Avengers High School

Sixteen

The week of detention with Tony went by quickly. Usually, it would just be both of you throwing notes to each other under the teacher's detection. But at one point you had Clint in with you after he got caught sluffing.

By the time you were both finishing with detention Thanksgiving was just around the corner. And Tony being Tony decided a party was the best way to go to celebrate the holiday. But you quickly talked him out of it and he decided on a simple Friendsgiving instead.

Which is what you were now prepping for. Everyone would bring whatever food they wanted, not needing to be Thanksgiving themed. That was mostly because everything was being thrown together so last minute.

After preparing you and Tony went on your way to Clint's home. The group decided it was best to do it there because his parents were almost never home. You also needed to pick up Bruce and Peter along the way.

Once you picked them up you were finally on your way. While driving you watched the first snow come down, doing it's best to stick to the ground, most of it melting away.

"Snow is the worst," Bruce grumbled from the passenger seat.

"It's not too bad. At least in December, it's not," Peter added from beside you.

"I have no opinion on the matter, I just wish I didn't have to drive in it," Tony said.

Finally, you pulled up to the front of the house. The four of you carefully got out of the car, grabbing what you brought and doing your best to not slip on the wet ground.

Once to the door, Tony knocked with his foot, having no hands to do so. You sat for a moment silently until the door creaked open.

"Took you losers long enough," Natasha said, beckoning you inside. "Put the food wherever there's space."

Entering the kitchen you found almost every surface available covered. The assortment was very random, there were bowls of chips, pretzels, and popcorn. There were also pizza rolls, chicken nuggets and what looked to be tacos. You also spotted a veggie tray and right away knew Steve brought it.

You placed the mac and cheese you brought down. Peter placing the sodas he brought beside it. Immediately after you were dragged away by Carol to say hello to everyone. You were talking to Sam and Bucky when Clint stood up and interrupted.

"Alright," he said with a clap, "now that everyone is here," he said glancing over toward Tony, making everyone laugh, "we can eat! Now, let us eat the most amazing Friendsgiving meal in existence!"

There were various cheers and then everyone was up and heading toward the kitchen. Everyone piled up their paper plates with the random food that was brought. After the plates were loaded everyone sat around in the living room and began eating.

Multiple conversations were happening at once. The room was full of laughter, shouting and happy spirits. Slowly the food on plates disappeared and the talking died down.

"Who wants to share what they're thankful for?" Clint asked in a mocking tone.

"I'm very thankful for tacos," Scott said lovingly, holding up his last taco.

Right after speaking Thor jumped back onto his spot on the couch, causing the taco to fall to the floor. Scott gasped as he watched it fall, staring at it longingly after it splattered to the ground. Hope watch from across him and snorted.

"Oh, sorry Lang," Thor said, snugging himself between Scott and Bruce.

"Pick it up!" Clint cried.

"But-"

"I don't care! Pick it up, don't just leave it!"

Scott begrudgingly got down on the floor and began picking up the crushed taco.
