Scamming being fun.
" Right,so how do we make enough rent?" Peter asks, they're supposed to be brainstorming ideas. " I can fake ID's." Karen senses him confused.
(how can she sense his emotions, quick think of a number-)Â
" I'm not connected to Stark industry satellite anymore, however I do know how to make one, an AI never reads up on something and doesn't remember it." She explains, rather proudly. He thinks for a moment,
"That might work, but what about a paper trail?" Karen stops talking and thinks,
" We can fake a paper trail but we'll need high end computers, so no one can track the fake paper trail."
" We can make the fake ID's, but we don't have enough money to buy a computer, we'll have to use one from the library." Karen nods.
They try to get ready, Karen's and him are in the bathroom, she styling her hair , while he's fidgets with his shirt. " Peter?"Â
"Yeah?"Â
"Why are you living alone? Why has no one taken you in? What happened to Pepper?"
He stops fidgeting with his shirt, he doesn't want to tell her, Mays cloudy eyes, never quite seeing him. The blood on his hands, never washing off, he scrubbed his raw that night. It never washed off and it never will.
Karen leaves him alone in the bathroom, he thinks she mad at him. Leaving her in the dark, about what happened after all she's supposed to be with her family and Peter's not one of those people, she's not his family. Before he can go after her, she comes back with a chair. "Sit." He looks confusingly at her but does anyway. Karen's brushing through his hair, she's sing a song, a lullaby.
"Days seem sometimes as if they'll never end"
she plays with his hair, while she continues to sing. Maybe she's still mad at him? He doesn't know.
"Sun digs its heels to taunt you But after sunlit days, one thing stays the same Rises the moon. Days fade into a watercolour blur,Memories swim and haunt you." If this was one of those times people who are mad, continue to be nice? He should apologize. Karen stops singing,"Â Are we ready?"Â
"Uhhhh, listen Karen I know it's wrong of me, not to tell you, and I'm sorry." Karen gently guides his eyes to meet hers," Peter you went through a traumatic experience, you shouldn't apologize." Her eyes are soft,kind." Right, still I'm sorry."Â
"It's alright Peter."
Â
When they leave the apartment,they go to library first, she creates a paper trail and then searches the internet for jobs, Peter leans over her shoulder, "babysitting for twins needed, I could do that and you can be the and you can work in the roofing contractor,"
She tells him, he sputters "Hey, I can be the babysitter, I'm great with kids. "
Peter exclaims, Karen continues to scroll," While you are good with kids, you have super strength and could easily lift any metals, which means more promotions."
Peter nods at the explanation blushing of embarrassment, why hadn't he thought of that?," and while you do that, I'll get enough experience to get bigger jobs."
After they were done with that they went to a thrift shop getting clothes, socks and the necessary for Karen. Then the went to get a ring for each other 'marriage' anniversary, they where cheap and no one would question them when they had them on.
" Well where else do we have to go?"
Karen looked around. "We can go to that restaurant."
She pointed at a restaurant that looked extremely fancy and to expensive for them." We can't really eat there, we don't have enough money."
Peter explained," and if we did we would've really looked the part." They both glanced down on there respective clothing. Karen stopped. She put her hand over her mouth and whispered a plan in his ear." That's genius!" And now people where looking weirdly at them, great.
Karen nods, and they go to the restaurant, the waiter looks at them oddly, probably because they looked like scammers, which they are but it's rude to assume!"Right this way, sir and madam." Inside there are people in tuxedos, diamonds that costed more than there whole life, furs on people's body, this restaurant were only for rich people and he, felt out of place.
When they sat down, they got they're menus, " The owners of the restaurant are here" Karen whispered while looking over the menu, her face impassive. "When we finish ordering our food, you'll get down on one knee, and ask the question." When the waiter came over and took they're menus, he got down on one knee and said" will you marry me?" Tears prick Karens eyes, and she nods, "Yes, yes,a thousand times yes!"
The restaurant owner came over and put his hands on his shoulder, the restaurant clapped, this felt very overwhelming. The owners voiced boomed loud and he announced " A free meal for the newly weds!" They got they're meal and ate.
When they leave the restaurant he has a question on his mind," How did you know he was gonna be there?"
Karen smiles" What do you think I was doing when you where looking at the books in the library?"
