Him ; Peter Parker

Part 13

"Are you sure?" Peter asks me with real sincerity. I nod my head. I hated lying to people but I can't admit anything right now because I'm confused.

"Everyone stick together," Liz says.

"Yeah," Mr. Harrington says.

"You kidding me? This place is huge," Charles says, not exaggerating.

"I've seen bigger," Flash says.

"There's a bird in here," Abe says, pointing at the bird's nest. I'm in awe and then I turn around to see Peter whispering to Ned.

"Okay, guys. Pair up yourselves." Mr. Harrington says. Of course, Peter and Ned wanted to be together. I didn't know who to go with, and we had an odd number, so I just got the separate room. I was in my room when I laid down on the bed. Then Liz comes into my room.

"Hey, wanna go swimming with us?" She asks, already in her swimming suit.

"I don't know, I'm so tired and sore from trying to stay in shape." I reply, really not wanting to go.

"Please!" She begs.

"I'm sorry, Liz."

"It's okay, I understand." I walk her out of my room and I see Peter and her talking. Then I see Flash smack Peter's butt. I quietly laugh. Then I see Liz throw a candy bar at him. I get the feeling again. I start to feel sad and angry at the same time. I see Peter walk in a different way then Liz and he pulls his hood over him. I quietly follow him outside. I lift myself over him so when he turns the corner, he sees me. I drop down and he turns the corner.

"Ah!" He screams. I cross my arms around my body.

"What are you doing?" I ask.

"N-nothing." He says, stuttering.

"I thought you were going to study."
"I am."

"You are? Outside?" He looks at me and I raise a brow. He gives me the look like 'fine, I give up' one.

"Okay, I'm not studying. I'm going after the flying vulture guy," he says.

"Why?"

"Because, I want to show your dad what I'm made off and that I'm not just a kid in a suit." I nod at his response. He had a reason.

"Okay, I'm coming with you."

"What? No. Your dad would kill me if he figured out."

"Well, he won't then. I'll be back, let me go get my suit." I run upstairs and het my suit on. I run back downstairs and see Peter looking through a window on the roof. I lift myself up there to see what he's looking at and I see Liz, smiling and laughing. Her face was beautiful and she was such an amazing person. No wonder why he liked her. I exhaled. Why couldn't he just like me? Maybe I didn't want to admit it, but I was falling for Peter. His smile, his laugh, him. He was not going to catch me though. If anything, he was going to catch Liz. How could Liz not like him? He was amazing and perfect and so cute. He turns around and sees me.

"Ready?" He asks. I nod my head, slowly. He puts his mask on. "Hello, hello?" I turn to him.

"What?" I ask.
