Chapter 13 // God save the prom queen

Hopes POV

his speech at the start ↓↓↓

"Everybody wants a happy ending right?"

It's been 3 days since dad... you know, and we had found a hologram video in his lab on one of his old helmets, I got everyone into the living room to listen

"but it doesn't always roll that way, maybe this time... I'm hoping if you play this back, it's in celebration, I hope families are reunited I hope we get it back and something like a normal version of the planet has been restored if there ever was such a thing... God what a world, now if you told me 10 years ago that we weren't alone, let alone to this extent I mean, I-I-I I wouldn't have been surprised but come one who knew? The epic forces of darkness and light that have come into play and for better or worse... that's the reality Morgan and Hope are gonna have to find a way to grow up in, so I thought it would be better to record a little greeting in the case of an untimely death. On my part" he added

"not that death isn't untimely... this time travel thing we're gonna try and pull of tomorrow it's got me scratching my head about the survivability of it all, but then again that's the hero gig right? Part of the journey is the end" Morgan held onto me tighter, and dad got out of the seat he was on

"What am I even tripping for, everything is gonna work out exactly the way it's supposed to" he walked over to Morgan and me

"I love you 3,000"

that was always a thing for us, we always said I love you 3,000. it started with Morgan then it just became a thing we all did

he turned it off and I ran to my room

Just like I had done last night I sat on my bed and screamed and cried into my pillow

"why... why did you have to leave? You could've stayed... for me... for Morgan and for mom... for peter even" I whimpered to myself, when I stood up to fix my make up I didn't feel sad right then

I felt angry at him

I threw everything off my desk and when I turned around I saw the prom crown on my bedside table, I walked over to it

"dad was so proud of me... then he left me to fend for myself" I snapped it in two before I saw a picture of him and I picked it up I fell on the floor crying once again

"I can't... I can't do it without you... I miss you so much, peter... if he ever gets hit down, he gets back up, he tries again but for me? I can't do that..... I don't know why I wanted this; I've never been good at this whole fighting thing... I break down all the time and I- I'm weak, you?... you were strong you were a real hero....."

Eventually, I stopped crying and I just felt guilt

"I'm sorry dad... I should've done that... not you" I stood up, calmed down, fixed my makeup, and walked back to where everyone was sitting

"let's do this thing yeah?"

Mom walked out first holding the wreath with dad's light in one hand and Morgan's hand in the other, after that I and happy walked out, then everyone else behind us

Mom put it in the water then knelt down with Morgan while I walked to the front, dad said in his will that I should make a speech, I can't believe he left such a big responsibility to me...

Peter's POV

She started walking to the front

"her dad is gone... she needs someone" I heard cap say behind me

"she's got the looks," Wanda said

"all the boys on hooks," Rhodey said

"But she'd trade it all just for a heart that's whole..." I added just as she got to the front, but she looked really pale as if she could faint any second

"you know... I never thought about if dad died, mostly because I never really thought he would because like he said... 'he is ironman' and he's always been the best dad, always protective which was sometimes a pain in the ass, yes but it was helpful... always kind.... everyone says my dad is my hero or my mom is my hero... but my dad is... was, an actual freaking superhero... if it wasn't for him I wouldn't have met peter o-or become the best I can be... I became prom queen, which he was very proud of... there's a song what was it?... oh yeah... God save the prom queen"

she fell to the floor,

unconscious.....
