Miss You 3,000

Peter

I walk into my room and slam the door hard. As I expected, I hear heavy footsteps. Aunt May

She knocks on my door and I can hear her jiggling the handle

"Peter? Are you okay? Please talk to me"

"Go away" i choke. She slides down the door and sits on the floor, leaning on it

"Listen to me, you don't have to talk, just listen... this isn't healthy Peter. You're shutting out your emotions-"

"Don't tell me what im doing, im doing what I need to" I growl

"Peter, this is consuming you. You have so many people who care about you and understand what your going through. Nobody could ever know what Tony meant to you, you know i know that right? I know it makes it 100 times worse knowing that he did it for you but you need to stop. Stop ignoring everyone, stop bottling things up until you explode on somebody. Ned told me what happened. I love you so much, and if you love me you will open this door, stop shutting everyone out, and start letting people love you"

I press my head against the door slide my fingers along the trim, finally reaching the handle and twisting the lock

"Okay" I can hear her sigh of relief as she swings the door open softly. She leans down and pulls me close to her

"What do I do now, May?" tears start to roll down my face. One by one turns into a steady downpour and i choke trying to stop them. May puts her hand over my head and pulls me closer to her

"You get to know Morgan, you let other people be sad with you, you eventually put it past you and move on with your life. But for now maybe you should start with talking to Ned?" I pull my head back and nod. Wiping the tears on my sleeve

I stand up and turn over my room looking for my phone. I finally find it under my bed

"Hello?"

"Hey Ned"

"Peter! Please don't hang up-"

"I wont... im sorry about earlier today i just... there's something I didn't tell you about... what happened with the Avengers"

"Wait are you officially an Avenger?"

"Well, yeah. Ironman told me i was when we first got onto the ship"

"Yuss! So what did you want to tell me?"

"Tony is... gone" the line is silent for what feels like forever until he finally responds

"Stark?"

"What other Tony, Ned?" I say, suddenly annoyed

"I'm sorry Peter. He was like your... dad"

"He wasn't my like 'dad' he was just my mentor"

"Ha! Okay Peter, look i've seen mentors, well in movies, but I can say for sure that he was more than that"

"You're not helping, Ned"

"Right sorry! I get now why you didn't want to talk to me. Are you still doing spidey stuff? Like are you still an Avenger?"

"Yeah i am an Avenger. But i haven't done 'spidey stuff' in a few weeks" silence

"Well, I really am sorry Peter, i get it if you don't really wanna do stuff. Like it sounds just so awful I mean, losing the one person in your life who you thought believed in you and-"

"Ned"

"Sorry. But like where have you been going off to each day if you haven't been Spider-Manning?"

"I've been... visiting Morgan"

"Oo-aaa-ooo whos mmmmmmorgannnnn?" he asks, I can almost hear his smirk from here
