The Avengers College AU Part 3

"I'm happy for Y/N. Now we have a good leader." Tony said, making sure to rub salt in Steve's wound, who was clearly upset by the result. The entire group sat together, having breakfast in the cafeteria. "Now everything is going to be alright."

"Thanks..." Y/N replied, a little taken aback by Tony's compliment — or rather, his thinly veiled insult toward the blonde. "As the leader, I have the responsibility to take care of all of you. Make sure that if there's ever something, even if it's minor, you come to me."

They continued chatting while eating their breakfast. Soon enough, time was up and the lessons were about to begin. As they walked, Y/N noticed Steve lagging behind, looking noticeably upset. Wanting to clear the air, Lucky Charm slowed his pace until they were walking side by side at the back of the group.

"Everything alright, Steve?" Y/N asked softly.

"I'm fine." Steve replied, though his tone was sharp and annoyed. "Let's just get to our lessons."

Without waiting for a response, he quickened his pace, leaving the new leader behind with a worried look. As the new leader, the last thing Y/N wanted was to start off with bad blood in the team. He made a mental note to think of a way to fix the situation.

They were sitting in Superhero History, a class where first-years learned about the legends who had set the bar as heroes. The room was filled with new recruits, all quietly listening as the teacher paced at the front, giving his lesson.

Y/N sat near the back, flanked by Pietro on one side and Tony on the other. As he tried to focus, he felt a light poke against his back. Turning slightly, he spotted Bobby Drake leaning forward, discreetly handing him a folded piece of paper.

Before Y/N could even ask. "What's th—" Pietro snatched the note from his hands, curiosity getting the better of him.

"Hey!" Y/N hissed, keeping his voice low to avoid drawing attention.

Pietro unfolded the note, his eyes lighting up as he read it. "Cool! You got invited to a party!?" He whispered, excitement practically bubbling in his voice.

Wanda, sitting nearby, shot her brother a sharp glare. "We're in class." She scolded before turning her attention back to the lesson. Pietro just shrugged, unbothered.

Y/N reached over and snatched the note back, scanning the paper for himself. Sure enough, Pietro hadn't lied — it was an invitation to a party, happening tomorrow at 9 PM, at a house just outside of campus.

Curious, Y/N turned back toward Bobby and whispered. "Why are you inviting me?"

Tony, overhearing the exchange, perked up, now fully interested.

"Every leader gets invited, no strings attached." Bobby explained casually. "You're allowed to bring two guests."

"Dibs!" Pietro blurted out, far too loudly for a classroom. Heads turned, and the nearby students glared at him for the disruption.

Before Y/N could even process the offer, Tony chimed in smoothly. "Me too."

Y/N sighed, glancing at the two of them, who were already acting like his plus-ones had been officially decided.

"Can't I decide who to bring?" He mumbled.

"Why? Who else do you want to bring?" Tony asked, cocking an eyebrow.

Y/N paused for a moment, glancing back toward the front of the classroom. "Never mind."

Both Pietro and Tony exchanged smug looks, satisfied that the spot was locked in — a party was on the horizon, and they were already set to be part of it.
