Ms. Marvel & Nova in "Don't Panic! No, not yet!"

Chapter 1

Notes: Yes, the title's a lyric from Fall Out Boy's "Miss Missing You". So I'm going to pretend that's the theme song of this.

Gonna make this a short fic of Ms. Marvel x Nova. I haven't done fanfiction in a seriously long time, but I got curious with seeing what would happen if I attempted to make one again. Also, please forgive me for any accuracy mistakes (storywise, canonwise and OoCness) because I'm just now trying to get up to speed on everything comics.

Disclaimer: (Dang it's been a while since I did this) I obviously don't own any of the Marvel characters, not Ms. Marvel or Nova or Spidey or the Avengers and other superheroes mentioned. I don't own Fall Out Boy's song either. But I love them and that's enough for me.

Anyway, hope you enjoy reading!

Ms. Marvel

The last thing Kamala Khan, secretly Ms. Marvel, expected to see during her class' fieldtrip to the ironically new Avengers Museum was a certain space traveling teen hero without the helmet. She'd seen Nova without it numerous times before and he even introduced himself as Sam to her personally. Ever since Ms. Marvel, Nova and Spiderman joined and left the Avengers, the three became close. They eventually started out their own team, The Champions, with the addition of the teen genius, Hulk, Vision's cool daughter, Viv and a younger Cyclops.

It was all really fun and they've already had their first few serious missions, as she liked to call it in her head. It was more than just games and wasn't just for kicks though, she knew that. Superhero-ing is a lot more work, stress and responsibility than it looked even with everything she knew from writing fanfiction. She was well aware of the things she'd have to take care of and take seriously, one of them being her secret identity.

Even after everything that's one of the rules she'd kept with herself and she guarded with her life. It was awkward and intense the first time she thought she was pressured to reveal her identity, with the very same Nova who just assumed it as a great idea to "start over". It had been a mess and would've made things harder for them because he hadn't known how protective and guarded she was. So now seeing him across the room, arms crossed and frowning at a replica of Thor's hammer, made her stomach jolt and she ducked behind her best friend Bruno who had been talking to his girlfriend.

"What?" Bruno asked because Kamala had freaked, mumbled "Just a sec, Mike" and hauled him behind a pillar next to a life sized Iron Man, all while using his tall frame to shield her from view. Though Sam had already moved on with the crowd with a little girl holding his hand.

"It's Nova!" she hissed.

Bruno raised an eyebrow and looked at a part of the exhibit that had photos taken during one of the Avenger's battles. One of the pictures had Nova zooming, all blue and light, across the frame and blocking part of Ms. Marvel from the shot.

"Yeah, it's a really good shot of him. Shutter speed and aperture tricks. Dang, it captured that blue light thing pretty well. Sorry it covered you though." Bruno said, squinting his eyes and studying the picture.

"What? No!" Kamala pulled him by the sleeve. "He's here, like legit here!"

"Whoa." Bruno looked around. "Where?"

"He's right-"it then occurred to Kamala that giving out Nova's identity to her best friend wasn't fair of her and closed her yap. "I mean, I can't tell you but he's here alright."

"What?" Bruno said slightly disappointed but knew not to argue. "Okay, fine. And so what if he's here?"

They were starting to look suspicious and stalkery because as Bruno was talking Kamala started to walk and pull him around, following Sam while trying to not seem like she's following Sam.
