Avengers kids at high school chapter 7
Nobody's POV
As the group arrived at Harry's place, the girls were chatting together. Harry turned to Brendan "You sure your mum's alright with you two staying at my place?" He asked
"Yep it's all cool, my mum doesn't really care." Brendan said "Actually it lets her off the hook."
"Fair enough." Harry replied "Feel like beer and karaoke?"
"Yep." Nathan says
"I don't really drink." Leo confessed
"Neither." Porthos agreed
"Well you will by the end of the night." Brendan said. Harry led them up to the gaming room. He brought out beers and started up the PlayStation. The girls sat on the couch at the back of the room chatting.
A few hours later
"I am completely wasted." Tomi slurred. "Hey Harry pass me another."
"Yeah I want one too." Stella said
"Yep me too." Athena slurred
"Me three." Carmen shouted
"Me four." Lauren slurred. The girls looked at each other and starting laughing at nothing. The boys shook their heads and sighed.
Harry staggered over to the cupboard and brought over five beers. Harry 'accidently' spilled some beer on Tomi. "Hey Harry watch where your spilling that." Tomi exclaimed
"Follow me you can borrow some of my clothes." Harry whispered seductively dragging Tomi towards the exit. No one payed them any attention.
Porthos and Leo were completely wasted and were lying on the ground trying not to throw up. Nathan and Brendan were still singing on Sing Star. Stella walked over to Nathan and whispered something in his ear. Nathan was quick to follow her out the room. Then Porthos and Brendan took Lauren and Athena out the room leaving Carmen and Leo alone. At first it was awkward and then Leo said quietly "You know Carmen you're really pretty."
Carmen choked on her beer and slurred "Yeah right. Stop joking around."
"No I'm serious. The first time I saw you tonight my first thought was that you're pretty." He replied
Carmen crawled over to where he was lying and sat next to him. "Mhhhmm sure. Wanna play truth or dare."
"Sure you can do truth on me first." Leo slurred
"Do you like anyone at the moment?" Carmen asked
"Maybe."
"That's not an actual answer."
"Fine, yes I like someone."
"And what does she look like?" Carmen asked
"Like you." He answered
"Really? I don't know anyone who looks like me." Carmen said
"Yes…that's because it is you." He said
Carmen choked on her beer again. "WHAT!"
"It's true." He said getting up and looking at her straight in the eyes. "I liked you the moment I set eyes on you." Carmen didn't reply to what he said. She just looked at him questioningly. He lent in closer to her face searching her eyes for any resistance. He didn't see any so he gave her kiss. At first it was really short and then he lent in again and gave her a longer kiss. It turned more heated so he whispered "Come to my room for the night."
She nodded and followed him out the room.
Carmen's POV
I woke up the next morning with a throbbing headache. I rolled over and banged into something really hard. I clutched my head and sighed. I opened my eyes slowly and suddenly realised where I was. "WHAT…THE…FUCK?" I screamed and got up quickly out of the bed. Then I realised that I was naked and quickly grabbed the sheet that was covering Leo. I grabbed all my clothing and sprinted into the bathroom. I quickly changed into my clothing and walked back into the room. Leo had put some pants on and now was sitting on the bed clutching his head with a pained expression. I can only guess that he had a bad headache like me.
I coughed and he looked up with blood shot eyes. "This." I pointed to us. "Never happened." I walked out of the room with him looking sadly after me. I walked out of the house to my house next door. My three brothers stood in the doorway with their arms crossed over there chest. "Hey Mike, Jet, and Vinn. What up?"
"Where were you last night?" Mike asked in a stern voice
"Next door." I pointed to Harry's house.
"You know…dad's going to kill you." Vinn said
"Chill dudes. I didn't do anything that bad…actually forget what I just said." I said looking down at my shoes embarrassed.
There facial expressions changed to shock as they realised what I was getting at. "You didn't!" Mike exclaimed.
"I think she did." Jet sighed rolling his eyes.
"Yep dad's going to kill you for sure this time." Vinn sighed.
"Why am I going to kill Carmen?" Clint asked walking from behind me. I jumped and he looked me up and down with a surveying look. I squirmed a little at his look. Dad has always got me to spill everything with that look. He looked at the three boys still standing near the door and seemed to get what they were thinking even without anyone saying anything. "Carmen where were you last night?" He demanded
"Harry's place." I said pointing next door. I tried to keep my face as innocent as possible.
"And…who was there?" He asked trying to maintain his anger.
"Ummm. Obviously Harry, Brendan, Nathan, Leo, Porthos, Tomi, Stella, Athena, Lauren, and me." I said as innocently as I could. Dad stood there silently for a few minutes and I couldn't take it any longer and blurted. "Dad say something."
Mike, Jet, and Vinn were trying to stop there laughter but where failing. Clint silenced them with a glare and they quickly walked back inside. He turned to me slowly and said "Who was it?"
"What do you mean who was it? I asked
"You think I wouldn't notice if something has changed to my daughter." This dark aura started to surround him as his mood became darker.
That was my queue to sprint for it. I quickly ran for it into the house hoping to get away from my dad's wrath. "Carmen get back here." He roared and followed me into the house. Shit! I ran into my room and grabbed my bow and arrows and jumped out the window. Oh thank god my house is only one level. I ran towards Harry's house hoping for a safe place to hide. And to warn Leo to run for it.
I ran in and everyone was sitting around the kitchen table eating breakfast. When they saw my face and my bow and arrow their faces grew worried. "What is it Carmen?" Harry asked
"Ummm, Leo. I would run if I was you and yeah every man for himself!" I ran upstairs to the gaming room to go hide.
Then I heard my name being shouted downstairs. "CARMEN. GET HERE NOW!" Dad shouted
God help me!
Nobody's POV
Clint turned to the teenagers sitting around the table eating breakfast. "Who was it?" Nobody wanted to answer him. He gave them a glare and the boys slowly pointed towards Leo. Clint's glare intensified and Leo shrunk a little into his chair. "I'll deal with you all later." Clint said shouting and left the room. Everyone sat around the table in silence unsure of whether to run for it or stay put. Each of them knew if they run for it they'll still get in trouble.
Clint grabbed his mobile out of his pocket and called Tony Stark. "Hello." Said a cheery voice
"Stark, do you know what our kids were doing last night?" Clint shouted down the phone line
"Sheesh, Clint calm down. To be honest I don't care and Clint they aren't kids anymore, so let them be." Tony said in a carefree voice.
Tony didn't help Clint's mood any better. He was seething with anger and wanted to kill the boy who took Carmen's innocence. He hung up on Tony and threw the phone through the window which shattered instantly. Clint didn't seem to notice that he just broke Phil Coulson's window. He walked into the gaming room and saw Carmen cowering behind the couch. "Carmen we have to have a little chat and with this boy Leo." He said in a stern voice
She stood up and rolled her eyes. She jumped on the couch and made herself comfortable. "LEO!" She called and minutes later he arrived with a guilty and worried look on his face. Leo didn't know whether to stand or sit so he just remained standing.
"Will somebody please explain what happened?" Clint said
Carmen was the first to speak. "Do you want the short version or the long version?" His glare told her not to play games so she kept going. "Short version it is. Anyways, we went to the dance. You know that. Then we came back to Harry's place because he said his parents were ok with it. We got a little drunk." Again Clint gave her another cold stare. "Fine, we drank a lot and got really drunk. And we are all getting over a massive hang over, so please keep the shouting to a minimum. And Leo slept in the same room as me, Happy now?"
Leo fidgeted and decided to sit down after all. If it was possible, Clint's mood became darker. He was trying so hard to not kill Leo that his muscles were tensing to get his bow and arrow. (Although his level head and his duty as a role model kept him from doing so). Carmen watched his dad carefully and Leo was trying to avoid eye contact but his eyes kept wondering up to Clint's.
"Do you know how irresponsible you two have been?" Clint said in an angry voice.
"Oh please, stop treating me like a fucking chi-."
Clint cut in. "You are a child. And by your actions you've just proven that you are."
Carmen stood up quickly and her face flushed in anger. "I HATE YOU!" Hot tears flowed down her eyes and she ran out the room. Leo looked really uncomfortable just sitting there doing nothing in the middle of the family fight. (A/N: Guys these days.) Clint stood there shell shocked. "I hate you." Circled around his head. Carmen is a real daddy's girl so being told that for the first time in his life, is a shock. He staggered to the couch and fell on the couch. He looked over to Leo with a cold look and Leo squirmed a little. If looks could kill, Clint's glare would be at the top of the list.
"You can go now." He said in a cold voice. Clint blamed Leo for what Carmen said so he sent him away before he did something rash. Leo stood up quickly and practically ran out the room. Clint sighed and slouched on the couch drowning himself in his thoughts.
Carmen's POV
I rushed down stairs after shouting at my dad. I can't believe it, he can't keep bloody treating me like a little child. I'm sixteen turning seventeen soon. I rushed down the stairs to find Lauren at the bottom looking worried at me.
"What was that about?" She asked
"Argh, don't bloody ask. I'm just annoyed at dad at the moment." I said
"Sounds like you hate him." She sighed and leant against the post at the bottom of the stair railing.
I sighed and rolled my eyes. I know what she's getting at. "Lauren I don't regret saying what I did. He needs to know that I'm not a child anymore."
"Well you sound like one now."
I growled in protest. She put her hands up in mock surrender. I trudged down the stairs and walked past her. She turned around and looked at me. "Where are you going?"
"Out." I said
"You don't need to dig a bigger hole than you already are in now." I slammed the front door in her face as my answer.
Nobody's POV
Lauren sighed as Carmen slammed the door in her face. She was used to Carmen's temper and just brushed it off like it was nothing. Clint came clomping down the stairs and looked at Lauren with a sad look. "Where did she go?" He asked
"I have no idea." Lauren said ad turned around to join the others.
Carmen's POV
As soon as I left the house I ran next door to grab my bike. I dropped my bow and arrows off in my room and got my bike gear on. Mike was sitting at the dining room table and was eating cereal.
"Isn't it a little late to be having breakfast?" I asked
He choked on his cereal and look up at me with a questioning look. "Yeah, yeah. Where are you going?"
"Argh. I'm going out. You don't need to know what I'm doing, where I'm going, or the people I hang out with." I snapped
"Touchy. Just be careful on that bike." He said going back to eating his cereal. I sighed and left him to eating his cereal. I hope I don't encounter any more brothers on the way out. I went into the garage to go get my bike. It shined in the darkness of the shadows. I smile at my bike and placed my hand on it to feel the coolness of the metal. Other than my bow and arrows this machine gives me a feeling of comfort. Resisting the urge to just stand there gazing at it some more, I quickly jumped on it remembering what situation I am in. I pressed the bottom on my garage as it slid open I barely waited for it to open fully before I zoomed out of it.
I was riding around town, going nowhere. Just wanting to be out of the house. The wind brushing past my skin felt like it was scrubbing away my worries and emotions. Then sirens blared behind pulling me out of my deep thoughts. Shit, I really don't want to get in any more trouble than I am now. I pulled over to a side street with the police car pulling up behind me. There was nobody around, the street was completely. I jumped off and pulled off my helmet flipping my hair while doing so. I walked over to the police nervously. And then three men jumped out of the car running towards me. I had no time to react and was knocked out quickly.
Stella POV
Everyone was quick to leave after Clint crashed in on us eating breakfast.
"Well… I think we should all get going." Tomi said
"I agree, otherwise we will all get into deep shit." Brendan agreed
Everyone got up from the table quickly eating the rest of the breakfast. The girls ran to go get our stuff so we could quickly leave. I went outside to meet everyone and we all said our good byes. I gave Nathan a quick kiss and winked at him before I left to walk home.
He quickly grabbed my arm, "I'll walk you home."
"Don't worry about it. Plus, you have sport in like half an hour. Go with Harry and Brendan, I'll see you later." I gave him a kiss to reassure him I'll be fine.
I walked away and decided to just go straight home.
I arrived at my house after an half an hour walk. But before I entered the front gates I saw Daniel leaning against his car a few metres down the road. I sighed, I realised that he doesn't know that I know he is gay. I quickly walked over to him with a huge grin on my face. When I reached him he was about to hug me, I slapped him across the face as hard as I could. He fell to his knees as and put his hand to his face in pain.
"W-what was that for?" He gasped in pain
"You think I don't know, do you think I wouldn't eventually find out?" I said trying to put as much hatred and venom in my words. I will have this guy crying and begging for forgiveness at my knees.
"What are you talking about?" He asked in confusion
"I know your gay!" I screamed at him. I don't care if the neighbours heard me.
Surprise and confusion flashed across his face. He realised what I was talking about and slowly got up onto his feet. I really wanted to slap him again but resisted the urge. I will at least hear him out. A pained expression was on his face. My anger faltered for a second until I remember what he did.
"I have perfectly good explanation." He said
I tapped my foot, losing patience. "Better start explaining before I lose my patience."
"Ok, ok. But not here." He said motioning towards to the car. I was hesitant and got into the car. I should have known that getting into a car and not knowing where we were going was a stupid idea.
Tomi's POV
After making a quick escape from Harry's place I decided to go to the shops. I checked my phone to see if I had any messages. I had five missed calls all from dad.
I sighed and redialled is number. "Hello."
"Hey dad, sorry I forgot to tell y-"I started
"That you stayed at Harry's place for the night." He finished. "Yeah I already got an angry call from Clint.
"Are you mad at me? I'm sorry I completely forgot to tell you I was staying the night." I said in an uneasy voice.
"Yeah it's fine. I expected you to go stay at a friend's place. But what I wasn't inspecting it to be was a guy's place."
I laughed uneasily trying to lighten the mood. "Please don't tell mum." I pleaded
"Wasn't planning on it."
"Thank you, thank you, thank you. I love you so much. And dad I'm just going shopping for a while."
"Okay, just don't do anything that I would do." He chuckled
I smiled and hung up.
After a few hours of shopping I was walking down a dark alleyway they would connect to my street. I heard someone running up from behind me and suddenly before I could react to anything, I bag was shoved over my head. I screamed and I was hit in the back of the neck. I blacked out.
Lauren POV
After leaving from Harry's house I decided to just chill at home and wait for Brendan to call or text me. I was on the computer when I finally heard my phone buzz. I reached over and grabbed quickly.
From Brendan
Can you meet me at Gloria Jeans café in half an hour.
I replied a simple yes. I got into the shower and got ready before I left. "Hey mum I'm going to meet Brendan at the café." I shouted at the door.
"Yes that's fine. I won't be home when you get back though so take your time." She shouted back
"Kay see you later." I replied
I caught the bus on the edge of the street, watching the scenery flash by me. I noticed that no one else was on the bus and sighed with contentment. I like riding a bus with no one else because then I get some time to myself. After about 15 minutes I noticed that I should have been there by now. I checked to see the direction of the bus and I realised the bus has gone way past my destination. I slowly got up so I could speak to the bus driver. "Hey ummm… excuse me but we've gone past my stop."
The bus driver didn't reply so I tried again and spoke louder. "Excuse me but we've gone past my stop."
Again no reply, I noticed that he had a distant look on his face. He didn't even look like he was paying attention to the road. I waved my hand in front of his face and he didn't even flinch. I panicked and didn't know what to do. What do you do in these situations? Do you call the police or just sit back down and wait for the bus to stop.
The next thing that happened put me in greater panic. The air in the bus was becoming hot and it smelt like chemicals. I wondered if there was a fir on board the bus or something and checked around the seats of the bus. I couldn't spot anything. It was starting to become really hard to breathe and my vision blurred. Before I collapsed I saw a red light flashing on a camera in the front of the bus.
Athena POV
I lugged my load of shopping bags down the street in search of a taxi. I spotted one and waved it down. It pulled up just a few metres away from me so I tried to drag my bags towards the car. I pushed them all into the back seat with me and sat down. "Hi, 8 Monteith street Killara." The taxi driver didn't say anything and started drive away. The doors automatically locked. "Hey why did you lock the taxi?" I asked in alarm
He didn't reply and my skin crawled in fear. I went to go reach over to touch the guys shoulder and when I did it felt like plastic. I leaned over and realised that the car wheel was moving by itself. I was both panicked and curios. Curious, because I have never seen a car drive by itself. Then metal bars shut over the windows barricading me inside the cars. I yelped in surprise and went over to touch them. It shocked me with an electric shock. It didn't hurt because I am use to controlling lightning but it was a surprise. Never would I have thought that lightning or electricity would be used against me. The Taxi kept driving on auto pilot, driving me to an unknown destination.
Nobody's POV
After Harry, Nathan, and Brendan finished there soccer game they all walked home together. They were chatting and laughing and decided to go back to Harry's place. While they were in the gaming room Harry received a call from a private number. "Hello."
"Hi, this is Stella's mum. I was just asking whether you knew where Stella was. She was meant to be back ages ago so she could get ready for cheerleading practice."
"Sorry, but I have no clue where she is. After Stella left my place she was walking home. Have you tried calling her cel?"
"Yes, I've called her about five times. I'm getting worried because she hasn't ever skipped cheerleading practice unless it's for a good reason. I've also tried calling Tomi but she won't pick up either."
Harry frowned and Nathan and Brendan looked over in concern. Their game forgotten. "Ok calm down. We'll try and find the girls. You never know they could just be shopping."
"Ok, thank you Harry." She hung up and Harry sighed.
He looked over to the others and said "We have a problem. Stella's mum couldn't reach her or Tomi. They've gone missing."
