Chapter 4
Cap walked back and sat down in the living room with the rest of the Avengers. They all were silent waiting for him to speak. “ His name is Peter Parker.” This was followed by more silence. “ I think he might have PTSD, he also might have an eating disorder, he’s way too light and skinny. He needs help.” After that everyone seemed to lose there words, then Tony spoke, “ I called his Aunt, I told her that he got an internship here and that I needed him to stay here for a while. I also found out that, he recently lost his uncle that raised him since he was young.”
[ This next part is in Peters nightmare]
I can see Dr. Connors holding Aunt May off the edge of a building. I’m swinging as fast as I can, building to building. I’m gaining speed, but then I get hit by Doc Oct. his claw digging into my side, I start to fall and I can see Dr. Connors drop Aunt May off the side of the Oscorp building. I’m screaming for her, shooting a web as as a last chance to save my only family left. She’s screaming for help, for me, but it’s cut short by the concrete that connects with her head. Then is all goes silent. I black out.
[ Present time ]
Peter wakes up tears streaming down his face, heart rate uncontrollably fast, his senses on overload. Everything hurts, it burns, like fire running through his veins. He’s screaming and grabbing his ears in an attempt to stop the sound from attacking him. He glanced at the clock it read 1:19, after reading it he instantly regrets it, too bright. He lets out another scream of pure pain and holds his hands tighter on his ears. Anxiety and panic overtake him, he can’t breath he takes a hand off of his ear and grabs his chest, more pain takes him. He stumbles out of bed and tries to get to the door. He reaches out for it but starts to fall, just before he hits the ground, he falls into Tony’s arms. He sees Tony reach down past his head and he feels something poke into his neck, then he slips away into bliss.
Tony picks Peter up, one arm under his back the other under his legs. He lifts him up effortlessly, with how light he is, he runs him down the hall almost running into Steve who was also coming to get Peter. Tony passes Peter to Steve and yells at him to get him to medical. Tony tells JARVIS to get Bruce. He feels his own heart rate accelerating, he leans against a nearby wall to calm down.
When Steve took Peter he ran him to the medical wing, he looks down and sees that blood is starting to seep through the kids t-shirt. He pulled his stitches, again. Steve guessed that Tony hit him with a sedative to calm him down, he was screaming when Steve woke up. Bruce was still slightly groggy, it was now 1:22. Cap layed Peter down on the bed once again. Bruce lifted Pete’s shirt and saw that the stitches were indeed pulled and he was badly bruised still. Bruce worked on Peter then set his head down on the bed in exhaustion. “ This kid is going to kill himself if he keeps having panic attacks like this.” Cap looked a Peter, he used his sleeve to wipe away a stray tear like he had done earlier that night. Tony spoke up and scared the living shit out of Bruce and Steve, “ He looked like he was having a sensory overload, grabbing his head and shutting his eyes.” “ I didn’t know you were there, when did you get in here?” Bruce asked curiously. “ I snuck in here when you were working on him.”

Peter heard Bruce, Tony, and Capsicle talking, he tried to open his eyes but that hurt. He let out a small grunt from the bright lights. He licks his lips and manages to get out a “ w-what h-happened?” He opened his eyes squinting to see, they all gave him warm smiles, then Tony said “ You kind of had a panic attack, we woke up to you screaming…” “Oh, I-I’m sorry” Peter turned his head to avoid eye contact, “ It happens sometimes, I didn’t mean to wake you all up.”
