Promise

Summary: It's Erik's turn to take care of young Peter, but he's out on a business trip. Again. Warnings and whatnots: Kid!Peter. Dadneto. Not following original story. Eric is practically a diplomat. Charles and Raven being Peter’s unofficial guardians .

Charles stands uncomfortably in front of his best friend's ex's house. He already rung the doorbell, he could sense the disheveled woman nearing the door. He puts on an awkward smile as the door opens.

"Charles," She says, staring at the young man in front of her. "Erik's not here?" She asks, but before Charles could answer a small gust of wind came running up.

"Papa!" The voice says loudly, excitement and happiness practically bursting from the young silver haired boy. His demeanor immediately changed as he saw his father's best friend standing in front of the doorway. "Where's papa?"

Charles kneels down, facing the young boy who was hiding behind his mother's leg. "You're father is on a business trip right now... He'll be back in two days, so in that time your father asks your Aunt Raven and Uncle Charles to take care of you!" Charles says, smiling softly at the young boy. The boy mumbles an okay before letting go of his mother's pant leg and taking the hand of his father's best friend.

Erik hated his job. No, he despised it.

Ever since he got this bloody job, he had missed most if not all his time with Peter. This time it was no different. He was supposed to be in America, with Peter. Taking care of his only child and son. His only family. Yet here he was, in France in a dull meeting with some businessman.

The meeting was adjourned and he quickly gathered up his things and left the room. Not caring to speak nor network with the other people in the room. His grip on his briefcase tightens as he sees his boss' assistant leaning against the doorway. He approaches the woman, his face showing no emotion. She smiles at him.

"You will be very happy to hear what I have to say."

Peter laid down on his bed, staring up at the ceiling. The door to his room opens and he sits up. A blonde woman stands in his doorway, a sympathetic smile etched on her face.

"Do you want to eat something, kid?"

Peter didn't respond, just shaking his head. Raven walks towards Peter, sitting down on the edge of his bed. "It'll be fine. In two days he'll be back."

"He's never here when I come here..." Peter mumbles. His eyes staring into Raven's. Her heart practically broke in half as she saw the broken look on the young boy's face. "Come here," She mutters to him, wrapping her arms around him. Peter sobs.

Raven knew that Erik wanted to see Peter but his work wouldn't allow it. She wished for once, that Erik could just come and comfort Peter.

~

Erik walks off the plane, a small smile on his face. Internally, he was bursting with happiness. His boss had let him go early. He could see Peter today. He could see his son today!

He walks over to his best friend who was standing near his car. He had called him the night before telling him about the news. He had planned out a whole day with Peter with Charles the night before. He hugged his best friend, smiling softly.

"Everything is running smoothly," Charles says, pulling back. Erik smiles. "Let's go. We should not be late."

~

Peter sits quietly in the passenger seat of Raven's car. "Where are we going, Auntie Raven?" He asks. Raven smiles, putting a finger to her lips.

"It's a secret." She smiles.

She pulls her car into the parking lot of a local diner. She leads a confused Peter into it, smiling to everyone in the diner.

"Hey speedy!" A familiar voice calls out to Peter, he looks up immediately catching the eye of his father. Peters mouth hung open before he ran up to the man. Erik sits shocked at the booth he was sitting at. He looks at Charles incredulously, before wrapping his arms about the young boy. He lifts up the young boy, seating him next to him.

Peter's lips quiver as he stares at Erik. He thought that Erik was going to not come home. He thought he wouldn't see him again.

"Hey, hey, hey, why are you crying?" Erik asks, wiping the tears off his son's face.

"I thought you would never come... I thought you left me..." Peter mumbles into Erik's shirt. Erik stares down at Peter, his lips pursed as he looks at Charles. His eyes were tearing up.

Peter thought he would've left him. Peter thought he had abandoned him.

"I would never do that son. I would never leave you," Erik says, kissing the young boy's forehead.

"Promise?"

"Promise."

memento mori

Dadneto Headcanons because they deserved better

Writers note: Yall it’s dadneto because i don’t understand why they couldn’t just let them be happy- ERIK WOULDVE DROPPED EVERYTHING FOR HIS SON IN APOCALYPSE I JUST KNOW IT-

When Lorna comes around and tells Erik he’s her dad. He’s ecstatic and was amazing.

Peak dad man

Legit made so many dad jokes this man- I KNOW HE WOULD MAKE DAD JOKES LOOK AT HIM-

Peter may or may not be jealous…

Lorna is confused on why Peter is jealous.

She can definitely sense tension.

She ends up threatening Peter to get the info out.

She laughs so loudly when Peter confessed

Tries to help but then learns of the obliviousness of her father.

Erik is a very smart man, but he uses his heart instead of his head.

So his heart is telling him: nahhh he’s not my son.

Lorna and Peter are the chaos combo that make Erik STRESSED.

Look even if he weren’t their actual father he might as well be because he’s the one who had to try and reign them in.

Lorna and Peter ‘jokingly’ give him gifts on Father’s Day

Erik ‘jokingly’ uses his Number 1 Dad cup everyday. 

Peter and Lorna ‘jokingly’ have his number saved as ‘Father’

Erik ‘jokingly’ has their number saved as chaos child 1 and chaos child 2

If Wanda is in the picture the Chaos Combo is complete. 

Erik: I didn’t understand why people care so much for their dumb children until I got dumb children myself. I’ve only known them for a few days but if anything happens to them i’d kill everyone in this room and then myself.

so marvel’s just released deleted NWH footage with matt murdock but still won’t release the wandavision deleted scene that has Fietro/Peter/Ralph in it.
