1167 Words
"So...you'll take the train?"
"Yes..."
You two were standing at the front of the school, today has been long enough, it's time to separate.
"I'm taking a taxi, I'll see you tomorrow." You said, he nodded and walked away. You get in the car, Happy is still the driver as always.
"Who's that?" He asked you, even though he knew who exactly Peter is.
"I'm about to find out." You said as you look at your watch, you planned to look at the file in your room.
You arrived at the new Avengers facility, but today is different. People look concerned when they look at you, it is not just your problem if people find out you are Tony's daughter, but it's theirs too.
You avoided the gazed and made your way back to the living room.
You saw only Bucky there.
You turned to look at each other, and it was very awkward, you were scared of him, and he'a not the kind of person who will ask you how' school.
"How's school."
Or maybe he is.
"Did Cap told you to say that?"
"Yes." He replied with a blank face.
"It's was alright, thanks." You said before walked to the refrigerator, opened up to grab some milk.
You tried to open, but one of the girl's struggles is you can open it so easy when you're alone, but if there are people nearby, your hands go useless.
You put the bottle down, looked around, no one was there, you bet they went to the gym. So you look at Bucky, whose arm is iron.
"Uh... can you open this for me?" You asked with a bitter laugh, you didn't know why you laughed.
He looked at you so still, but then nodded, so you handed him a milk bottle.
It was a bad idea and deep down you knew it, his arm is metal, he can crush people's neck with it so he accidentally crushed and torn your milk bottle to pieces, milk splashed everywhere on you two.
"..." You.
"..." Bucky.
No milk for today then.
Sam and Thor walked in, they looked at you and Bucky that was still not moving.
"What happened here, humans?" Thor asked.
"I...asked him to open my milk...." You said.
Sam burst out laughing again, it seems like he's so happy when Bucky's not so happy.
"You need to wash that off, milk can so stink." Thor grabbed a tissue and tried to helped you, no one helped poor Bucky, so he just went to the toilet quietly on his own.
"Could you be more gentle? God...you guys are too strong for everything." You complained because Thor kept rubbing your face hard with the tissue.
"Your dad wanted to see you by the way," Thor said, still trying to rip your face off.
"Alright, alright." You walked away and headed upstairs to your dad's lab.
"(Y/n), we need to talk." He told you, just as soon as he saw you.
"Yeah?" Something's not right, you sensed his stress.
"The percentage of the risk if they'll found out who you are, that we set Friday to look after, just got 30%."
"..." You didn't reply, you just stared at him.
"And I know this is going to be hard for you, but you cannot go to school anymore."
"What?" You asked with a smile, thinking he was joking.
"Yes, at least for now." Your smile disappeared once you realized he was dead serious.
"Why don't...we just tell them." You said something you've been waiting to say for a long time.
"...What?" He shook his head in confusion
.
"I don't know if you know this, but I've been tired of hiding who I am. Every time they asked me how's my dad? How's my mum? I always have to lie." You said with a bitter face.
"Yes, you have to lie. You can't let no one know." He said, dropped his tools on the table and stepped closer to you.
"Even you tell them, that you're Iron man." You emphasized.
"Yes, because I can protect myself!" He started to get angry.
"Then teach me how to fight! Not hide!" You yelled at him, and the whole room went so quiet.
After a while, he continued with a sad voice. "I'm trying to keep you safe here."
"Fine... but I'm coming to school anyway, my friends are their dad, my life is there."
Tony stark stared at you, and he said something so cold.
"Guard, take her to her room, don't let her escape."
.

You banged on your own bedroom door, begging to come out.
"OPEN THE DOOR!"
You yelled yet nothing happened, you jumped on the bed and threw your pillows around.
"GREAT NOW YOU LOCK ME RIGHT, IRON MAN, WHAT A DAD." You used your sarcasm yet there's no reply.
You weren't crying or mad, or being dramatic that he locked you up, since you are a done-of-life kind of girl you just got sick and tired. You know he'd let you out in the morning with a bunch of money as an apology anyway, this kind of situation happened before.
But then you realized you haven't done one thing so important.
"(N/n.)" You called out your only friend.
"Yes?" Her voice echoed the room.
"I want to see shield's secret file about Peter." You said, got up from the bed.
"Sure, (Y/n). How would you like me to show it?"
"On the walls." You said excitingly.
The hologram light the room up, as (N/n) speak.
"Peter Benjamin Parker is a 16 years old student, who studies at midtown high school, Newyork. He lost both his parents in an accident and now living with his Aunt, May Reilly Parker Jameson.
Peter was recruited by Tony Stark to help him capture Bucky barns, in return, Tony gave him a new suit with more functions, after then Peter Parker is technically an Avengers."
"Hold up..." Your jaw dropped.
"His ability is Genius-level intellect, Superhuman strength, speed, and agility, Ability to cling to most surfaces, Precognitive Spider-sense, and more. He called himself Spider-man."
"Hold the having s*x up." You said, your eyes were wide gazing at the video of Spider-man in youtube on your walls. "It's all makes sense, Dad didn't send anyone to look after me because Peter was there."
You drew your fingers in the air to watch another video, Spider-man jumped off the building and shoot spider web and swing around.
You sat down, never been more shook in your life, the nerdy guy at school with that crazy cute kind of smile is this red tight superhero.
Suddenly an idea came up.
"(N/n.), transpose your self in my watch right now." You said.
"Are we going out? Aren't you grounded?"
You grabbed the science toys you made and put them in your bag, then put on one hoodie and said.
"No one can ground me, and we are visiting Peter Parker."
You smiled.
