Harley woke up to quiet snores and she rolled onto her side to see a man sleeping beside her.

"What the...oh!" She said quietly and covered her mouth quickly to stop herself from screaming.

Loki was still naked beside her showing the hickeys she had left all over his body. Harley cursed silently and carefully climbed out of bed, grabbing her clothes. Her eyes never left Loki's sleeping form and she picked up her ripped shirt.

She held back a groan and tiptoed to the wardrobe, hoping that Loki had a spare shirt hanging there. Luck was on her side so she pulled on his crips white shirt over her body and pulled her skirt up. Harley didn't bother to look for her panties as they were a lost cause, so she had to brave the cool weather and hope no one realised she was going commando.

With one last look at Loki, she closed the hotel room door as quietly as she could. She rushed down the hall towards the lift. She kept her heels in her hands until she stepped into the safety of the lift.

"Holy shit," She said, catching a glimpse of her reflection, "He truly did fuck the shit out of you,"

The doors opened and an elderly couple stepped in. They stared at her with a knowing look and she sent them a sheepish smile.

"Morning," Harley said and stepped into her heels, "Lovely morning,"

"Isn't it just," The old man chuckled, "You look like you had a great night,"

"The best," Harley breathed out and she felt her phone buzz in her bag. She unlocked it to see missed calls and messages from her friends. A few from Levi and her brother, "Shit. Oh! Sorry. I didn't mean to swear,"

"Fuck it," The old lady smiled, "No one is around,"

Harley smiled at them and the lift reached the ground floor. The elderly couple bid their goodbyes and she almost ran out of the hotel, hailing a cab.

Harley stepped out of the shower and blasted her hair with the hairdryer, in a weak attempt to dry it. No matter what hair products she used, her hair still remained frizzy. Harley scoffed and straightened it, before getting dressed in a pair of black ripped skinny jeans, a white shirt and her leather jacket. She stepped into her favourite black boots and grabbed her phone and bag.

Her aunt May was expecting her for lunch and she didn't want to be late or everything would be ruined. Luckily for Harley, her aunt lived around the corner so she didn't need to rush to get a cab. Plus, the fresh air would work wonders for her hangover.

"Aunt May?" Harley called out as she opened the door.

"There you are!" Peter said dragging her into the apartment, "I've just got off the phone with Nat. You need to call her back. I told her you were here last night and when you get off the phone with her, you can tell me where you were,"

Harley rolled her eyes and took her sunglasses off, "Alright, alright. I'm using your room or do you have porn up on your laptop again?"

"That was one time!" Peter exclaimed and punched his sister gently, "And no. No porn,"

Harley kissed her brother's head and went into his room to call Nat.

"Where the hell did you vanish to last night?" Nat asked as she answered the phone, "I was so fucking worried!"

"I'm ok. I was a bit drunk so I went to Peter," Harley lied.

"Right, and did Loki stay with you?"

"What? No!" Harley said, "He dropped me at the door. Said he didn't want anything bad to happen to me."

"Ok, that's good. Next time you suddenly disappear just let us know. We were worried you went back to Levi,"

"I wouldn't go back to that jerk-off. Trust me," Harley said as her aunt called her, "I have to go. May is calling me,"

"Alright. Same time next week?"

"You know it," Harley said and hung up. She ran her fingers through her hair with a sigh and went out to greet her aunt, "Hey, Aunt May!"

"Hey, beautiful," May said hugging her, "My goodness, you look tired. Long night?"

"You could say that," Harley said, "How have you been?"

"Worrying about you!" May said, "I don't know why you didn't punch Levi sooner. There was always something about him,"

"That's a lie. You thought he was good for me,"

"Ok, you caught me out," May laughed, "I didn't think he would be able to do that. He treated you so well,"

"Shit happens,"

"I still want to kick his ass," Peter said.

"Don't be stupid," May said, "Anyway, tell me what's been going on. How is work? Are you sure you don't want to move back here?"

"I'm certain. My place might be small but it's my own space. I will move out once I save a bit more money," Harley looked at Peter, "Have you asked how it's going with his girlfriend?"

"You have a girlfriend?" May gasped and looked at Peter who was wide eyes, "Why didn't you tell me?"

"Well, because, you know," Peter said.

"He is embarrassed," Harley smirked, "I think she is gorgeous. I have no idea what she sees in this dork,"

"You are a dork as well," Peter said, "And she is a dork as well so shut up,"

Harley rolled her eyes, "I heard you didn't want to do anything for your birthday. Why? You should have a big party,"

"I don't like parties," Peter mumbled, "I never get invited to them,"

"Don't break my heart young man," May said, "I'm sure Tony will be more than happy to throw a party for you,"

"Then count me out," Harley said, "I try to avoid all that shit. No offence to your boss, but he is a bit of a jerk,"

"Then we can have a small one here for him," May smiled, "I'm sure your girlfriend will love to meet your sister properly,"

Harley caught eyes with Peter who was biting into his lip, "Let's let him think about it for now. His birthday isn't for a few weeks,"

"Alright," Their aunt sighed, "I'm going to finish lunch. You two have a chat. I won't be long,"

When their aunt was out of earshot, Peter punched his sister.

"Where the hell did you go last night?" He hissed quietly, "Am I going to get into trouble for covering for you?"

"No. Of course, not," Harley said, "I...I went home with someone but don't you dare say a word. It wasn't Levi and I'm a grown-up. I can have sex,"

"Ew," Peter said, "That's so gross!"

"Shut up, virgin," Harley laughed, "How is college? Having fun?"
