As I'm walking home I hear some fighting. Stay out of it, stay out of it, ugh I can't. I grab a crowbar and walk into the alley. Ready to beat some sicko's ass. "What's going on here?" I ask. "This is no place for a pretty girl like you." I smack him with the crowbar, he stumbles back and I tiger sweep him, he falls back onto the ground "T-thank you. Fine c-citizen." It's Peter. I can already tell by the stutter. 

"Fine citizen? Really?" I shake my head, "Okay, well you've got things handled. I should head home." I drop the crowbar and walk out. "Wait!" Peter, Spider-Boy, says following me. "What?" I ask, turning around. "I-I was wondering if you wanted to go out for ice cream with Wanda, Pietro and Peter." he says, frantically glancing around. It'd be so obvious that we're talking about secret stuff if someone was watching. I roll my eyes at his paranoid self. 

"Yeah, sure, I'm off work at 3pm, no work at Stark Industries. Sure." I nod. "Uh great, I-I mean Peter, Peter will meet you at Avenger Tower. T-then he, Wanda and Pietro can walk to the ice cream shop together." he says, I nod, "Cool. See Peter then." I take a different route home, ensuring that Spider-Boy doesn't follow me home. I climb up the red fire escape and open my room window. Slipping in and locking the window behind me. I get ready for bed and climb into the blue sleeping bag.

"PETERRR, WANDAAAA, PIETROOO" I yell as I walk out of the elevator. "What the hell are you yelling about? And can you stop yelling?" Tony says, stumbling a bit. Irritated. Either he's normal or he's hung over. Probably hung over. "Did you have a party Tony? Did you skip my invitation?" I ask, "You're 14, 15, how old are you?" Tony asks, sipping his drink in the mug. 

"Not here to answer questions. I'm here to get ice cream with Wanda, Peter, and Pietro." I say, "Didn't know that you are the type to get ice cream so casually." Tony teases, I raise an eyebrow "Well I'd assume you'd make a deal over ice cream, like a meeting but in a casual setting." he adds. "Good. That's what I aim for. WANDAA, PETERR, PIETROO" I yell, staring Tony in the eye. 

"Ready to go?" Wanda asks, excited for ice cream. "Thanks for the money, Tony!" Pietro shouts out, raising Tony's wallet as the elevator doors close. Peter's mortified while Wanda and I laugh. "So which ice cream place are we going to?" Wanda asks. "Morningstar's. They have great ice cream." Peter says, "Great. Let's go there."

Wanda, Pietro, Peter and I walk to Morningstar's. Above the door was a purple sign that read "Morningstar's" there's LED lights surrounding the sign, representing tiny stars I imagine.
We walk in and are greeted with a galaxy theme. Blue, purple, and pink walls. There are star and planet shaped lights hanging from the ceiling. There were colorful stars painted on the ceiling.

It was...magical. Felt like you were engulfed in the galaxy. Just floating in space.

The kids were enchanted by the stars in the ice cream shop since you can never see the stars in the New York polluted sky.

Loud because children are laughing, they're so happy, the parents are smiling fondly at their small offspring. Like Jay smiles at Ava. Lovingly.

Sometimes I wish Ava could have a normal childhood. Playing with friends, having fun with her parents. Cam tries hard to give her a somewhat resemblance of a normal childhood but you can't really do that in our position.
