1:04pm Lunch

Natasha didn't know where to sit.

It was a big problem because this was the first day and to sit with the 'wrong people' would mean social suicide. She smirked and went to sit next a boy by himself on a table by the vending machines. "Can I sit here?" she asked. He looked up and nodded.

"Sure. My friend's coming in a bit but there's enough room for all of us." he said and pushed his glasses up his nose.

"Who's your friend?"

"Tony Stark."

"Great." Natasha drawled sarcastically. She thought of leaving but the only other available tables were one with Pepper, Jane and Maria on (girls she thought were okay but a bit ugh) and a table with Barton on. Not him. The arrow-wielding maniac with a penchant for her. According to Stark.

"I'm Natasha." she added after a minute's silence.

"I'm Bruce." he said. Then, "what's up with Tony?"

"Huh?" Natasha turned to see Tony storming through the room, hands gripping a tray and an angry scowl on his face.

"She rejected me!" He screeched as soon as he sat down. He didn't even look at them, just tore off a chunk of chocolate muffin and started eating it. "Katrina Von Baron rejected me! I! Anthony Stark, the super-genius!"

"Oh. Bad luck, mate." Bruce said. Natasha raised an eyebrow.

"You fancy her?" she asked scornfully. "Miss Oops I ate a whole chocolate bar and now I'm obese and nobody's going to love me ever?"

Bruce nodded. "She is very cheerleady, Tony. Not your type."

"She's a cheerleader?" Tony ate more muffin. "And Bruce she's hot! She is my type!"

Natasha sighed and sipped her caramel coffee. Delicious. "I didn't know you were so narrow-minded, Stark. Get your act together and go ask out someone who's not a mindless bimbo." she snapped.

"Who's a mindless bimbo?" someone said curiously from behind them and Natasha saw Pepper.

"Oh hi. Kat rejected Tony." she told her. Tony glared at Natasha.

"That's alright, tell everyone."

"It's only Pepper." Natasha rolled her eyes. Only Pepper was staring at Tony.

"Kat? She has a boyfriend. Polish prince or something. He's a spy for the Polish navy." Pepper said then wandered back to her table. Tony's eyes lit up. "I must find this boyfriend and see if he's hotter than me. Carter vous." he shor off.

"What does Carter vous mean?" Natasha asked Bruce.

"Nothing. For someone so smart he's incredibly stupid sometimes."

"Yeah I guessed." Natasha grinned and they ate the rest of lunch in comfortable silence.
