After spending the whole afternoon walking around and after saying goodbye to Miles who had dinner with his parents, Gwen and y/n come back to Hobie's apartement.
-Can't believe he said that.- Gwen laughed as y/n had told her an anecdote about her father's excuse that he told her after forgetting her birthday.
-Neither could I. At first it hurted, then with the passage of time I've learned to laugh about it.- she replied, shrugging.
-Anyway before we get in...-Gwen said to her -I apologize for how Hobie treated you before. He usually isn't like this. I don't really know what he was thinking when he spoke to you in that way...I'm so so sorry. No one deserves that.- she said, placing a hand on her shoulder.
-Don't worry, Gwen, it's fine. No apologies needed, really.- Everything is just fine.- she smiled, reassuring the blonde.
It was nice having someone who cared for her.
y/n had found in Gwen a friend, with whom to confide, laugh, compare spider techniques and tell anecdotes about her life.
She couldn't ask for more.
Both girls took off her masks, placing three pizza boxes on the table.
-Hobieee! We brought pizza, dude.- Gwen called for him, not getting an answer back, she went to check the bedroom and knocked at the bathroom, he wasn't in either of them -That's weird, he's not in here.-
-Well, let's just wait for him to come back then eat.- y/n said, sitting on the couch.
Gwen copied her and just when she opened her mouth as to say something they heard the door closing, that made their head turn immediately.
-No need to wait, I'm here.- a masculine voice said, as he walked in through the door, before sitting at the table.
Seeing y/n sitting on the couch next to Gwen felt weird to him, but he didn't say anything.
Now, y/n noticed, Hobie wasn't wearing the spider suit under his normal clothes and looked like a normal person.
-Here you are, dude.- Gwen saluted him, as y/n limited herself to a small gesture and a half smile -We brought pizza. Want some?-
-Yeah, thanks.- he replied as they all sat at the table to eat.
The dinner had been a bit awkward since y/n and Gwen chitchatted the whole time while Hobie listened for most of the time and said just a few words, when he was asked direct questions.
-I'm gonna go to the bathroom for a quick change. I'll be back in a couple minutes.- Gwen said, suddenly standing up then turned her gaze on Hobie -Can I leave her with you or...?- she asked, raising her brows a little.
-Yeah, you can. I won't do anything, I swear.- he replied, raising his hands in surrender.
-Ok then. Be back soon.- the blonde said, disappearing into the bathroom.
-Shit.- y/n suddenly realized she hadn't any spare clothes -I don't have anything to change in. I'm gonna go in my universe real quick.- she stood up too, a bit embarrassed by herself.
Something in Hobie's brain unlocked at those words, as if something had been locked up for years and suddenly released from the padlock.
-Wait. I may have something for you.- Hobie said, getting up and walking in his bedroom, when he noticed that she wasn't following him, he looked out of the door -Want an invite or something?- he asked with a smirk.
-Sorry, yeah. Coming.- y/n nodded and reached him in his room.
His bedroom had the same vibes as the kitchen.
A bit messy and full of posters.
-It should be here...somewhere...- he mumbled to himself as he looked in his wardrobe -I know it's in here...Ah!- suddenly he took out a box.
It was a normal brown box that you would use for a move.
Hobie's expression was a mix among vulnerability, happiness and overwhelm all at once.
-What's in that box?- Gwen's voice said, as she walked in the room, changed into her band shirt and gray sweatpants.
-Clothes.- the man just replied as he sat on the bed -Take whatever you need. I don't really wear them. They're too small for me.- he shrugged, putting his hands in the pockets of his pants.
-That's very nice of you...Thanks.- y/n gave him a smile.
-You're welcome.- he replied, looking away.
Gwen looked between the two of them, a bit confused.
-You never gave me clothes, Hobie.- the blonde whimpered mockingly, making puppy eyes, making y/n trying not to laugh.
-C'mon Gwen. You had brought your own clothes.- the man responded -And in addition I had forgot about these.-
As y/n kneel to open up the box and start to look through the clothing, she and Gwen noticed that the majority of those were clearly feminine.
Suddenly a question popped in their mind.
-Whose stuff is this?- the blonde immediately turned her head.
-Just a friend's.- he replied, carelessly, like it was nothing important -She just thought it was a fun idea to have some spare clothes at each other's house. If ever a girl would have snuck here, or a guy there, y'know.-
-Wouldn't she mind if I wear her clothes?- y/n asked, picking up a pair of pants and a simple shirt.
-Nah. It's been a while since the last time I saw her.- he replied -We haven't spoken in ages. She's not here anymore so you should be okay.-
-Then thanks mysterious girl for your clothes.- she smiled, looking up at him.
-So...ehm...I'm gonna leave you so you can change.- Hobie gave her a half smile, then left the room.
-I'll go with him.- Gwen said, following him and closing the door behind her.
After they left the room the two friends sat on the sofa, waiting for their guest.
-When are you gonna explain what the canon events are?- he asked, turning his head to her.
-I'll explain to her later, if you wanna help just come to us.- she proposed with a smug smile -I have the feeling that she might think you're not a complete asshole after all.- she laughed a bit.
-Oh, c'mon Gwen.- he rolled his eyes, holding back a laugh.
At that moment y/n left the bathroom.
When Hobie saw her his heart skipped a beat even if she was wearing normal clothes.
-Those clothes fit you.- Gwen said, looking at her, and giving a look at Hobie.
-Thanks. Anyway, how should we sleep tonight?- y/n asked, a bit concerned.
-We could do a rotation, y'know.- he replied -Like tonight me in the hammock, Gwen the sofa and you the bed. Tomorrow night Gwen the hammock, you the sofa, me the bed. The day after tomorrow you in the hammock, me the sofa and Gwen the bed.- he explained -Does that sounds okay to you?-
-Totally, yeah.- y/n and Gwen agreed.
