A few nights had passed since the whole thing had happened with Spider-Man and not to forgot harry. Milo didn't seem to care about the situation the next day, he actually avoided me which made me worry. I didn't like him I don't even think I could ever like anyone ever. That point was proven with Patrick. No matter what happens harry will find a way to insert himself into my love life.

"Wait so what happened again?" Peter asked as he fixes his suit. "I'm not even sure Pete this car just comes out of no where and I think im going to die!" I make an explosion with my hands, "like my life flashing through my life die, yknow?"

He chuckles, "and then what Milo saved you?"

I roll my eyes, "Yknow the only man who could save a spinning car coming straight at me is Spider-Man, I mean if you know any other guy like that point me to him."

"I'm just glad you're okay." Peter states.

"Me too, it's cool thought I think I don't think I could ever experience like that again unless like a super villain kidnaps me or something." I joke around, "I sometimes just can't believe Spider-Man is real." I continue.

"Yeah you would think it's something just for comics." Peter adds on.

He grabs his tie and hands it to me.

"Can't believe you're going to go watch the girl of your dreams in a play and you're sitting here asking your best friend for help with a tie." I begin to put it on him.

"Just because we're in college doesn't mean im not still a little clueless in a few things."

"Right, that coming from the smartest person I know is a bit ironic." I roll my eyes. "But hey at least you're going out ok i got to admit im a bit scared after what I went through."

Peter taps my shoulder after im done with his tie, "at least you're alive."

"It's a miracle I am what would you do without me?" I smile. He looks at himself in the mirror and then back at me. "How do I look."

"Amazing." I give him a thumbs up, "im glad you're going to this play yknow maybe you'll see how much you really do love Mary Jane."

"Hey I don't love her." Peter scoffs.

"Yeah sure Pete."

"And plus she told me she seeing someone." He adds on. Im slightly taken aback by this, "what? Did she say who?"

"No, well." He clears his throat, "we had a moment.. and then I pulled back I just didn't know what to do and then she says 'I'm seeing someone, and I like him'."

I lick my teeth, it couldn't be harry, right?

"Don't stress she did seem happy that you were going to her play, just don't disappoint her, I think you've been doing that to her, a lot actually." I point out. "She likes you too Pete and I know you say I don't give you advice so here's some; don't get her hopes up, a girl can only bounce back from disappointment a few times."

"I won't.." he reassures me.

"It's almost 8, you better start driving in your little scooter if you wanna get there on time." I joke.

"Yeah yeah just wait until I bring home a girl on the back of it." He replies before he leaves.

"Make sure to avoid the landlord we are a month behind rent." I yell as he leaves.

"Rent?" I hear the landlord mumble as soon as Peter is out the door.

I swear that man has ears of a mouse... or cat or whatever animal has big ears and can hear really far away. I sometimes like being left alone in the apartment other times like today I hate it, when it's quiet I begin to ponder on all of my life decisions.

One of the big ones being why I never tell Pete anything that happens with me and harry. I don't think I do it on purpose, Pete is just always so stressed even more so lately with college, work and Mary Jane. I don't want to add on that his two best friends have a weird thing going on.

What do we even have going on?

Cop cars start blaring and flashing their lights by the apartment, I grunt and turn on the radio, as long as I stay out of it I won't get hit by another flying car.

I lay down on the bed and rethink about what happened, "hurting you.." his voice echos in my brain the way he actually sounded so hurt made me hurt.

It's always decoding something with him, he can never straight up tell me he likes me or anything.

Ring, ring.

I cringe at the loud phone ringing, I cross my finger praying that the landlord is passed out. Running quickly almost tripping I answer the phone.

"Hello?" I whisper into the phone

"Azalea" a voice yells back

"Yes?" I whisper once again.

"It's Peter I need a huge favor." He yells loudly.

I glance a look at the clock, "it's 8:30 Pete shouldn't you be at Mary's Jane's play?" I reply.

"I-" he doesn't say anything for a few seconds, "someone hit my scooter im getting all their information for insurance and stuff I need you to take flowers for Mary Jane to me please." He continues.

"Pete..." my voice trails off.

"Azalea please.. I don't want to disappoint her."

"Pete I honestly feel like this would make it worse, plus I would get there once it's over and I don't even have a ticket." I complain.

"It's fine you'll get there by the time it's over I just need you to get her flowers." He reassures me.

"Peter i don't really think it would mean anything for me to go if anything I would think she wanted to see you."

"Azalea.." he sighs, "please I need her to see that I care."

"Fine..." I reply.

"Thank you so much there's 10 dollars in my night stand I think that's enough for flowers." He quickly says, "I have to go please just text me once you get there."
