This is random by Ms.Hunter comes from Stevie Hunter who was a dance instructor there (It’s not what I used her for in the story but it’s kind of similar) Also she’s in here just as a name iit’s not her personality at all, I just thought it would be an interesting reference
It felt like years since Peter’s been on a date. It was more like two or three months, but to Peter it felt like years. He had never been the best with girls, or really wanted to go on dates. For this girl he made an exception. She was the music teacher at the school, Ms. Hunter. One of the things Peter loves is music, he’s almost always listening to it. Half the time he has his headphones on, which does tends to annoy people. So when Peter learned that Ms.Hunter or Stevie, as he is going to call her on his date, showed interest in him, he jumped on the opportunity to take her on one.
Peter knocked on her eagerly awaiting to see her. Stevie opened the door and smiled at Peter, her brown eyes lighting up as she saw him. Peter looked at Stevie, her brown hair was in cornrows with golden beads at the end. She wore a red plaid skirt, and a white tubetop, the only thing that didn’t look very formal about her outfit was her white sneakers. This is kind of awkward Peter thought to himself. Peter was wearing what he always wore, a pair of jeans, a t-shirt, and his silver jacket.
“You look nice.” Peter commented
After a moment of silence, and Stevie staring at Peter’s outfit, Stevie finally said, “You do to,” Peter could tell it wasn’t sincere, it sounded like a question, and not a compliment.
“So, is it ok if I run you their, I can assure you it’s safe” Peter asked
“If it’s ok, I’d rather not. We can just take my car, you can just give me the directions and i’ll drive.” She declined
“If that’s what you want,” Peter answered with a fake smile.
Peter never liked driving, it was to slow for him. He also found driving really boring. If peter knows where he’s going, he would much rather run.
The car drive was bland. It mostly consisted of small talk. He also messed up the directions a few times, because he memorized how to run there, and not how to drive. Peter was very relieved when they got to the restaurant.
“So tell me a little bit about the restaurant.” Stevie stated
“Alright, it’s not to big, and not super fancy, but I did make reservations, because the wait can take forever sometimes. It’s not super exotic because I didn’t know what type of food you like. The food is good, I’ve been there a couple of times. It’s mainly known for being a nice pizza place, but they have other stuff too like salads.” Peter responded trying to make it sound as nice as it can, without overdoing it.
“It sounds pleasant!” Stevie commented
They walked into the small restaurant together. Stevie looking around as they entered. Stevie wasn’t very satisfied. The restaurant was small, and rustic, but still very nice. It had wooden chairs, and tables. The fabric on the booths chairs was an off-white, and the walls appeared to look like walls you would find in a cabin. In the corner there was a small bar with some bar stools that were made of the same wood as the chairs. The restaurant smelled very nice like a burning campfire, probably because of the wood ovens they used for making their pizzas.
Peter looked at Stevie, who was clearly disgusted by the smell Peter enjoyed. He walked up to the host, trying to take his eyes of Stevie’s look of disgust. The host smiled, and complimented Stevie on her skirt, Peter could tell he was trying to get rid of her look of disgust. Stevie smiled at the host, but quickly went back to the disgust face.
“Do you have reservations?” The host asked.
“We do,” Peter responded “under Maximoff.”
“Alright!” The host said getting silverware, and menus out of the tubs next to him, “I’ll show you to your table.”
The host took them to a small booth near the back of the restaurant. It was next to a window, That’s nice Peter thought to himself, If It gets any more boring I can stare out the window. Peter and Stevie sat down across from each other. Stevie quickly grabbed the menu, and quickly began flipping through it.
“Your waitress should be here in a moment,” The host said before walking back to the front.
Peter picked up the menu and looked through it a bit, in less than a minute their waitress was their. Peter looked at the waitress, She’s very pretty Peter thought.
“Hello,I’m (Y/n) i’ll be serving you today” The waitress greeted “Can I start you off with some drinks?” She asked
Wow her voice is as pretty as her. Peter thought, What am I thinking? I’m on a date. Focus Peter, focus. Before Peter knew it Stevie started ordering, for both of them?
“We’re actually ready to order. Two caesar salads please! Also water for both of us.”
“Alright, I’ll be back with your drinks in a moment.” The waitress, Peter now knew as (Y/n) said.
“Great, thanks!’ Stevie thanked her.
“Oh.., sorry thanks!” Peter quickly said before (Y/n) went off the get their drinks
I can’t believe she ordered for me. I could understand her getting me a water, but ordering me a salad. I would rather have a pizza. Peter complained to himself, Can today get any worse?
“What do you think of the restaurant.” Peter questioned, not expecting a good answer.
“It’s alright, I’m not a fan of the smell, or pizza. I hope it’s alright I got you a salad by the way.” She answered.
It’s not he thought. He didn’t say that of course, instead he responded “It’s alright, I haven’t had their salad before, but if it’s as good as the rest of the food here it will be amazing.”
“I’m sure it will be better than it smelled.” she laughed “I was expecting something more romantic though, like a candlelit dinner and flowers, but this…works, I guess”
“I’m glad it works.” Peter said coming off more unfriendly than he intended.
The conversation was luckily cut off when (Y/n) returned.
“Here you go! Two waters.” She said sweetly setting the water down on the table.
“I’ll be back with the salads.” she said hurrying off again.
“So on a different note,” Peter started “What’s your mutation?”
“I’m actually not one, I’m just a teacher. But i’m very supportive of mutant rights, and believe that they deserve them. ” She answered
I thought everyone at the school was a mutant? Maybe they made an exception. Peter thoughts were cut off when (Y/n) put a caesar salad next to him.
“Two caesar salads!” She stated “if you need anything let me know.” She quickly walked away, and to the next table.
“Speaking of mutations!” Stevie stated “You’re an X-men! You’ve saved the world! What’s it like?”Then it clicked. Stevie wanted to go on a date with Quicksilver, not Peter Maximoff. Even though they were the same they were different, ones a hero and saves the world, they other is the person behind the one who saves the world, the one with personality, thoughts, and emotions. Stevie just wanted a hero, Quicksilver, not Peter.
“Peter! Hello! I asked a question!” Stevie said tapping his shoulder.
“Sorry I was lost in thought. To answer your question, it’s nice, I guess, knowing I’m doing good for people.”
“Your very heroic! It must be scary, I would be worried about getting hurt.” She responded “I’ll be back I’m going to powder my nose.”
“Alright.” Peter said
I need to leave now. I can’t just skip the bill, and leave her here, that would be awkward tomorrow. It hasn’t even been a long time, so I can’t say I’m tired. I’ve got it! I’ll ask (Y/n).
“Excuse me, (y/n) right?” he asked as she passed, even though he very well knew her name was (Y/n) “Can you help me?”
“Yes it’s (Y/n) she answered, and how can I help you?
“I need a really big favor!” Peter laughed awkwardly “It’s really big…”
“What is it? I can atleast try.” she said sweetly
“My date is in the bathroom, it’s been a very bad date, I mean really really bad.” Peter explained
“I’ve been their,” (y/n) laughed, “You want me to ruin it?”
“Well,” Peter tried to think of a better way to put it but couldn’t think off one
“Um,” he laughed awkwardly “Pretty much.”
“I’ve got an idea. It involves me dumping water on her. Is that alright? She seems very rude, and something tells me we won’t be losing a customer.”
“I don’t mind, in a way you could even say she’s using me so, go ahead. But what about your job, will your boss get mad.” He asked
“My boss is my uncle. He’ll probably figure it out right after I do it. I hope this doesn’t make it weird between you, and her.” She explained
“It may, but I really don’t wanna see her again.” Peter laughed
(Y/n) picked up Stevie’s almost empty glass and said, “All right, operation spill water on- I didn’t get your name.” She said
“It’s Peter,” he told her.
“Operation spill water on Peter’s date,is a go!” She laughed, rushing to kitchen to fill Stevie’s water up.
From the corner of his eye, Peter saw Stevie. Stevie flashed a toothless smile at Peter, it looked kind of sarcastic though.
Stevie sat down, and looked at the table. After a second, she asked “Where’s the water?”
“I had the waitress get you some more, since it was almost empty.” Peter lied
“That’s nice of you, thanks” Stevie said flashing another sarcastic smile.
Peter held back his laughter as (Y/n) approached. He felt kinda bad, but she only went on a date with him because he was an X-men which is very shallow, she has also been rude to him all night. This date has been amazing so far, Peter thought sarcastically. This will be the best part of the date.
(Y/n) rushed over to Stevie, and ‘tripped’ on her foot, causing water to start splash on Stevie.
“What the hell!” Stevie screamed.
“I’m sorry! I’ll go get napkins!” (Y/n) apologized trying to sound sorry.
“No you won’t! Not before I yell at you at least! You’re salad taste like trash! This place smell disgusting! I also hate pizza! This date has been awful! To top that I saw you flirting with
my date, before you ran off to get me water!You’ve lost a customer today!” Stevie ranted(Y/n) and Peter looked down to hide their laughs. A couple people who, probably heard Peter, and (y/n)’s plan laughed. Stevie stomped her foot, and ran out. The moment Stevie ran out Peter, and (y/n) laughed.
“That was awesome!” Peter yelled, a little too loud, “Do you do that for every guy who has bad date?”
“Only the cute ones!” (Y/n) giggled “I also only offer the cut ones a free pizza, and their salad on the house.”
“You don’t have to do that!” Peter said
“I want to! I haven’t had this much fun at work ever! My shift ended a couple minutes ago, I could make us a pizza, and we could watch movies at my place!”
“I would love to!” Peter answered
“Good I’ll make the pizza and be back!” (Y/n) said rushing to the kitchen
Later (y/n) returned to Peter, and they went to her house. Peter’s new date turned out well, complete with pizza, movies, and conversation that wasn’t small talk.
