A/N: usually I do not update this fast but I been feeling like it, so why not. Sorry for the slow start but I'm trying to set up the story, I'm just making it up as I go on. Hopefully this chapter gets more into the story than just the set up. I want to thank Petra0suomesta for her comment, it meant a lot to me I didn't think anyone would like this idea.
FEW WEEKS LATER AT THE AVENGERS TOWER:
It has been a little while since Peter has seen Zhora, he has been busy with Spider-Man stuff around Queens and she was most likely trying to adjust. Peter asked Tony if he could come over to the tower and see Zhora, to show her how to be a human teenager. Even if he wasn't sure himself, he was gonna try if it meant he could see Zhora. He didn't know why but he couldn't get the Skrull girl out of his head, he wouldn't tell anyone but he thought she was much prettier in her own form than her human form. Did that make him a freak for having a crush on an alien he thought to himself as Happy drove up to the tower.
"You ok back there? you haven't said a word since you got in the car." Happy ask not really minding the silents but usually he couldn't get Peter to stop talking.
"Yea, sorry just lost in thought I guess" Peter laugh nervously tying to brush it off. Happy just looked at him for a second through the mirror then forgot his oddly silent behavior.
"Ok we're here" Happy said putting the car in park, and Peter jumped out of the car once it was. Happy shook his head, that was the Peter he knew. Peter ran in the tower and was quickly greeted by Friday.
"Hello, Mr. Parker" Friday said throughout the commons room.
"Hello, Friday." Peter greeted the AI back, he knew he didn't have to but even know she wasn't a person he felt it was a nice thing to do.
"Mr. Stark had to leave for meeting in Berlin, he left you a voice message. Shall I play it for you?" Friday asked as Peter sat his backpack down on the long white couch, and Happy walked in the building himself
"Yeah, thanks Friday" Peter said listening for the message.
"Hey kid, I had to fly out to Berlin, I'm sure Friday told you. Zhora has been adjusting fine, and she seem excited that you were coming over to see her when I told her. She's probably in her room blasting music I regret showing her my AC/DC albums, or watching F.R.I.E.N.D.S. Pepper showed her that one." Tony said in the message.
"What's wrong with showing her the best show ever" Pepper said in the background of the message Tony let out a short laugh at his girlfriend.(sorry if you don't agree, but F.R.I.E.N.D.S. Is my all time favorite show)
"Anyways kid, just hang out with her and don't overwhelm her. She thought my toaster was gonna kill her the other day, when Thor made Pop-tarts. Guess they don't have toaster in space, anyways see you when I get back kid. Friday end recording" Tony finished the message. Peter seemed confused about the whole toaster thing but let it go quickly and turned to Happy.
"Where is Zhora's room?" Peter asked Happy who was helping himself to coffee that was in the corner.
"Second floor, go right and follow the sound of High Way To Hell" Happy said, then turning around to face Peter but noticing he has already ran off.
2ND FLOOR OF THE AVENGERS TOWER:
Peter got off the elevator and turned right like Happy said and he in deed heard loud music blasting. Low Key by Ally Brooke Peter thought figuring out the song. Peter knocked on the door but no answer. She probably couldn't hear the knocking over the music, so he opened the door slowly looking inside. He found her jumping on her bed dancing, she was in her Skrull form hair now braided back down her back going to her hips and tucked behind her pointed ears and a few strands framing her face.
He noticed she wearing normal clothes or at least by human standers, an AC/DC T-shirt that looked too big for her Peter guessed she stole it for Mr. Stark, and jean shorts like most teen girl wore at his school. She didn't notice Peter yet, and Peter didn't say anything to get it he was too distracted by her long green legs jumping around. Shaking his head realizing he was staring with a small blush appearing on his checks.
"Zhora?" Peter said once the song ended, she then noticed Peter a bright smile on her face she jumped off the bed. Once her bear feet hit the ground she turned off her music before running up to Peter.
"Peter the Parker" She said stopping in front of him.
"Peter, fine" Peter said thinking of how weird she said his name.
"OK! Peter, Stark said you were gonna show me how to act like humans my age." She beamed happily, looking at Peter like he was gonna tell some amazing secret. Peter rub the back of his head nervously not sure how to start. She seemed so different than the last time he seen her, she was so shy but now she was bursting with energy.
"Let go hang out in the commons room" Peter said not comfortable hanging out in her room. It wasn't her room, it was the thought of hanging out in a girls room even if the girls not from earth. Zhora just smiled and followed Peter to the commons room.
"Don't you have to change?" Peter asked referring to her form.
"No, Stark said I can be in my true form as long as I don't go outside, then I would need to change as you put it. But if you are uncomfortable I can change" Zhora looked up at Peter for an answer entering the elevator now.
"NO, it doesn't make me uncomfortable. You can be you if its more comfortable for you" Peter rambled and stopped himself before he embarrasses himself too badly. Zhora just giggled at Peter's odd behavior not thinking too much of it, but as she giggled Peter had to stop his face from turning red her laugh sounded so beautiful even if it was at his expense. Once they entered the commons room, Peter didn't see Happy figuring he left to do some work. Peter took a seat on the couch next to his backpack and she followed suit and sat next to him.
Peter didn't know if she sat close to him on purpose not that he minded, or if she just didn't know better either way Peter choose to pretend he didn't notice.
"Stark told me you are the man of spiders" Zhora asked breaking the silents.
"Yeah, but it's Spider-Man" Peter said looking at her now.
"I seen some news things about you since I have been on your planet, it's very impressive. Very noble too to do such good things and not letting anyone know it's you." Zhora smiled at him once more. Peter face began to heat up once again.
"Thanks" Peter said shyly hoping she wouldn't notice.
'Stop getting so worked, she doesn't even know she doing this too me. She probably unfamiliar with human attraction, I'm probably not that good looking by Skrull standards not that I am by human standards either.' Peter thought to himself getting lost in his own head he forgot Zhora was just staring at him to do something.
"Tell me more about your kind" Peter smiled trying to get the awkward silents he created to go away.
"My kind? Hmm... let's see... We can change genders like you humans change hair color" Zhora said trying to think of something that would interest him about her kind.
"Really?! You can just decide to become a dude?" Peter asked in shock.
"Yes I can, but I personally have not ever changed my gender. I found no need to" Zhora answered looking at him and could tell he still wanted to know more.
"You know we can shape-shift, we can shape-shift into any living or non living thing as long as we know what it looks like." Zhora said trying to think of more.
"So you could just turn into a lamp if you wanted" Peter said in a joking manner.
"Yes" Zhora said simply not getting Peter joking tune. Peter blinked at her in shock she could seriously just turn in a lamp. That's when Peter phone when off, Peter looked at the caller ID and say it was Mr. Stark. After telling Zhora he picked up the phone.
"Kid?" Tony said from his end of the call.
"Yes Mr. Stark" Peter answered a little confused why he was calling him, he have never done so before.
"Your still with Zhora right?" Tony asked
"She right here" Peter answered
"Great I was thinking she won't learn just staying in the tower all the time, You should take her to where ever you kids hangout. I gotta go now kid" Tony said then hung up. Peter was unsure of what to do he doesn't really go hangout at place being a nerd of the school.
"Zhora wanna see Queens?" Peter asked looking at her, she looked confused.
"Your world is ruled by a queen?" She asked looking at Peter for and answer.
"No Queens is a place, it were I live" Peter laughted. She seemed unsure but agreed to go.
QUEENS:
Happy drove them since Peter couldn't drive and Zhora wasn't quite sure what a car was. He seemed against it but Tony told him everything would be fine. Zhora in her human form now looking out the widow of the backseat amazed of what she saw. Happy dropped her off in front of Peter's apartment building.
"I'll be back 8 to pick you up" Happy told Zhora who nodded her understanding before Happy drove off. It was only 5 so that gave Peter enough time to show her around Queens.
A/n: This chapter seemed to get too long in my opinion, so I'll continue this in the next chapter. Suggestions, and comments are always welcome. Hopefully this is getting better.
