The red room princess

Chapter 17

It has been a month since Peter and I started going out and dating. I must say, that I've never been happyer in my life.
- Hey, do you want to hang out after school today?
- I don't know, your mom acually invited me for dinner tonight, - Peter said holding my hand while we were walking to class.
- That's strange... I mean, it's nice of her, but she didn't tell me anything.
- Don't worry about it too much, now I'll see you after class, - He said and went into his class.
After school, Peter went to the compound with me and surprisengly there was a homemade food smell. I went into the kitchen and saw my mom cooking.
- Mom? Since when do you know how to cook?
- Now you need to peel the potatoes,-Steve said walking into the kitchen with potatoes and a cook book. Me and Pete couldn't stop ourselves from laughing when we saw the image of black widow and captain america trying to cook the potatoes.
- The dinner will be ready in about an hour, - My mom smiled.
- Or two, - Steve said after he droopped a pot with water.

After about two and a half hours my mom called us for dinner. We went downstairs expecting the whole team to be there, but we were the only ones.
- Where are the others?
- Busy, tonight it will be just the four of us, - My mom said and it just seemed strange. We all sat down and I don't know why, but it felt like parents meeting the boyfriend dinner, even tho my mom already knows him and Steve isn't even my dad.
We started eating and well... The food was awful. I looked at Peter who seemed to be thinking the same.
- So kids, how is school going? - Steve asked breaking the silence.
- Pretty good, we will have a homecoming soon, - Peter said.
- What's that? - I said, genuenly not knowing.
All 3 of them then explained to me what it was. After that we just had some conversations, all trying to avoid the food in our plates.
- It's late kids, you should go to bed.
- But it's friday!
- Early training tomorow, Natalie-bed.
- Fiiine,- I said goodbye to Peter and went to my room.

PETER'S POV

Natalie went to her room and I was about to leave, when Nat stopped me.
- Can I talk to you?
- Uum sure, is everything okey? - I asked. Natasha leaded me outside and we sat down on a bench.
- Natalie is really happy with you, - She began saying.
- And I'm really happy with her.
- You know, I've noticed that Natalie didn't have any of her panic and anger problems ever since you enterd her life. I don't know how you did it, but my daughter is feeling better with you and I will do everything that's in my power to keep that. I know you're a nice guy, but I swear if you break my daughter's heart, I will break every single one of your bones, - Natasha said calmly, then smiled and stood up.
- Don't forget, you have early training tomorrow, - She said and walked back to the compound, leaving me a little shocked.
