It was a normal day for Astrid Winston, not much has happened lately outside of her on a caffeine kick. She had nightmares again, last night. That was fun. Not. She's drank enough caffeine to probably last her for three days of being awake, but as long as she doesn't crash that should be good. She knows how Peter would say when he finds out of how much caffeine she's drank in the past half an hour. She likes it in a way, because it keeps her awake. Translation she doesn't have nightmares. Nightmares aren't good for her, then again they're not good for anyone.
She takes a deep breath as she tries to calm down a little as she's getting a little jittery from the caffeine that she's loaded on. She also doesn't want to look too suspicious at the same time. She mainly doesn't want to get too suspicious and draw attention from Peter. Who is luckily not looking at her as she gulps as she puts her hands into her hoodie as she tries to hide her jittery hands. But what doesn't help is her bouncing her knee which is getting more suspicious by the second. She knows that she's gonna get caught in the next couple minutes. Also the fact that her right eye is twitching as she's about to bounce off the walls but she tries to contain herself.
She tries to listen to the teacher talking but she can't focus, let alone she's trying not to bounce off the walls, it's not really working. She mentally curses herself when she feels Peter's eyes gazing at her as she can feel his brown eyes locked on her. It was at that moment that Astrid knew that she was caught. She moves her tongue around in her mouth, as she glances at Peter subtly and he raised an eyebrow at her, as he knows about her caffeine kick that she's currently going through.
She saw him writing something down on a piece of paper as she squints her eyes to figure out what he's writing, but she couldn't tell. Then he slid it towards her as they sit next to each other in their classes. She grabbed the piece of paper and read the words that were written on it. I know what's up? It took her one brain cell to figure out what the heck he was talking about. She got a pen and wrote on the paper right underneath of what he said. I'm fine, just couldn't sleep last night. She slid the piece of paper back to him and he looked at it when the teacher wasn't looking in their direction. He grabbed his pen and wrote something on it before he slid the paper back to her. She looked at it as it said, let me guess nightmares. She says as it was the obvious answer as they glanced at each other, before she nodded her head at him confirming.
He honestly feels bad for her to say the least. This is the third day of her nightmares that haunt her in her sleep. She can't go to Bucky at the moment, because he's on a mission with the remaining Avengers so that's out of the option. Bucky knows Astrid more than anyone because they have shared HYDRA experiences, that and Bucky is somewhat of an Uncle figure to her. They're really close and they love each other. Peter knows that no one should go through all of the crazy shit that Astrid has been through. There is nothing that he can do beside be that friend that cares about her wellbeing.
By the God's grace the bell rang meaning it was the end of school, Astrid put her stuff into her backpack. Her and Peter walked out of the classroom as they walked towards Peter's locker so he could get his stuff. "What you doin after school?" Peter asks her as he grabbed his stuff then he closed his locker.
"Nothin much, got to clean." Astrid says as Peter gave her a small smile which made Astrid shake her head at him. "Sounds fun." He says sarcastically to her which made her to playfully hit his shoulder as he winced a little. He forgot how hard she hits, as she has a good arm. "Ow." He says as he gives her a small glare. "You're an idiot Parker, don't forget that."
He looked at her like she offended him, which she definitely did that's for sure. "I am not an idiot." He says as she gave him a look. "Are too, bye loser." "Stop bullying me Mae." He says to her which makes her give him a mischievous grin on her face. He shook his head before going in his own direction, as he's gonna go find something to do, as he's Spider-Man. He's gonna go find that Dominican lady who bought him a churro for him helping her.
Astrid shakes her head at her best friend before she leaves school and heads to the foster home where she's at. She listens to music as she's walking to the foster home because it's not that far from it. She listens to a Skillet song as it's called 'Feel Invincible', it's one of her favorite songs from the band.
After she's done with her chores at the foster home, she does her night routine as she doesn't sleep, so she grabs her computer and watch a murder documentary.
