Like Mother, Like Daughter 2: More Drama and Trauma!

7: Anchor

The last thing Yelena wanted was for everyone to know about her cancer. She didn’t want to deal with the, well, the everything that came with it. So, naturally, the whole school knew. The sympathetic looks did not stop. Everyone seemed to be walking on glass whenever she came by. Several people have asked if she was alright. She knew they meant well, but it was getting on her nerves. She was fine with the questions for the first 5 seconds, but that was mainly because it was Kate asking her.

So Yelena walked into school along with her siblings, and of course they were worried about her. They walked closely behind her, all waiting for something to happen. As soon as they got through the front doors, all heads turned to Yelena, making her feel very uncomfortable.

‘I need to find my girlfriend.’ Yelena thought.

She quickened her speed and made way to Kate. Yelena found her by her locker talking to Peter and MJ. Kate was facing away from her, but Peter and MJ saw her coming.

“Hey, Kate.” MJ said before nodding her head towards Yelena.

Kate turned just in time for Yelena to walk up to her and push her gently against the locker and kiss her.

“Wow.” Kate gasped once the kiss broke.

“Sorry, I just missed my girlfriend.” Yelena said as she blushed in embarrassment.

“Don’t be sorry, I get it.” Kate smiled back before kissing her again. “I like it when you call me ‘your girlfriend’.”

“Me too.”

MJ cleared her throat.

“Oh, sorry, MJ.” Kate said.

“Just making sure you two know you’re in public.”

“I- Uh- Well-” Kate struggled to speak.

Yelena came to the rescue and changed topics.

“So, do any of you know what the spring musical is going to be?”

“I think I heard Loki talking about it.” Peter answered.

“And?”

“I think he mentioned something about Tangled.”

“Hmm.” Yelena said, pretending to be in thought. “Kate Bishop as Repunzal. I can see that. But, Kate Bishop as a blonde? No, not really.”

“I can be a blonde!”

“Uh, no you can’t.” Yelena teased.

“Anyways,” MJ said, changing the subject as well. “Who do you think will play Flynn Rider?”

“It better not be fucking Bart.” Yelena growled.

“You have got to let that go.” Kate said.

“No.”

“Maybe Steven could play him.” Peter suggested.

“No, I think since he is an identical triplet, he would work better as one of the twins.” Kate said.

“Oh yeah. Who do you think would get Mother Gothel?”

“Not sure.”

“Ok, we’re going to leave you two love birds alone. We do have to get to class.” MJ said.

“Ok.” Peter replied as MJ grabbed his hand and pulled him away.

Kate and Yelena turned back to each other.

“How are you feeling?” Kate asked.

“As good as ever, especially now that I’m here with you.”
