Hey there! I hope you enjoy this fanfic. Don't forget to review (I'll remind you at the end XD)
It was Friday afternoon and instead at Peter's place fixing old computers, Alex found herself stuck in the dodgiest classroom in all of Midtown High. The lights flicker, the floors creak, there was no air conditioning, and every single desk was covered with old gum and pencil marks. Even with the windows open wide the heat did not escape the stuffy classroom.
Beside Alex was MJ, sketching Alex and her moments in crisis.
"Goodness where's the teacher." She muttered to herself.
No one but her and MJ was there, the teacher was missing. Alex's phone was non-stop buzzing on and off.

MJ looked over Alex's shoulder, "Peter pants" she reads, raising an eyebrow.
"What?!"
Just as she remarked the door opened wide and a student got pushed in, Mr Morton one of the schools science/math teacher followed behind. Alex slammed her phone onto the desk face-down not as quietly and quickly as she hoped.
The student was the one and only Flash Thompson. He glared at Alex while shuffling to the furthest back table from the teacher. Alex matched his glare. Still happy with his bloodied nose.
Mr Morton turned on the tv selecting the 'detention speech' from the list of the Captain America speeches, then sitting back down and getting comfortable while Mr America did his work for him.
"So you got detention, how are you gonna make things right?"
Alex zoned out for the whole lecture and got brought down to earth from her phone which didn't stop buzzing. She grabbed it quickly without anyone looking, declined a call from Peter and turned it to silence. Mr Morton looked at his watch and announced that they could leave since it was almost 6:30 already, but told Flash to stay back since he tried to skip.
After picking her bag up and throwing it over her shoulder Alex quickly dialled Peter,
Just hurry up and pick uppp
"Jesus where the hell are you?"
"Detention" she mumbled grumpy,
"WHAAAAAT?! How does the innocent popular girl get detention that lasted until 6:30"
"Well... first of all I'm not the innocent popular girl, second of all, the teacher came late because third of all, Flash was there and I got detention because of him and his stupid little gang"
"Wow, ok"
"Yep"
"Anyways you actually are the innocent popular girl"
"I am so not!"
"Yeah,"
"Don't start it with me Parker!"
"Yeah, yeah. Just hurry up and get back so I can show you what me and Ned have been doing while you were getting told off by Captain America"
Alex huffed thought the phone and heard Ned laugh on the other side.
"Yes, ok. I'm coming. But I need to catch the train first. Byyyeeee"
"Bye" Ned and Peter said in unison. The phone beeped and Alex clicked it off.
Time skip - 30mins*
"Guys you really didn't do actually anything while I was away" Alex shook her head in disappointment.
"Like you can talk, you basically spent 3hrs doing nothing" Ned retorted.
"Yeah well if I was here then this would of been done, but obviously it wasn't because you guys can't do anything without me" She exaggerated the word 'anything' for more effect.
"Guys can we just get along and finish this computer now Alex is here?!"
"Don't you mean cucumber"Alex snorted,
"SHUT. UP"
Alex held her hands up in surrender and muttered, "someone's got their cranky pants on"
"Whatcha say?"
"Nothin'"
"K then, let's get to work"
"Jesus it's not a freaking mission Parker" She mumbles.
Why don't we just skip to the part when they're finished - 2hrs later*
"Oh god, I'm stuffed" Peter grumbled while lying on the floor
The trio ordered 3 boxes of pizza at 7 and since they were hungry teenagers each finished a box.
They've finished the computer AND the Death Star(Alex reckons it's because she was there) and it's currently 8:45 at night. Aunt May went to Alex's house to spend the night with her dad because they needed to 'catch up' what ever that meant.
Alex was scrolling through her feed when Peter decided to bring up the 3hr detention Alex suffered.
"So why detention again"
Alex rolled her eyes, "don't say 'again' I never told you"
"Then let us on the juice" Ned piped up. Seriously, sometimes Alex thought Ned was more of a girl then she was.
"I was walking through to my locker when Flash started roasting me and his gang of hobos joined in or what ever for no apparent reason about how I looked and stuff, the usual." Alex paused, looking to the two boys, "then he brought my mum into it and said that I was the reason she left me and my dad," her breath hitched, "so I kinda punched him and he got a blood nose" she smiled.
The two stared at her for a solid minute. Alex gestured to them, "Well? Did you guys loose your voices or something?"
"Umm... how come I didn't see that?" Peter said.
"Maybe because you rushed out of class like you always do" Alex snapped back. Ned gave Peter a look, a You haven't told her yet? look. Peter slightly shook his head.
"Doesn't matter anyway," Alex ran her hands through her hair, "it's not like anyone would care that much"
A jingle of keys was heard and then May walked to the door,
"Alex, your dads here to pick you up"
Alex grumbled and stood up walking towards her bag preparing to leave. As soon as she did Ned turned to Peter,
"Dude!"
"What?"
"How have you not told her that your Spider-Man yet?"
"Because there hasn't been the right moment yet?" The statement wasn't meant to come out as a question.
"Yeah, so when's gonna be the 'moment'?" Ned emphasised the quotation marks with his hands,
"I-I don't know"
"Sure what ever, your gonna tell her soon right?"
"Yeah course I will"
Alex is in the car with her dad
"So.." her dad started,
"I heard you got detention"
Alex rolled her eyes,
"It's not a big deal dad"
"Yes it is,"
Alex shook her head mumbling a 'no it's not',
"Tell me what happened Lex?" Lex was what her dad called her, and her dad only.
"Flash was just picking on me"
"And?" He encouraged her to go on,
"And he said I was the reason mum left" Alex had tears streaming down her face,
"So I punched him and he got a blood nose"
Alex leaned into her dad as he drove,
"Don't worry Lex she didn't leave because of you, and guess what?"
Alex looked up to face her dad,
"I'm not even mad you punched him"
Alex laughed.
Time skip
Alex was just getting reading for bed when she heard a tap on her window.
"Ugh don't tell me it's Spider-Man" she leaned over to draw the curtain. After seeing his masked face she opened it up,
"Now why are you here"
