Chapter 42

As everyone sat in the room quietly, as Dr. Cho walks out of the room where they were holding Natasha in. 

Clint and Steve stand up immediately. "What's going on?" Clint asks.

"Everything is fine," Helen assures. "She's just in a coma. She'll wake up soon." 

"Peter, Kat. It's time for school." Tony says softly. "Happy will take you."

"But-" Kat starts, but Peter sets a hand on her shoulder. "Alright."

The car ride to Midtown was quiet. Once they got there, Peter and Kat thanked Happy, before walking to the doors. 

"Kat!" MJ grins, slinging an arm over her friend. "It's been a long time huh?"

"Yeah. It has." Kat smiles. "Where's Gwen and Harry?"

Silence fell over the group. "They weren't dusted." 

"Oh. Oh." Kat's face fell. 

They walked to class in silence, awkwardly staring at each other. It wasn't the same. Not really. Gwen and Harry would usually fill the silence, cracking a joke or two, but Kat guessed those days were over. 

They sat down on random desks, Peter and Kat sitting next to each other, as the class waited for the teacher to show up. It was quiet. Too quiet. 

Peter held Kat's hand, looking reassuringly at her. "Hey, it'll be fine. It's the same, except you know."

"Yeah. Yeah, I guess so." Kat nods, smiling at Peter. One of the reasons why she loved Peter so much was his way of reassuring people. One look at his face had Kat smiling and melting. Before Thanos, Kat and Peter usually spent all of their time watching the Star Wars movies, and cuddling. "Can we go to your house today?"

Peter smiles, looking at his girlfriend. "Of course! I love spending time with you!" It was true. Peter loved spending time with Kat, holding her, being on patrol with each other, basically anything that including Kat, Peter loved. Maybe it was the way Kat filled him with happiness, and light, or the way Kat looked at him, and only him with so much love and happiness. 

Vice Principal Morita walked into the room, surprising most of the inhabitants. 

"There will be no classes today, as most of the Blipped teachers are trying to find a home, and most of the non-Blipped teachers have quit their jobs. The decathlon team shall still hold their club, as Mr. Harrington is still here." 

A collective gasp of relief swept through the room, as Mr. Morita left. 

Peter and Kat were among the last to leave, hand in hand, walking to the Decathlon meeting area, the gym. 

"What's up losers?" MJ waves, looking up when the gym door open. 

"There's the favorite couple of the Decathlon team!" Cindy grins. 

"Really? Wow, uh-" Peter starts, blushing.

"Thank you." Kat smiles. 

"Come have a seat, I have something to tell you!" Ned says, scooting over. "MJ, scoot." 

MJ raises an eyebrow, but scoots anyway, leaving room for the couple to sit together. 

"Alright, I've just got notice for this... we have clearance to go on a school trip!" Mr. Harringotn cheers. "We're going to Europe!"
