Summary: It's Alena's first day in elementary and she meets a certain spider-boy

For Natasha, the worst thing about having a child was having to watch her grow up in no time. It felt like it was only yesterday, that she held little Alena in her arms just after giving birth.

Now her little girl was already 6 and ready to start school.

,,Mama, come on, we're gonna be late"

The 6 year old stressed, pulling at her mothers sleeve.

Her red hair was falling down her back in curls, tied into a half updo. Her blue dress wasn't to posh but not to casual either. A/N: Idk how it is in America, so I'll just write out of personal experience in Germany :)

To keep it short, Alena didn't look like a toddler anymore, but rather like a more gown up girl.

Natasha was pulled out of her thoughts. She had been admiring her little girl, unconsciously reliving all the memories they had made up to this point.

,,I'm coming, мало света (little light), where's Dad?"

The older redhead asked, craning her neck to spot her now husband.

,,Daddy's already inside. I think he wanted to avoid trouble before uncle tony shows up"

The 6 year old explained, peering up at her Mama with a smirk.

Natasha stifled her laugh. She found the imagination of Tony Stark crashing the event in his iron man suit just for the little redhead pretty amusing.

,,No Mom I'm serious, uncle Tony said he would come and he said he'd bring everyone else too"

Alena explained seriously. She knew it was a lie, but the little troublemaker found everything funny that could cause her mother premature grey hair.

,,I'll call him. Alena Lubov, you better not be pranking me"

The older redhead warned, mostly as a joke.

,,No time for that, Mama. We need to get inside or we'll miss the sorting"

The 6 year old exclaimed, dragging her Mom with her and into the school.

...

,,And last for class 1b is Alena Romanoff-Rogers. Alena please join your class"

The principal announced through a microphone.

Alena confidently jumped from her seat between her parents and made her way to the front.

,,Hi, I'm Alena"

She introduced herself to the boy next to her. He was rather awkward looking, but smiled.

,,My name's Peter, Peter Parker. Nice to meet you, Alena"

He introduced himself. The panic weighing on him seemed to vanish.

The 1st graders chatted back and forth all the way to their classroom. Turns out, they both loved the colour red, hated broccoli and their favourite thing to do was climb on the monkey bars.

Once Alenas class reached the classroom, she immediately sat down beside her new-found friend.

Peter beamed. Alena returned the beam.

Those two were made to be best friends, everyone could tell once they saw them.

...

Natasha and Steve were waiting for their daughter in front of the classroom.

Outside, Tony and a few other avengers really showed up to surprise their favourite little redhead.

The door finally burst open, revealing loads of kids rushing towards their parents.

To Nats surprisement though, she had not spotted her own child yet.

Then, a tuff of red beamed in between all the other kids, accompanied by little Peter.

,,Mama, I made a friend"

The 5 year old beamed and collided with her mothers body.

The assasin picked her up, resting her on the hip.

Alena squirmed in her arms.

,,Mama, I'm big now, put me down"

She demanded, a light grin on her face.

Natasha let out a laugh as she hugged her daughter tightly.

Alena hugged her back, but was put down after, according to her wishes.

,,This is Peter. He's my new best friend now"

The redhead proudly announced, flinging her arms around his body.

He gave an awkard grin and waved, before a brown haired woman hurried towards them.

,,Hi Pete, you ready to go home? How was your first lesson?"

She asked softly, kneeling to the boys level.

Peter hugged the woman, who family Romanoff-Rogers thought was his mom.

,,Hi I'm may, Peters aunt"

The woman smiled at Alena and then her parents.

,,Natasha"

The assasin responded, colder than she intended to.

Steve laughed his wife's coldness off, by introducing himself:

,,Hi May. I am Steve Rogers, Alenas dad. Nice to meet you and Peter."

,,And I'm Alena"

The 5 year old Redhead beamed up at May.

May smiled, before she held out a hand to Peter and said goodbye.

,,Bye Alena, see you tomorrow"

Peter grinned and waved his little hand.

The redhead waved back, before she turned to her parents.

,,I saw uncle Tony land outside. He brought Auntie Pepper and Uncle Rhodey"

She announced delightedly, before basically storming past her parents to greet them.

,,They grow up too fast, dont they?"

Natasha sighed, as she followed her daughters bouncing, red hair with her eyes.

Steve embraced her and muttered:

,,Yea, they really do"

A/N: 'Ello beautiful people :) Like I said, no idea if I got it right and if you do the school enrollment like that in America, but we do it like that in Germany. The kids get put together in their classes and go to the classroom together and have like a first lesson there. Everything is a big deal over here that day and the kid gets celebrated, idk. It's quite fun.
Also this was kinda shit but hope you enjoyed anyways. (I'll prolly do some one shots where Alena is older after this one, but when she's younger again, I'll sort it by age again)
Yea, stay amazing and see you around, bye :)
