50s AU fic Sneak peak
Warning ⚠️: 😈
By the time Gwen got there it was late in the afternoon. The sun had been very unforgiving. She was sure she smelled and looked terrible. But hey she made it. ‘Nothing could possibly be worse than this’ she sadistically chuckled to herself.
Once she made it through the gates she walked to class A-512 ‘jeez with numbers like these you’d think this school was a lot bigger than it is’ but she decided to retire that question for the meantime, and took a quick breath to calm herself. before opening the door. She was greeted by a horrifyingly familiar face leaving her stunned like a deer in headlights. A man with firey red hair and brightly colored eyes. The eyes of a man she thought she’d never see again.
“It's you,” she whispered under her breath.
He was stunned himself but he managed to compose himself enough to say “ Um-Hello” with a warm awkward smile.

And then they boned

After the initial shock Gwen managed to find her way to a seat, The moments that followed were tense and awkward. So the man took it upon himself to introduce himself. He was Max’s home room Teacher, Mr. Greenwood.
“So miss San-”
“It's Santos!” she interrupted abruptly, quickly buttoning her shirt.
David was a bit spooked by the sudden intrusion “uh-but…Um”
he flicked through his paper, In awkward confusion.
“Aren’t you?” He gestured between her and Max’s file. He looked as if he was trying to piece things together for himself before Gwen graciously clarified.
“I’m his Tia or um, Aunt”
she nervously explained. Things like this happen quite often actually so Gwen understood the man Confusion, but she couldn’t help but be a little embarrassed by her quick outburst.
“Oh! Ok so you’re his legal guardian? “
Those words ate at her “Yes” she answered curtly.
]- It's dumb really but Gwen never liked that title. It felt far too… legal, or medical? To be honest she wasn’t really sure how to describe it. All she knew was that she never liked being called it, afterall she is his family so she’d prefer to be called as such.
‘I’m his Tia dammit’ That thought echoed in her heart and mind at all times,but today it was louder than usual. So loud she spaced out and didn’t pay attention to the man right in front of her. Only now tuning back in, to whatever he was saying.
It seemed the Redhead took notice and looked at her with his head slightly tilted “ is something the matter Ms.Santos?”
He was surprisingly observant for a redhead . At that moment Gwen snapped back from whatever daze she was in and looked back at him “ oh sorry I-''
She took a pause to focus on what she was gonna say next. Feeling embarrassed of how her mind just wandered off like that, It also didn’t help that he was staring at her now. So Gwen sighed and asked. “ Can you start over?”
He seemed to perk up at this “..Okay..
And then they boned
