A/N: So this is heavy with Endgame spoilers but I changed some things around as well. Tony and Nat lived and Shuri managed to bring Vision back to life. Pepper and Tony are not together in this fic but Tony and Rhodey are married. Pepper was a surrogate for them and gave birth to Morgan. Morgan was a year and a half when the snap happened and this fic takes place a year after Endgame so she's seven now.


Peter sighed as he walked out of his last class of the day, the sounds of Flash openly mocking him fading in the background. Ever since life had returned to, somewhat normal, after the snap, Flash had kind of cooled off and wasn't as much of a jackass to Peter. Some days. Some days, however, he just didn't know when to quit. Someone appeared beside him and he smiled when he realized it was Ned and Michelle.

"I don't understand why you don't just use your 'you know what' on him. Shut him up. tell him off." Ned said as the three walked outside the building.

Peter sighed at that. "You know why, Ned. I'm stronger. I could really hurt him and I don't want to hurt anyone. Ever. Besides, he's gotten... better."

MJ leveled Peter with an unimpressed look. "Define better, Parker. Because it seems he's just as much as of an ass as ever."

"It's not that bad most days," Peter replied as they made their way to the parking lot where Happy was parked.

MJ only rolled her eyes knowing that both she and Peter were both equally stubborn and that this conversation would just keep looping back to the same thing. So she let it go.

"Whatever, Parker."

Ned looked like he wanted to say more but he chose to let it go as Happy came into view.

"Uh oh... what did Peter do this time?" Happy joked having heard Michelle's last comment.

Peter looked offended. "What makes you think I did something, Happy?"

Happy opened the door for the three kids to climb inside. "Because I know you and you are your father's son."

Peter only grumbled, arms crossed in front of him as Ned laughed and MJ smirked at him.

"We were just talking about how Peter should stand up to Flash but he won't because he doesn't want to reveal his powers or hurt anyone," Ned said.

"He's bothering you, again?" Happy asked, not looking too pleased. He didn't like bullies to begin with but he especially hated bullies that messed with any of his kids.

MJ chimed in. "You could just stand up to him and tell him to back off. It doesn't have to get physical."

"She's right, kid," Happy added as he pulled out onto the road.

"I know that." Peter looked down. "Look it isn't like I haven't tried talking to him..."

"Yeah, that's right. You have. And how did that turn out?" Ned asked.

"Dude! Hush!" Peter hissed at Ned.

"No!" Ned didn't want to back down. He didn't like seeing his best friend hurt at all. "You told him to back off and he shoved you into the lockers."

"He did what?" Happy asked, almost slamming on the breaks.

"Thanks a lot, Ned," Peter glared at his best friend.

"Yes thank you, Ned, for telling me because that is bullying and it can't go unaddressed." Happy was fuming now.

"You guys it's OK. The principal already took care of it. That's why Flash had detention for a week...

MJ sighed. "And that's why he's been even more relentless for the past couple of weeks, right?"

Peter's silence said it all.

"Wait, why didn't Morita call your dads or the at least me." Something seemed to occur to the head of security. "You told him not too, didn't you?"

Peter nodded. "I didn't think it was a big deal. And no, Ned." He spoke up as the other boy opened his mouth. "None of this is an excuse to use my powers."

Ned shut his mouth and rolled his eyes. "I just want you to be OK and to not get hurt. You're my best friend and it's hard enough seeing you get hurt when you're Spider-Man..."

Peter softened at that. "I know. Trust me I do. But I still don't want anyone to get hurt because of my powers. No civilians anyway and Flash, bully or not, is a civilian."

"You're a good guy, Parker but you don't have to put up with Flash like this all the time," MJ said, nose stuck in a book, but not even paying attention to it.

"At least talk to your dads or Principal Morita about it," Happy pleaded as he turned onto MJ's street. He pulled over to let the girl out and turned to face Peter. "She's right," he said pointing to MJ. "You are a great kid, very responsible with your powers and I respect that, but this Flash kid is getting out of control."

Peter sighed again and looked at his hands. "I will think about it. But I promise if it gets any worse I will tell someone right away."

They all seemed to accept that and the subject was dropped. MJ climbed out of the car and bid them goodbye as she walked up to her apartment building. Happy pulled away and continued driving the kids home.


As soon as Peter walked in the front door of the compound, a body flung itself at him and he stumbled to the ground.

"Petey!" Morgan smiled up at her older brother and hugged him tightly. "I missed you!"

Peter smiled at the seven-year-old and returned the hug. "I missed you too, kiddo! How was school?"

"It was great! We made rainbows today in science!" Morgan said happily.

"Whoa! Rainbows? No way! Are you going to show me how to do that? I want to try!" Peter slowly stood up with his sister in his arms.

"I'll show you, Petey!" the little girl said as Peter carried her to the kitchen for a snack.

"I can't wait, Mo. Maybe this weekend."

Peter sat the girl down on a stool next to the kitchen island and turned towards the fridge to get the both of them a snack. "What do you want, Mo?"

"Cheeseburgers!" She squealed happily.

Peter chuckled at that and pulled out a couple of juice boxes as well as some animal crackers from the cupboard. "How about juice and crackers, sweetheart?"

"Oh fine." Morgan relented as she happily accepted a juice box from her brother.

Peter sat down next to the girl and pulled out his homework while she did the same. They worked on their assignments in comfortable silence, Peter occasionally pausing to help Morgan out with any question she had. They both finished up about an hour later when Natasha walked into the kitchen.

"Aunty Nat!" Morgan lifted her arms indicating that she wanted to be picked up.

Natasha smiled down at the little girl and swiftly scooped her up into her arms. "Hello, my little вспыльчивый." She kissed the girl on the forehead and leaned over to kiss Peter on his forehead as well. "Hello,my маленький паук."

Peter kissed her cheek. "Hey, Aunt Nat. How are you?"

"Good. Just dealing with some government business today. How was school?"

"It was good. I aced my Spanish quiz today."

Natasha smiled and congratulated him as she walked over to the stove to turn it on. "Do you kids want to help me cook dinner?"

"I do!" Morgan happily accepted as Natasha set her down so she could get out the ingredients for lasagna.

"You guys go ahead. I'm going to see if dad needs help in the lab." Peter said as he stood up and slung his backpack over his shoulder. He leaned down and kissed Morgan's hair before bidding the two goodbye.


"Hey, dad." Peter greeted as he walked into Tony's lab.

Tony looked up from the Iron Man suit he was working on and smiled at his son. "Hey, Underoos. How was school?"

"It was good. We watched a movie in Chem today so I worked on my web fluids today. I think I figured out a way to make it stronger."

"Oh cool let me see," Tony said as he gave his son a hug.

They worked side by side for the next couple of hours working on Tony's Iron Man suit and Harley's Iron Lad suit until Rhodey came to get them for dinner.

"Hey you two, dinner is ready. Nat is calling everyone to come up now."

"OK, we'll be up in just a minute," Tony called out to his husband.

"Don't be too long you guys, otherwise it will be cold and Bruce may eat your share," Rhodey warned them.

"OK, we're coming!" Peter promised as he went over to the sink in the lab to wash his hands.

Tony sighed and stood up, stretching to get the kinks out of his sore muscles. He took a minute to survey the work they had just done before nodding in satisfaction.

"We did good today, kid. I think these suit adjustments are coming along nicely and I think Harley will be happy with the changes to his suit. Come on, Underoos. Let's go get some chow."

Peter smiled up at his dad as he threw an arm around him. "Where is Harley any way? He never misses a chance to work on suits together."

"He went back to Tennessee for a few days to visit his mom and Ana. He had a break from school so he took the opportunity to go see them."

Peter nodded in understanding. If he was Harley, he'd snatch up every opportunity to see his family that he could. Especially since Ana, his sister had been dusted and missing or five years. Peter was the same way. He hardly ever left his family's side except for school or going on patrol. But even when he went on patrol, he had someone with him most nights.

Once Peter had returned from the Soul Stone, he had been incredibly clingy with his family, scared that they, or even he, would disappear especially after Tony wielded the Iron Gauntlet and almost died. His dads had definitely noticed and they had talked about it and, at their insistence, he had eventually talked to someone about it. And it was no surprise to anyone that Peter had developed PTSD and separation anxiety. They weren't any better themselves. But it had gotten better in the year that the dusted had been brought back but there were still times that Peter couldn't stand to be away from his family.

"What are you thinking about, kid?" Tony asked as they got in the elevator to head upstairs.

Peter shook his head and leaned further into his dad's side. "Just glad to be here with you and pops and Morgan."

Tony nodded, understanding where Peter's mind had just been. "We're here my little spiderling. We're here and we're not going anywhere anytime soon." They entered the kitchen, stomachs growling.

"Everything looks great, Nat." Rhodey was saying as Tony and Peter took their seats.

"Hey, pops," Peter greeted as he ruffled Morgan's hair.

"Hey, Pete. Nice of you two to join us," he teased.

Peter chuckled as he passed the garlic bread to a waiting Clint. They all dug in as Natasha and Rhodey handed out plates of lasagna. It was nice Peter thought having his entire family there at once. Clint, Natasha, Bucky, Sam, Wanda, Bruce, Vision, Tony, Rhodey, Pepper, Happy and Morgan. Of course, there were some people missing with Thor traveling with the Guardians and Steve having had gone back in time to settle down with Peggy. Peter missed them greatly but he understood why they chose to leave. But it was nice to still have the family he had currently.

"Hey Pete," Rhodey asked, "your dad and I have to go out of town this weekend and everyone else is busy. Can you watch Morgan this weekend? Or did you have decathlon practice this weekend?"

Peter shook his head. "No, I have nothing this weekend. I can watch her."

"Thank you, son. We'll only be gone for a couple of days. Just promise me you'll both get all of your homework done."

"I promise, pops," Peter said. "We promise don't we Morgan?"

The little girl eagerly nodded her head. "We promise, papa!"

Rhodey smiled at them and turned back to his dinner. The rest of the evening went smoothly. Everyone made light conversation and helped with the dishes after dinner was over. Peter took Morgan up to bed and tucked her in and then settled down in the common room with Wanda, Clint, and Bucky to watch a movie. Things were nice and peaceful for once in their hectic lives. Little did they know that things were about to drastically change.
