Well Shit
Peter sat in stunned silence, waiting for his group to join him in the library, he sat there among shelved books, focused on how he was supposed to get his group to not be suspicious that he lived at Avenger's Tower, not only that but he was the son of Tony Stark and Pepper Potts, not biologically of course, but they were his parents, and his dysfunctional family just so happened to include, Captain America, Black Widow, Hawkeye, Captain Marvel, Guardians of the Galaxy, Black Panther, must he go on? No, what sucked was that they were all pranksters, minus Ta'challa thanks god, but since they were visiting, with Shuri being his girlfriend she had access to so many other ways to embarrass him, things she did when they went out together, even when they were home she embarrassed him.
"Peter!" Ella Benoist was here first, she was an excellent student, pretty girl too, with misty gray eyes, and dark brown hair, but she had a crush on him, he had known since second grade, when MJ remarked how odd it was that Ella wouldn't stop staring at him, to which she blushed darkly before running off to go solve a complex puzzle or something, they were arguably the smartest in their class, Peter and Ella was a daily ship, and apparently if they were to get together the two would break the school with their brains.
"Hey Ella, excited for today?" Peter rested his head on his fist, blowing a lock of curly brown hair from his face, he gave her a warm smile, they got together well, they always did, but they weren't anything more than just friends, "So twelve animals in four weeks, think we can do it?"
"Well, I was researching some topics, and I realized if we just stuck to common house-hold insects we could use them for our projects, instead of a photo printed out, others could see the insects in real life, still living and breathing" She replied breathlessly pulling her hair behind her shoulders, giving him a cheeky smile.
He pondered it for a minute, his brain aching from all the thinking he had just used his mind for, running the ideas through and looking back at her, "I think, that would get us an A for sure,"
"Hey Losers," Peter jumped like a foot at the voice behind him, Ella gave her a jealous smile as Mj wrapped her arms around Peter, giving him a hug-ish, "Whatchu guys doing" she enveloped him with the scent of her daily perfume, and he choked slightly as the flowing sleeves of her cardigan rubbed at his ears. "Sorry Pete, Imma try not to suffocate you."
"Great, all we need is-"
"You guys, can't believe we have to got to a dumpster for our work," Flash pretty much yelled out loud, ignoring the annoyed 'SHHHH' of the students trying to read, peacefully, they stopped when the bully gave them all heated glares, "I mean Parker where we gonna sit, on the dirty floor of that alley" Flash had reached them by now and Peter began packing his stuff up, shoving the old textbooks into the depths of his 12th backpack of the 2nd semester, which surprisingly no one questioned.
"Shall we," Peter said calmly, gesturing towards the door, the library was closing soon, and he needed to get to the tower before dark, seeing that Tony tried to murder him when he stayed after to help the janitor. Ella snorted, she turned to walk alongside him, with MJ and Flash bringing up the rear, Flash was complaining about having to go to such a dump when they could just go to his house, his 'very' 'expensive' 'giant' 'mansion' Ella turned to glare at the kid, only turning back to hold open the doors of the school, exiting near entrance 11.
"How long do we have to walk?" MJ asked warmly, the group was standing at a crosswalk, waiting for the red hand to turn into a person, she was shivering, but it didn't surprise Peter, it was mid-October and the sun was dipping low towards the horizon, it was bound to be at least 35 degrees, which wasn't exactly peachy.
"like 10 minutes, It won't be long" Peter replied, it was true, he had stopped getting picked up by Happy when he realized how close the tower was compared to Midtown, besides he could avoid getting mugged because of a certain enhancement, Peter had memorized the way to go, after looking on Google maps during Biology he was able to get to the tower easily, after telling his dad where he would be, how he was getting home.
"It's starting to get dark, we should hurry up," He could see the white mist of Ella's breath as they continued along, Peter could see his own breath, and he brought his coat closer to himself, before realizing how Ella was only wearing her sky blue sweater, he could hear her breath rattling in her chest from the cold, he sighed pulling off the heavy coat, whatever Peter had on a sweatshirt anyway, he passed it to the girl next to her and she blushed furiously.
"Thanks Peter" She sounded concerned for him, to which he waved off, they continued walking, Flash still making rude remarks watched as they drew closer to the famed tower, the high buildings surrounding the four, Peter crossed the final street, heading straight over to the tower when Flash stopped abruptly.
"What are we doing here Parker?" He sounded extremely confused and Peter gave him an exhausted look, he shrugged his shoulders and waved the three into the building, holding the door for them.
"Woah" Ella breathed, she seemed shocked as well, and it was only MJ and Peter who did not look shocked, they were in the clean sparkling lobby of Avenger's tower, Warm air flushed their faces as they passed under the loud vents, Peter walked through, yawning as he stopped by the front desk.
"Hey Gabriella, I got three visitors with me, just some friends from school," Gabriella glanced up from her laptop, she froze, mouth dropped in surprise, she nods vigorously, passing him the badges needed.
He gave her a smile, and walked off to meet up with his group, Ella looked stunned, Flash seemed annoyed and MJ barely even blinked, Peter smiled dropping the small pins in the hands of the kids.
"Shall we?"
They passed through the entrance, watching as the light blinked green before allowing said person in.
"Why are we here Parker?"
"Hmm?" Peter glanced over at Flash who seemed to be lost, he swept his hair back, giving Peter a glare, to which both of the girls countered with their own, Peter smiled thinly, giving them a reassuring gaze.
"I mean, why are we here, you don't live here so why?" Peter rolled his eyes and shoved the Quartet into the private elevator, He scanned his badge and pressed penthouse, the metal box began its ascent, and as they rose the 92 floors Flash kept his silence, Peter could almost feel his excitement at the fact that they were on their way to the AVENGERS PENTHOUSE!
The elevator halted suddenly, causing them to stumble, trying to keep themselves upright. Peter felt the doors open and before he could say anything, or do anything.
"PETER!!" Shuri leaped onto him, legs wrapped around his waist, head buried into the crook of his neck, Peter stumbled back in shock, he, of course, hugged her back, kissing the top of her head before gently lowering the Wakandan Princess onto the floor, Ella cleared her throat, looking hurt she stepped into the penthouse, taking in the surroundings, it took them a moment to realize the Avengers were all sprawled out on the couch, watching Monty Python and The Holy Grail.
"Oh hey Pete" Tony looked up and stopped at the sight of the geeking out company, Ella was trying not to squeal while Flash was already squealing at the sight of his idols watching a movie.
"Well shit."
