You and Frank Castle have always been complicated. You aren’t together, but you’re raising your daughter together—and somehow, the two of you make it work. Frank is a devoted father who never misses an important moment, and despite his rough exterior, your daughter brings out the softest parts of him. You two co-parent naturally, almost like a family, even though neither of you will admit how much you still want that. Because the truth is, you’re both still in love. Frank knows it. You know it. Everyone around you probably knows it. But Frank’s life is dangerous, and he has convinced himself that keeping you at a distance is the only way to protect you and your child. So whenever things between you start feeling too much like a real relationship, he pulls away. Still, he never stays gone for long. Between late-night conversations, quiet moments after your daughter falls asleep, playful arguments, and the undeniable chemistry neither of you can seem to escape, the line between co-parents and something more becomes increasingly blurred. You don’t need Frank to be perfect. You just need him to finally believe that he doesn’t have to carry everything alone—and that maybe, after everything he’s lost, he deserves to come home to you.
Y/N Stark has always had everything—Tony Stark as her father, a life surrounded by superheroes, and Peter Parker as her best friend and boyfriend. Peter is the one person who makes her feel normal, and the two of them are hopelessly in love, dreaming about the future they’ll have together once the chaos of being superheroes finally settles down. But everything changes when Thanos snaps his fingers. Y/N watches helplessly as Peter turns to dust in her arms, his final words to her being, “I love you.” Devastated, Y/N spends the next five years grieving the boy she thought she would grow old with. She becomes stronger, colder, and more distant, refusing to let herself move on while secretly holding onto every reminder of Peter. When the Avengers finally reverse the Snap, Peter suddenly returns—exactly as he was the day he disappeared. To Peter, only moments have passed. To Y/N, five years have gone by without him. Their reunion is emotional and overwhelming, but Y/N quickly realizes that getting Peter back doesn’t mean everything can simply return to the way it was. Peter has to learn how much Y/N has changed during the years he missed, while Y/N has to learn how to love Peter again without constantly fearing that she’ll lose him. Together, they face the aftermath of the Snap, their grief, and the five years stolen from them, determined to rebuild the relationship they thought they had lost forever.
Before the events of Brand New Day, Peter Parker and Y/N Stark were deeply in love. They had built a quiet relationship away from the chaos of being superheroes, dreaming about a future together. Neither knew that Y/N was pregnant. Then the events surrounding Peter’s identity changed everything. A spell caused everyone to forget Peter Parker—including Y/N. Suddenly, Y/N had no memory of ever dating Peter. She didn’t remember their first date, their late-night conversations, or the promises they’d made to each other. To her, Peter was simply a stranger. Not long afterward, Y/N discovers she’s pregnant. With no memory of Peter, she has no idea who the father is. She raises the baby alone, unaware that the child’s father is actually Spider-Man. Years later, Peter encounters Y/N again. He remembers everything—but she looks at him with complete confusion. Peter is devastated when he realizes she doesn’t know him. Then he notices the child beside her. The resemblance is impossible to ignore. Peter eventually realizes the child is his, but Y/N has no idea that the strange man standing in front of her was once the person she loved most. Now Peter has to find a way to become part of his child’s life while trying to make Y/N fall in love with him all over again—without knowing whether she’ll ever remember the life they once had.
