My Marvel Academia ( ALL SEASONS)

A new family (part 3)

-So... Can I ask you another question? –

- It's okay...

- Do you like him? –

- Huh? –

WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH HIM! BECAUSE HE ASKS SUCH DIRECT QUESTIONS LIKE THAT! Peter was right, this girl was pretty direct.

She looked at me like a beast, she didn't seem to have a shred of doubt in making such a statement. I looked away and continued to help with the turkey stuffing.

- Do you have a problem with me liking it? -

- Oh, so you admit it? -

I didn't know it, Peter is a great guy, I know it took a short time to know him, but still, there was something that made him different from others, he wasn't afraid of me, many people thought twice when trying to mess with a weirdo like me, my scarlet eyes scare anyone, but he has never seen me differently.
He looks into my eyes like I'm a normal girl, and maybe...just maybe if we had both met under different circumstances...we could have a different relationship.

- I don't know yet... but if there's one thing I'm sure of, it's that he... maybe special... for...

- Girls, sorry to interrupt, the potatoes are ready! Am I interrupting something?

You know...I think there is a reason why Uncle Ben said that I am the king of the annoying...

-Peter... YOU ARE AN IDIOT! –

My spidey sense vibrated in an instant, but by the time I saw it coming...one of the knives was already in my face...

While Wanda, MJ, and I were resolving our little dispute, Pietro was helping Aunt May downstairs.

-So Peter grew up in this neighborhood.

-That's right, his uncle and I raised him after his parents left him with us. –

- Your uncle? And where is he? –

-He...died a little over a year ago. –

-I...I'm sorry...Peter explained that he had lost someone but I didn't think it was recent. –

-Don't worry, in fact, he'd be happy to see you and your sister. –

- Why do you say that? –

- Peter didn't have...the best friendships in his life, so when he walked through that door with you...I never felt so happy in all my life, so if it's not too much to ask...please take care of Peter. –

- Don't worry...he's our friend...-

- Thank you. –

A couple of hours passed, the turkey was ready, the gratin in the oven, a well-decorated tree that shone like never before, I never thought I would see those 6 chairs in the dining room occupied again?

There was just one small detail that we all forgot...

-Hey... If they made the punch... right? –

...

-Pietro... for someone so fast, you took too long... -

Punch is almost essential at a Christmas party, and Aunt May loves punch.

-I'm sorry Aunt May...I think the three of us forgot to prepare it...-

-It's okay Peter, I'm sure we can do something. –

- I have something, I knew something could happen so I bought a box for us, it's in my apartment, so maybe Wanda and I can go get it. –

- Me?! –
