Peter had been spending all his spare time when he wasn't on patrol or at school studying for the decathlon regionals. If Midtown won this they were going to the Championship. The meet was this coming weekend so he wanted to make sure he was prepared. Peter even started studying at lunch much to the pleasure of MJ. He hadn't missed a single practice much to the annoyance of Flash. After practice Peter began to walk home before stopping and seeing an bright orange Audi parked just outside the school grounds.

Tony rolled down the window and smiled at peter "Hey kiddo hop in"

"Hey Mr. Stark i didn't think today was a lab day?" peter asked as he got into the passenger seat.

"It wasn't originally but i called May she told me about your Decathlon Meet next weekend that you've been studying like crazy, she thought you needed a break" tony said pulling off his sunglasses

"oh well i just want to make sure were prepared if we win this we go to the championship" peter said

"Pete you're the smartest kid i know but don't tire yourself out" tony said as he pulled away from the curb " you need to relax a bit"

Peter smiled at tony at the compliment " i just don't want to let the team down" peter said honestly

"Pete you could never anyone down but how about this once we get to the compound ill help you study for a bit but then we have a movie night to relax, sound good?" tony asked with a smile

"Sounds great thanks tony" peter said smiling

"No problem kiddo" tony said as returned his attention to the road.

When the got to the compound they went to the Common room and tony used peter's notes to quiz peter for about half an hour then told him to take his backpack to his room and decide on a movie by the time he got back. Tony went to the kitchen to make popcorn and grab drinks.

Peter walked back into the common room. "Friday play Moana"

"right away Peter" the AI replied. The screen lit up and peter curled into the couch.

Tony walked into the room and smiled "of course Disney you're so predictable kid" tony said as he placed the popcorn on the table and sat next to him.

About half way through the movie tony glanced over at peter. He looked like he was close to nodding off on Tony's chest. Tony ran his hand through peter's curls lazily trying to lull peter to sleep.

"Thanks for today, Dad" peter said sleepily into his chest making tony freeze in his place.

Did he hear the kid right does he think of him as a father figure?

He didn't want to wake him so all he responded "No problem Pete" before beginning to nod off as well.

The Decathlon Regionals finally arrived. Peter was a bundle of nerves while he was on stage with the rest of his team. He looked out into the crowd and smiled at his Aunt who managed to get off for the meet. She waved at him but them she saw his aunt turn to greet someone. His eyes bulged when he saw Tony Stark walk over and sit next to May. Tony was in his standard suit and sunglasses. . He took off his shades and waved at peter. Peter smiled and waved back. Peter couldn't believe Mr. Stark came to his decathlon meet he probably had so many more things he should be doing but he was there, ready to cheer him on, like a dad would. Peter knew nothing would stop him now. As all his nerves left his body and the first question was asked.
