《A Twist Of Marvel || Infinity War》4. Shit
Advertisement
The car drive was lasting a bit longer than Naomi had anticipated. It was definitely luxurious and roomy- only the best for Tony Stark, she supposed. But Peter wasn't providing much conversation, probably due to Happy killing her vibe in the drivers seat. He had treated her suspiciously from the get-go, and Naomi suspected that he wasn't even thrilled to have Peter in the back seat with her.
Sighing from boredom, Naomi scrolled through her instagram feed once again. The fact that Marvel fan art was still showing up only fueled her conviction that this was all a prank, though a very well planned one. She kept waiting for Peter to yell "PRANKED" and have her sign some contract saying she wouldn't sue. Growing impatient, Naomi quickly searched into google, 'Tom Holland location.' It sure felt creepy, but all it told her was that he was currently filming for Avengers 4 in Georgia. Reading this, she frowned and glanced at Peter, who sat across from her-also on his phone. Thankfully her epic sunglasses kept the fact that she was looking at him subtle. However they clearly didn't do much, since apparently Peter felt her gaze and looked up at her.
"What?" He asked innocently.
"You're meant to be in Georgia. That's an awful long way just to prank me." Naomi said nonchalantly, watching for his reaction. The doubts that this wasn't a prank still remained in the back of her mind, but so far nothing that couldn't have been set up by a film crew had happened.
"Why would I be in Georgia?" Peter questioned, his puppy-dog confused eyes almost making Naomi 'aww.' What could she say, she was still a fan- Tom Holland or Peter Parker. Naomi simply shrugged in response, looking back to her phone suspiciously.

"Hey Peter, mind if I look something up on your phone?" Naomi asked, curious to see how far they had gone for this prank. It wasn't as if they could change the google search results. She actually felt fairly proud for coming up with this solution- it would hopefully force the hidden camera crew to come out... wherever they were. Peter immediately looked suspicious at her request, glancing over to Happy in the front seat. Following Peter's gaze, Naomi watched Happy shake his head, looking at them through the rearview mirror.
"Um sorry, I don't think so..." Peter trailed off, seemingly nervous about offending her. Of course, Naomi was a little put off at Happy's mistrust of her, but she simply couldn't resist the surge of maternal instincts that Peter's sad little face brought. She could see why Tony basically adopted him.
"Oh it's all right, it's just that some people," she lowered her shades to look at Happy, throwing him a passive-aggressive stare. "Don't trust me on the internet, apparently. But that's none of my business." Naomi slid her sunglasses back on, satisfied for now.
She didn't have to wait much longer, for soon the car pulled into a grassy clearing, and across the way Naomi got a perfect shot of the Avengers headquarters. The facility was huge, constructed out of glass and clean white paneling, stretching over a bright green grassy field. Needless to say, it was way out of proportion of a prank. Hell, it was out of proportion for a movie set. As Naomi swallowed anxiously, Happy pulled into a space reserved for Stark cars on the side of the main building. Across from her, Peter immediately perked up at the sight of the complex, no doubt anticipating meeting 'Mr. Stark' again.
Piling out of the car, Naomi stood still for a moment as she gazed at the compound, taking off her shades and blinking rapidly. "It's really cool, huh?" Peter appeared beside her, a giddy smile on his face, waiting for her reaction. Naomi looked at him, realizing for the first time that the boy next to her was actually 17 year old Peter Parker.
"Well...shit."
