College AU
~~~
Getting into College is difficult. Add in the fact it's the most prestigious hero academy in the whole world and you've got yourself quite the journey ahead. You weren't magical or super badass, you weren't a god nor a super genius. B...
"Merry Christmas, bitches!" The entire floor had stayed for Christmas, so did the Greek gods which was great because you didn't want to leave anyone out.
"Do you have to be so loud?" Bucky groans.
"Yes, get ya gals and guys, I'll get the Greeks," saluting they all went off, eyeing the gifts under the tree Peter and Vision had decorated.
With everyone filing in, from Loki and Aphrodite, to Bucky and Anna everyone was squished into the living room. Pietro handed out gifts like lightning and soon wrapping paper flooded the floor.
You had gifted everyone something they would enjoy thoroughly, a short card saying the basics. What really made you smile was the reaction Aphrodite had when she opened your gift. You hated her, yes let's not forget that, but it was Christmas!
"Who got me this?" She holds up a beautiful pearl hairclip.
"That would be me," you quip, opening the present Peter gifted you.
"You... got me a gift?"
"Well, yeah, I may hate you and want to stab you constantly but it's Christmas and I'm not leaving anyone out," you smile sweetly, though unlike other times, this was genuine.
"Thank you..."
"Thank Posideon too, he helped me get the damn things from the beach,"
"She was very determined to make it perfect, we went through what? 134 oysters?"
"Hey, your fishy friends kept getting small ones!" you scold the sea god as Aphrodite clipped the accessory in her hair. "Thanks, Pete," you smile at the Sherlock Pop Funko. "Now Moriarty won't be so lonely,"
"Don't you have the crowned one?"
"Yes, but Mr Holmes needs apple Jim too," you stick your tongue out at the secret hero who returns the gesture. "Last but not least, Tony Stank,"
"Hey, careful, I may just revoke my gift," the billionaire scoffs.
"I'd happily give it back if it's a lingerie set," smirking at Tony, you open the box and lay eyes on an outfit. "A little too much fabric for your taste, don't you think?"
"It's a suit, considering you're the only one who doesn't have one," he throws dagger holsters at you. "Go ahead, try it on,"

As the group laughed with each other you awkwardly walk back to them in your suit. "Well?" You lift your arms then let them fall back to your side.
"Oh dear sweet baby Holmes," Anna gapes. "Much better than my sketch," she mumbles quietly to herself.

"Not good?" You cringe at the silence.
"Not... good?? You look amazing!" Wanda gasps.
"Really?" Pink rises in your cheeks as everyone nods. "Good to know," chuckling lightly you take out your blades and smile. "Now I still need a hero name... and I've got no ideas,"
"Queen of Hearts?" Clint points to the blades. "'Cause, you know, the hearts and stuff?"
"First good idea you've had all year, Barton," patting the Hawk's head you flip the blades and smile. "Queen of Hearts, I like it,"
"Step on me," Anna chokes out making everyone turn to her. "What? If she ran you over you would thank her," she grumbles, hiding in Bucky's arms.
Bucky's arm... that was your next mission. Why the hell was he always hiding his left arm?
"Darl, how about we take it for a test run?" Hades pulls out a set of blades from his pocket making you grin.
"Don't have to ask me twice!"
"Anyone else want to join?" Hades looks around before tilting his head at Pietro. "Babe?" His pale cheeks rise tomato red as everyone drops their jaws.
"That's one way to come out," Hermes blurts out.
"Wait, hold on, I'm confused, is anyone else confused?" Bucky looks to Steve who nods then the rest. "I thought Hades was dating Y/n?"
"HA!" You burst into laughter. "Oh, that's golden!"
"Can't a guy just have a girl best friend?" Hades folds his arms.
"What about the 'darling' pet name?"
"If you paid more attention you'd realize I call everyone that," Hades sighs and grabs his jacket. "So, anyone want to join?"
~~~
You fought hand to hand with Hades as he flipped his blades around, landing light hits to you as best he could to test out the suit. Tony scolded him a few times but the god just shrugged and continued to fight you.
Laughing lightly, you shot your daggers at him which he caught expertly without hesitation. Though the few he missed were caught by Pietro who kissed the Greek devil on the cheek each time which ended with them zooming away back to his room.
"I'm way too single," falling back on the snowy grass the heroes shake their head as you caught your breath.
"You're not the only single one!" a few call making you smirk.
"Athena likes Anubis, Hermes likes Venus, Thor likes Jane, Bruce likes Nat, Wanda likes Vision, Sam likes Leila, Poseidon likes Salacia, Steve likes Peggy, Clint likes Laura, Peter likes MJ," You shout at the stunned group. "And the feelings are mutual," you smile as they all rush around frantically to find out if it was true.
"And how did you know all that?" Aphrodite asks from the steps of the dorm.
"Pupil dilation, sweaty palms, hitched breaths, child's play honestly," Rolling down the hill you let out a giggle before hitting the base of a tree. "Y'ouch,"
