"We have a lot of classes together!" Gwen gave him the paper back and Jamie smiled at her shyly. "We should be partners in chemistry class" the bell rang and everybody went to their respective classes. It sure was going to be a long day for everybody.
Liv was desperately trying to pay attention to her English Class but was too busy keeping her mind thinking how her life has changed in matter of days, until suddenly something hit the back of her head, kinda annoyed she turned back just to see Flash's face smiling like the ass he was. The girl just rolled her eyes and focused in the lesson.
And just across the classroom there was Peter and Gwen sitting next to each other and laughing while Peter made ridiculous faces to Gwen, next to Peter was Jamie who was paying fully attention to the teacher, besides this week they were discussing "The Great Gatsby" more reasons to caught the boy's attention, behind Jamie there was Marshall who just started to the ceiling the whole time.
After the bell rang Liv and Marshall headed to their lockers, their next class would be PE.
"So, who was that guy back in class?" Marshall asked to the dark haired girl as he opened his locker and took out his backpack with his PE clothes.
"Who?" Liv asked opening his locker and leaving her English books in.
"The one throwing little balls of paper at you…" Marshall took one of the balls of paper from Liv's hair and showed it to her.
Liv just rolled her eyes and took out her backpack from her locker.
"Just an idiot, he's been picking on me since we were freshmen" the girl took a hairband from her locker and tied up her dark hair in a ponytail. "And that paper you're holding must be his number".
"He likes you" Marshall said impressed as they both walked to the dressing rooms.
Liv was about to enter the girls' room but stopped right in front of the door without turning to look back at Marshall. A slight snort came from her before laughing.
"Flash? Interested in me? this must be some kind of joke… he would never date someone like me" she replied, his eyes looking down to her shoes.
Marshall was the kind of guy that would hear the entire life story of someone else, and yet be kind to them. He placed one of his hands in Liv's shoulder and she raised her eyes to look at him.
"You just need to stop…" Liv's look turned confused when the boy said this.
"Stop what?" she asked frowning.
"All of this, that attitude, it's not going to work" marshall sighed "I know I am not someone you've known for a very long time, but I can tell you've had a very hard life" Liv crossed her arms in front of her chest "I don't know what happened, but I do know that if you don't stop acting like…".
"A bitch.." Liv interrupted him "I know. A lot of people told me that, even Jamie".
"Maybe arrogant, aggressive, explosive, but a bitch?…" Marshall put the paper in one of Liv's hands and closed it "Trust me, I know real ones, they don't care for anyone but themselves" then he left to the boys' room.
Liv sighed and looked at the paper he'd placed in her hand. She opened it carefully and found it was Flash's number. She just smiled cockily and went to change her clothes. She'd talk to him before leaving school, That was really going to take him by surprise.
"I'm so hungry" Jessie the pretty skinny girl said while sitting in the table where the crew was, her tray full of food, enough to feed 5 people, everyone in the table just stared at her.
"What?, I'm just a girl with a big appetite, drop the looks" she frowned.
"Whatever, I need to go to the library, pick some books, see ya later" the shy boy ran off.
"Wow, and he hasn't eaten anything all day" Peter said leaning forward.
"He doesn't eat that much, mostly when he's nervous, it'll take time to him to adjust" Liv said between teeth's devouring her sandwich.
"And are you ready for tomorrow night, dear friends?" Gwen asked them, and sat on the table, crossing her legs.
"Why?" Dianne asked.
"There's gonna be this party, which it's basically a celebration in honor of the new business relationship between Stark and Oscorp Industries, it's gonna be a formal gala and all that "high society" thing" the blonde sounded excited "I love this kind of parties".
"And sure we're all invited?" Peter asked doubtful, that didn't sound the kind of party were they would be at, her girlfriend nodded.
"Just talk with my boss, " she dramatized Tony's last name " and he said, and I quote "Obviously that bunch of weirdos are invited" " she tried to imitate him in a hunky voice and ate her yogurt giggling.
"Great. Now we have to attend a boring party" Dianne rolled her eyes.
"I never got it, how did you end up working for ?, I thought you we're working for Oscorp" Marshall asked her, an eyebrow up.
"Oh, well after was arrested, Oscorp was a mess for weeks, between the damages and all of that, then called me, saying that recommend me, apparently they were friends for some time, and he said that since I didn't had a job anymore, I should accept his proposition to be 's new assistant, I basically screamed when called me" Gwen said like she still felt the excitement of the call.
"Now it all makes sense" Liv said with a confused look.
"And OMG, you guys so you're like going to be the New Avengers!" the blonde almost shout to the wind, in response the rest of them just "shhh" her immediately, some curious stare's were directed at them.
"Sorry, I know it's supposed to be a secret" Liv, Marshall, Dianne and Jessie gave Peter a deathly stare, knowing he told her "it's just so…unbelievable?".
"Now it wouldn't matter that much, I mean we came to school in a freaking limousine, way to keep the incognito, I'm getting bored…bye" Dianne said with her typical annoyed tone and left with a bitchy smile.
"There is something I don't like about her" Gwen pursed her lips.
"Tell me about it" Liv got up finishing the last from her sandwich "and to this party…you said it was going to be like a fancy thing, we need to go all dressed up to the occasion?".
"Obviously, I'm pretty sure we can find something that could suit you, you let that in my sweet hands, you will be stunning" Gwen did an strange gesture with her eyebrow's.
"Officially, Gwen I'm scared to talk to you" Liv said then the bell rang.
"Thank god, classes again to avoid the awkwardness" Peter got Gwen's hand and they both went inside the building together, there were such a cute couple. Their school day had been going great, well at least for some of them.
Jamie was in the library. The perfect place for him, books was clearly his life. Back in time, when he used to go to public school he'd spend the entire lunch break reading some history and old literature books. He used to be the smartest guy from his class, got the best grades and the first place from the honor roll was for him. It all broke down when he started hearing voices and having panic attacks due to his precognitions. He was just thirteen when he was taken in a mental institution. Therapies, pills, needles and even sedatives were the only thing that could keep him calm from having to see or listen to those voices.
Memories from that place were horrible, he just shivered when he thought of what he'd lived in there. Now his life had clearly given a 360 degree turn, something very hard to assimilate was happening to him, but he still had his best friend to hold on to.
Jamie looked around the bookshelves for something interesting. He had three books in his arms already, but something caught his eye.
"Norse Mythology" He whispered the name written in gold as his hand reached for the red leather book to take it out of the bookshelf. Jamie shuddered and brought the book with him, maybe he could learn something about Thor.
Dianne looked at him from the distance narrowing her eyes to take a closer look to the book he had just taken from the bookshelf.
"Maybe you're not that useless after all" she said in a low tone of voice when suddenly her phone buzzed. A new message appeared in the screen. She pressed the button to read it and a smirk covered her face. She glanced at Jamie once more before leaving to her next class.
"What's about a party you're going to throw tomorrow?" Agent Romanoff entered Tony's apartment furious.
"Oh yes dear, why don't we enjoy a little, it's going to be the event of the year." Tony smirked, and got up from his desk to get a drink of his personal bar.
"After what Fury told us the other day? And Loki's escaped from Asgard? It's not safe, we should be on alert not on party-alert" the spy said.
"It's just a tiny party, to honor the new relationship between Oscorp and Stark Industries" Tony smiled "besides nothing that chaotic has happened to not have some fun, and please dear wear a pretty dress, I know from some bird, Agent Barton may ask you to dance" the man winked at the agent and gave her a drink.
"What?" Natasha tried to hide her kind of blushed cheeks.
"Isn't obvious?" Steve said from behind Natasha.
"God, with what kind of people I'm working with, let's just concentrate on finding Loki" she left the drink untouched on the bard and left more furious than she was.
"She needs to relax" Tony said to Steve.
"She's trying to do her job, as the rest of us" the tall brown-haired man said to Tony "What if Loki's behind all of this attacks?"
"It's not what if, he's behind it, the question here, it's pretty clear Rogers, what is he waiting for?" Tony made a good point that even got Steve thinking about it.
"That means we're sure, he's got more help this time, the Chitaru" Tony nodded at Steve's answer.
"Yep, he's probably plotting right now, but I know where he's gonna be tomorrow night" Tony said confidently and drank a big gulp from his drink.
"Where?" the Cap's eyes were curious to know, he knew that Stark was smart and sometimes got this weird plans, that he's not surprised to hear them anymore.
"My party, like I said before, he likes the big time, civilians, high society and celebration, he's still got the diva attitude for sure" Tony's eyes stared into space.
"And we're gonna be there, ready to capture him" Steve smiled.
