Spider-Man x Michelle Jones

Chapter 18

"Okay class," says Mr Brown in his boring, most brain numbing voice, "Assignments were due this week. So hand them in."

Peter sighed and pulled out his assignment and set it on the desk. Michelle who was sitting next to him did the same.

As their teacher went around picking up the other assignments Michelle murmured under her breath, "Any luck with finding anything on Osborn?"

Peter shook his head, "Nothing at all. I hacked his systems but it's like he doesn't exist within them. Plus there is no record of him since a year before the blip. Not too sure what that means but I'll keep digging."

Mr Brown passed their desks and they fell silent as he grabbed their assignments. Once out of earshot Peter whispered, "I've been working on some upgrades in my lab. Should give us an edge, especially if Task Master fails to keep any other mercenaries out of New York."

"At least that's a comfort," murmured Michelle softly as she brushes a few stray strands of hair from her face.

The bell rang and all the students got to their feet and practically ran from the classroom. Peter and Michelle entered the hallway which was crowded with their peers.

"How long is Ned gonna be off sick?" asked Michelle as she approached her locker and began entering her code. Peter shrugged, "Not sure to be honest. He just told me he wasn't feeling well and is not going to come to school for a few days. But he is using his time to hack into the secure Oscorp database for us so that's something."

Michelle nodded on agreement as she placed a few books into her locker and lifted out a few more for her final period.

"Hey MJ!" called out a voice in the hallway. Michelle and Peter looked over their shoulders and internally groaned.

Brad Davis, a bit of a pompous jerk who had the delusion that he was the best at everything and that any girl would love to be asked out by him.

"What do you want?" asked Michelle a little forcefully. Brad smirked, "Why don't you run along Parker, MJ and I are talking."

"As if I wanna miss this," says Peter as he leans against the lockers with a small grin on his face. Brad was a little confused but ignored Peter and returned his attention to Michelle.

"So I was thinking that if you're free this weekend that maybe you and I can go get some coffee. Maybe even a movie and see where it goes from there," said Brad in what Peter assumed was meant to be a sultry sort of voice, but it ended up making him sound like he needed sleep.

"Yeah not interested loser," says Michelle as she slams the locker door shut.

"I don't think you understand," replies Brad with a smirk, "Brad Davis is asking you out. Which means that you are a very lucky girl."

Michelle rolled her eyes, "I don't think you understand Bradley. Michelle Jones is telling you to fuck off."

Peter smiled and shook his head knowing what would come Brad's way if he kept pushing this.

"Listen here Michelle-" began Brad but he never got to finish because Michelle was so pissed off at that point that she punched him in the face busting his nose. She then proceeded to flip him over her shoulder and leave him laying dazed on the floor.

Michelle placed her boot on his chest, "I am not interested in slime like you."

Michelle then gave him a swift kick in the groin making him cry out and hold onto himself curling into a fetal position.

"Ouch right in the tenders," jokes Peter.

Michelle walks away from the teenage boy who was groaning in pain on the floor. Other students took pictures and shared them all over social media.
