Sorry I forgot to mention Lauren in the last chapter when Coulson was taking role call. Oops.

(IM SORRY THOR!)

Natasha's POV 

After going shopping with my new roommates (who weren't nearly as bad as I thought they would be), Stella and me went to explore around the school. There was an entire food court with familiar names like McDonald's, Starbucks, Nathan's, Dunkin Donuts, and Domino's. Students were packed into the booths spread across the huge room and the talking never ceased. 

Suddenly, I ran smack into some dude running across the cafeteria. "Hey, watch where you're-" I started to scold him but I stopped short when I saw how hot he was. His hair was short and had a sandy blonde look to it. But most of all, his bright blue eyes looked at me in such concern, it was hard to continue yelling at him. 

"I'm so sorry. I wasn't watching where I was going and I just ran into you!" He exclaimed talking extremely fast. "I'm Clint, by the way." 

I tucked a loose strand of my firey red hair behind my ear before replying, "Natasha. And it's fine."

Oh gosh Natasha. Over a boy? Really? I should be kicking his butt not opening up to him!

He just starred at me for a few seconds before he snapped out of his daze and answered. "Wait, you like the Hunger Games?" He asked in shock. 

I glanced down at my T-Shirt of the flaming Mockingjay symbol. "Yeah. The books were amazing." 

"She loves the books?" He mumbled under his breath assuming I couldn't hear him. Clint put his hand behind his head and started talk again. "Hey, I was wondering if, well I dunno maybe, if you wanted to, there's a movie theater here, and uh, well they're showing Mockingjay part 1. Do you uh, want to go together tomorrow night?" 

Did he just ask me out?

"Sure." I replied nonchalantly.

Did I just say yes?

"Okay, cool!" 

I can't get too close to him, even though he seemed like a great guy.

I have a secret, but he can't know.

No one can ever know. 

Sue's POV

"Hey Reed I was just wondering if you wanted to catch a movie tomorrow night." I spoke into the mirror. "Stupid." I had feelings for Reed, and practicing how I wanted him to take a hint was not easy. Lucky for me, I had the dorm to myself. Gwen and Gamora were out doing who knows what in the cafeteria. 

Anyways, I stood in front of the mirror trying countless possibilities of asking him out when I realized how stupid I had been. 

The guy has to ask the girl. 

That's how it's always been right? I didn't want to change it now. 

Maybe he would just take a hint and ask me out. 

Steve's POV 

"C'mon Steve. Why don't we get out and do something?" Bucky urged. "I hear they have a pretty sweet basketball court." I sighed at the thought of playing a sport. Even post-serum, I still wasn't good at them.

"Bucky you know I despise sports." He rolled his eyes and walked over to Sam Wilson, our roommate. I kept doodling in my notebook, but then eventually decided to take a walk and explore. 

After getting lost twice I ended up in the training areas. There were many fake dummies scattered around the gym and there were several bullet holes in the center of each of their chests. 

Whoever did this a great shot. 

I heard the clicking of heels againsted the waxed floor and spun around to face a girl about my age with short dark brown hair that bounced with her every step. At her side was a black hand gun, and from what I could see the barrel was empty. I stood shocked for a moment and didn't even realize she was talking. 

"Hello?" She asked in a thick British accent. 

"I'm sorry Miss; what did you say?" I replied my voice slightly higher then usual. 

"I said, what are you doing in here?" She answered on edge. 

"I was exploring, and then I may have gotten lost." I said with a cheesy smirk, but I didn't get even as much as a smile from her. Still, I did find her attractive. 

"Well, if you'll excuse me I'd like to get back to my training." I nodded respectfully and walked out of the room. My heart was beating 100 miles an hour and my stomach was filled with butterflies. 

That was interesting. 

Loki's POV

This midguardian life style was not something I found enjoyable. Everyone stared at me with strange looks, as if I was some lower life form as they were. Fear was in some of their eyes, others were filled with confusion. I could understand why. It wasn't everyday you see a God of such high power walking around your school. 

My green cape dragged behind me as I walked around the fields at the back of the school. There were several benches surrounding the grass but all remained empty but one. 

A girl about 16 sat alone on a bench engulfed in a book called Divergent. Her hair went down to the middle of her back and was blonde with black tips. The peculiar aspect about her was that even though it was raining slightly, the rain avoided her and didn't even touch her book. 

I sneakily walked up next to her. "Beautiful day today isn't it?" I asked sarcastically. She nearly jumped out of skin when she noticed me next to her. 

"God, you almost gave me a heart attack!" She exclaimed. When she looked at me I could finally get a closer look at her warm brown eyes. They shinned in the rain as it fell around her. 

"It must be a good book I suppose." 

"What? Oh, yeah. I've read this old thing a thousand times." She gestured to the damaged cover and yellowed pages. 

"I see." I paused considering what to ask next. "If I may, why is the rain not touching you, but it is drenching me and everything else?" 

"Uh yeah. I have these powers and they're elemental and mind reading. So I just will the rain not to hit me." She finished nonchalantly. With a wave of her hand the rain that was pouring down on my head stopped. Anywhere I moved it didn't touch me. 

"Impressive, my lady." Her face turned a deep red at my comment, and I decided not to acknowledge it. 

"I'm Lauren by the way." 

"Well, a pleasure to meet you Lauren." I spoke and walked back towards the school.

So guys, how was that? I'm guessing that this turned out to be way shorter then I thought it was considering this look me like two hours to write. I'm really sorry I took so long to update. Life happens ya know? I've been really busy trying to finish my other story Year 300 so please check that out if you can, I'll be moving on to the sequel of that soon! Thanks again for reading and expect more updates from me in the near future!
