Not Today

In the middle of the night, there is a call from the police station. Ben parker is found lying dead in an alleyway with multiple gunshot wounds on his way to the Airport.
Peter and Aunt May are heartbroken and the discovery is all over the news.
(I'm sorry I couldn't bare to write all this out)

Once you heard the news this morning you nearly choked on your toast and immediately grabbed your bookbag and pulled out your phone on your way to Peter's. It seemed that Peter was already on his way and once you were done with your text about five blocks away from Peter's house, you bumped into his nearly dropping your phone.

You looked up in alarm your eye's red from holding in tear's, you had known Uncle ben personally and he was more like a father to you then anything.

You were surprised to see Peter in front of you his arm on your waist steadying you from your near fall. You immediately wrapped your arms around him pulling him in, he slowly wrapped his arm's around your middle burying his head into the crook of your neck and your shoulder.

You felt his body rack with sobs and he began shaking "I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry" you cried quietly to him as he held you closer to him. Peter squeezed his eye's shut and you provided the only comfort for him at that moment as he relished in your warm embrace.

After a few moments, Peter pulled back unable to look you in your eye's. You looked at him worriedly and brought your hands up to his cheeks caressing them softly your thumb brushing up to wipe away the tears "He loved you....more then anything" you whispered to him lovingly providing a warm smile through the pain of your own sadness.

Peter still didn't look at you afraid his tears would continue but, his eyes closed as his right hand came up to entwine with your own bringing your fingertips to his lips.

That's when he could finally bringing his eye's to your own and he gave you a small smile through his tears and you let your own tears fall while you smiled back reassuringly. "He'll always be with you. And please don't you ever...ever blame yourself for this".

Peter looked back up at you surprised and you knew he was shocked that you were aware of his feelings about the situation.

Afterwards you and Peter debated on either going out and skipping school or going to school and going out later. However, that design no longer became and option the moment your chemistry teacher ended up passing by and eyeing both of you.

You and Peter sighed in unison "School it is" you both said chuckling in unison.

You then grabbed Peters hand in your own before you both began walking toward the school at an incredibly slow pace. Peter began talking about his Uncle ben for a moment and when it became too much you moved on to things like Aunt May's cooking and grades or Flash's last haircut which had you both bursting out laughing.

Peter then crushed you in a hug suddenly sighing in contempt "God sent me an angel! Oh god what would I do without you?" Peter asked to no one in particular leaving you a blushing mess in his arm's.

You giggled lowly before he leaned down sweeping you into his arm's "I love you (y/n)" Peter said suddenly and you looked up at him in shock. Peter looks at you serieusly and he has a hopeful look on his face before he gives a smile.

"Uncle Ben didn't stop bothering me for four years to finally ask you out, I was going to the day after I walked you home last week and you had heard the bell but, no one was there. I was to afraid then and now that I can finally call you...mine. I don't want anyone else in this world but, you. So, (y/n) I've loved you since the day I laid eyes on you and I wish I had the guts to say this a long time ago" Peter said quickly and by the end he was blushing madly but, looked relieved to get it off his chest.
