Harley POV

"y-yeah I am, nice to meet you H-Harley." He said blush growing with my smirk. Looking him up and down I smirked more, he had warm brown eyes, smooth skin, brown fluffy hair that had the slightest curl to it; he was perfect.

After helping him up, I whispered in his ear 'I'll find you later' pulling away I winked and walked back to Cassie, Morgan and Shuri. Cooper, Ariel and Lila reluctantly trailed behind, the scraping of Lila's sneakers almost drowning out the low whispers as we settled to continue the game.

Peter POV

Holding Nate closer to my chest I felt a tug causing me to stumble after leaving the room. "I don't know what the hell that was back there Parker but you better watch out 'cause I will make your life hell if you mess up my chances at becoming Tony's intern." Flash snapped at me glaring at me.

After nodding I had hidden within the middle of the group as we entered the written part of the contest.

"Good morning Midtown High," A man with balding salt and pepper hair starts off, eyes gleaming with excitement, "for the written portion of your contest, you will be given a test we use on interns applying from college. This will test your skill range and (street) smarts. Here to Proctor, this test is renowned scientist Doctor Bruce Banner." He ended clapping loudly. The chatter erupted and my ears started ringing due to the sudden increase in noise. Nate snuggled closer gripping my loose science pun shirt for comfort. MJ rested a hand from my right to ground me, while Ned did the same on the left. Doctor Banner walked in smiling.

During the test, I found all the problems to be rather easy. Doctor Banner said that college students often struggled with this, but I can not see why. I could easily calculate 5(2x)^2+3.25(y)=2.3867358, the answers were y=.663 and x=.1077. This was questions I learned the answers to in fifth grade!

When the test ended we were shown to our rooms to unpack and have free time before dinner. Nate was still clingy and I knew it would most likely last the rest of the trip. Sighing I gathered a book, my phone, headphones, Raza's leash (there were stares but no comments yet about the dog), and turned on KAREN. KAREN and I began discussing upcoming homework and tests while her main system watched over Lucy for me. We wandered the halls of the floor our class was given. We soon bumped into a woman with brown hair that had the slightest wave to it and tired brown eyes. She looked quite similar to Lila and I instantly knew who she was. Cocking my head to the side I said, "Hello, Mrs Barton, can I help you?" she seemed surprised I knew who she was.

"Uh, yes, I was just looking for Nathaniel, he wondered off earlier and I haven't seen him." looking at the boy at my hip I raised my eyebrow. He innocently smiled. Muttering about lying evil children (a thing my pack was quite used to). I said, "I knew your kids from the soul stone planet, we were part of the same pack. He is being clingy, I think, due to that." laughing with surprise she watched as Nate clung to my shirt, pulling at it to try to climb further.

"Well, as long as he is safe, Laura Barton." she stuck her hand out to shake.

"Peter Parker and this is Raza, my service dog, and KAREN, my demonic AI who forces me to take care of myself," I said grabbing the outstretched hand. She seemed surprised that I had a service dog, but seemed to recognize signs of PTSD. KAREN spoke next "it is so nice to meet you, Mrs Laura, Peter designed me to protect his pack members if ever the need arose." She turned to me, "Peter, Lucy is about to have dinner then go to bed, shall I give her your goodnight message and activate protocol Mama Bear? Aunt May has not yet returned home." nodding my head I smiled at Laura. Protocol Mama Bear sent a version of KAREN who looked and acted like an adult mother to camouflage our family if Aunt May was out late. after explaining that and a few key pieces of my and Lucy's past, she gave me her number and promised to keep in touch. She had left me in charge of Nate too.
