Peter woke up, blearily blinking his eyes open. A yawn ripped through his mouth, making him groan. "It's too early to go to school." He mumbled unhappily.

May called from the kitchen. "Peter, get up! You're going to be late!" That got him up. Peter vaulted out of bed, frantically pulling on the first outfit that didn't smell. As he made his way to breakfast another yawn escaped him.

May smirked, handing Peter a banana. "Sleepy boy, better run!" Peter sighed, and grabbed his backpack and lunchbox.

As he rushed down the rickety wooden stairs, Peter hollered, "Bye Aunt May! See you tonight!"

He barely caught the "No you won't!" Before his phone buzzed.

May: Steve is picking you up to spend the weekend at the tower

May:It's Friday, remember?

Peter grinned before typing a response.

Peter: Yup

Peter: thx. I love you!

Peter woke up from a dream, sweating heavily. He sighed, getting out of his bed. He walked, dejected, to school before yelping at the time.

Peter looked up from his phone before sprinting to school. He wasn't winded, but for the sake of a secret identity, he acted the part. He panted, wiping pretend sweat off of his forehead.

Ned wandered over to Peter and greeted him. "Hey. What are you doing this weekend? Any, you know, web designing?" Ned winked and jabbed Peter lightly in the side.

Peter laughed and replied. "Nah, Steve from Brooklyn is picking me up for the weekend."

Ned's eyes widened. "Steve from Brooklyn?" He whispered excitedly as he leaned closer so no one heard their conversation. " THE Steve? " Peter bobbed his head, Brown curls waving in the light wind before the two friends parted ways.

"See you later, dude!" Peter called.

Peter strolled into his homeroom, sitting at his usual spot. He dumped his backpack and slouched in his seat. Just as he got comfortable, a sneering voice made itself known.

"Puny Parker! Hey! Over here!"

Peter sighed. Flash was always seemed to know when the worst time was.

"What?" Peter asked, trying to be polite but failing. "What has required my undying attention?"

Kids around the room snickered slightly. Peter almost wished they hadn't. Now Flash would be mad, and beat him up. Except Steve was picking him up, and soon Flash would be killed or (worse) expelled. Peter didn't want that to happen. Flash didn't deserve his future ruined.

At least, Peter tried to convince himself of that once Flash threw a spit wad at him, laughing hysterically when it hit its mark. Peter wiped the gross glob off of his cheek, crinkling his nose in disgust.

Flash slowed to a chuckle, throwing Peter a glare when the teacher started class. The glare told Peter something: Watch Out.

Peter mentally gulped.

The first classes passed by with ease, not much going on. The occasional paper wad thrown at the back of Peter's head, sure, but nothing major. At lunch Peter met up with Ned and they strolled to their usual table.

They gave a small wave to Michelle, who only returned it with an eye roll.

Halfway through lunch, Flash came over to the pair (or trio, depending on how you look at it) and grinned. "Hey, losers! can't wait to see you after school, Peter! You are going to look awesome smeared across the floor!"

Peter tried to not care, he really did. However, Flash's taunts got to the point where Michelle intervened.

"Flash," She reasoned,"You realize this could get you kicked off of the Decathlon team, right? We wouldn't miss you much, seeing as your a back up person." Michelle glared at Flash. "Also, you used my term of my term of endearment against these losers," She said, jabbing her thumb in Ned and Peter's general direction,"And that is so not okay."

Flash frowned. "Why do you even care about these useless people? Humanity should be ashamed of them."

Michelle stood up. "Okay Flash, I've given you more than one chance to back off and go away. I am going to take this to the principle, seeing as Ned over here secretly recorded the whole thing."

Ned nodded, only slightly confused.

Flash paled. "I'll stop."

Michelle nodded. "Good choice." She went back to reading her book.

As Flashed left to go to his table, he whispered harshly,"See you after school, you better be there." to Peter.

Ned scowled at Flash's back. Then, He just looked confused. Leaning over to Michelle, he whispered,"I was recording it? Since when? My phone is in my locker, I don't want the teachers to confiscate it."

Michelle rolled her eyes. "It's called bluffing, idiot."

Sighing, Peter slammed his locker close. He glanced both ways before leaving the school, he made a mad dash to where Steve was surrounded. His disguise didn't work well, evidently.

Flash grabbed Peter's sleeve. "Where do you think you're going, coward?"

Peter winced. "Uh, Flash, might not want to beat me up today."

Flash scoffed as Peter glanced at Steve. "Pshaw, he doesn't care about you. He probably is here for those videos."

Becoming sick of Flash nonsense, Peter began to have an edge on his voice. "Flash, he will find out, as several people already have, that you bully me. I've managed to swear them to silence for now, but not for much longer! You are going to get expelled soon, Flash. Knowing Tony, he'll probably ruin your entire future. I don't want that thrust upon you. Leave now and that won't happen."

Again, Flash only laughed. "As if, really expect me to believe you're on a first-name basis with a billionaire? He threw a punch, aimed at Peter's face, but it was blocked.

Looking up from where his eyes were squeezed close, waiting for impact, Peter swallowed a gulp. Steve Rogers, in all his glory, was holding Flash's fist with an unamused expression on his face.

"Cap, it's nothing!" Peter said tentatively.

Steve scoffed. "Peter, he was throwing a punch at your face. I'm pretty dang sure that this is something."Turning to Flash, he frowned and squinted. "Now, what're we going to do about you?"

Peter was quick to intervene. "Nothing! We are going to let him go! You have no proof he has bullied me!"

"Bullying? Peter, has he been bullying you? I thought this was a one-time thing, but if he has been bullying you, we need to do something about it." Rogers huffed.

Pleading, Peter said,"Let him go with a warning! Don't ruin his future!"

Eyes softening, Steve asked if that was what Peter thought he was going to do if he found out about the bully.

Peter nodded shyly.

"Peter, you have too good a heart for this world. We need to tell a teacher, at least."

"Fine. I'll tell a teacher tomorrow. Please, can we go? I promised Tony I'd help him after school but we're late!"

Steve slowly nodded before turning on his heel to face Flash. Leaning into Flash's face, he threatened, "If I ever see that you've placed a fingernail on Peter, I will not hold back from anything. Understood?"

Meekly, Flash moved his head up and down in jerky movements.

Rogers turned with flair and got in the old car that Peter was waiting in. After he started the car, he casually asked,"So how may people know?"

Peter grimaced. "Sam found me beat up in a bathroom, Tasha used deductive reasoning, and Clint was told by her."

The rest of the ride was silent before the Stark Tower loomed in the distance. When the pair stepped out of the car, they were greeted by Wanda. Raising an eyebrow, she asked,"So he knows?"

Peter scrunched his forehead together. "What?"

Wanda laughed and said, "Peter, you know what I'm talking about. I've know you were being bullied for a while. I don't always stay out of people's brains. I'm getting good at it. Anyway, I knew you were preoccupied by something and I thought it was a girl. So, I wanted to know your thoughts. I was partially right, but I found out it was that stupid boy that bullies you."

Peter's eyes looked down.

Wanda winked. "Michelle sounds awesome."

Peter blushed. "Stop it! Get out of my brain!"

Steve smiled as the pair ran off. He could hear Wanda's teasing,"Peter and Michelle, sitting in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G" and Peter denying everything.

Maybe everything would turn out okay. Not for Flash, though. Oh, no. Mess with one of the Avengers, the rest mess with you.

Hope you like it! If you want a special plot for one of the next few chapters, let me know! (Or if you want a certain character in it)
