Summary
Peter, all things considered, was a very, very nice boy. He helped kittens out of trees and old ladies across the street, he never raised his voice at May and always did his chores, he never misbehaved at school and (almost) always got his homework in on time. But, agreeable to many's belief that no one could be as nice as Peter was, not even Peter himself, he was constantly about an inch and a half from strangling Flash half to death and punching a hole in the skull of every mugger he fought. Every forced smile, every held back attack was a chip on Peter's shoulder, whittling him down until he would finally crack. Today was that day.
Peter Parker has spent his whole life pushing down his anger for the sake of other's, even as it killed him inside not to punch Flash in the face a little every now and then. He was going to snap one way or another, but Peter hadn't exactly expected it to have built up that much, nor did he expect Tony to have picked up another genius kid, especially one that did such a good job of quelling all the emotions tingling uncomfortably beneath his skin.
