Adoption Papers.

Pete had been living with Tony and Pepper for about a month now… May died in a car crash after some idiot tried to j-walk. So, Pete was still really hurt worried about everything. Where would he stay? What would happen to him? Tony had promised to take care of him, but how?

So, when Tony had woken up one day and gotten to work almost instantly. Pete was surprised by the fact that he was working on something, then to come and find out that it was for him. Pete was over the moon and/or very worried.

"What are you working on Mr. Stark?" Tony turned around and looked at Pete. They both had small smiles on their face.

"Something for the new building space." That's all the information he had given Pete. Which was weird, because Tony was usually pretty open with him. However, not today and so Pete took his chance to leave. He didn't need Tony to have a heart to heart with him… or evict him.

Tony came out hours later and walked into the Penthouse area. He looked rather tired, but excitement was easily plastered on his face. "What's with you? Peter asked without even thinking.

"Ohhh… Nothing. Well, something for you." Pete looked and Tony waved the kid over.

"Now come here." Pete walked closer to Tony and the man pulled something from his back. It was blue and red, with little white web like designs. One side had Pete's face on it and the other was a holographic Spider-Man print. It was a new key card type thing for the building.

"Here, you'll need this for…" Tony motioned for Pete to follow him and the two stepped onto the elevator. "Friday take use to floor 87." The A.I. gave an 'okay boss' and the elevator began to move downward.

Floor 87 had been used for chem labs at one point but had sat vacant for over five years. So, to be heading down to 87 was a surprise for Pete. The elevator eventually came down to the floor and Tony motioned for Pete to swipe his card.

"Peter Parker, access level 10, threat level 93%. Welcome Junior." Karen's voice came over the system and the doors began to open. The two walked in and a fully kited out lab with Spider suits… Iron suits and vintage cars sat on the level. Pete looked around and let out a small "Wow".

Tony let go a chuckled and the two walked over to bar/kitchen area in the center. On the mid-section sat a small stack of papers.

"So, this is the new lab area, the one on 92 isn't big enough for all of our projects and I figured you needed some space. Listen… Pete it's been great having you around and…" Pete cut him off, he couldn't believe this was the end. Tony was getting rid of him. He was going to have to go back on the street.

"No… please I don't want to go. I like it here and." Tony stopped the kid; he placed his hand over his mouth and soothed him.

"You're not going anywhere… I promise, I would never do that to you. Me and, Pepper decided it was best you stay here full time. We… um, decided to adopt you kido. If that's okay?" Pete couldn't believe it and, and were those tears falling from Tony's eyes? Pete pulled Tony into a hug and murmured… "I love you to dad."

Authors Notes…

I know the new lab is shoehorned in here but… IDK the idea kind of just came to me. Hope you enjoyed and sorry for posting this either late or early… I've got to go have Christmas with one part of my family. So, yea, hope everyone has a Merry Christmas… Not a happy holiday, I call bs on that whole idea that you can't say Merry Christmas. However, if your Jewish, then happy Hanukkah.
