Dec 10 - Wakanada
Sry abt the late update. I didn't finish this one yesterday and didn't have time right after to work on it. So sorry its so short...
Peter POV:
This morning, Shuri had insisted that she come with to drop me off at school. Not that she was going, she just wanted to tag along I guess. Does she even go to school? Maybe, I don't know.
When I step out of the car I see MJ walking towards me. Ned wasn't here yet. She comes over just as I shut the car door.
"Hey loser," MJ greets me.
"Hey," I say back, and just then the window rolls down.
"HI MJ!" Shuri shouts from the back seat.
"Peter... why is the Princess of Wakanda in the back of your car?" She asks me, and I look around to make sure no one heard that.
"Well she wanted to come with me this morning." I say, and then I hear a car door slam and Happy driving away.
"Hey," I hear from behind me and whip around to see Shuri standing there holding a backpack. "I'm coming to school with you!" She says excited.
"Uh- no you're not!" I hiss quietly, but Shuri had already skipped off with MJ towards the front of the building. My eyes widen and I run after her. I stop in front of Shuri and hold out a hand to stop her.
"No, you're not because you have no idea what American schools are like here!" I say quietly, but Shuri just shrugs, and walks around me.
"I've watched enough American teen dramas to know how places like these work." She says, and then walks through doors with MJ.
"Fine, but if you get kicked out iT'S NOT MY FAULT!" I yell after her, before realizing that the bell was going to ring soon, and hurry inside after them.
TimeSkip
It is now AP Chem and Shuri has been in and out of my classes all day so far. Sure she would like to be in class with MJ, but she was worried about what she would say if the teachers calls her out. And with me, well she has an excuse- er like a cover up story I'd guess you'd say.
As we take our seats, Mr. Mulligan notices Shuri. "Excuse me, but who exactly are you?" He asks, and she looks around before pointing to herself.
'Me?' She mouths in shock.
"Yes," Mr. Mulligan says back, not wanting to deal with any of us today. "Who, are you?" He says dully.
"Oh well I'm Peter's cousin." She says and Mr. Mulligan looks at me. He raises an eyebrow in a, 'can you vouch for her?' kinda way. I nod my head.
"Yeah, she's visiting this week, and my uh Da-" I stop myself from saying 'my dads'. Who knows how that will be taken at this school, and plus, the only people who know about my family at school are MJ, Ned, Harley. And well I guess Shuri now.
I clear my throat. "My aunt said that she needed to come to school today because all she does is sit around the house." I said and Shuri slapped my arm. "Ow!" I said and rubbed my arm.
"But I guess his aunt forgot to tell the school." Shuri says and I just go along with it. Mr. Mulligan sighs and waves a hand.
"Fine, fine whatever." Mr. Mulligan runs a hand down his tired face and starts teaching the class.
TimeSkip to lunch
Shuri didn't bring a lunch, so all four of us pitched in to give her something. I gave her my carrots, Harley gave her his chips, Ned gave her his cookie from the school lunch, and MJ gave her an apple. I watch with wide eyes as she does this.
"What Peter?" Shuri asks me when she sees my expression.
"MJ just... just gave you her apple..." I say shocked and MJ throws another piece of fruit at me.
"Come one stickey boy, it's not that big of a deal." She says and turns the page of her book.
"Yeah, except you always have an apple at lunch." I say but after a few moments everyone gets back to eating, probably because we're all in the next class together, and we have this big test. But after Shuri finishes her lunch, and drags MJ off.
MJ POV:
Shuri finishes her lunch a few minutes after me, and then she drags me off to who knows where. But when I recognize the hallways were taking, I realize that were going to the library. Wait- why are we going to the library? I already have more than enough books right now. I'll last at least like another week or two-
"Come on Pretty Girl," she says and I smile a bit at the name. Then we finally reach the library and no ones there. Sometimes people come here around lunch, but this time there's no one. Shuri drags me off into the shelves of books, getting us utterly lost. We end up in a section about the African Countries, and Shuri pulls a book off the shelf.
"'The People of Wakanada'? She says, and crooks her eyebrows. "They spelt Wakanda wrong," she says and opens the book. Shuri starts flipping through it, and each time she reads something that is probably not accurate about Wakanda, her upset expression just increases. Her eyebrows cross and she has this cute little pout on her lips. I move the book away from her face with a finger, and she looks up at me, probably about to rant about something. But instead her expression drops when she meets my eyes, and I watch as her eyes drop down to my lips for a quick second. Then back up to my face, and I start to lean in. And she does too. And then our lips touch.
Harley POV:
When the lunch bell rings, we all stand up and throw out our trash before going to our next class. We were all more or less prepared for the test, but where were MJ and Shuri?
TimeSkip to like 20 min later
Well, the test was pretty easy I guess. I finished a few minutes ago, and Peter a few before me. Ned was still going though, but I bet he's almost done. But when I turned mine in, I asked the teacher if I could go and get a drink of water. She said I could, and I walked out into the hallway. After I finished using the water fountain, I heard giggling.
I look up to see MJ and Shuri. Finally! They had been taking forever- wait. Why are they holding hands? Why are they- OH MY GOD!
"Hey Harley," MJ says as they both walk up to me. I smirk.
"So... you two." I wiggle my finger back and forth between them and Shuri smiles and nods her head.
"Yep, but the real question is," She raises her eyebrows at me. "When are you and Peter getting together?" She laughs and MJ smirks, meanwhile I'm blushing bright red.
"W-We u-uh..." I stutter. "W-Were not a th-thing." I say and Shuri gives me the 'yeah right' expression.
"Oh come on! It's so obvious that you two like each other! The fact that you two don't see it yet is really quite sad." She remarks and I just roll my eyes.
"He does not like me." I state, even though it pained me to say so.
"Hmm, yeah right." MJ says and then the two of them walk into the class. I sigh and follow them back into the class.
Peter doesn't like me though... right? I mean if he were into me, I would have noticed right? Yeah.. I would have noticed. But...
