You know how some stony + baby peter stories have Peter just developing his power over time? Like no spider bite, or hydra or anything else? Yeah, so uh lets just pretend thats the case here.

Peter POV:

As I sat down to the dinner table, I got an idea.

"Hey guys, wanna go around and share christmas memories?" I ask as I serve myself a big helping of pasta.

"Ooh that sounds like fun!" Wanda says, and then Dad and Pops share a look. Wonder what was that about...

"So," I say, and look around at everybody. "Who wants to start?" Immediately Clint's hand shoots up into the air, and Pietro who was sitting next to him tries to lower it back down.

"I got one I got one!" He shouts, as Pietro protests.

"No!" He says while Clint just smirks at him.

"It was one of Pietros' first christmases here, and he was still getting used to the whole decorating-the-tree idea." Clint starts, and Pietro sighs into his hands, hiding his reddening face. "Then early one morning I heard a loud noise, and went out into the living room-" Clint starts to laugh. "-to find-" He's now wheezing, and suddenly Bucky's eyes widen as he seems to remember this story.

"Oh- OH! I remember this!" He exclaims, before laughing. "Okay- okay so basically like me, Clint, and Tony I think came downstairs, and Pietro was all wrapped up in chri-" He couldn't finish his sentence because he'd started to laugh harder.

"We found him cove-" Clint tries again but fails because he started wheezing again, which just made Bucky laugh more. Then Pietro throws his hands in the air.

"I was all wrapped up in christmas lights okay?!" He says and then crosses his arms like a toddler, and I start to laugh before Clint cuts in.

"I got a picture of him too!" He says and pulls out his phone and shows it to everyone. Then after everyone composes themselves, Pietro suddenly stands up and points at Bucky.

"I have a story!" He says and Bucky's eyes go wide again, this time probably with fear.

"Ohhh no no no-" He starts to say but Pietro cuts him off.

"This one happened a few years ago I think, and the only people who know about it are me, Bucky, and Thor." As soon as Thor heard his name he piped up, and when he saw the way Bucky was looking at Pietro, Thor started to look nervous.

"Uhh- I don't think this is a good uhm-" Thor clears his throat. "This isn't a good story to sh-share. Boring really, and really dull." He says and shoves a forkful of spaghetti into his mouth. Pietro's grin just grows.

"Well it will pass time then." He says and Bucky hits his head against the table.

"Fine... just get it over with." He sighs as Pietro clears his throat.

"So it was a week before Christmas, and Bucky was walking through the tower absentmindedly. But little did he know that as soon as he would turn the corner, he would bump into Thor. And little did the both of them know, a certain someone," Pietro, oh so ever discreetly, points at himself. "-had put up mistletoe all around the tower." As soon as those words left his mouth, a very audible gasp was heard from Bruce, who looked over at his boyfriend with a sort of mocking-like shock.

"But oh they couldn't just walk away now could they? Because fortunately for them, I was there too, and I made sure that they didn't get away with not getting away with it." Pietro says smirking, and I cock my head in confusion.

"Uhh... English please?" I ask and he gives me a 'really?" expression, before he sighs. "I made sure they went through with it." He told me blankly.

"Ahhh, gotcha." I said- wait. oh- OH, AHAHAHAHA! I started to laugh, and soon everyone was laughing.

TimeSkip

Around half an hour later, pretty much every story imaginable had been told, and we were all full of pasta. But suddenly, just as everyones about to get up, I see out of the corner of my eye Dad and Pops sharing that look again. Then they look at me, and I give them a confused expression back.

"I have one more story." They both say at the same time, and was it planned or not? I have no idea. But everyone pipes in, all side conversations abruptly stopping.

"So a little over 10 years ago, around the time that Peter's spider powers were starting to manifest, we had been decorating the tree. And when it was time to put the angle up top, Peter had insisted he do it, because he could crawl up onto the ceiling." Dad starts off. "Then, a few hours later we all went to bed." Pops continues, and by now I was hooked. What were they getting at? I hope it's not anything embarrassing.

"Then the next morning, we come into Peter's room to wake him up, and we see that he's snuggling with the angel tree topper." Dad finishes off the story, and everyone 'awwws' while looking at me. I hide my blushing face behind my... sweatshirt. T-This is Harley's sweatshirt... not mine-

"Oh hey!" Sam suddenly pipes up, distracting me from the thought of the awkward conversation I was going to have later. "Me and Buck finished up that tree topper right before dinner. You guys ready to see it?" He asks and everyone nods. "Great! We'll be right back!" He says dragging Bucky by the metal hand, as they both go down the hall. Then they emerge back a few minutes later, holding Pops's shield, but only it's decorated with lights. Bucky walks over to me.

"Would you do the honors?" He asks me, and I take the shield from him. "Only this time make sure not to sleep with it." He whispers in my ear and my face turns red.

I then stand up facing the tree, and walk over towards it. And from there I walk up the wall towards the ceiling.

"God that will never not freak me out." I hear Pops whisper and I chuckle to myself. Then I place the shield on top of the tree, and Carol turns the lights out.

"It's beautiful." Dad says, elbowing Pops. Pops just grins.
