"PLANNING BEGINS."




















———————————
*Peter's POV*
———————————


















"Peter, what are you doing behind a bookshelf?" Ned asked in a confused tone as I flinched at the sudden voice.

'What's Ned doing here?'

"Ned! Don't come up behind me and scare me like that!" I whisper yelled while avoiding the question. I was watching M/n in the library to try to think of a plan of how i could start a conversation with him. Maybe i could slowly approach him and make sure not to scare him off, so he knows i'm not a threat. Wait, why does it sound like i'm trying to not scare a deer? But anyways, back to the main issue. I've been standing here for an hour and forty five minutes while he's been reading. I know it's kind of creepy and stalkerish but there's no other way to try and talk to him. He ignored me in the halls, he dissapears around the corner, he leaves the classroom before i can even get up, he never makes eye contact and i can never seem to know where he goes to after school.

It's like he just vanishes into thin air. I know i messed up and probably broke his heart but in my defense i got a little bit. . .distracted.

I know you're probably shaking your head at me like: "Peter what in Thors name makes you think he's ever going to forgive you after you stood him up?!" Well, i'm thinking the exact same thing. I might not have the courage to talk to M/n yet but at least i can watch him from afar and see if he's doing ok. . . That still sounds creepy dang it.

"Oh sorry, but i was just looking for a book when i saw you over here. What are you doing though?" Ned asked a bit confused and I gulped and covered the spot in between the bookshelves where i had been staring non-creepily at M/n. "I was just uhh- . .i was looking for a book too! You know how we have a test coming up and i wanted to study!" I said trying to make up a lie. "Really? I thought we just had one three days ago." Ned answered and looked at me with narrowed eyes making me sweat slightly. "Peter are you lying to me? Not cool dude." Ned said and shook his head and crossed him arms.

I sighed and decided to tell him the truth. "I wasn't actually looking for a book. I was looking at M/n cause we haven't been talking for a while and i just found out the reason a few days ago. . .i feel like the worst person on the planet right now because of what i did to him." I let out while picking my nails and looking down at my shoes that suddenly had all my interest.
Ned sighed "Whatever you did it couldn't have been that bad-" "I accidentally ditched him on a hang out we were supposed to go on and went on a date with Liz and didn't realize after a month. . ." I said in one go and waited for his reaction. He just stared at me then suddenly his face turned into shock; his mouth hung open, eyes wide and shock was clearly expressed.

"You did WHA-" i quickly covered his mouth as he yelled and shushed him. "Ned! We're in the library! Keep your voice down." I whisper yelled with a worried look and glanced at M/n through the bookshelves and sighed, relieved that he was still there. I looked back at Ned and he licked the palm of my hand making me recoil in disgust. "Eeww! Why'd you do that?!" I whispered while rubbing my hand on my jeans. "So you could uncover my mouth but that's besides the point! How could you ditch M/n just to go out with your old crush! Of course he's going to ignore you because you went out with a girl instead of meeting up with him." Ned scolded me, which made me feel worse than i already did. I groaned and grabbed my hair in frustration "i know, i know. .I already blame myself for doing this and not even apologizing. He must think i'm a jerk. But i want to try and make it up to him and apologize for ditching him."

Ned patted my shoulder and smiled "That's what best friends are for, i'll help you man." I smiled and held my hand out and he did the same as we did our handshake and began planning on how to get the perfect timing for me to apologize to M/n and then get back to talking. I'm sure with Ned's help i'll be able to overcome my fear of not being able to not talk with M/n anymore.

Step 1 will start or Monday. But for now, we'll plan on how to start a conversation with him. I hope this works. . .
