Take On The World(An Marvel Fanfic)[Book 1]

Chapter 7

A month went by. Claire had been getting the hang of everything. She hadn't had an episode since that day at SHIELD. Everyone had been careful to not say those words around her. She still had nightmares and still slept in her father's room. Over the past couple of weeks, Claire had been looking at the pictures Peggy let her have and the memories of her life, before she taken, had slowly been coming back to her.

Claire was in her room, getting ready for school. She had continued to get teased for the clothes she was wearing, so her dad had taken her to get some more modern clothes. She wanted to wear something that represented her father, so she changed into a navy blue shirt that had a shield on it, ripped blue jeans, red boots, and a red jacket.

When she finished getting ready, she headed downstairs. She saw her father in the kitchen. "Morning Dad." She greeted.

"Good morning, Claire." Steve said.

"What's for breakfast?" Claire asked.

"French toast with bacon." Steve said. "Could you set the table. It's almost finished." Claire got plates and utensils out and got two glasses out, pouring orange juice in them. She set everything on the table. Steve filled the plates. They sat down and started to eat. "How are you this morning?" Steve asked.

"Good." Claire said. "What about you?"

"The same." Steve said. Claire nodded. They continued to eat. "Go finish getting ready for school and I'll clean up breakfast." Steve said. Claire went back up to her room. She combed her hair, picked up her backpack, and went back downstairs. "Ready to go?" Steve asked.

"Yep." Claire said. She followed her father out of the apartment complex and got on his bike. They rode to the high school.

"Have a good day at school, sweetheart." Steve said, stopping in front of it.

"Bye Dad." Claire said as she got off the bike and handed him the helmet. She walked into the school and went to her locker.

Later that afternoon, Claire made her way to the cafeteria. She got some lunch and sat at an empty table like she did everyday. Claire hadn't really made any friends since starting school. She mainly kept to herself. Just then, a girl sat next her. Claire recognized the girl from her English and Science class. Claire thought she remembered that her name was Sarah. "Hi." Sarah greeted her.

"Hey." Claire said.

"I'm Sarah." Sarah said.

"I know." said Claire.

"You're Claire, right?" Sarah asked. "We're in English and Science together."

"Yeah." Claire said.

"Why did you change the type of clothes you were wearing before?" Sarah asked.

"I was tired of being teased." Claire said.
