A Part Of It (Avengers)

Chapter 45

"I don't really know, taking things slow, we are definitely not together but I guess we are a bit more than friends." he said explaining and I nodded, it made sense,

"I see, I see. I won't bug you about it don't worry, I am just here if needed. Always." I tell him and he just smiled thankfully,

"Anyway, what's wrong for you to beat the hell out of this poor bag?" he asked and I couldn't help but growl a bit, and shake my head,

"Peter happened." I told him and immediately he looked protective,

"Don't go all Cap on him, he didn't do it intentionally I guess. I mean we only talked a couple of times, and when I arrived I texted him and got no reply. Granted it was 3 am but still. And today well I went to his school to see him, surprise him because as off this morning I still had no answer from him, on me coming back." I tell him a sigh escaping my lips, he just looked at me, in a 'go on' way so I took a deep breath,

"When I got there he was excited to see me and so was I. Until the moment I asked him to come back here to spend time and so I could tell him everything that happened. I mean he's supposed to be my boyfriend so after so long without seeing him, I would love to spend time with him, and I thought he would too." I said, starting to get a bit sad, the anger slowly leaving to let the sadness take over,

"And he actually turned me down, saying he has this big decathlon thingy next week that he really needs to attend to and he really needed to study with Ned. Oh but don't worry 'we'll talk tonight'." I said mimicking his voice, and Steve let out a dry chuckle,

"By the way I hope you're not doing anything next week." I tell him and he shakes his head no,

"No why?" he asked,

"Well, we are all going back to Asgard." I told him, earning a confused look on his face,

"We... are?" he said and I just laughed,

"Yeah, because I am going to be crowned Princess of Asgard and all the 9 realms." I tell him in all seriousness like it was no big deal, and he just stared at me with wide eyes,

"I was supposed to become the Queen of Asgard but I talked with Odin, which also is my uncle, since my mom was Queen of Asgard and she was his big sister. I told him how much I loved Earth and actually as his Queen he had to accept, since I do have way more powers than him." I shrugged, he looked like a lost puppy, I know I dropped it on him, but I wanted to go straight to the point,

"Wow, Mia, that's amazing!" he tells me bringing me in a hug,

"Oh over there apparently my name is Mahalia. But please go on and call me Mia, because over there everyone calls me Mahalia and took me some time to get used to." I chuckled and he followed,

"Oh okay, so it means that Peter won't be there for your coronation?" he asked to which I bit the inside of my cheek and shook my head no,

"Part of me really doesn't want to tell him. I don't want to go in between his school work, which I know is really important to him." I tell him, looking at my hands and taking the bandages off,

"Don't you think you should?" he asked me, 

"I don't know Steve, right now, I don't feel like I am his priority, which is fine. Honest to God. I don't want to become a burden. And since I never had a girlfriend/boyfriend relationship, besides this one, I don't want to overstep the line of what a supposed girlfriend is to do and not do." and with that the discussion had ended, he just nodded and gave me a side hug, that 's what I love about him, he never tried to push his own ideas onto someone, he would just listen, try to see from another perspective how things are, but if you are dead set on something he'll be a gentleman about it and let you go on in your reasoning,
