Part 6: "Eugene I..."

Previously...

Peter looked up from the ground he was staring at and at Eugene. He had a confused expression across his face telling Eugene to keep going.

"I don't want to pressure you Peter.. but.. have you given any more thought to what I said the other day? I-It's completly fine if you haven't it's just- we're holding hands and acting like a couple, and I just want to know.." Eugene stammered.

Peter smiled and stopped walking, Eugene stopped as well. The two still holding hands, but now just standing in the middle of a close to empty sidewalk, just inches away from eachother. "Eugene I..."

"Eugene I..."

Eugene's face deflated as Peter paused. Peter was thinking of how exactly to word what he was thinking.

Peter continued, grabbing Eugene's hands in his for comfort. "I really like you Eugene, and trust me I mean that, but I don't know if I am exactly ready for a relationship, especially during school and with me starting this new internship,, or i guess job sorta, I'll be really busy so I won't have a lot of time to spend with you. Which I think really isn't fair to you."

Eugene smiled looking down at his crush, he raised his hand and cupped Peter's left side of his face with his left hand, and carressed his cheek. "You are adorable, and so so kind you know that?" Eugene commented, "But, I'll be getting a job soon too, but I have my licence and we can figure it out, we'll find plenty of time to spend together, plus we can't work that late right now because of school, and with the school system they let us out of school early because of our jobs" Eugene rambled on. "I don't mean to try to pressure you into anything but-"

And he was cut off by Peter suddenly kissing him, they're lips connecting. Once Eugene processed what was happening he leaned into the kiss more and tilted his head, depening the kiss. Once the two teens pulled apart, resting their forheads together for a moment and then seperating Peter smiled. "Will you go on a date with me?"

Eugene's lips curved into a wide smile, "Of course." He replied before taking Peter into a hug, resting his head on Peter's shoulder and Peter doing the same.

The two pulled apart and started walking towards the apartment building Peter lived at, once again holding hands as they were a few minutes before.

September 9th

It was a saturday so Peter slept in until almost 10am that morning. He woke up to his phone ringing. He sleepily picked up the phone to see the caller ID, it was an unknown number. He decided to answer in case it was someone from Stark Tower.

"Hello?" Peter spoke into the phone sleepily, his voice being croaky.

"Hello Peter, this is Tony Stark." Tony replied.

Peter shot out of bed, the voice alone made him realize who it was. He sat in a silent shock for a moment before responding back. "M-Mr. S-Stark? Why-why are you calling me?" Peter stuttered out, pressing his head to his forehead, he now had a headache due to getting up as fast as he did.

"Well you applied for the job I'm hiring for didn't you?" Tony chuckled a little, knowing Peter would be shocked.

"W-well y-yeah but i didn't t-think you'd be the one calling me a-about it.. I-I thought it'd be one of your employees sir." Peter said, trying to form coherent sentences and only slightly failing. He took a breath to try and compose himself- it somehow helped a little.
