Torn (Fremmer Fanfiction)

|| Chapter 4 ||

~Summer~

      I went to school feeling merry. I walked to my locker and a long line of students were there, each holding a rose. I followed the line, one by one I collected the roses. At the end of the line, there stood Lawrence and Zack holding a poster that had a heart on it. Inside the heart wrote "I'm sorry." The other boy released it and out came Freddy, holding a dog plush toy. His other hand had a bouquet of pink roses.

  "You liked the surprise?" he asked. I smiled and nodded. Then I came in for a hug.

  "I loved it." I whispered in his ear.

  "So we're hugging now..." he said, grinning.

  "I guess we are."

  "You two are adorable." said Zack. We pulled away. I was blushing like there's no tomorrow. Then the 'ringtone sound' rang which meant it was 5 minutes before class.

  "See you at lunch." Freddy said, kissing me on the cheek. I hurriedly put all his gifts in my locker and went to class.

***Lunch time***

      I sat on an empty table, carrying the tray of food with me. Then Freddy decided to join me.

  "Hey Sum."

  "Hey.."

  "So, I guess you and I are allowed to hang out again?"

  "Yeah, I guess."

  "Peter isn't.. mad or anything about this, right? Or does he not know about it?"

  "He knows. And he's okay with it."

  "Why?"

  "We.. uhh.. cooled off, I guess.."

  "Oh. So, you're single again, then?"

  "Yep. Single, but already seeing someone.."

  "Yeah? Who?"

  "I'm talking to him right now." I looked at him and smiled. He smiled back. We were leaning in, so close yet so far. Then, my phone vibrated.

  "Woops. Gotta take this call.." I stood up and answered it. It was from Peter.

  "Hello?" I said.

  "Summer. I hope you're doing okay now, I hope Freddy's not doing anything to harm you. Tell him I'm really sorry about everything, okay? And uhh.. I gotta go. Mr. Stark actually texted me saying if we can meet after school. He said it's really urgent."

  "Congrats Peter! I'm so proud of you!"

  "Heh, thanks. Anyways, I miss you Sum, and if anything happens, just remember I got your back."

  "Thanks Peter. I mean, Spiderman."

  "SHHH! Hahaha. Bye."

  "Bye." Then he hung up. I went back to the table.

  "Hey again." I said.

  "Who called?"

  "Peter. Oh yeah, he wanted me to tell you that he's very sorry about.. all the violence."

  "Tell him it's all good. We're cool." he replied. "So, uhh.. you think we can go out tonight?"

  "Out.. where?"

  "I don't know, watch a movie or something?"

  "Yeah, sure."

  "I'll pick you up at your house at.. 6?"
