"I feel like f*ckin' something.... and it's you"

Just a short fluff piece I wrote in literally 30 minutes of random inspiration at 3 am. Enjoy :)

Peter could only stare as Harley sang (more like screamed) along to Doja Cat's Kiss Me More, while driving one of Tony's cars that Harley had taken for their impromptu road trip to Tennessee to visit Harley's mom and sister... all without Tony's knowledge. But that wasn't important right now, what was important was Harley's surprising knowledge of the whole Doja Cat album that had been playing for the past half hour.

Of course, Peter's enormous crush or Harley caused him to focus on not smiling like the sappy lovesick fool he was and look like a normal person hanging out with his friend.

He was not doing a good job.

Suddenly though, at the line, "I feel like fuckin' something" Harley stopped singing, seemed to think something over, and with a sigh, shut off the music.

It was such a sudden change from the last few hours of constant music that Peter actually jolted. Before he could ask what was wrong, Harley spoke up.

"And that something is you, idiot," Harley said looking over at Peter.

Peter froze, unsure how to respond.

What? What did he say? Why did he say that? He couldn't be serious. There were no signs of it. He's just caught up in the song or something... It's a joke.

Harley sighed again before pulling over to the side of the road. Peter only stared at him, convinced he had misheard or Harley was joking. After all, why would his crush of literal years suddenly tell him this while driving in the middle of nowhere.

"I know you're a little slow when it comes to these things, but I'm gonna need you to finally take a hint. I've literally had a crush on you since we met and have been flirting pretty much every time we're together." Harley said, staring straight at him, completely serious.

"Oh..." Peter whispered, still digesting everything that had been said. He could only think back at their interactions and suddenly saw Harley's flirting and could only think he was indeed slow when it came to these types of things.

"Yeah, oh," Harley repeated with a hint of a smile on his face.

Before Peter could speak again to tell Harley about his own feelings, a third voice spoke up.

"Finally!" Tony's voice surprised them both.

"Tony?" Peter and Harley both asked, staring at the middle screen before turning to each other for answers they didn't have.

"Yeah, it's me. What a surprise since you're in my car. You guys missed lab day and disappeared without a trace so I had FRIDAY track you down. And while I'm so glad that you two finally got your shit together, would you like to tell me why you're currently in West Virginia?" Tony somehow managed to sound both unimpressed and panicked.

And when Harley finally just hung up on Tony after five minutes of a hurried explanation, Peter finally spoke up with a grin.

"Hey Harley? I like you too."

And as Harley grinned at him before getting back on the road, Peter could only grin back and laugh as the radio blared again, the song continuing where it left off.
