Capther 2 - A quick answer
Hello! Thanks for the follows and favs! If someone wants to leave a comment, I will be very grateful! It is very important for me to know what you are liking or if this fanfic has really makes sense. I hope you like it! :D
Tony forgot all the words when May arrived at the Tower. Of course, he had told her that he wouldn't call her unless something serious happened to Peter. And he wish he hadn't had to call her. But there she was, and Tony wasn't know to tell him. All his words was in the oblivion.
- "And Peter?" - May asked, clearly with a tone of stress in her voice.
- "He's sleeping, he told me that he hadn't been able to sleep almost because of his headache, so I gave him a small sedative, so we can talk calmly." - Bruce explained quickly to May, who let out a sigh that she didn't know she had been holding up. - "We are going to the hall, there Steve has gathered them all, they are also very worried about Peter."
When they got there, everyone was waiting impatiently. Steve hadn't told them anything, but it was clear from his broken face that something was wrong with the boy, and that worried them too much. Falcon, Bucky, Natasha and Clint waited impatiently. May sat next to Natasha, and Tony simply stood up crossing his arms. He didn't really want to hear what Bruce had to tell them.
The boy was dying. The boy was dying. The boy was dying.
Suddenly he felt a hand on his shoulder, Steve was looking at him with a look of sadness, but still he had a lot of integrity. Steve was watching him trying to make him recover a little. And Tony couldn't help but raise an eyebrow as he tried to avoid looking at him.
Sometimes, definitely, I would break perfect denture he has.
But Tony knew that Steve was just trying to cheer him up. Even though for him he was only bothering him more than anything else.
Then he finally turned his attention to what Bruce was saying. Bruce wasn't even telling them the same thing he was telling them before. He was trying to avoid the direct issue, and he supposed he was used to when he was a doctor.
- "Bruce, spit up, what's wrong with the child?" - Falcon asked too impatient to continue listening to meaningless explanations. Bruce sighed, too deep.
- "He has a brain tumor." - Then he turned to May. -"I'm so sorry." - Banner couldn't help looking away when he heard how that woman began to sob. The rest of the boys had gone blank, not knowing what to say.
- "But Peter doesn't have quick recovery?, Shouldn't he be healing without any problem?" - Natasha asked. Tony opened his eyes. That's! Why was not it working?
- "Cancer is said to be a mutation, humans are trying to mutate into a better version, that is, cancer is a procedure to be a better version of humans within many years." - Bruce began to explain while everyone looked at him expectantly. - "Now, what would happen if for that reason Peter's quick recovery was not working? If instead of helping to recover, it was helping to reproduce it faster?" -
- "Are you saying that because of being Spider-man Peter is going to die?" May asked, and her voice sounded in a tone of hatred that Tony had never heard. And he understood it, he understood it perfectly. - "And what about chemotherapy? Something that can help?" -
- "It will help to delay it for a while, but everything indicates that Peter will end up having metastatases in a not very long time, I know, I'm not helping." - Banner whispered removing his glasses. Tony had already heard too much. Too many times that Peter was going to die and they weren't going to be able to do anything.
He had more difficult than any 15-year-old boy to survive because of being a super-hero.
And a part of guilt invaded him.
He left the room trying to get some air, recompose himself and talk to May about what she wanted about Peter when he saw him there. Peter was sitting on the bench outside with his head down.
- "Mr. Stark? I'm sorry, I've heard it all 'cause my best hearing." - He apologized quickly and then looked at Tony, his face looked too stunned. - "Mr. Stark ... I'm going to die?"-
His answer was too sincere.
- "Yes." -
Tony regretted his response as quickly as it came out.
I'm going to try to develop the relationship Peter-Everyone, May-Peter, May-Tony and Tony-Steve (all in the sense of friends, family). I hope you liked it!
