[ Chapter Sixteen ]You're On
River saw and heard the video montage of memoriam of Tony, Vision, Natasha and Steve. It was hard not to hear, considering they put I will always love you in the background.
"Historic. Over 5 years ago, half of all life in the universe, including our own Midtown High, was wiped from existence. But then, 8 months ago, a band of brave heroes brought us back. They called it the blip." Betty paused, "Those of us who blipped away came back the same age. But our classmates that didn't blip, had grown 5 years older."
"And even though we had blipped away half way through the school year, and had already taken midterms, the school made us start the whole year over from thre beginning."
River walked in the hallways with her head lowered.
She didn't want anymore attention than she needed or wanted.
See, the truth had been spilled about her not being River Jack, and being more River May, and River Rogers. Not that she used Rogers as her last name, but still.
She couldn't stand more pity glances about her dad.
She also didn't want a million people swarming her, and asking her what it was like to save the world.

"I have a plan!" Peter exclaimed, sitting down beside Harry, River and Ned.
"What?" River questioned. "Okay, River, first, you're gonna sit next to Mj on the flight." Ned nodded, he continued explaining the plan to River.
"And then six, she hopefully tells you she feels the same way." River furrowed her brows, "Peter, before the blip, Mj and I were dating." She reminded him.
"River, don't forget step 7." "Step 7..." Peter trailed off, "Don't do any of that." River sighed happily.
Mj walked over, "What up, dorks." Mj greeted, smiling at River.
"Excited about the science trip?" River nodded, "We're talking about the trip." Harry answered quickly, "And Peter's plan." Ned also answered.
"You have a plan?" Mj asked, confused. "I don't have a plan."
Now River was extra confused.
It was weird, but River could understand, yes, Mj and River still liked each other. But, since Mj got back, it's just been, a kinda distance between the two.
"No, he's just gonna collect tiny spoons when we're travelling to other countries." Ned winked at Peter.
"Like a grandmother?" Mj wondered.
"By the way, travel tip, you should probably download a VPN on your phone just so the government can't track you while we're abroad." She suggested.
"Dude, I think that went really great." Ned said, making Harry, River and Peter look at him.

"Hey! Ri, wait up." Harry said, catching up to her.
"What?" She asked, grabbing the stuff from her locker to go home.
"Are you and Mj okay?" He questioned. "Yeah, why wouldn't we be?" She asked, hoping he wouldn't pry.
"You know, it's just, you two don't seem as close as you were beforehand. And I just-" "We're fine, Harry." River replied in a tone that made you want to stop talking, or you could possibly die. "Ri-" "I said we're fine." He looked at her sadly.
She closed the locker door and walked out of the school.
Jay kinda happened.
Yeah, I know, I'm evil, but in my defense, I had to make conflict. Not really, but I wanted to.
Okay, bye!
