Harley Part 4

I am so sorry for how long this took. My draft got deleted and I wanted to get this out so it's incredibly rushed. I got a lot of requests for a part 4 so here you go. I promise I am working on any other requests. Thank you so much for all the reads and votes. I especially love all of your sweet comments. Thanks again and happy reading!

It was Tony who broke the silence. "There you are. Peter, I'd like you to meet the tour group. Tour group, this is my personal intern, Peter." Tony discreetly winked at the frozen teenager, letting him know what he knew.

Despite the fact Peter is a bumbling idiot and can't think up good excuses, he managed to this time. "Actually Mr. Stark, this is my class. I know these people. Hi." He gave a small wave to his peers.

Harley, Ned, and MJ all had giant smirks on there faces. They were all happy that Peter had proven his classmates wrong but Harley wanted to shine too and said "it's not fair that you get to skip school for work. I wanted to be here today."

Tony laughed at that and gave his newest son a fatherly pat on the shoulder. "I wish so too, Harles." Harley rolled his eyes at the nickname but didn't comment.

The teacher was the first non-Stark to recover from the shock and immediately launched into the whole 'you have to check in with the school before skipping for work and you can't lie about being sick and yeah it's cool to be Tony Stark's personal intern but that doesn't mean you can skip school to grab him coffees'. Ya know. The typical spiel. I'm sure everyone's heard it before.

Thankfully for everyone involved, Tony intervened. He stepped forward from his spot near Harley to place a comforting and almost possessive hand on Peter's shoulder, giving an unnoticeable smile to the nervous teen. "Thanks, teach, but that'll be all. It's my fault Peter's here so yell at me instead. Peter, Harley? Why don't you finish the tour for them while I have a little chat with your teacher? Thanks." With that he turned away from his 'interns' to the chemistry teacher.

Peter and Harley gave each other a glance before leading their shook classmates out of the lab and into the gym.

The tour went off without a hitch. Probably because everyone was still in shock at two of their classmates not lying about having an internship with Tony Stark. And not just an internship. Personally knowing Tony Stark.

The next day at school was different to say the least. For one, Flash was kissing up to them instead of bullying. And everyone else surrounded them trying to be friends. The only normal thing was Ned and MJ.

Those two turned out to be lifesavers. Ned would lead them away from the crowd while MJ screamed at the desperate students, preaching about being 'attention whores'.

Surprisingly (or unsurprisingly depending on your knowledge of MJ's personality) no teachers gave her a detention. Either they agreed with her or they were just afraid because of her connection to Tony Stark. Plus she was getting pretty close to Pepper Potts a.k.a. world renowned badass.

So they let her do pretty much whatever she wanted.

The attention got so bad that teachers just sat at their desk and let Peter and Harley answer questions, explain their jobs, and even teach the lessons. The two teenagers were not used to such positive recognition that their skin was almost always flushed a bright red in embarrassment. It still felt like a dream. This continued the entire week.

After that, teachers decided enough was enough and brought the dream-like reality back to reality. It was a major shock to the boys but they had never been ones for popularity so they didn't mind too much. It gave them a bit more normalcy or as much as they could get after the Stark Industries tour.

Years later, only a few weeks before graduation, the whole Tony Stark internship thing had almost been forgotten. People had moved on after two kids were found doing things in a closet.
