"it hurts when I remember and I never want to feel that again.."
Synopsis: in which wally and reader bond over their controlling parents
Part one! Not much wally in this first chapter but I hope you see the potential
Y/,n was born into a prestigious family. She was in all the gifted courses at school and to put it simply failure was never an option. Being in almost every possible extra curricular came with a ton of stress.
She remembered the first time she'd received an A- on an exam, she remembered the anger and disappointed looks upon her parents faces. How they demanded you ask the teacher for extra credit even though there was still a few months left in the school year and there were still plenty of defining assignments.
She came from a family with 5 siblings, each more exceptional and brilliant than the last, until y/n. Her father always pushed his children to be the best, and he was successful, 3 doctors and a lawyer came from the y/l/n household and you were his latest ment-ee.
There wasn't a ton of time left over for normal teenage things, like parties of football games for example. But being the captain of the soccer team it was expected to let loose every once in awhile before a big game. And you were careful, or so you'd thought until Wilson Porter QB, trashed your party with a massive keg and the rest of the football team. The party was shut down within the hour and your father was forced to collect you from the police station.
"what has gotten into you?" Your father scolded as you climbed into the car.
"dad it was just a party! I wasn't even drinking I,-" you stuttered.
,"you'd risk your entire future on a silly party" her father laughed bitterly
"I'm 17 dad. Any other kid-"
"You are not any other kid y/n! You are a y/l/n
"And I thought you had the capability of being exceptional! So imagine my disappointment when you turned out to be nothing more than ordinary!" Her father had spat as your face dropped and a tear escaped your eyes.
You snapped out of the memory as you reingaged with the group before you, Mr martins words doing little to comfort you as you thought most of the things he said we're complete bullshit.
"for someone who's Job is to get people out of here, the room is still looking pretty full." The new girl Maddie snapped causing you to chuckle quietly before leaving after her.
You found yourself in your favorite place on campus,the art room as you shut yourself away as you usually did and worked intently on the painting you'd been working on for the past few weeks
"it's really coming together." A masculine voice called, wally shutting the door quietly behind him as he joined her on the bench.
"it's far from finished." You hummed as your eyes remained on the canvas before you.
"so uh, homecoming is next week." He said casually
"my twenty-fifth if Im correct." She said as she dipped her brush into the blue and swirled it around
"we're going together right,? I mean we have been but-"
"of course wally." You smiled softly before settling into a comfortable silence as the Clark boy watched your masterpiece grow.
