The Nightingale

Chapter 24 - How Are You Even My Kid?

Allison's POV

"Freeze!"

I slowly turned around giving a ridiculous smile.

"Yes?"

"How do you know you can't get drunk?"

I gave a confusing look.

"What do you mean? I didn't say anything about not being able to get drunk."

"I heard it." Nat said.

I gave her a death glare.

"Thanks for throwing me under the bus."

"Anytime." She said, taking a sip of her beer.

"Maybe I've tried it before because Hunter dared me to because he didn't believe that it was possible." I said giving a stupid smile.

My palms started to sweat and I knew I could lie my way out of this one. After all, I was a Russian/Hydra assassin. I looked over at Nat and realized she could see right through me. Well shit. I'm never getting out of this one easy.

"Alli." Dad said, "how would you even know that you can't get drunk?"

"Because you can't." I said.

Tony started to laugh.

"How?" Dad asked.

"Because I'm not stupid. I got ears and eyes on what your past was like."

"Bucky!" He said.

I gave a devilish smile.

"Not just Bucky, but all of your other friends like Mum, Howard, and Dum Dum." I crossed my arms.

"How are you my child?"

"Let me see. When --" I stated.

Nat covered my mouth.

"Yeah, let's not we all know how it works," she looked over at Peter, "well most of us."

Peter just stood there awkwardly. Bruce walked into the room with his lab coat on.

"Are you ever coming back to the lab?" Bruce asked Tony.

"This is more interesting than that." Tony said.

Wanda walked in.

"Vis are you ever coming back to the movie?"

"Wait am I the only one who just now noticed Vision standing in here and also why is everyone here?!"

Everyone kinda just shrugged their shoulders. Peter put his hands in his pockets standing there awkwardly because of the 'family conflict'.

"Anyway I think it might be good for Allison to go to school tomorrow just so she can try to have some type of normalcy even if people know who she is." Bobbi said.

"Agreed!" I screamed.

"Please?" I asked.

Dad looked at me trying not to give in.

"Steve." Tasha said.

He continued to look at me.

"Fine. You can go." He said.

"Go where?" I asked.

"Fine, you can go to school." I jumped up and down because either way I wasn't staying locked up in the compound like an animal locked in a cage.

"But."

'OF COURSE THERE'S ALWAYS A BUT!'

"But someone's going with you." I rolled my eyes.

"Fine. I'm picking." I scanned the room, "Peter."

His eyes shoot up.

"Wait what?" He asked.

"Peter can go with me." I said.

I walked out of the room.

"See yah." I said.
