Oui Oui Baguette Hoomans! Issa meee! Back with another chapter! Now before you guys start reading, this is a more serious chap requested by @AnChowdhury who also helped me with the plot so tysm. I'm not really good with seriousness, considering I make jokes or sarcastic remarks at anything remotely serious.

⚠️TW⚠️ Mentions of Rape, Slight flashbacks but not very detailed, and panic attacks. If any of this triggers you, then pls don't read this. I don't want anyone getting hurt because of my dumb oneshots. This will be fluffy at the end tho. On with the story!

Peter- 16
Harley- 14
Morgan- 8
Third Person POV

"Don't worry Peter, I've got you." A man said, smirking at the teen. "No. Leave me alone." Peter said, trying to get away from the man towering above him. "No, no! Where do you think you're going." The man said, grabbing his arm tightly, pulling him forward. "Stop! Let go of me! Please.." Peter pleaded, trying to loosen the man's grip on his arm. "You're not getting away that easily, Pete." He grinned ominously, moving closer to the scared teenager. "Stop!"

"Peter."

"Peter."

"Peter?"

"Pete!"

Peter jolted up from his bed, sweat dripping down his head.

"Huh? What?" Peter asked, breathing heavily, wiping the sweat from his face.

"Peter, you were having a nightmare. Again." His brother, Harley stated, a look of concern plastered on his face.

"Oh. It was nothing." The adolescent brushed off.

"Come on, man. This has been going on for two weeks! You have to tell me what's going on." Harley pleaded to his older brother.

"I said it was nothing, Harley!" Peter exclaimed, getting out of his bed and going to his bathroom. "Go get ready. We have school." He added before closing the door.

"Fine." Harley said, sighing in defeat.

--------Time Skip--------

"Mom! Dad! Morgan! We're home!" Harley shouted, walking out of the elevator with Peter.

"Hi boys!" Pepper greeted, coming out of the kitchen with Morgan.

"Hey Petey! Hey Harley!" Said child exclaimed, waving excitedly at her brothers.

"Hey Morgs!" Harley said, smiling slightly.

"Hi Morguna." Peter waved.

"Alright. Dinner will be ready soon. I'll call you down." Pepper informed, walking back into the kitchen.

"Okay."

--------Another Time Skip--------
After dinner.

"Hey Peter?" Harley called out, knocking on the door.

"Yea?" Peter looked up from his laptop, motioning for his brother to come in.

"Pete.." He started, sitting on the edge of his brother's bed. "I need to talk to you." He finished.

"Okay.. About what?" The older teen questioned.

"About your nightmares." Harley answered.

At this, Peter's breath hitched, sending him into a flashback.

"Aw come on, Pete. Stop playing so hard to get. You know that won't turn out nice for you." The man said, smirking slightly. "Leave me alone." Peter said, trying his hardest to sound confident, faltering slightly. "Nu-uh. You know how this goes." The awful man stated, pulling the frightened teen towards him, groping him slightly. "AH! Stop it! Let go of me!" Peter cried out, trying to free himself from the perverted man.

Before the flashback could get any worse, Harley snapped him out of it.

"Pete? Come on tell me what happened." Harley begged, concerned for his brother.

"I can't." The distraught teenager stated, tears pricking at the corners of his eyes.

"Why not?" The younger boy asked, a look of worry on his face.

"He said I can't or he'd do it again." Peter replied, tears starting to stream down his face.

A look of shock came over Harley's face as he heard what his brother had told him.

"Who? Tell me, Pete. What happened?" Harley questioned, trying to gain eye contact with his brother.

"I-" Peter stopped, completely breaking down into heart wrenching sobs.

"Oh- Peter don't cry. It's okay. You're safe. I promise." Harley spoke softly, trying to comfort his distressed brother without making any contact, knowing it would freak him out more.

It didn't work.

Peter started hyperventilating, tears still streaming down his pale face quickly.

"Uh- I'll get dad. How's that sound?" Harley tried communicating with the sobbing boy in front of him, only getting a head shake.

"No? Why not? I'm trying to help you man.." Harley all but whined. "Fine. How 'bout this. Count to ten with me. Okay?" He tried, getting a nod from Peter.

"One." Harley started, exaggerating his breath. "Come on Peter. You have to count with me." He said.

"Two." He counted, this time with Peter. Breathing in and out loudly to help the poor, shaking boy.

Once they got to ten, Peter had calmed down enough to be able to breathe again. (Idk how to handle panic attacks that well. I've only done it so many times just over the phone..)

"There. See? Wasn't that hard, right?" Harley asked, still kind of exaggerating his breathing.

Peter nodded slightly, looking down at his bed sheets. "Sorry about that.." He apologized.

"There's nothing to be sorry about, Pete. I just need you to tell me what happened so I can try and help you." Harley stated.

Peter sighed, looking up at his younger brother. "Alright.." He sighed again.

"When I was in on that field trip a few weeks ago I ran into this guy. I wanted nothing to do with him. I only greeted him and kept walking with my friends. Later, I kept feeling like I was being watched, but I didn't know by who or what. That morning, I went on a walk like I did every morning. That's when I saw the man again. He was following me. I tried losing him but ended up walking into an alleyway with no way out. So he cornered me. And.." Peter trailed off, eyes glazing over like he was experiencing it again.

Harley just looked on in disbelief, mouth agape. "Peter.. you should've told someone.." He spoke softly.

"I know- I know. But I was scared! I didn't know what would happen if I did- and I still don't!" Peter rushed out in a panicked tone, flailing his arms around.

"You need to tell mom and dad." Harley said in a hard but gentle tone.

"I know.." Peter looked down again, fidgeting with the drawstrings on his sweatpants. "I'll tell them tomorrow. It's late."

"Okay. You promise?" The younger adolescent questioned.

"I promise." Peter promised.

--------Time skip--------

It was now Saturday. Tony and Pepper were enjoying their coffee in the common room with Morgan still fast asleep in her bedroom. Peter and Harley were still in Peter's room, Harley accidentally falling asleep in the bean bag chair in the corner of the room the previous night. Peter hadn't been able to sleep that night though, just listening to his brother's faint snoring and the cars pass by outside.

Deciding to finally get up, Peter lifted up his covers and walked over to his bathroom, cleaning himself up a bit. After dropping his hair brush like the clumsy boy he is, he accidentally woke his brother up, considering he was pretty light sleeper.

"Sorry, Harls." Peter spoke quietly, picking up the brush and placing it on the counter.

"'s alrigh.." The sleepy boy slurred, rubbing his eyes and stretching.

"Sleep good?" Peter asked, turning off the bathroom light.

"Yea.. you?" He answered.

"Like a log." Peter lied, opening his bedroom door.

Harley stood up following the older boy. "That's good."

Walking into the common area, they were met with their parents watching some show for people in their mid-life crisis.

"Morning boys!" Tony greeted, looking up from the show and placing his coffee down.

"Mornin'" Both boys waved, sitting down on the couch.

After a few minutes of watching whatever it was they were watching, Peter decided to finally speak up and tell his parents what happened.

"Uhm-" He cleared his throat, gaining the attention in the room. "I guess I have something to tell you guys.." He trailed off.

"What is it, kid?" Tony asked, getting concerned at his son's tone of voice and facial expression.

"Uh-" He looked over to Harley who smiled in reasurrence. "Uhm. Well it's about the field trip that I went on a few weeks ago. The reason why I've been like this." He said, looking down, trying to hold back his tears that were already threatening.

He sighed, looking up and seeing the worried expressions on his parents' faces. Taking a deep breath, he continued.

"Well I was having a good time the first three days we were there but then it all started getting bad. There was this man. He was a bit creepy to begin with, but you know, I greet everybody I make eye contact with. So I just said 'hi' and kept walking. The rest of the day, I kept feeling like I was being watched, but I thought I was just being paranoid because I never saw anyone. Then, the next day I went on my morning walk and the man from the day prior was following me. I tried to lose him but it wasn't working and I got stuck in an alleyway that I ended up being cornered in."

By this time, Peter had tears flowing down his face like the night before but this time, he was able to continue.

"And he uhm. He did things to me. He hurt me. He.." Peter looked up slightly, still not being able to make eye contact with anyone in the room. "He raped me." The boy finished, voice cracking along with his somewhat calm demeanor, breaking down again.

He finally looked up, looking at his brother and parents. Their faces showing sorrow with an angered undertone.

"Oh bambino." Pepper said, moving closer to her broken boy trying to comfort him as much as possible.

"Why didn't you tell us sooner, kid?" Tony asked, voice soft.

"I-I'm sorry. I was sc-scared." Peter stuttered through his sobs.

"Petey? Why are you crying?" Morgan asked, walking into the room.

Peter didn't say anything but just pulled his little sister into a hug.

"What's wrong?" Morgan asked, confused as to why Peter was hugging her after two weeks of only accepting high fives from them.

"Nothing. I-I love you, o-okay?" Peter said, tears still flowing down his face.

"I love you too, Petey." Morgan replied, hugging back.

And just like that, Peter was being comforted by his family. But you can best believe Tony was looking for that bastard that hurt his son that next day.
