I'm so sorry that my updates are...chodey right now. I was at six flags all day yesterday and today is my first day of school. I don't have much free time. But I'am posting this at 6:30 in the morning so...atleast I'm thinking about you guys! :)

_____________________________________________________________________________

Weeks passed by in school and he said nothing to me, so I just continued being...friendless. It wasn't like all the movies where you met someone who would become your best friend. No in reality, no one wanted to talk to me, they even went out of their way to avoid me. I'm shocked Jr nor his friends had spread rumors about me being with Steve. I walked out of school in a bad mood as per usual, doing what I'm supposed to and made my way to the park. I saw Tony there. Which was weird considering he was supposed to be working. I smiled and ran towards him. Seeing my family was always the highlight of my day.

"What's up?" I asked when I get near him. He pulled me into a hug.

"You're hopefully gonna love me!"

"Uhm...why?" I asked.

"So do you remember about a week ago when you said you needed to start applying for colleges and you said  that you need to take the SAT's blah blah blah?" I nodded.

"Well I got you an application for NYU, You're taking the SAT's on October 4th, We need to go back to school to get your fitting for your cap and gown and then we need to go shopping because your senior portraits are tomorrow, and I'm gonna get some 'family' photos, and I'm having Pepper go get Michaela as we speak. Plus! Your senior shirts that you said you wanted because you thought it would be cool, is on back order and will be here in a week." I squealed like a little girl and hugged him so tight I'm almost positive he couldn't breath.

"Ok ok, now for the unfun part, going back to school." I started pout as we made our way back across the street. No one was around...well except for Jr and his friends, but I stopped caring about a week ago about him. Not really...We walked right passed them and I didn't even look back.

"So what are you gonna get for the senior portraits part?" Tony asked.

"What am I supposed to get? I mean I know you're supposed to get pictures that represent you so could I get pictures with Toke...or a piano! Cause ya know you caught me playing." I  said.

Tony said he was going out with Pepper, and no one else was there, so I went over to the piano. Though I wasn't good at much, Piano was something that I had loved since I was a little kid. The keys called out to my fingers. I'm definetly not a prodegy, but I guess I was pretty good. I caught myself starting to play 'I won't give up.' By Jason Mraz, now I know I'm an ok singer, and by that I mean I can sing. My grandmother has a beautiful voice apparently, and I got it from her. So I was singing it. I got so lost in doing something that I loved, that I didn't realize and Tony and Pepper had come back until there was clapping behind me.

Needless to say Tony believes that I have a talent.

We had stopped at the front desk by then, waiting for the lady to come back.

"Well for your portraits you should probably get a dress, but nothing too fancy, and for the other pictures we'll find you some shorts or something. This is gonna sound weird, but since Michaela stayed the week, I've felt close to her also, so I want her to be in some of the pictures. So do you know her size?"

"Of course! She's basically the same size as me! Thats why we always wear eachothers clothes." He rolled his eyes and smiled. The women come back with a warm smile.

"Go down the hall to room A23, and you just walk in!" We said thankyou and headed that way. After a very boring fitting we headed to the mall. And when Pepper wasn't there it went alot faster. I got a off the shoulder light pink dress, that had beading on the shoulder. It went down to a black skirt, and needless to say it was beautiful. Then it was off to get some clothes for the other pictures. I grabbed clothes for Michaela and I and we paid and left. We talked about college the entire time, and what it was like when he was in college. He was becoming not only like my dad, but my best friend. After a fulfilled day we got back to the loft to see Michaela sitting with everyone.

"MICKEY!"

"SNICKERDOODLE!" We ran into eachothers arms and fell over, Toke came over and plopped down on my tummy wanting some attention. I giggled and pet her while we all made small talk about the day. Every departed and Michaela and I were in my room.

"So have you talked to JRRR recently?" I threw a pillow at her.

"No, I wish. But he won't talk to me." I started to pout. She giggled.

"He's obviously trying to keep you interested. And it's definetly working!" I rolled my eyes at her.

"I'm going to bed on that note!" I turned over and closed my eyes.

Was he really ignoring me so I stayed stuck on him?

The next day came and went before I knew what was happening. We got my senior portraits. In my cap and gown, and then of my in the dress. Some of me and Toke, others of my playing the piano, and some of me walking barefoot in the creek at the park. Basically we got me when I was at my happiest. Then it was time for the other pictures...which was interesting. Because we started playing football...and then there was the pictures of us wrestling, and playing in the park, and some group pictures of us. There was on particular one that made me laugh. Pepper was on Tonys back, Natasha on Clints. Bruce was on Steves. Michaeal on Lokis shoulders, and I on Thors. Michaela and I were flexing our mucles. one by our ears and one pointing out. Opposite ways of course. I don't know why that picture was the best to me, but it was probably because of the story behind it.

We were standing there waiting for the photographer to tell us what to do next.

"Ok..I want this picture to look like you guys look all the time." Me and Michaela looked at eachother and smiled.

"Flex?" She asked. I nodded eagerly.

"I WANT PEPPER ON MY BACK! It makes me look strong!" Tony said! We all laughed, as he picked up Pepper.

"Then I get Natasha on my back!" Clint yelled.

"Wait!" Bruce yelled. We all looked at him, "Theres four girls...and six guys..."

"So...you can always get on Steves back! I'm sure he won't mind being close to you." Michaela joked. It took some convicning, but they finally agreed. Bruce slowly climbed on, acting as if he was going to die if he made a wrong move. He had a sour look on his face.

"So now that just leaves you two." Tony said looking at us.

"We could always stand in front of the gods! It'll make our muscles look bigger!" I said.

"Now now little one, you don't need my amazing muscles. They would be far to much for you to handle." Thor said while flexing.

"Wait! My I have an idea with my genius mind!" Tony yelled far to over dramitic, he scared Pepper! We all just rolled our eyes, "Ok, Loki put Michaela on your shoulders."

"Uhm, I don't know if thats such a good idea, I mean he's tall and ahh!" Loki picked her up, and he gripped onto his ears when she was up there. After a few minutes of calming her down she calmed down and he moved to me.

"Now Thor, put Marissa on your shoulders!"

"Ok I don't really like heights all that- Alright you're not gonna listen to me thats cool to." I said as I was placed on his shoulders. We went from there. All in all the day was very succesful.

"Now you can finally change your profile picture!" Tony cheered. I looked at him.

"Did you happen to do all of this for that specific reason?" I asked him. He cleared his throat and mumbled something incoherent.

"What was that Tony?" Clint asked with a smirk on his face.

"I said that...that... We should get some food! What does everyone want?" He changed the subject but I dropped it. To make him happy I changed my profile picture. What made him smile even more was that Michaela did too.

"You two don't realize how happy you've made me!" Tony gushed. Everyone giggled.

"Now! What does everyone want to eat?"

"We could always go to the small chinese restraunt down the street." Natasha thought allowed. We all agreed and headed down there. And with my luck, who happened to be there? That's right. Jr was, with what looked like his family.

'Just ignore him Marissa.' I kept repeating in my head. Until his family came over to our table...
