Feeling a familiar tingle he looks up from his phone and looks for what might be setting it off now. ‘Nothing seems to be different from how they usually are?’ he thinks as he tries to hear if maybe someone is in danger. Getting closer to his apartment is when he sees something definitely out of place. He can't tell the model but it’s obviously expensive, deciding to ignore it and go on a quick patrol before he has to head over to Manhattan again to check out if anything is up. Shifting the VCR player he got from the dog alleyway he quickly heads over to the stairs once inside bypassing the broken elevator.
Walking pass Sam, likely late for work again, he pulls out his keys and unlocks the door for their apartment.
“Hey May.” he says as he slides off his backpack. Quickly locking the door he sets down the VCR on the table with the laundry he hadn't gotten around to doing, he’ll need to get them folded before May gets off her next shift. He and Miles were busy trying something and lost track of time. Thankfully he got home in time before his parents got worried or noticed anything.
“Hey,” he hears her move around from the living room and set down a cup. “How was school today?”
Taking out an earbud he answers, “It was okay, I did some extra work in the library today so that’s good.” He got stuck staying with Weasel at the bar because of a sudden influx of people coming in. Thankfully the paper was for his physics class so it didn’t take him much time and was able to take some time to search for the gang in SoHo that were selling something suspicious.
“But hey, there’s this crazy car parked outside-” he cuts himself off as he turns to the living room expecting to see her but sees her with ‘TONY STARK!’ he screams internally, thankfully not out loud, when he fully comprehends whos next to her on their couch. As they move around to look at him he looks at May and sees a secretive smile on her face and a raised brow as Tony is holding some meatloaf that May made the other night. ‘Oh no.’
“Hello Mr. Parker.”
“Um.” ‘Nice going idiot. I’m either killing Harley or myself. Why the fuck is he here? Did he find out I’m Spider-Man? Did he tell May? There’s no way she would be smiling though. This has to be Harley’s fault he was acting shifty and avoiding me today, hopefully the idea that he suddenly hates me can be off the board. Maybe Cindy was right and he was nervous about something, please let it be this and nothing to do with Spider-Man. Wait what if he does know and told Harley and that’s why he was acting different. Ahh you idiot, talk it’s freaking Tony Stark not the time to overthink. Just do what they’ve taught you.’
“W-what, what are you doing. Hey, I’m uh I’m P-Peter.” he stumbles over his words as he walks closer. Great. Jessica is gonna kill him if she finds out. Though it’s not everyday you meet your childhood hero in your own home though. Nothing could prepare him for ever meeting Stark one on one.
“Tony.” Closer he can see that although the blazer might cost more than the couch they’re sitting on he’s wearing it with a shirt he’s pretty sure he saw at one of the stores when he hung out with the others, it has a rabbit? Something at least like that.
“What are you, um what are you doing here?” he asks hopefully not showing any panic. Wearing his mask would be great in times like this but counter productive with the whole secret identity.
“I’ve been meaning to talk to you for some time now. Here, come take a seat.”
Trying to not trip over air and embarrass himself more than he already has he walks over to the red couch Stark gestured towards and faces the two. He can see his aunt opening and closing her mouth, likely as powerless to how easily he’s taken over the conversation.
“In case you haven’t heard Stark Industries have been taking in interns in colleges who show promise that could get a better reach with the help of researching and working at S.I. We look for promising people who push to learn and have a good head on their shoulders. Sadly we’ve fallen short by not looking deeper into one of the most promising of people. Kids.” He takes a sip from a mug he saw in his hand earlier.
“Teenagers such as yourself show some of the worlds most geniuses and have plans on making change. The thing that's now helping them reach that end goal or even education or support is people seeing that they have a gift. In the recent couple years I’ve come to see that with kids such as Harley and Shuri from Wakanda. They’re kids with smarts of their own that have a chance to make an impact because they have some backing. The CEO of SI and I have decided to overcome our shortsightedness and to offer an internship to more than just college students and include high schoolers. Stark Industries specializes in science so we figured why not look into schools that focus on our field. Harley has talked a lot of great things at Midtown compared to his old schools and what would you know, you show up right from the start.
“Valedictorian for three years straight and with a scholarship since middle school too. Not only taking all AP classes but online college classes alongside an internship at a law firm. The principle and your counselor said some great words and what a hard worker you are too. Never any dropped grades from an A alongside tutoring from time to time." Here he takes another break and looks me straight in the eye.
"Although you already have an internship and are pushing yourself with all your challenging classes I came today to ask you if you'll be interested in interning not only at Stark Industry but also possibly being my personal intern. I'm not sure of how much Keener has told you about him working alongside me but he works mostly with mechanic engineering science. Ms. Potts and I already have some projects drafted for you that are specialized just for you with biochemistry and physics. You show promise and talent and we'd love to have you working alongside us."
The apartment is quiet as May and I take in what he said.
'An internship with Stark industry and WITH Tony Stark himself? How-'
"Yeah, yeah that'll be great thanks for reaching out sir! What more can you tell me about what I'll be doing and would I be getting paid? We'd have to talk to Mr. Murdock about my schedule but I'm sure it won't be a problem. When could I start?" the words spill out of my mouth without me noticing and I quickly clamp my mouth shut before I say anything else. I Ignore the small glare from May and see him raising a brow again at me alongside a small smirk.
"Yeah we have lots of grants that would pay you well. I've already told Mrs. Parker all about the future pay you would get regularly and if you were to make something that gets patented then we'll need to talk some more from there. Sound good?"
"Yes sir."
There's a brief moment of silence before it's broken by May speaking up.
"I'm taking another shift tonight so sadly I'm not going with you to see Mr. Murdock but I'm sure you'll be fine without me sweetie."
"Yeah that's fine, I'll do the laundry when I come so don't worry about that. Have a good shift tonight Aunt May," turning to Mr. Stark who is now standing he speaks up "is there anything you think I'll need to bring sir?"
"Nope you'll be starting next week hopefully so you'll be getting you ID then and will get a tour then. Of course if you want Harley could bring you in earlier to get all that done and you could start right away on your first day. Up to you kid." He stops as he opens the apartment door.
Nodding along he picks up his backpack and gives May a quick wave and follows Mr. Stark out the door and closes it behind himself. The short travel down the stairs is a quiet affair even as they step out of the building. Following Mr. Stark he gets in as he opens up the back door and beckons him in. A couple seconds later he joins him on the other side and introduces him to the person behind the wheel.
"Peter Parker this is Happy Hogan the forehead of security he's in charge over who comes into the building and such so make sure to have your ID on hand. If you happen to lose it email the people at the front office and they'll get you a new one buy you'll need to pay for a new one, right Happy?" Stark questions as Mr. Harold reverses out of the parking spot and drives onwards.
"It would cost about five dollars but it would be best if you don't lose it alright. It's West 44th street right?" Harold questions as he takes a left.
"Yes sir," I answer as I turn to look at Stark next to me. "Did you call ahead Mr. Stark?"
"Yup, his coworker answered she said he was busy this morning but will tell him about us coming in around four a bit earlier than you come in." He answers as he pulls out his phone. I nod and notice he's texting a James.
'Rhodes or Barnes. Hmm doubt his friend would be interested in the fact that he's just leaving again. Likely Bucky then.' he thinks as he barely looks at the window to see the reflection. Pulling his phone out in turn at the car returning to silence he finally sends out a message to the group.
WHERES MY SUPERSUIT
So Tony Stark was in my apartment and now I have an internship at Stark Industries.
Sent 3:42 PM
The drive there is silent and they make it there in record time. They wait for Happy to find a parking spot and only he and Stark exit the car. Walking into the building he sees Karen sorting out some papers. She looks up as she hears us step in and gives us both a smile.
"Hello Mr. Stark, Peter. Mr. Murdock is waiting for you in his office." She tilts her head towards Matts office. They walk towards the door and he knocks just before opening the door. Walking in he sees Matt messing around with some papers on his desk.
"Good afternoon Mr. Murdock this is Mr. Stark I'm sure you knew he was coming in today?" he asks as he takes the chair farthest from the door in front of Matt. Stark follows and takes the chair next to him. Matt gives a small smile in response and nods as he holds a hand vaguely out towards where Tony is sitting.
"Pleasure to meet you Mr. Stark, I should've known taking in Peter would have me meet you but yet this is still quite a surprise to have you here." He cringes on the inside at the compliments laid thick. 'I swear if he's gonna embarrass me throughout this I'ma punch out a tooth on Thursday.' He thinks as he gives Matt a glare and glances at Tony next to him. He has an easy smile and sits back after shaking Matt's hand.
"Great to meet you too, and don't worry pretty disappointed in myself for not finding him myself earlier. Hopefully it's not too late." He gives a shrug and a small laugh." But speaking of his internship the only thing we really need to talk about is his hours and days he'll spend with the two of us. Just as a precaution we were planning that he would first have maybe two to three hours for his first week and may add a couple more once he's fully comfortable. According to-"
The hour goes by fast and surprisingly smoothly. The three of them plan out precautions if his grades were to go below a C which would definitely mean somethings wrong and what days he would go to which establishment, nothing much different to what it was usually but now Mondays, Wednesday, and Fridays would be with Stark Industries where he would sometimes work with Stark himself or down at R&D. He sees Mr. Stark out and watches as the two pull out. Luckily it was already an internship day so he didn't need to go back home. Finally pulling out his phone he goes towards his own desk and checks the group chat.
