Chapter Text

"Are you sure this is a good idea?" Peter was very worried to say the least, and also very concerned , a while back he had finally told the X-men about his "family issues" he also opened up about how hard it was to talk to his dad,expecting some sympathy
and pity, but instead they decided they wanted to help him tell his dad that well... He's his dad.
A horrible idea which he had unfortunately agreed on (of course he did) , so after brainstorming ideas and thinking his friends are utterly insane due to how much time they actually spent worrying about his dad they had a plan.
★━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━★
"Am I seriously the only one worried you're all thinking about my dad more than I am?" Peter interjected again, "Pete calm down this is all so we can finally make you stop having daddy issues, it's going to be great we promise!" Jean had interrupted him from her seat before he started rambling again about how anxious he was.
(Which was understandable of course but there's only so many times you can see him pace around a room in a panic speaking to fast for anyone to catch up before you get tired AND worried)
"Yup I agree, it's time you finally got off your ass and did something about this before we have to put you in extensive therapy" said Scott who was agreeing with his girlfriend and while those 2 were having their moment Ororo took the chance to also interrupt, "Yup! ,besides, who doesn't love a good game of telephone while trying to win over your long lost dad" she chuckled at this but Peter was way to busy worrying about how they were going tell his dad he has a son through a game of telephone , which was the stupidest idea ever and sounded exactly like something he would do, well yes let me explain their amazing,unbreakable, indestructible, bulletproof and Peter proof plan!
★━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━★
They decided if they wanted to get the message across they had to be as obvious as possible (why? he had no idea) so they were just going to pass the message (whatever the message is I guess that's up to him) through a game of telephone so they barely had to move a muscle, they actually thought walking up to Erik and saying it was boring and Peter needed to spice things up so with his very basic phrase in mind, on the agreed upon day of "the plan" he had started passing the message to others, first he had said the phrase to Jean through his mind, which Jean understood with a nod (why couldn't she just pass it directly to Erik? cuz that was boring besides spying and doing a cool little plan was way more fun ) Jean had passed the message to Scott who was thoroughly enjoying his break waiting for the signal, scott then passed it on to Kurt who was laying there trying not to look suspicious (which failed miserably) Kurt then quickly teleported to Ororo who was training with raven and a couple other mutants , Ro passed it on to Raven who quickly excused herself for a second to go pass it on to Hank who was busy in his lab , right as she came in she whispered in his ear the message which Hank was a little confused about but nonetheless went to pay Charles a little visit.
★━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━★
Charles who just so happend to be playing chess with Erik at the moment,opened the door to a very awkward Hank who asked to pull Charles aside which he clearly obliged to , Charles was now supposed to pass the message to Erik (Charles still thought this would've been much easier if Peter just had talked to Erik but the boy seemed fine with the plan and the others were very excited about executing it) now the keyword in the phrase before was 'supposed' because as soon as he heard the phrase he wasn't sure if he was to be concerned or to start laughing his ass off, so yeah something definitely went wrong.
★━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━★
When Erik had heard the message he was utterly confused only hearing a simple " Just in case you need it Peter's in his room" by Charles.
That's why he found himself very anxiously going up to Peters room, he knocked on the door waiting for a response from the boy inside. Slightly surprised when he actually answered "oh hey man I- uhm what are doing here?" Peter said that with a small very awkward smile, "Peter it's okay I already know, you don't have it to hide it anymore" Erik said that in a manner that almost made Peters heart jump out "Oh I- I'm sorry I know you probably didn't want any of this" He was waiting to tell his father for the longest time and now this was it. There was no way he would accept him, he was a dropout and got his leg snapped like a twig by apocalypse "No I'm very proud of you, this is a very hard thing fatherhood, especially for someone your age" ... now wait a second...ty, did he just say fatherhood is difficult for HIS age? "I- what excuse me? " Peter didn't know if he wanted to laugh or cry "did you say fatherhood is difficult for people my age?" he was sure he sounded a little bit offended even if he didn't mean it, "yes of course It's a very hard thing for someone my age I imagine it's even harder at yours, am I wrong?" fuck… "Yes yes it is, now would mind giving me some space please?" now Erik looked nervous at that surprisingly and excused himself "yes of course sorry"
He wanted a father figure, preferably his own father but he isn't picky at this point what he didn't want was to be a father himself, not so early at least.
Man he was so done with everything "hey Erik wait" he called put just before the man could leave, "yes?" "Well uhm who told you this- piece of information again?" he knew it was probably Charles but he didn't want come to that conclusion THAT quick,for all he knows he could've gotten that 'knowledge' from anyone as a silly prank "Charles."
Ok now he was going to kill Charles
"please don't actually"
