Learning to Love Her

Fifteen

YOUR POV

Steve hasn't left me alone. I've been sat in the common room for nearly an hour because he keeps asking me questions.

- Steve : So who's your favourite singer?

- y/n : Definitely Taylor Swift

- Steve : I'll have to listen to some of his music

- y/n : Her. Taylor Swift is a woman

- Steve : Oh sorry. How about your favourite actor?

- Pietro : Hello princessa

- y/n : I missed you

- Pietro : Steve

- Steve : Pietro

- y/n : Can we go out on a walk?

- Pietro : Yeah. Let's go get some shoes and coats on, it's cold outside and I don't want you getting ill

He doesn't want me getting ill. If I had my way, I'd spend so long with this guy that he'd get sick of me.

- y/n : Can I hold your hand?

- Pietro : You don't have to ask princessa

- y/n : I wanted to. I don't want to make you uncomfortable

- Pietro : You can't make me uncomfortable Y/n. If I had my way, you would be my girlfriend already

- y/n : So why am I not?

- Pietro : Wanda said I have to woo you. Prove that I am the better choice over Steve

- y/n : I'd choose you over Steve any day. He's a little old for me

- Pietro : Physically he's 34. That's only 8 years

- y/n : Mentally he's nearing 100. And he's not my type

- Pietro : And I am your type?

- y/n : Yeah. You know, I've never been in a relationship

- Pietro : That's fine

I genuinely thought that might scare him off. I have no clue what I'm doing and won't in the future, I'm relying on him to show me what to do.

- y/n : It also means that I've never had sex

- Pietro : That's okay. We'll go at your pace. We don't have to have sex straight away. I'm not here to use you for your body, I'm here because when I first saw you I thought you were very pretty and a really nice person

- y/n : You're going to have to watch what you're saying all the time or you'll have me wrapped around your little finger in no time

- Pietro : Let's find a cafe princessa. Let me treat you to a drink and snack

- y/n : I can't let you pay for my food and drink

- Pietro : I want to. Please?

- y/n : Fine

Internally I'm kicking my feet in the air, giggling and covering my face.

INCOMING VIDEO CALL

Maria 🕺

DECLINE ACCEPT

Yeah, I'm definitely not accepting that call because I know she's in the hospital. Does she really think I'd forget what happened yesterday?

- Pietro : What would you like to drink?

- y/n : Just a tea please

- Pietro : And to eat?
