Artemis's Pov

"Tony ah let go." I whined loudly starting to feel the shy and nervous feeling enter through me fast. This Monday morning I wasn't expecting to be dragged across the school campus with Tony's deep grip on my wrist that he wasn't gonna let go soon.

While Steve was just following along behind us shaking his head his blue eyes showing amusement, but as well deep concern. "No I won't let go till you tell me who exactly is bullying you." I puffed my cheeks out roughly, just wanting to hide away for once looking at Tony's concerned brown eyes, his gaze had soften when he noticed his tone and grown deeply.

"Artemis we just wanna make sure you are okay." He told me softly using his free hand to brush away my curls from falling in my face to allow me to look at him even more.

"I-I just don't want it to get worst. " I whispered not really knowing what to say at first. I looked back over at Steve who put his arm around me looking down at me concerned some more.

"Its not gonna get worst I promise, bullying isn't right at all, and it doesn't help that they are bullying you for a stupid reason." I chewed at my lower lip, before sighing defeated knowing they were speaking the absolute truth.

"You notice that as soon as we got here, all everyone has done is stare at us." Tony joked slowly pinching my cheeks roughly I released a loud whine gasping when I started laughing.

"Yeah." I chuckled quickly throwing Tony into a deep hug which he returned smiling kissing the top of my head.

"I want you to have a good day at school alright? Also if I hear that you and Peter skipped again." I let a loud laugh out and looked up at Tony my heart swelling with happiness and just a bunch of love for him.

"Won't happen again sir." I joked feeling Steve ruffle up my hair chuckling and Tony just gave me that famous Stark look as he kissed my cheeks, but in my stomach I felt like this was gonna be a long day, and in fact me and Peter were gonna ditch maybe just one more small time.

"So do you find it strange that we are ditching our last class of the day to get ice cream." I shifted my gaze away from the large window in the ice cream parlor to focus on Peter who was eating his ice cream but watching me closely.

"Shhh no one has to know Peter, you just get nervous quickly and it gives it away." I giggled the enhanced taste of strawberry ice cream all across my tongue, I was in heaven and bliss.

"I can't help it." Peter quickly squeaked out flashing me a huge pout. "I'm not good at lying." He admitted shyly locking eyes with me.

"Well good thing you are friends with me, I'm pretty good at keeping a straight face." I chuckled watching Peter roll his eyes slowly amused.

"Oh yeah? Tell that to every one finding out about the bullying." He released a tiny laugh and I gasped. "Oh shut up that was totally your fault!" I exclaimed through my laughter watching Peter laugh shaking his head.

"Not my fault it was Bucky's for calling out Friday." I handed Peter a napkin chuckling but I trained my eyes to focus on a figure that was sitting in the small ice parlor that's strange I thought arching my eyebrow.

That's the same guy who was walking on the other side, of the sidewalk about two hours ago when me and Peter first ditched today expect he completely changed his clothes.

My little sense of danger was going off because he was watching me and Peter closely, but it felt like he was focusing on me a lot.

"Hey Peter wanna go to the park for a little bit." I suggested to him watching as he looked at me starting to whine.

"I'm not done with my ice cream. " I stood up picking up my backpack and chuckled helping Peter up handing him his cup with his scoops of ice cream.

"Well you can finish it on the way there." I laughed and started leading the way out the door opening the door for Peter slightly ignoring him rambling for just a minute to glance back at the male in all black when his eyes locked into mine they were Ice cold with a glare, and a very sinister gaze made me shiver.

The door to the ice parlor shut and I was shaking away the feeling of unease Peter would joke around and say it's spider sense which usually would make me laugh but it didn't not today.

I gave Peter a soft smile when he threw his arm around me bringing me in for a small hug which I returned.

Glancing over my shoulder one last time to see just to my knowledge, the man was leaving the ice cream polar and following us, but blended into the crowd so I couldn't see exactly were he was. There goes the feeling I thought with a small frown.
