The Liar and the Lighter- Gabrielle aplin (you me at six cover)

Tony stark hadn't lived before he met Peter Parker.

His life had been one moment and then the next, time had passed him in his world of numbers and inventions he had been frozen- like a capsicle - and years had passed him and one day and he had been a machine and like a machine he knew he had a date where he would be shut down (please, please let it be today) he had woken up in Afghanistan, blood dripping down his face and pain in his chest. He had become Iron man and for a while that had been enough...it should have been enough.

But it wasn't. It never had been and as mission's became more dangerous he threw himself further in - his life was of little consequence. But on the outside he was as he had alway's been Tony Stark, Genius-Billionaire-Playboy-Philanthropist (And wasn't that a mouthful) and he had everyone fooled and so what if he slipped and drank a bit too much to try and feel something anything when no one else could relate had never been able to relate even his own Father (Please Daddy hear me please look at me)

And along came a Spider.

Peter had a nice body was the first thing his outer-self had noticed, perfectly curved ass, long legs and really if the kid didn't want him to admire his body he shouldn't of worn spandex. His face, once he removed his mask, was pretty enough- he was adorable and Tony Stark knew at the least this Kid would be a good one night stand so he had flirted and something inside of him had preened at making the kid blush.

And then Peter saw right through him

The little boy- and doesn't that make him feel like a peodophile- had seen through what so many had missed. What his Father had missed, his Mother (Please Mummy i love you, please) Obidiah (Wasn't i enough for you Obi'- why you?) Pepper, Rhodey, Sheild, The Avengers...the Slim, Spandex-wearing teenager understood what so many didn't, the lonliness of the human mind.

And then he had really looked at Peter. He was brilliant- there was no denying it, the brunette had a mind the size of the blush that ran up his cheeks because really developing an 'Anti-Venom' in twenty minutes with no preperation was prodigy level at the very least. He was pretty as well with wide baby deer eye's and long eyelashes, soft pink lips and again that delicous blush and his skin though not too dark was hardly pale with a healthy glow.

When he was Peter's age he had tried to commit suicide, it wasn't generally known to well anyone, his Father had it covered up spectacularly then had told him not to do it again and walked away. His little rabbit had the same look in his eye, a look he recognised and months later when they had been curled up together, Peter's long naked legs around him he would confront him.

But then then he had known Peter was his alway's his. And he knew that Peter hadn't understood himself only expecting a quick fuck and Tony wanted that thought out of his rabbits mind just like he wanted MJ out of his mind and he wanted Clint away from his Peter rabbit His, His, HIS!

And now they were engaged.

He had panicked briefly, realising they had gotten serious and he and Peter had seperated but he knew and Peter had better have damn known that it was only so he could run the equations in his head. He had made a ring-made it from the scraps of his arc reactor and the sapphire from his Mother's wedding ring a ruby from one of her Necklaces and placed them in, engraved into the middle i'll love you forever my little spider and had arranged for Peter to meet him at a resteraunt that he had booked out for just him and Peter a band playing the way you look tonight and Peter had rolled his eye's at the dramatics but sat with Tony who had kissed his hand and they had eaten and laughed and kissed and then he had grabbed Peter's hand again, held it as he knelt in front of Peter, ring in hand.

Peter had stared, eye's wider than usual in amazement and Tony smiled and kissed the back of his hand looking up into those endless eye's

"I told you i could learn to love you...and as usual i've excelled in what i've learnt. And you're my constant, my world- you're the answer to all my equations Peter Parker...Marry me?" Tony had murmered and the then seventeen year old had blinked and stared speechless at the ring before Tony found himself tackled into a hug, Peter's tiny hips pressed into him as his lips whispered yes.

"Don't leave me again." Peter had whispered brokenly as Tony placed the ring on his finger as they stood sharing a tender kiss. It broke Tony's heart as he studied his Peter rabbit to see the bags under his eye's, slight sickness to his skin and Tony held him tight and kissed him gripping his fiance

"Never again." Tony whispered and Peter had breathed out before giggling (so much for Spiderman)

"Never ever- ever again." Peter agreed

But he was gone now...gone away, Venom had stolen him away and the darkness was consuming him once more as he looked around his and Peter's apartment covered in drops of blood, glass shattered on the floor and he had ran through the apartment looking for his Peter, his Peter and then he had phoned his Rabbit's phone and it had rung out in the house and he had found it nearly smashed a tell tale small piece of black symbiote filling the crack and as his heart broke he pulled out his card

"Avengers Assemble."

Tony stark hadn't lived before he met Peter Parker. And now he couldn't live without him.
