Here's the second part of the previous chapter, its really long, sorry. I hope you enjoy it!

Start Me Up

The Rolling Stones

Maggie tugged at the bottom hem of her dress trying to get it to cover a little more of her legs. The USO girl dress only really covered the front of her torso and barely the top of her legs, leaving her back, arms, and long legs exposed. Looking in the mirror, Maggie thanked God she had inherited Tony's slightly darker complexion and Steve's lean build. Her hair was in liberty curls because she didn't want to spend the extra money on the helmet, knowing she wouldn't wear it long anyway. She was also wearing more makeup than she had in a while, with typical cat-eyes and red lipstick. It was amazing what a credit card and express shipping could get you these days. The dress looked just like the ones in Cap's pictures, even though it was just a replica. Fliers had been passed out and dispersed throughout the school for the few days leading up to this Saturday. She had only kissed her fathers goodbye twenty minutes before Peter arrived to help set up. They had a mission with SHIELD who-knows-where and said they wouldn't be back for a few days because they weren't exactly sure what they were dealing with. Though this was all still so new to Maggie, the re-forming of the Avengers only happening four years ago, she learned to numb the worry for everyone she loved so much while they were on missions and cherish her time with them when they weren't.

Right now she needed to focus. Peter would probably be wondering why she was spending so much time in her room putting on her costume. The jungle juice was out and in two massive punch bowls, the candy had been properly laid out, along with the fake body parts and spiderwebs and the hard apple cider was keeping warm in a giant, insulated Gatorade cooler. People would be arriving in about twenty minutes if they came on time, and some people were bound to, considering the entire school was talking about it.

"JARVIS?"

"Yes, miss."

"Keep the blinds in the main room closed, as well as the doors to the balcony, you know how well you can see into that room when the lights are all on. I don't need 'Wild Party at Tony Stark's' making it to the paper while my dads are away."

"Yes, miss. Here is a list of all the doors that will be locked during the party. You can open any of them with the palm scan throughout the night. I will be turning off so that I will not be held responsible for any of this." Maggie grimaced but thanked JARVIS one last time before the read out shut off. She pulled open her bedroom door to find Peter leaned against the oposite wall with his arms crossed. He lifted his head when he heard the door open.

"God Mags I thought you got lost in-" Peter's eyes went wide when he saw Maggie in the bright spangled dress. It was well tailored to fit her small waist and the plunging neckline- Peter swallowed hard and tried to appear aloof, "You look amazing!" okay, maybe aloof was not his thing. Maggie's eyes quickly scanned Peter's costume. He was wearing a skin-tight flawless replica of the new Spiderman's costume. It showed his slight muscle tone and- Maggie didn't mean to spend so much time looking at his crotch.

"Dude, where did you get that? It looks just like the actual Spiderman costume!"

"Uh," Peter ran his hands through his hair nervously, but Maggie didn't notice, "Internet? The mask is itchy, though, so I don't like wearing it."

"Gees it looks really good," Maggie said as she followed Peter down the hallway. She could not stop staring at his ass, tonight was going to be hard. Good thing Wade was coming. His response to her invitation was, "Miss the opportunity to watch a bunch of slutty teenagers get drunk for the first time? Never!"

The party was in full swing and though everyone was pretty drunk and Maggie had seen a lot more of her classmates than she wanted, it all seemed to be going well. Wade had been gone a while and she found herself awkwardly chatting with one of the girls in her chemistry class.

"Maggie, I'm sorry I was so mean to you in class, I had no idea you were so cool!"

"I mean, I did throw off the curve. . ."

"No, no! It's fine, you're like so smart, don't devalue that just 'cause we do! God, teenagers can be such dicks sometimes, am I right?" the girl rambled. Maggie just nodded slowly and searched the room for Wade, or even Peter. She wished she had seen Wade first instead of Peter, who was just across the room being squeezed by a bunch of girls who would've never talked to him before. Just before Maggie could let out an involuntary groan an arm snaked around her waist and Wade nibbled on her neck. Maggie could feel her face growing hot and an uncomfortable feeling had settled heavily in her stomach as she watched Peter. She gently pushed Wade away because like always, he chose the wrong time to be affectionate.

"Babe, I want you to meet Vanessa, she's the mute I was telling you about," Wade said with a wily grin on his face. Maggie wasn't especially fond of the female mutants Wade hung out with because they were very possessive and pushy. Maggie turned wearily to look at the girl with long white hair, blue skin, and nothing but a corset and lacey short-shorts. Maggie had had enough to drink for the night without being useless so she spoke before she could even stop herself, "What the hell are you supposed to be?" The girl just shrugged and grinned lazily at Wade. The feeling in Maggie's stomach sunk a litte farther.

"Babe, she's totally down with- ya know," Wade said waggling his eyebrows. Maggie's eyes narrowed and her face turned into one of pissed incredulity.

"You were serious about the threesome?" Maggie tried very hard to keep from shouting. She didn't see Peter approach, who with one glance at Maggie noticed the tension in the situation. "Wade, who the fuck do you think I am? One of your mutant sluts?" Maggie's voice raised a little higher and she hoped no one was paying attention to their conversation.

"Hey!" the blue girl shouted angrily. She was, after all, a mutant slut.

"Babe," Wade responded, condescendingly laying a hand on Maggie's shoulder. She suddenly felt sickened by his touch and shoved his hand off her shoulder.

"Leave," she said with a slight growl to her voice, "NOW! Both of you!"

"Babe-"

"Don't 'Babe' me! God I hate when you call me that! I don't even know what I saw in you! You ruined me Wade, I'm just a teenager and you ruined me. My dad's were right, now please leave before I make you," Maggie said holding back tears thinking about her youth and innocence that had been lost on this idiot. Wade held his hands up in surrender then led Vanessa into the main elevator. Maggie finally noticed Peter and a few tears spilled out over her bottom lids.

"He didn't even put up a fight," she said flatly. "I wasted so much time on him." Without thinking twice Peter pulled Maggie into a tight hug. She wrapped her arms around Peter and squeezed as hard as she could, with her face pressed into her chest. Despite the fact that no one was so much as glancing their way, the room felt too crowded, too noisy, too hot. Maggie pulled Peter to the elevator to leave the main floor for one of the private floors. When the elevator doors opened they stepped out onto a floor Peter had never been on. Maggie chose this floor because it was nice and far from the party, and she needed fresh air. They both walked down the hallway and rounded a corner only to hear that someone else was there.

"I hate this stupid tower! I never know how to get out," they heard a familiar voice grumble. Maggie slapped her hand on the nearest palm scanner and pushed Peter in the second the door slid open, just in time to hide from a very lost Wade and blue girl. Their entrance into the room caused the lights to flicker on slowly, dramatically as her dad liked it. It was then that Maggie froze because she realized what room they were in, a room that was off limits to anyone outside the family. She spun around slowly to see Peter staring not at her dad's old Iron Man armor, but at something no one was ever supposed to see, Cap's spare suit and shield.

"Maggie, is Steve Captain America?" Peter asked, gingerly reaching out and touching the shining star on the metal shield. Tony was the only member of the Avengers whose identity was fully known by the public, everyone else was up for speculation. Maggie couldn't even muster a brainless, "Uh," nothing at all came out. Peter turned slowly and faced Maggie, "And your weird Uncle T? Aunt Tasha and Uncle Clint? Bruce?" Maggie's jaw was hanging dumbly as she shook her head. "They're the Avengers!" he shouted excitedly. "Oh my God why didn't you tell me? Right, secret identities, I understand. This is so cool. Holy crap, Maggie!" He gripped her shoulders tightly as the words spilled out of his mouth. Maggie stared at Peter blankly, what had she done?

"Maggie? Mags? Margaret! Say something," Peter said shaking her gently.

"I- uh. . ."

"Maggie I have something I want to tell you," Peter said, his voice suddenly husky. He moved his hands from the top of Maggie's arms to her waist and bent his head so that they were eye-level. Maggie shook her head quickly and focused her eyes on Peter's so that he knew she was there, paying attention. Her heart was still pounding from Peter's discovery, but she knew she could trust him, he didn't talk to anyone else anyway. She couldn't even comprehend the fact that the situation she was in right now should've been making her heart race all on its own. Peter took a deep breath and his face moved imperceptibly closer to Maggie's.

"I'm Spiderman."

"What?" That was not what Maggie had expected. At all. She had half hoped that he was going to confess his love for her or something, but this was so much heavier than that.

"I was afraid to tell anyone, but look what you've been hiding all this time. I knew I could trust you, Maggie, I love you," Peter said looking at her very intently. Well, there was the confession of love, but still. He moved a hand to Maggie's cheek and tilted her face up to kiss her. She, for the first time in her life, understood the meaning of having butterflies in her stomach. It was soft and sweet and the best kiss Maggie had ever had, but it didn't last long because they were interrupted.

"Miss."

"JARVIS, gees I thought you were off for the night," Maggie said pulling away from Peter with an apologetic look.

"Miss, your fathers are arriving," JARVIS responded without emotion or opinion, offering her absolutely no help or sympathy.

Maggie and Peter found themselves sprinting up the stairs back to the main floor because at least that way they were constantly moving. The thought of standing still in the elevator for even a minute stressed Maggie out. It wasn't even midnight yet so the party was still going strong, but the music cut out suddenly and everyone stopped and turned toward the kid DJ-ing. Even Maggie stopped dead in her tracks causing Peter to run right into her. Maggie's eyes went wide when she realized the DJ was holding one of her dad's records up. Some kids shouted at him to put the music back on and he did just that. The familiar opening bars to Start Me Up by the Rolling Stones started playing, but perfectly in sync the DJ started playing around on his computer and it turned into some crazy dubstep remix, and Maggie had to admit to herself that it wasn't half bad. Once everyone was placated and went back to grinding Maggie took the music as a cue for her brain to start back up and remember what she was doing. She grabbed Peter's wrist and led him out onto the balcony where JARVIS usually collected her dad's suit.

Tony was already out of his suit and Steve was walking alongside him towards the doors to get out of the October chill.

"Maggie! Hey, I recognize that dress," Steve said with a big smile and he opened his arms to his daughter.

"False alarm!" Tony said, watching the two, slightly mad at himself for not being such an affectionate person. He was the first to notice Peter and he suddenly worked to smooth things over seeing as Steve was still completely spangled. "Petey, don't you like Steve's Halloween costume?" he asked in an over-cheerful voice.

"He knows, he figured it out," Maggie replied quietly. Tony looked shocked, but Steve chuckled and pat Peter on the back.

"Always knew you were smarter than you looked, son," Steve said jokingly. Peter smiled weakly because he knew Maggie's dads wouldn't be quite so fond of him once they went inside.

"That's a bold costume choice, Pete," Tony said raising an eyebrow.

"Oh, um," Peter awkwardly held his hands in front of his crotch and cleared his throat.

"Not what I meant," Tony responded with a knowing smile. Peter looked after him confused as he walked towards the door into the apartment.

"Wait!" Maggie called, for once not having any sort of plan. "I love you guys, can we have a group hug? I'm just-" she pretended to get choked up, "- so glad you're back and in one piece!" Tony and Steve turned slowly around to look at their daughter, not an ounce of gullibility on their faces.

"Margaret, don't start with me. You weren't good at lying when you were little, and I'm ashamed you aren't any better now," Tony said shaking his head, though he had a slight look of pride on his face. "We better brace ourselves, Steve, this could get ugly." And with that they turned and stepped into the party.

Peter pulled Maggie into his side because he feared it might be the last time he would ever see her after her dads were through with her.

"I'm so dead."
