Tell me a story..
Its been 5 years since the snap happened, meaning its been 5 years since Tony had last seen his son. Tony was broken and no amount of time and no amount of therapy could never help the fact he lost his kid. Pepper lost her kid. Subconsciously he knew everyone in the world lost someone but he couldn't get out of the funk of loosing peter.
Tony was washing the dishes one night when he accidentally sprayed water everywhere. Cleaning it up he picked up the photo of him and peter and wiped the water off the frame and stared at it, eyes starting to fill up with tears.
“Daddy..” a voice broke through the silence of the house causing tony to look
“what are you doing up little miss..” he asked her placing the photo back down on the counter and kneeling to her level. Morgans eyes fixed on the photo that was in Tony's hand previously
“do you miss him daddy” morgan said quietly
tony sighed “I do baby..so much”
“I miss him to” Morgan said latching herself onto her father
Yes, it was true that Morgan never met him. But, she knew all about her brother. Tony and Pepper made sure of it. Every story they could tell will be told or has already been told to her.
“Daddy..will you tell me a story?” Morgan said hopeful
Tony smiled at her as he picked her up and started up the stairs back to her bedroom
“Of course sweetheart” he replied
Once they got into her room Tony tucked her into her bed and handed her, her favorite spider-man build-a-bear.
Morgan got comfortable “Daddy..before you start can I ask one question.”
“sure pumpkin” tony said sitting on the stool next to her bed
“..Do you hope my brother will come back? Is that why we have a room for him?” she held her spider-man bear close to her heart
“..It is.” Tony stated “If..When he comes back I want it to feel like he was never gone”
“I want him back daddy, I didn't get any time with him” Morgan said whimpering
“I know sweetheart, and believe me.. myself and mommy didn't get enough with him and its unfair..and cruel. But, I know he loves you more then anything in this world.” Tony said tucking a strand of her hair behind her ear
Morgans eyes lit up “Really..more then being spider-man!”
Tony chuckled “Yes Mo, even more then being the best superhero”
Morgan smiled “I'm ready for my story”
Tony smiled “Did I ever tell you the one when you’re brother was on patrol when he was supposed to be in school and he ran into Mom”
“NOOOOO!” Morgan laughed
“Well let me tell you she was not happy Mo” Tony smiled as he told the story remembering every detail on how mad pepper was and how 100% scared shit-less peter was.
Tony continued for 5 minutes telling the story when Morgans eyes started to close. Tony smiled and kissed her cheek
“Night Mo I love you”
“I love you 3000” she mumbled
“wow..3000” Tony smiled and closed her door when exiting, only to turn around to find his wife sitting next to Morgans room with her back against the wall.
Tony sighed and kneeled down where she was sitting.
“Pep..” he put his hand on-top of hers.
She lifted her head and tony could see the tears still falling from her puffy eyes
“..We need him back Tony..I..I know Steve, Nat and Scott came to talk to you about it..Please try.” Pepper pleaded to him
“What if we loose this? Tony asked
“Tony..we already lost. What if it works and we never tried.” She wiped her eyes
Tony sat next to her “Pep..”
“what if there's a chance for Peter to be back with us..with his sister. What if she doesn't have to live in a world without him. What if he as here teaching her how to ride a bike and help with homework..and babysit her when we are out and...protect her from bullies and the world..and he was here for dinner every night and we got to watch him grow and graduate and then run the company when we get old..and he can keep giving you heart attacks and me gray hair..and I..I just” pepper paused “..Tony”
“..I figured it out earlier pep..I figured out time travel.” Tony said getting up and holding out his hand to help pepper off the floor
“You, what?” She smiled
“I figured it out..I'm going to talk to Steve and the team tomorrow, Im going to try and get him back baby..I promise” Tony said and pulled his wife into a hug
“Whatever it takes?” Pepper asked
“Whatever it takes” Tony stated
