12/Don't Need You

Gwen's POV

I didn't want to sleep. Who knew what dreams would overcome me once my eyelids closed? Who knew whose voices would be in my head this time?

"Gwen," Peter spoke softly from across the couch, concern in his brown eyes. "You look tired. You should go to-"

"No," I interuppted. "I'm fine."

Peter appeared skeptical, "I don't belive that."

I looked away, not wanting to meet his gaze, "Peter, why do you care?"

Obviously surprised, he stuttered, "Wh-what?"

Taking a deep breath, I repeated, "I mean, like, why do I matter to you so much? I don't think we ever exchanged even two words at Midtown- why the sudden interest?"

Peter looked at me, like he was debating something, before he responded, "I don't know."

I eyes suddenly turn dark, "So you don't know? You have no idea why you just suddenly befriend me? It was just a random impulse to enterain you?"

"No, that's not what I meant at a-" 

"Oh really?" I asked, beginning tomove over "Then what do you mean, Peter?"

"I mean well I, um..." Peter scrambled for words, not knowing what to say that wouldn't freak her out. 

There were so many things he could and wanted to say. I love you, because you're my girlfriend, you're amazing, you're my favorite person in the whole world.

None of it would work for mere acquaintances. 

"Well," he rubbed the back of his neck. "Because you're a great person.

I scowled, "You need to stop pulling that crap on me. It's not working." I stood up, and he followed my lead. "I don't need your friendship, or whatever the hell this is. I don't need your help, and I damn well don't need any pity. And you know what, Peter Parker, I don't need you!"

Tears blurring my vision, Iturned around and started to walk away, but he grabbed my wrist, "Gwen, wait-"

"No, Peter!" I shrieked and turned around. "Leave."

"Please-" he was practically begging.

Quietly, I spoke, "No, just go. Please leave."

And I turned around, not looking back as I retreated back to my room.

A/N

How was it? No worries, Gwen will come to her senses soon. 

IMPORTANT~ I feel really bad, but I'm going to be ending this book pretty soon. No worries, I will resolve the conflict and finish it with Gweter of  course, but this story isn't going to be as long as my others. To be honest, this book is just hard to write because of Gwen's amnesia and lack of proper Gweter.

Instead I will be updating my oneshot book more frequently, to hopefully in some way make up for this.

QUESTION~ With all that said, is there anything special you'd like me to add before this book ends that I could somehow work into the plot? If so, please let me know!
