Chapter Text
"Val, you ever stop drooling over Daredevil long enough to realise how many actual boys like you?" Flash asked her one day during chemistry. It was the one class they had together then the rest of the day they chat in the halls between classes. "Huh? Oh nope I don't. BUT DID YOU SEE HOW FINE HE LOOKED IN THAT NEWSPAPER YESTERDAY?!" Valerie was always simping for someone last week it was ironman oddly enough but this week it's Daredevil. Flash side eyed her in response "Val I don't read Hell's kitchen newspapers nobody in Queens does." He replied in a monotone voice. "Well you should yesterday he stopped a bombing it was so cool." "Well spiderman has stopped much more impressive things" "You again with your weird spiderman obsession omg" Valerie says right as someone walks into the class "Peter Parker late again." The teacher says Flash Snickers next to Val and when Peter walks by he says "Sup Penis Parker did your Mommy give you a kiss goodbye this morning?" Peter responds quickly "Shut up Flash." "Oooo someone's fiesty today." Flash retorts "Flash.." Val gives him a annoyed look. The teacher makes everyone take a seat and begins her lesson. Valerie tuned her out it wasn't like it was anything new. She spent most classes doodling on her desk or chatting with someone. Nothing eventful happened that period so relief washed over her as the bell rang signifying passing period. Up next was her favorite class, Band shes one of 3 French Horns (shameless author fangirls over french horn lol) although there's 3 French Horns it seems that she's the only one that plays during class the other two spend it on their phones still they are pretty skilled if they do play if at all. Usually she's chatting with the other horns about how often the trumpets need help but they were sick today so she decided to talk to the saxophones across the isle (I sit across from sax's so Idk if that's correct but it is for me) to her surprise it's Peter mf Parker in first chair. She almost jumps out of surprise cause she thought he quit at the beginning of the year as he never shows up to whole group but none the less she talks to him. He's reluctant to answer at points most likely because she's one of Flash's friends but he doesn't seem so bad and he shared her disliking for trumpets maybe they can be friends. The rest of the day goes on like normal and she gets home to see police vehicles outside her home. Her Mother and Father in cuffs and Spider-Man speaking with a officer. She runs over to her parents and starts asking what happened. Her Mother looks at her with sad eyes and her father won't look her in the eyes at all opting to instead look at spiderman. She walks to the officer and catches a segment of his conversation with Spidey "This couple has been caught with thousands of stolen cash I webbed them up while they were at a ATM" Spider-Man says he sounds like a kid. A kid that just ruined Valeries life. She looked him in the eyes and although he didn't have his face showing she assumed he had a smug grin on his face. All she can do is cry. Cry for the daughter that just lost her parents. Cry for the betrayal of her friendly neighborhood Spider-Man. Cry because of the uncertainty that she will even have somewhere to go a week from now a place to call home. (I swear I'll get to the actual point of this fic soon)
