Dimensions - A Marvel Fanfiction

23. Her Story

Scarlet immediately went to her room after bidding and waving everyone goodbye. She took a quick shower and plopped down on the bed with her phone in hand.

BTS had just released an announcement on Weverse. She went to the kitchen to grab something to eat but stopped in her tracks in the middle of the kitchen.

"What the f.... Oh my god! Yes!!"

"What's happening over here?"

"Jimin's solo is releasing!!! Woohoo! You know we got that vibe baby!!" (A.N: This took place a few months back.)

She continued her little victory dance.

Tony looked at her and after a while said,

"Hey Scarlet?"

"Hmm?"

"I have been meaning to ask you about this... Don't you like... Kinda... Go back to your dimension?"

"Nope."

"Why?"

"I have thought about it. And well..." A ping interrupted her. It was her phone.

"Sorry, just a mo."

It was a text from her mom. It read:

"Scarlet where are you?"

"Out. Why?"

"I came home 5 minutes sgo and you were not there."

"I won't be coming home." Scarlet texted back.

"Get back gome right bow and wash the nishes." The text were all sloppy and the wordings were all wrong.

"What no! Are you drunk again?"

"How fare you speak to me ghat way?"

"Bye Mom see you never."

She switched off her phone and put it in her pocket.

"So yes, where was I? Yeah. I don't want to go back. Why, you may ask. I don't have any reason to do so. My mom is probably drunk as hell right now, and my father dosent give two shits about me."

"But I thought your mom was nice?"

"Right." Scarlet scoffed. "That's only until she sees the scar on my hand."

"What scar?" Thor asked.

Scarlet sighed and waved her hand over her left arm. "I learnt to do this when I found out I had powers. My mom threw a bottle at me once."

Peter opened his mouth.

"I know I have tried it once. But I only had 3 things to keep me going. Marvel, working in Marvel someday and BTS.

People keep thinking I listen to some random Chinese boys like a mad person all day but no. They kept me going. They made me laugh when I was at my worst."

She let out a breath.

"I was going to do it one day. Sucide. I was standing on a building preparing to take my last breath knowing that there was no one for me. You know what the best part was? People couldn't say that "Think of the people who would be sad at your death." Because there aren't any. I stood on the edge. But then they released the Love Yourself album. I took it as a good sign. I would work hard. To meet them. Maybe move out. To prove myself to the people who belittled me.

Now. I haven't achieved any of these but I got something better. A family, a real familly for whom Is gladly kill and die for.

Oof. That was enough drama for one day don't you think. I should probably go to my room." Scarlet wiped her eyes and stood upp shaking.

"Oh Scarlet." Natasha whispered and pulled her into a hug.

"Please don't say you are sorry. I don't want pity"

"I'm proud of you Scarlet."

"Me too."

"Me three."

"Ah. Thanks guys. And don't stare at me with those expressions or I'll stab you with a fork and hang you with your intestines."
