Chapter 16
"You must be Miss Romanoff." A woman with an English accent said behind me.
"Yes ma'am" I said as I turned towards her.
"Everyone, I'd like you to meet Natasha Romanoff, she'll be joining us this semester." She said calling out everyone's attention.
"Please take your seat next to Miss Lewis over there, since you've apparently know her."
I walked to the seat next to her and plopped my bag under my seat. I was glad that I get to sit next to her out of everyone in this room.
"Okay, so today we will watch a documentary on World War II and after that I'll let you write an essay about your reflections on what you learned." She paused to think.
"It's okay to sleep as long as you pass this but no phones allowed. The essay will be passed this wednesday. Is that alright with you guys?"
A short yes was the reply of the whole class. Ms. Carter set up the pojector on the back of the classroom, and told one of the students to turn off the lights. She started the video and from what I saw it was an hour long.
Darcy of course chose to sleep, but I managed to stay awake to take small notes incase I forget. Ms. Carter was roaming around the room, checking each student if one of them was using their phones.
I think one of the students were caught, I think her name was Agnes? No, Agatha. Poor girl had to get it back from Fury's office later after class.
----------
An hour of watching was finally over, and it's now lunch. I woke Darcy up to see a little drool on the edge of her lip.
"Is it lunch now?" She groggily asked.
"Yep, now wake up."
"Who are you meeting up with?" She asked as we were walking out the room.
"Yelena, Wanda and Pepper I guess, wanna come with?" I asked her.
"Oh sure" She happily agrees.
We walked to the cafeteria, and as I was about to open the door someone suddenly locked me in a weak chokehold.
I kicked my left leg behind me enough to make them lose balance, I quickly grab their hand and flipped them, the next thing I know Yelena was on the floor.
"Why is it always me on the floor?" She moaned.
"Next time don't sneak up on me, I thought you already learned your lesson?" I laughed as I help her up.
"Why can't you be like normal people, who just yell or even just try to act scared?" She complained.
"Come on, Wanda and Pepper must be waiting inside." I rolled my eyes.
"Lewis." Yelena said looking at Darcy.
"Blondie, nice seeing you and the floor being friends." Darcy snickered.
"Yelena be nice, I asked her to join us." I jokingly scold her.
"Wha- I didn't even do anything!" She grumbled.
"Come on, that's the hunger talking маленький" (little one) I laughed.
"Клянусь, в следующей жизни ты мама"(I swear you are a mom in your next life). Yelena grumbled again.
"I swear I can't understand a thing both of you just said." Darcy called out.
"Come on Yelena, I can already here your stomach from here." I teased.
"Yeah, you're right about that one." Darcy laughed making Yelena glare at her.
"Shut up Lewis." Yelena huffed.
-------------
We saw the table where Wanda and Pepper were sitting and made our way towards them. I saw Wanda looking at the other direction, so I took my phone out and text her to look the opposite way.
She felt the buzz and checked the message, she looked confused and look around the whole cafeteria until she spotted us.
We headed to the table, and took our seats. I sat next to Wanda while Yelena sat next to Pepper who already bought her lunch, Darcy sat next to me since she and Yelena are constantly at eachothers throats, I don't know why.
I turned to Wanda. "Malysh?"
I heard Yelena snicker.
"Hm?" She hummed as she looked at me.
"Wanna head to the line and get lunch?"
"Sure." She said as we stood up.
"Hey Nat, can you by mine?" Yelena said handing me her lunch money.
"Really? You buy it yourself ленивый"(lazybones) I said shaking my head.
"PLEAAAAASE!" She pouted.
"Fine, but you owe me." Taking her money from her hands.
"How about you Darcy?"
"Oh it's fine, I don't really eat lunch."
Wanda and I left the table and got our trays, when I heard Yelena on the other side of the room.
"Oh and don't forget the sprite!" She yelled.
I looked at her with disappointment, she just shrugged her shoulders and went back to talking with Pepper and Darcy. No one minded her since the whole cafeteria was loud enough that no one even bother to look at Yelena.
"Milacik?" Wanda called me.
"Malysh?"
"We didn't get to finish the twenty questions game you said."
"How bout later when class is over, I'll come to your dorm and we can finish it?"
"Are you gonna sleep over?"
"I don't think so."
"How about on wednesday, us four will have a sleepover?"
"Whose dorm are we gonna use?"
"We'll plan this later with the others when we get back."
"What about Darcy?"
"We'll just ask her later." She shrugged.
We bought our lunches and Yelena's as well. God, this girl is addicted to sprite, I feel concerned for her poor kidneys. We headed back with our trays and sat down on out general spot.
"So Wanda has an idea." I started.
"Do you guys want to have a sleepover this wednesday?" She asked
"Yeah sure." Yelena and Pepper said.
"Whose dorm are we using?" Pepper asked.
"Mine and Yelena's" I said.
"Don't I have a say in this?" Yelena said.
"Well what do you say?" Wanda laughed.
"Yeah It's fine." She laughed.
"I'm this close to smacking you Yelena. This close." I said gesturing a pinch on my hands.
"Anyways, What about you Darcy, wanna come?" Pepper asked.
"I can't, I visit my girlfriend every wednesday." She excused.
"Maybe next time then." Pepper smiled.
We finished our lunches, and went on our seperate classes. Wanda went with Pepper to Banners Class, and Me, Yelena and Darcy had PE.
---------------
We headed to the gym, once we arrived we saw Mr. Rogers technically destroying a punching bag, which made me a bit scared of him.
"You must be the new student." He pointed at me.
"Yes, I'm Natasha Romanoff sir." I went stiff.
"Jeez, no need to be scared kid." He chuckled.
"Okay everyone, how about we change in our PE uniforms." He spoke again.
We headed to the locker room to change, Yelena handed me a spare uniform since the admin didn't really gave me anything except for the official uniform.
The uniform was a white shirt with blue sleeves and blue basketball shorts. All of us change into our uniforms and let me tell you it was awkward changing in a locker room full of girls. I mean I don't mind it that much but I'd rather let some things unseen.
Us three headed outside to see the others gathering to listen at Mr. Rogers' instructions.
"Okay I want everyone to start stretching because we are going to run a few laps, and tomorrow I'll teach you about team building skills." He smiled
"The only lap I'll be running is my girlfriends." Darcy joked only enough for us three to hear.
Yelena and I snickered trying not to laugh and get caught, knowing Darcy and how bold she can be at side comments, she surely knows how to make us laugh without even trying.
We started our stretches starting from our arms, to our waist and lastly our legs. I don't know how many laps will it be, I just know I don't want to be tired on the last subject.
"Okay class gather round. We'll be going to the track field, so please no noise and make sure to bring your own water." Mr. Rogers
We grabbed our bottles as he led us to this huge field. There were three bleacher next to each other, on the other side was a tennis, basketball and volleyball court.
"We are going to run five laps to help our endurance, but if you can't handle that you can do three." He said.
We all started running including Mr. Rogers, all of us were still on our second lap but he's already passed us four times.
What I found funny about him is his american flag shorts, I swear if this was a hero movie he would be captain america.
I laughed at that thought as I looked beside me to see Yelena and Darcy out of breath.
The looked they gave me when they saw me, they were clearly confused onto how I managed to not lose my lungs from all the running but still manage to laugh.
I fully handled myself to finish five laps without breaking a sweat, I already stopped to get water and watch Yelena and Darcy finish their laps.
"Okay first off, how the hell did you manage that without your lungs drying out." Darcy spoke in out of breath as they were aproaching me.
"Karate practice." I shrugged.
"Hand me the water bottle please." Yelena said still trying to catch her breath.
I handed them both of their bottles as we made our way back to the locker rooms to shower. I managed to avoid looking at anyone who's anyone, and changed back to my regular uniform.
"What's your next class miss "I don't have lungs"? Darcy laughed.
"Social Studies." I chuckled at the nickname she called me.
"We practically have the same schedule."
"It's not fair, Nat and I have only one class together and I don't even get to sit next to her." Yelena complained.
"You have me as your roommate dumbass." I laughed.
"Still! How am I going to ask for answers now." She huffed.
"How would you know if I will gjve answers." I chuckled.
"You're no fair." She said crossing her arms.
--------------
Darcy and I headed to Strange's class feeling tired from all that running, leaving Yelena complaing the she was going to Ms. Carters class alone.
We met up with Wanda on the way in, we all took our seats next together since Darcy said quote-unquote "There's no designated seats in this class."
Apparently Mr. Strange's full name is Stephen Strange, I still find his last name really strange, haha get it "strange" no? Ok.
Strange's class was ok I guess, he taught us more on the knowledge and values side of class rather than current affairs and controversial issues, which I don't have anything wrong with it.
I glanced at Wanda, she was trying so hard to focus that she was silently biting her nail and tapping her foot on the floor.
Then I glanced at Darcy, whe was leaning on her hand, and at every second an evident yawn appears.
I swear this girl is alway's tired, she literally fell asleep during Ms. Carter's class, yet every witty comment she has said makes me question if she was really asleep or not.
-------
And finally the last bell rang, all of us stood up and gather all out notes, pens and books just to shove it in our bags.
"Wands, do you know where the lockers are?" I looked at her.
"Yeah, I was about to go there, why?"
"Can I come?"
"You know I don't mind going with you" She smiled.
"Hey Darcy, wanna come with us?" I asked.
"No thanks, I'm just gonna head up to my dorm and wait for dinner."
"Sure, you know where we sit right?"
"Yep, I'll meet you guys there." She said walking away.
I looked to see if anyone was around then back at Wanda. "Well darling, shall we?"
"We shall." She laughed.
As we arrived at our lockers, I forgot they didn't really mention what locker number is mine.
"Uhm malysh...?"
"Did Margaret forgot to mention your locker number?"
"Wha- how did you know?"
"Really Nat?" She laughed, of course it was obvious they did.
"It's on your schedule card at bottom right." She pointed out.
She opened her lokcker and started putting her bag in while I took out the card out of my bag, thank god I didn't leave it. I scanned the card and found my number was F21 next to it was the lock combination.
"So, did you find it?" Wanda said peeking over my shoulder.
"Yeah, Its F21."
"Well we've already passed it, because mine is M27."
"Let's go then." I said grabbing her hand and holding my card on the other.
It took a few minutes to find my locker but we eventually found it. I entered the combination and managed to open it, I left my bag in there leaving just my phone, keys and wallet in my hand.
"Wanna head back now?" I said locking my locker.
"Sure and maybe we can finish that game you said." She smiled.
"Oh I planned on finishing it." I said holding her hand.
