Sokovian Bastard

The next morning, Lyla heads back to the floor with the students before anyone can wake up. She takes a seat at the kitchen island and waits.

One by one, they all start coming out of their rooms, tired as fuck. Soon enough, everyone is out and sitting or standing anywhere around the room.

"I'm hungry." A kid whines.

"You guys are going home in maybe half an hour. You'll be good until then, I hope."

"You're not going home?" Flash asks.

"No. I have to stay here. I'm still in charge."

"Seriously, though. That is really cool." Ned says.

"A seventeen year old being in charge of the Avengers Tower?" MJ asks. "That's awesome."

Lyla just smiles and laughs a bit at all the supportive students.

"Thanks."

"Is it hard?" Betty asks.

"Actually, not as hard as I thought it would be but, it is only my first day so, I guess we'll see. I'll tell you guys Monday."

"That'll work."

"Wait. Guess what?"

"What?" Half of them ask.

"Tony asked me to sing at his party this Friday." She smiles.

"What? No way."

"Yes. I'm so excited. It should be on TV if y'all wanna watch. Just an offer. Not trying to force you to watch it."

"I'm pretty sure we're gonna watch it." A boy nods.

Lyla smiles and nods. The elevator dings and she stands instantly, making sure it's not a threat. Vision comes floating out and greets Lyla.

"Tony said they should be back tomorrow."

"Alright. You could've just told Friday."

"I know but, Wanda asked me to see how you are all doing in person so, I couldn't."

"Ah. Got it. Thanks. We're all good."

Vision nods and walks back through the elevator, taking it back to the common room. Lyla sits back down as if the students aren't staring at her.

"What're you guys looking at?"

"Awesome." A boy sighs.

"Y'all wanna see something?"

"Yes." They all answer.

"Oh, Friday." She sings.

"Yes, Lyla?"

"Would you be so kind as to send bird and metal man here?"

"Sending bird and metal man, now."

"Who?" Half of them ask.

"You shall see." Lyla smiles.

A minute later, Bucky and Sam nervously peak around the corner of the elevator to be scared by a waiting Lyla, right beside the doors.

"Bird. Metal man."

"Oh." The students sing excitedly.

"Why'd you call us?" Bucky backs up.

"Just wanted to show them all how you two act around me."

"Asshole." Sam states.

"Dick. I seriously can't believe you."

"You know it's true." He smirks and Bucky chuckles.

"Not one bit, motha fuck. He's a bigger dick than you."

Perfect timing, Pietro comes speeding in, continuing to excite the entire room.

"Are you kidding me?"

"Probably not." He shrugs. "What?"

"You wanna call each other babe." Bucky states.

Pietro and Lyla give each a quick look and sigh as their hearts race.

"What about you two?" Pietro smirks.

"What?" Bucky and Sam ask.

"We think, you want to call each other babe." Lyla continues.

"Ah, hell." Sam rolls his eyes.

"We should've known it would be turned on us." Bucky shakes his head.

"I don't hear you denying it." Pietro teases.

"No." They both states in monotone.

"Ah, well, alright." Lyla shrugs.

Her and Pietro look at each other for a few seconds, both with smug smirks on the faces and Bucky and Sam roll their eyes and wave them off as they get back into the elevator.

"Bye, pussies." Lyla waves.

"Fuck off."

She smiles and turns away as the doors close, seeing all the students very interested smiles.

"That was cool." A kid says.

"Team up on a bitch." MJ nods.

"That's the only time we team up." Pietro says.

"If someone messes with us, we mess with them." Lyla continues.

"Cute." A kid teases.

"Shall we do it to you?"

"Nope."

"Hmm."

"I'm leaving." Pietro states.

"Bye biatch."

"Bye, принцесса."

She smiles and he bumps into her as he steps into the elevator, her swinging her hand up to hit him in the back, making him laugh as the doors close.

"Asshole."

"You'd be cute together." MJ shrugs.

"I totally would mess with you but, you'd be better than me."

The bus leaves and Lyla waves them off while they wave back. She goes to walk back inside when she's sped inside, instead. Pietro takes her up a few flights of stairs until, they reach Tonys lab.

"Whoa." She grunts as he sets her down.

"Sorry." He chuckles.

"You're good." She smiles.

"And, I'm sorry about last night. We were being stupid and broke a most likely very expensive vase. I'm just sorry."

"It's alright." Lyla replies softly. "You don't have to apologize. I do want to know what was said in the argument."

"That doesn't matter." He shrugs.

"It does to me."

"I can't tell you." Pietro pleads. "Don't make me tell you."

"Okay." She stops him. "Okay. I won't. Don't worry."
