I wanna be a bottle blonde
I don't know why but I feel conned
I wanna be an idle teen
I wish I hadn't been so clean
Queens was a world's away from Los Angeles.
You wouldn't think the two cities would be all that different, but from the smells to the weather almost nothing was the same. Save for a couple of wealthy assholes. You could find those everywhere you went. She hated them all. Their snobbish attitude and the way they made problems disappear with money grated on her nerves. She hadn't wanted to move. Her mother insisted that it would be better this way and her father...
He was the reason she agreed.
However, she had to admit, a place that didn't know the name Black Cat made her purr with excitement.
Peter
Peter was exhausted.
He had spent the better part of the night patrolling and then doing his homework. Writing a paper on The Scarlet Letter was the last thing Peter wanted to do, but it was part of the deal he made with Aunt May. As long as he wasn't failing he could keep being Spider-man. It was hard, but crime didn't stop just because he needed sleep or had homework. Luckily, today should be a relatively easy one. He was charged with showing a new student around, which meant no morning classes. The tour shouldn't take long and Peter could take a nap until lunch.
"Peter? I would like to introduce you to Felicia Hardy," Principle Morita said, snapping Peter from his thoughts. He looked up and saw a mouse of a girl. She was short with long, wavy blond hair some of it falling on her forehead like bangs. She was wearing a pale pink sweater that seemed to make her even smaller with plain black leggings.
"I'm Peter Parker," he tried for a smile and stuck his hand out for her to shake.
"Felica Hardy-sorry you already knew that. You can just call me Felicia, I mean of course you would. Why would you call me by my first and last name? Sorry, I'm being verbose," she stammered. After some hesitation, Felicia gripped Peters hand a little too hard and let it go just as quickly.
"Uh it's fine," was all Peter could say. Awkward.
"Peter I trust you'll give Miss Hardy your full attention and answer every question she has?"
Peter straightened his back and looked over at his principle. "Yes, sir."
Morita smiled, "Then I'll leave you to it." With that, he spun around and walked back into his office.
Peter turned to Felicia, "And so begins our tour." When she didn't smile Peter pointed at a nearby water fountain. "This is the water fountain Flash Thompson rigged to spray my pants when I went to use it."
Her eyes widened, "Did he really?"
"Actually, he got someone else to it and laughed at me. He's quirky that way," Peter responded.
The corners of her lips turned upwards. "Interesting. Is the entire tour going to be like this?"
Peter grinned, he was thankful that she didn't seem to be so nervous anymore. For the first time ever he was thankful for Flash being an ass. "Oh it's only going to get more interesting from here, just wait until you see the locker room where Flash stole all of my clothes, leaving me in my underwear until my Aunt dropped some off."
