Chapter 92

Real?" Valeri asked in disbelief, she looked at me with questioning eyes and I raised an eyebrow in challenging. Not just some shit from the streets now was I?

"Why yes," Norman nodded, "now Valeri, I believe we have some business to discuss. Harry, why don't you, Peter and Felicia go and occupy yourselves? I'm sure this won't interest you," he ended with a back handed insult.

"Yes father," Harry nodded, I raised an eyebrow, wow, he certainly took that like a little bitch. Push over much?

Felicia took me and Harry to her room where I proceeded to glare at Harry, trying to burn a hole into his back. The boy gulped, we didn't talk much, I wasn't in the mood and neither was Felicia, guess she also thought he was a jerk.

We spent the time just making polite conversation, not talking about sensitive subjects like MJ or how he was a giant tool.

Soon Valeri and Norman were done with their talks and we joined them for dinner. It was decent enough event, I'll admit, Norman Osborn does make for some pretty good conversation. He's the most selfish man I have ever met, true, but I kind of understood why. He did so many great things in his life, and he fought tooth and nail for it, it was his right to be proud of his work.

And I also understood why he disliked Harry, if I had a son who was such a pain I would be pissed at him too.

"So Peter, what's the next big thing the Baxter Building is working on?" Norman asked.

"Right now? Nothing too revolutionary," I shrugged, "we just got the patent for a machine which would serve as a digital file folder, kind of like an advanced version of Kindle. We sold the production right's to Amazon, we're expecting them to start production in what...five months? Maybe more?"

"Ah, I see, that's good, set up a steady stream of money, very smart," Norman nodded.

"Yes, Sue's the one who handles all the cash," I shrugged, "she's pretty amazing actually, if we didn't have her with us the Baxter Foundation would be gone in a week."

"Ah yes, I know of Sue Storm, she's very...impressive," was that lust I hear in your voice Norman? Wow, Norman Osborn had a thing for a woman who could be his daughter, how utterly surprising. Not.

Norman continued, "but Peter, I was looking over a few of the patent's the Baxter Building owns, and I came across something really revolutionary," he locked eyes with me, "tell me, do you know about Parker Blood?"

I shouldn't be surprised, so I wasn't. I knew I can't act sheepish and shy, he would hate weakness and looking weak in front of Norman Osborn was a big mistake. So I smile and nodded, "know it? I invented it."

"You did?" Harry blinked.

"Yeah, why? Did you think someone else named their invention 'Parker'?" I scoffed. Valeri looked taken back and Harry looked pissed off. Felicia looked curious, which was to be expected, I don't talk to her about things like this.

"I expected as much," Norman smiled, "I looked over the patent, ingenious really. Tell me, have you decided how you're going to go about marketing it?"

"Honestly no, making the plans is Sue's department, the rest of us just give her the toys and give her our opinion," I shrugged.

"Ah, so she's who I must talk too," Norman nodded, "it's honestly very interesting, the way you can transfer so much of power with nearly no loose, truey a mark on your record to be proud off. Honestly Peter, I don't understand why you're still in school, your skills can be put to use at work."

I shrugged, "I know, but I'm also not looking forward to that. I'm a kid Mr. Osborn, I know that. Some people would want to rush through life but...well, I can't do that. I want to live life before I have to work. There have been so many genius who went down that path and came out not knowing how to be human, valuing their own intelligence than actual people. So...I guess I just don't want to be an emotionless machine."

Norman nodded, "that is very well thought out and mature of you Peter," he glared at Harry, "if only other children your age act the same."

I won't' lie, there's a part of me loves the fact Harry was being compared to me and looked down at, it is a part of me I hate, but it is a part of me. So I just nodded and said nothing.

"Well, this has certainly been an….informative dinner," Valeri said looking at me in a new light.

"Yes, it has," Norman looked at his watch, "oh dear, it's gotten very late. We have to leave," he stood up, "Valeri, it was a pleasure, you were an excellent host."

"Thank you Norman," we all stood up and walked to the door. Valeri opened the door, "I hope you keep in mind what we discussed."

"Thank you, I will," Norman nodded and turned to me, "it was an unexpected surprise to see you Peter. I'll be in touch with the Baxter Foundation in regards to your invention, I'm sure Otto will find it interesting to look over."

I nodded, "I'll look forward to that."

The Osborn's left, Valeri closed the door and turned to me. She narrowed her eyes and me and then Felicia. She didn't say anything before sighing, "it's was nice getting to know you Peter. I hope to see you more, Felicia, say your goodbyes, I'm sure Peter's work is curious where he was."

"Yes mother," Felicia hissed, but Valeri ignored her and went into the kitchen. My girlfriend turned to me and smiled, "the way you stood up to my mom was such a turn on."

I grinned, "you're welcome. I won't lie, that felt good. I get what you say, she is a pain sometimes."

"Now you know," she smiled. She pressed a soft kiss on my lips, I wrapped my arms around her and hugged her deeply. She whispered, "knock on my window in one hour's time. You still owe me a steamy foreplay session."

I bit down on her neck and whispered, "I know. And you owe me too, Kitten," I purred into her ear before breaking the hug and left. I came back soon later and needless to say, we had a very enjoyable evening.
