꧁Chapter Ten꧂

I slowly let go Peter before telling him we should head back inside to not delay the mission any further. While we make our way through the hallways Peter's arm is around my waist giving me an awkward side hug.

When we walk into the classroom everyone is stationed in different areas of the room. MJ and Ned are sat at the front still scrolling on Ned's laptop then the older Peter is still lingering around at the my former work station and lastly the tallest out of the Peters is at the back of the class pacing back and forth. It was painfully silent every single one of them minded their own business. As me Peter walked into the room none of them seemed to notice until I cleared my throat.

After I cleared my throat both Ned and MJ looked up from the computer and greeted us with an awkward 'Hey' before making their way over to us. MJ pulled my Peter into hug which left me quite surprised. For the time I've known MJ she hasn't really been the type of person to show any sort of PDA. She will occasionally hold Peters hand but that is as far as she goes if there are people we don't know. But here she was pulling him into her arms which left me to awkwardly scoot away not wanting to ruin their moment. Luckily for me neither of the Peter's had seemed to notice all the commotion from us re-entering the room so it gave me more time to prepare for 'The Talk' as well as giving me more time to spend with Ned.

"Hey Ned" I say as I place my head on the top of his. He responds with a simple nod before asking me
"Do you like them ?" I was completely confused as to what he was asking so I hum a simple 'hm' as I  lift my head off of him moving to sit across from where he's standing.

"You know the Peters" he says as he turns his eyes away from mine to look at my Peter along with the other two Peters standing at the back of the classroom .
"Yea I guess,I mean I like my Peter and the other two seem nice. " I say giving him a shrug before turning to look at Peter and MJ who are still hugging each other.

" Oh I forgot I bought you guys food " I say happily as I remember the food and drinks I had bought from the 7-Eleven.
I stand up from my seat and make my way towards the shelves on the side of the room where I had placed the bags. I pick them up before heading to sit across from Ned.

" So what you want ? " I ask as I empty the bags to reveal and assortment of chips,candies,and drinks.

" Thanks " He says as he grabs a bag a 'Doritos' and a bottle of 'Sprite.'
" No problem"I say before I separate the things I had bought for MJ and Peter. I grab the food and drinks and walk over to the couple.
" Hey guys I got you some food. " They both thank me before I walk back over to grab the food I had bought for the oldest of the three Peters.

" Hey, I got you some food. " He looks up from the desk looking at me as if its taken him this long to realize I was back.
" Oh you're back. "  I nod as I place the food I got him down on the desk before sitting next to him. In the short time I'd known him he's become a person of comfort to me. I don't know why, I just know that if I need to tell him something he's willing to sit and listen unlike the tall Peter who hasn't really made a positive impression on me.

" So I got to tell you something " I say as I watch him grab the 'Coke' bottle off the desk and open it. His only response is a small head-shake due to the fact that hes drinking out of the bottle. I can't really think of a good way to explain this to him so I'm going to try to explain it as my mom says " Con Palitos  y Bolitas " which just means in the simplest way possible.
" So you know how I told the other Peter that I have more experience than both of you combined? "
" Yea what about it ? "

" Well for starters I'm sorry "

" It's fine, I get it you were mad and sometimes we say things we don't mean. "

" Yea but I sort of meant it. " He looks at me while raising his eyebrows which form his face into a puzzled expression.
" What I mean is that Peter and me, I mean all of us " I say as I move my head to gesture to my friends in front of us.
" We're all supposed to be 21 "
" Then why aren't you ? " He asks sounding completely dumbfounded about whether I'm telling the truth or if I'm bull shitting him.
" I know it sounds like I'm lying but I swear I'm not let just explain." He gives me curt nod and I start my story.
