Slowly but surely

Chapter 12

I made my way to my room when we got home. Wanda said she would make us dinner and we could eat in my room and watch something to relax a bit. 

I screamed when I opened my door and there was a guy just laying on my bed. Pietro appeared by my side in a matter of seconds 

"What happened?" he asked worriedly 

"Nothing," I said as I put my hand over my heart and stared at a guilty-looking Peter.

"sorry I didn't mean to scare you," he said holding back a laugh as he got up to hug me.

Pietro rolled his eyes and I was confused by his expression.

"I'll leave you two alone I guess," he said walking out and I could sense a hint of anger in his voice.

"Give me a minute," I said to Peter and he nodded.

I followed Pietro out stopping him in the hallway

"what's wrong," I asked and he shook his head.

"Do you not like Peter?" I asked and he shook his head 

"It's not that it's just I think you like him better or something," he said and I resisted the urge to laugh he looked like a child 

"we've just been friends for much longer he's like a brother to me," I said and Pietro shrugged 

"I love you all equally how about that," I said 

"what if you come to hang out with us we can still watch the movie," I said and he looked at me unsurely before giving in.

I texted Wanda that Peter was going to join us and she replied that it was fine and that the food would be ready in a bit.

"I heard what happened," Peter said when Pietro and I got back into my room.

"my dad tell you," I asked and he nodded.

"I'm sorry I couldn't be there," he said and I shook my head 

"it's fine I had Wanda and Pietro I was in good hands," I said smiling at Pietro.

"ok so now can I say I told you so," he said 

"I told you he wasn't a good guy and you didn't listen" he continued 

I looked at Peter and grabbed a pillow before hitting him across the face with it.

"too soon," I said throwing the pillow on the floor.

I grabbed my other pillows and some spare blankets and threw them on the floor in front of my tv.

"what are you doing," Peter asked 

"Do you think all four of us are going to fit in my bed?" I said and he looked at me confused.

"Oh yeah Wandas making food and we're going to watch a movie," I said 

"Can you please keep up?" I asked

"Sorry I can't read your mind," he said cheekily as he began making the floor comfier.

"I'm gonna text May," he said 

"Tell her I said hi," I said and he shook his head 

"no thanks I'm good," he said and I pinched his stomach.

"What are watching," Pietro asked and I smiled widely.

"I am not watching maze runner again," Peter said as he looked at my menacing smile.

"Yes we are," I said as I scrolled through channels with my remote finding the movie.

"What's so bad about maze runner," Pietro asked and Peter sighed loudly 

"Dylan O'Brien," he said and Pietro still looked confused, he hadn't heard of the celebrity.

"y/n is in love with the man" he replied and Pietro raised an eyebrow.

"ok he's in love with me as well it's not one-sided," I said as I lay down on the floor on top of the blanket.

"That was one time," Peter said as he sat down next to me 

"twice actually" I looked at Pietros confused expression

"I met him in real life and told him I liked his work and he called me pretty," I said smirking 

"and then that night he followed me back on Twitter" I added 

"and don't forget to mention that nothing ever happened after that," Peter said and I smacked his arm.

"She's a bit delusional" he continued and I rolled my eyes.

"you're nineteen and he's thirty one please stop," he said 

"I wanna watch this movie now," Pietro said intrigued.

On cue, Wanda came into my room carrying four bowls of spaghetti.

I thanked her for the food by blowing her a kiss and pressed play on the movie after being sure to tell her to watch out for Dylan.

The movie started and Dylan appeared on screen as Thomas.

"I'm getting some very strong and very disturbing images in my head please stop," Wanda said and I frowned

"he's just so hot," I said and she laughed 

"figure out a way to ogle him by turning your brain off," she said.

"Are we forgetting I went through something very traumatic," I said playing the victim card

"next person to speak is having their mouth webbed shut," Peter said looking directly at me. 

I stuck my tongue out on him and just focused on Dylan. I contemplated messaging him on Twitter and calling him hot but refrained from doing so.

I don't think I could date anyone famous. My first boyfriend before Blake was Gavi the footballer for Barcelona.

We met at a charity gala and I was introduced to him by my mom. 

We clicked at the gala and decided to exchange numbers to keep in touch and then one thing led to another and he became my first boyfriend.

Dating him as a person was great he was sweet and basically the perfect boyfriend but the extra fame that came with it was bad.

It was double the opportunity to get papped and his fan girls would eat me alive on a daily on social media.

At one point he had to make a statement addressing the hate. We broke up on good terms and still talked sometimes.

After Gavi and Blake, I didn't think there was anyone I could date that would be ok. 

Famous or not I always had the worst luck.

After the movie finished we all stayed up talking and messing around and somehow managed to fall asleep on my bedroom floor.

I was glad my only three friends were finally getting along.
