Homecoming at Last

"I hate you for making me wear this." Ace glares at Robin. Georgia, Alyssa, and they are all wearing similar outfits to match. Ace was forced to wear a skirt, and she was not happy in the slightest.

"You'll have to get over it, because we're wearing these to the party at my house." Robin states. Alyssa and Georgia join them.

"You two are looking cute." Georgia says, fanning out her sunflower skirt. Ace sticks her tongue out at the girl, who laughs at the action. Robin wore a white skirt, with the pink skirt around Alyssa. Ace's skirt was also flower-patterned, with purple/pink flowers. She doesn't notice Peter until he taps her shoulder.

"Wow, Ace, you look...beautiful." Ace blushes. "Your outfit is really cute on you."

"Thanks, Pete." She smiles. Robin shoots her a wink, which she rolls her eyes to.

"Alright, you two." Ned appears. "We don't have time for you to flirt. We have a class to get to." Ace blushes at Ned's remark.

"Okay, okay. Chill, Ned." Peter says with a smile. Robin pulls Ace after her as Shawn appears.

"Ready for tonight?" He asks. Robin nods with a smile. "I'll pick you up around 7." Shawn disappears to class.

Ace puts the final touches on her makeup just as the doorbell rings.

"Mr. Parker is here, Ms. Rogers." JARVIS says.

"Show him in, JARVIS." Ace says, leaving her room. She runs into Thor outside her door, quite literally. The Asguardian pulls her upright as she falls back.

"Lady Acelia, are you alright?" The girl nods. "What festive are you going to?" Thor had noticed her dress.

"It's homecoming tonight. Peter's taking me." Thor raises an eyebrow.

"Who is this Peter?" Ace laughs.

"Friend from school. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to go get Robin." Thor nods and Ace runs to the spare room. Robin was finishing her makeup as she walks in.

"Peter and Shawn are here." Robin nods. 

"Almost done." Ace walks out to the living room. Peter stood by the elevator, gazing around. His jaw drops as Ace glides down the stairs. Ace laughs.

"You like my dress?" Peter nods.

"You look gorgeous." Ace smiles.

"Thanks. Where's Shawn?"

"Right here..." Ace spots him. "...Wow. That's a pretty dress."

"Thanks, tiger." She says with a smirk. Shawn blushes.

"Hi, Shawn." Shawn seems to glow with awe as Robin walks down.

"Wha...h-hi, Robin." He stutters. Ace laughs.

"What do you think?" Robin asks.

"You...it...you're beautiful." Robin blushes.

"Come on. Let's get this party on the road."

"Wow. The gym's never looked so nice." Ace comments. The lights had been covered in colorful paper, streamers and a disco ball hanging from the ceiling. The staff had set up the snack and drink bars. The dj sat on the side behind the score board table, using it for his board. The speakers blared music, requested by students.

Flash, Georgia, Ned, and Alyssa walk up. Georgia wore a full-length orange dress, and Alyssa had a floor-length maroon dress. Both of the boys wore suits like Peter and Shawn.

"You're finally here!" Georgia says, smiling.

"Love your dresses." Alyssa comments.

"Love yours too." Robin smiles. Just then, "Meant to Be" starts playing. Georgia turns to Flash.

"Let's dance!" Georgia pulls him away with a smile. The others separate to dance the night away.

Ace stands in a corner, sipping some punch. Peter walks up with his own drink. 

"Hey, you okay?" He asks. Peter noticed how she seemed uncomfortable.

"Yeah, it's just..." She looks out at the dance floor, where Robin and Shawn try to dance through their laughing. "...I'm just not used to this kind of stuff. I feel very out of place." She admits. Peter smiles.

"Come on. I've got something to show you." Peter gently grabs her hand and pulls her after him. Peter leads Ace to the roof. She gasps at the sight of the stars. They shone brightly, lighting up the rooftop.

"Peter, it's beautiful." Ace awes. Suddenly, the beginning of "Perfect" fills the air. She turns to Peter, who smiles.

"May I have this dance?" Ace nods, taking his hands in hers. Together, they dance to the song. Ace can't stop smiling, gazing into Peter's brown eyes. As the song ends, the two sit on the roof's edge, watching the stars.

"Look, a shooting star!" Ace points. "Make a wish."

"I wish for the girl I like most to love me too." Peter says. Ace smiles.

"She already does." Peter smiles at Ace. She lays her head on his shoulder. "I love you, Peter Parker."

"And I love you, Acelia Rogers."
