Authors Note: This is a one-shot of Pietro and my friends OC- Malia. They are from my unfinished fanfiction, but I couldn't help but to make this one-shot! Enjoy!
Poor Calculations
Malia had never been good at pulling off pranks. Sure, she enjoyed pranks, but she would usually be with Pietro and helping him prank one of the others in Stark Tower.
But when he started pranking her, she decided it was time for payback.
She went to Alice first, and they secretly placed a whoopie cushion in his spot on the couch. They almost pulled it off, but when he sat down and the loud pfft filled the room, Malia couldn't help bursting out in laughter.
His retaliation was to use his super speed to place whoopie cushions on every chair she sat on.
Even when they were out in public.
She went to Tony next, deciding that it'd be best to get him to design a trap for the speedy bastard. He was happy to assist her, of course. Seeing Pietro get caked in pie would be absolutely hilarious.
And it was.
Tony set the trap in Pietro and Malia's room, and after they all got home from a mission Pietro went up to his room and set off the tripwire, and was caked in frosting. Tony had it recorded while Malia and Alice watched, laughing uncontrollably at the dazed man.
"You did this?" He asked Malia.
She couldn't respond with her laughter, and the question remained unanswered for the rest of the night.
The next day he asked her on a date. Malia had been skeptical, since she was almost certain he knew the prank was her idea. But when he took her to her favorite restaurant and not one pie came flying in her face, she came to the conclusion that he thought it was Tony's idea.
Her conclusion turned false when she woke up the next morning with a pie in her face.
"Pietro!" She shouted, and when no answer came, she groaned and threw the pie off her, stomping towards the shower.
Alice wasn't as advanced at creating things as Tony was, Malia knew that, but when the guys decided to go for a drink at the bar she couldn't help but to set up another trap. She sent Wanda out to find the boys and to make sure Pietro came back first, so they wouldn't get caught in the trap on accident.
"Are you sure about this, Mal? He could get hurt, y'know."
"He won't get hurt, Bambi. Trust me."
Alice sighed, finishing the final details to the trap before rushing upstairs so she wouldn't witness the prank unfold.
Malia sat on the couch, proud of her - and Alice's - contraption. A tripwire was set at the entrance of the elevator, and when Pietro trips it a mountain of frosting will fall on top of him. She smirked and leaned back, getting comfotable.
"Hey, monkey."
She shot up, eyes wide as she stared at Pietro coming down the stairs.
"W-wait, but-" she saw Alice at the top of the stairs, shrugging and looking just as confused as she did. "Wha?"
"I skipped out on the bar." He answered simply, plopping down in his seat next to her.
She made a sound in the back of her throat, resting her head on his shoulder instinctively. She felt his arm snake around her side and rest on her hip, a small chuckle emitting from his lips.
"You set a trap, huh?"
"Yep."
They sat in silence and waited, bursting out in laughter when the boys finally returned and walked out of the elevator, getting smothered in frosting.
Note: Bambie is Alice's nickname, for those who were confused about that little part :)
