In the next following days, Peter was kicked over by Flash from behind as the Parkers walked together down Midtown high school's hallway.

"That's worth ten points," Flash told Kong.

"Ten?" Kong scoffed, "That was six tops," he patted his blond friend's back.

Nova glared and stepped between the goons and her brother. "Back off!" She growled, she was waiting all morning for them to start something.

"Uh-oh looks like Bitch Parker is about to pull another Carrie," Flash taunted as he stood taller towards her, but she didn't back down by his intimation.

Students around them stopped and watched them. Waiting for another break fight between the two rivals. Like it was some type of daily show.

"Nova," Peter called out to her, "Forget it, let's go before we're late for chemistry class,"

But she didn't listen. She wanted to fight. Take down Flash once and for all. She glanced over at Kong. She could tell he didn't want to fight for he never intervened once.

"You know dressing up as a guy doesn't make you tough," Flash mocked her, tugging on her hoodie string, "It makes you unattractive. Even though you were always ugly," he smugly remarked before suddenly, with a quick movement wham her up to the lockers. Pending his arm right under her chin, knocking the air out of her with the surprise attack. She struggled as he leaned close to her, "Is this what you want?" He said as he put more pressure on her throat. Slowly cutting off the air circulation made everything feel fuzzy. She drugged her chewed-down nails into his arm gasping for air. "Oh you like it ruff," his grin twisted as he felt the pressure of her nails digging into the flesh on his arm.

How is this happening?! She thought to herself as she keep struggling.

Don't show weakness, you can do this!! Cried her inner voice.

Nova took a different strategy and pushed her weight off the lockers behind her. Shoving Flash to the ground with her on top. She quickly manage to sit up and swung her fist down at him. But he caught it and flipped her over. It was nothing but a struggle between the two and all the students gathered around them chanting Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight!

Nova kicked her footing under him to push him off her again as he did a swing for her.

"Bitch!" Flash called her as he went charging at her. She was about to sock him once he got close but was pulled by the waste and embraced to shield her from Flash's impact. "Cool it you two!"

Nova spun to see the stranger jump into the fight, "H-Harry!?" She gasped.

Harry winked at her when he grabbed a hold of Flash's fist with his free hand.

"Stay out of it rich boy!" The red furry face blond growled.

Harry tisk, "Shame, fighting a girl, do you know any better?"

Nova bit his inner mouth, "Harry please, I can take care of myself," she growled as she struggled out of his arm.

Harry let go of Flash but not Nova, keeping her shield and overly protective. "Sure you can sweetheart," he patted her head teasingly. Then he turned his gaze at Flash, "If you want to fight, take it out on me on the basketball court," Both Flash and Harry are on the Midtown basketball team and both are the best players.

Flash huffed, "Whatever, keep protecting your boyfriend there. One day, when you're not around, I'll get her one of these days,"

"Go flex a muscle!" Said Harry, in sports term words: go fuck off.

Flash throw his hands into the air as he walked away, with Kong following behind him to the same chemistry class.

After everything was calm, everyone went back to their normal rotten. Peter came up to them, "T-thank you, Harry," he said as he looked over at Nova with concern, "Nova your neck, it's bruse,"

She quickly covered it, "I'm fine!" She snapped as she pushed away from Harry who is still holding her close by her west, making her feel a little uncomfortable. But Harry didn't let her go but held her tighter and took hold of her chin, "Let me see," he said, as he carefully lift her head back. Causing her face to be slightly flush.

"Damn it that Flash, I'll get him for that," his cool tune became aggressive.

"I'm fine," she said again, trying to get out of his strong hold, "Forget it, okay! How is our project doing? Did you ask your dad if I can come over to do it?" She tries to change the subject.

"Even better," said Harry as he pulled the annoyed Nova close to his face, "We are going to my father's lab tomorrow as a class field trip,"

"We're What?!" the Parkers gasped.

Harry hummed, "That's right and I plan to give you a private tour, you and I," he winked at her.

Nova rolled her eyes and push his face from her, "Sure you are, you don't even know anything they have there. Do you?"

Harry laughed as he let go of her, "You know me, but I do know chemistry when it comes to women," he smugly smiled.

Nova could feel her face become warmer with every wink and smile he flashed at her.

Damn it! Don't fall his charm!! Her inner self told her.

She shook it off, "That's still not going to give us an A," she turned her back towards him.

He hummed, "Oh no but I don't mind getting a B or a C if you get what I mean," he snickered.

Nova felt her skin curl and quickly grabbed one of Peter's books and chased after Harry, "You perv!!!" She called out as the charmer dashed down the halls laughing.

Peter cried after her, chasing them down the hallway, "Nova no!! Those are the libraries!!"
