MJ and Ned are sitting in Peter's and Ned's dorm room waiting for Peter to start talking. After Lily had left the coffee shop, Peter texted the group chat, asking MJ and Ned to meet up at their dorm room the next day. It was kind of (intentionally) brushed off to seem like a movie night, a normal occurrence between them but when they arrived tonight, Peter said he actually needed to tell them something.

"So, are you gonna tell us?" MJ asks, watching Peter fidget with his fingers.

"Uh, yeah so there's this girl." Peter starts, voice consumed of hesitance as he looks up slightly to MJ.

"You need to ask us about girl problems?" MJ raises her brows, her words coming off a little more harsh than intended. Peter's just never asked for help about a girl before, at least not to her, and he made this seem like it something really important. So, she's left a little confused.

"No." Peter shakes his head quickly. "Her name's Lily Magruder--"

"Like...the one whose brother got hurt last year?" Ned pipes in, making Peter and MJ furrow their brows at him before looking between each other. "Ya know, the guy who was here on like a full ride scholarship, tore his ACL in a soccer game." Ned has been keeping up with a few of the sports since coming to college, soccer being one he happened to like to watch, along with tennis.

"Oh, uh, yeah, I remember." Peter nods, remembering that it was pretty big news around campus but he didn't remember the person's name. But Ned does and maybe it's just a coincidence that Lily and him share a last name. "I'm not sure if that's her brother."

"Anyway..." MJ breaks up the conversation and brings PEter back to the topic at hand.

"Right, right, well, she works for the Daily Bugle." Peter starts to explain, MJ and Ned narrowing their eyes, already not liking where this is going. "J. Jonah Jameson is having her go after Spider-Man to reveal his identity."

"Oh, well that's bad." Ned states sucking in a breath.

"Yeah, you should probably stay away from her." MJ warns, her words coming out as a scoff.

"About that." Peter winces, scrunching his nose.

Ned groans while MJ rolls her eyes, both in disappointment. Peter doesn't learn and at this point, they're both a little sick of it. When they got their memories of him back, it was as if they were swept under by tsunami. It wasn't this gradual thing where everything just went back to normal. They were flooded by memories and every single emotion that came with them. 

MJ went through this tidal wave of emotions for this boy she didn't even know that long. She felt this intense love and passion for him as every memory of him came back to her. He went from a stranger to someone she'd known for years and been in love with. Ned was swept up with the adornment he had, always having looked at Peter as a brother. Peter was more than a best friend, he was his brother and it all came back, the fear and worry for Peter's life. It was a mess for the both of them.
