Peter’s face lit up bright red and he quickly turned to look outside, “M-Mr. Stark...”

She glared at Tony, “were you....recording that?!”

Tony smirked, “Only a lottle.”

“Shut up! You aren’t allowed to use that word!” She shouted at him.

Tony laughed, “good! ‘Cause it is irritating!” 

Peter grabbed her hand, “lets go somewhere else.”

She nodded and took off with Peter, “what a way to ruin a moment.”

Peter squeezed her hand, “I don’t think he ruined it. I still have you here.” 

“Why do you have to be so cute?” She blushed.

“Someone has to be.” He joked.
