BUT IT DIDN'T LOOK LIKE IT WOULD END SOON.

It's been a few days since the first release of Peter's identity - this is the only thing the whole of New York City is talking about lately. Everywhere I go, it's all about Peter Parker and Spider-Man. The main issue isn't Peter Parker's secret identity of Spider-Man. But the fact that the public is assuming that Spider-Man is responsible for the death of Quentin and Ed Beck.

And that is not true.

I tried telling that to the Department of Damage Control when they had me under interrogation. Well, not just me, Ned, Happy, Aunt May and obviously Peter as well - they didn't believe anything I was saying. They thought that I was merely defending Peter because he and I are close.

I tried to be reasonable with them, but they had enough information from us so they finally released us except for Peter. They wanted to do further interrogation with Peter and his lawyer Matt Murdock.

So, now I am heading over to school with Ned. It was lunchtime and I was at the cafeteria, sitting with MJ, Betty, and several others - Ned had to do something at the councilors so he wasn't with us.

No one dared to speak up about the issue that has been wafting in the air for the last couple of days. I could tell everyone was curious to know more about it but they didn't bother to ask me about it. And I am glad, they're not doing that - it's none of their business.

I sighed as I picked up the broccoli from my plate - I was not in the mood to eat as I was too worried about Peter and what his consequences may be.

MJ must have noticed as she cleared her throat and placed her book down, "How are you feeling, Y/N?"

I shrugged, "Great. Really great." Obviously, this was sarcasm, because I was feeling extremely terrible on the inside.

MJ nodded, "It'll be fine. Don't worry - regardless of what charges Peter may face, you'll be alright–"

"Wait-wait, MJ do you really think that Peter killed Mysterio?" I started,

MJ shook her head, "No-no, that's not what I meant–"

"You realize it was the drones that killed him, not Peter," I responded.

"Well, you weren't there Y/N." Betty suddenly interrupted, the expression on her face was filled with disbelief.

I frowned at the girl and she continued, "We don't know for sure, but from the evidence and everything, it is clear to me that Peter killed Mysterio - He was controlling the drones remember?"

I scoffed, was she being serious?

I thought she was his friend?

Is she really assuming that her friend is a murderer?

"So you're just making a conclusion based on a ten-second video? Betty, you should know better. Mysterio was in control of the drones and sent some to kill us - don't you remember that we were running away?"

"No, I remember. But that doesn't give any more defends on why Peter didn't kill Mysterio." She replied, crossing her arms. The whole table was now listening to our conversation, thankfully it wasn't the whole of the cafeteria.

"You really don't trust him, do you?" I scoffed, "I assume due to your internship at that The Daily Bugle - you have been brainwashed."

"What-"
