Peter sat in the messy lab tinkering on a motor. He wiped his hands off and stared at the finished project.

It wasn't actually a just a motor it was tony Starks first iron man motor. Peter had been fancying it up for him. He had shined it and put some cool metal bands on it. There was even , ' The Amazing Iron Man' incripted on it in peters best cursive (which was only mediocre).

It was 11:34 at night. Peter went wandering the penthouse looking for Tony, his bare feet lightly pressing against the smooth, hard wood floor as he crept around.

He found him in the kitchen with a cold glass of water. When Tony saw the kid come in he set the drink down letting out a small clink as the glass touched the marble counter.

The room was dimly lit, sense some people were already sleeping. Tony smiled and quietly said, " Hey kid, what's up? What do you have behind your back?" Peter was hiding the gift behind his back.

He had gotten a bit nervous and felt his heart speed up a little, " Well I found one of the original iron man motors and I hope you don't mind but I just took a look and-"

He cut himself off and held out the motor. It had become warm from being in Peters hands for so long. The dim light glinted off the edge of the motor as Tony walked into the living room to sit down and see it better.

He ushered peter to come. Tony was smiling a huge soft smile. He loved this kid. He looked at the motor and noticed the incripted writing on it. It was clearly hand written by Peter.

He finally said something, "I love it Pete. Thank you."

Peter started talking nervously, " I should have asked, Tony, but I just wanted-" Tony cut him off gently saying, "Its okay if you call me dad- if you want that is, I'm just saying I would be honored because your like a son to me and- don't cry petey." He finished gently pulling peter in closer after he noticed tears glistening in his eyes.

The tears were warm as they slowly rolled down peters soft cheek. Peter felt his heart flowing up. His face was warm against Tony's strong but gentle arm.

"It's just- no one ever asked- I never had someone to call-" he felt a small sob come out as tony rubbed peters back softly. Peter finally whispered, " I love you, dad." Tony felt a single tear slip from his eye as he said, "I love you to, son. I always will."
