The day came to a close as Nadia was struggling with her locker. She glanced back at the paper with her code on it and tried again. "06-09-19" She muttered, twisting the nob for the second time. She heard a click and opened the locker with a face of triumph.

As she put the remaining books away from her bag she went through the homework she had to complete. Math— which she was almost done with, Science paper to write, Her reading class had just begun a book called "The Outsiders" so she had to read two chapters for discussion, and American History homework— which she was going to go over to Peter's for help.

Speaking of him, Peter seemed to be very eager to get out of school. "Hey, are you walking home with me?" Nadia asked him, shoving the books she needed into her backpack. Peter looked at her and had a look of guilt on his face. "Well... after school, usually I do, you know... superhero stuff." He lowered his voice in the last part causing Nadia to laugh.

"What?" Peter looked at her confused as she shook her head. "You don't need to do, 'superhero stuff.'" She told him, mimicking his voice.

"I don't sound like that."

"I don't sound like that~"

Shutting her locker, Peter shrugged, "You could come with me if you want." But the redhead only sighed. "I have a lot of homework and some catching up to do, but I'll see you later when I come over. Have fun on your 'superhero stuff'" She began to walk away when Peter shouted, "I don't sound like that!"

Nadia set aside the last paper for science once she was done and stared proudly at her pile of homework. Everything was about done. She just had to go set over to Peter's, despite being exhausted. She yawned and grabbed her assignment before writing a note to Jane that she was at Peter's and should be back before she got home, but this was just in case.

Nadia strolled down the hallway and shuffled down the stairs, humming a small tune to herself as she made her way to Peter's door. She knocked and was greeted to a smiling Aunt May.

"Oh Nadia, come in honey!" She greeted, waving the young redhead inside before shutting the door. There was a crashing sound causing Nadia to whirl around. "What's going on in there?" Aunt May shouted to Peter who quickly responded back. "Uh... nothing! It's nothing!"

"Just go on in, oh my god!" Aunt May rushed to the oven before laughing, "Oh dear." She muttered, opened the oven door and letting out smoke. She began to fan it away and walked over to Peter's door, opened it. Nadia stood behind her and quickly shifted her eyes away from Peter when she saw he was shirtless.

"That turkey meatloaf recipe is a disaster. Let's go to dinner. Thai? Oh, Nadia, Jane called you're coming with us. Ned, you want Thai?"
