Chapter two

Peters POV

Sitting in front of Ned and next to Seymour I write on the paper my answers to the questions MJ had set up for the team, I look up at the clock "oh, uh, can I be excused early?" I ask, pointing to the clock "why? Where do you need to go? Peter." She asks, shifting uncomfortably I struggle to form words "I.. have a eye-test" I lie, regretting my decision instantly, knowing everyone's eyeing me in confusion "okay, you best be at the meeting tomorrow." She says, sitting back and returning to the other group members who are still confused.

Swinging throughout queens, I flip Underneath a bridge swinging down towards a guy racing off with someones bag, snatching it from his hands I web him to a wall "Is this anyone's Bag?" I shout looking around i see a group running towards me "Yeah that's mine!" Looking at the familiar dark skinned female with Ned and a few from the Decathlon team "Here you go, ma'am" I say in a low voice handing the bag over to her, looking at her for a brief moment before moving at a record breaking time and swinging off somewhere that's not there. Answering the call I am receiving from May I sit on top of a building like I always do "Hey may" I say softly, watching the thousands of cars shoot past "Hey honey, Are you out patrolling?" She asks, nodding I play with my web containers "Yeah, Like I always am after school" I reply, leaning onto my Elbow I watch as the sun falls past the horizon "How was school?" She then asks, nodding slightly i hear Karen say something but choose to ignore it "It was.. The same?" I mumble, hearing her make a noise of disbelief she then sighs "Alright, well come home soon, I'm starting dinner." She says, laughing i shake my head "I hope its not another Turkey" I tease, ending the call I stand shooting my web at a nearby building I swing down through the streets, opening my window with my foot I see Ned sat in my desk chair building some Lego probably to do with star wars.

Tapping my chest my suit falls from my body, immediately i grab a hoodie Sitting beside Ned "Have you been reading Michelle's notes?" He asks, beckoning towards the open book that has writing i had wrote all over the pages of corrections and diagrams "More like adjusting.." I smile sheepishly, closing the green covered book, I turn to him "how did your 'eye-test' go?" He says, aiming to tease me I assume, showing him the fake glasses i had picked up he laughs "Oh man, Your gonna get bullied.." he teases, laughing I push him "I've got to go anyway since you came back so late. I'll see you tomorrow" He says, looking at my mask before walking out.

"Peter. Your attendance is horrible, has everything been okay? is your Aunt okay?" the Principal asks, holding back a sigh at the last question I nod "Just, You know, Stark internship and all that." I say, looking outside the window at Ned who's pacing around impatiently "Well figured out a Schedule we need you at school" He says, patting my forearm I stand nodding before walking out.

Looking at Ned he sighs in relief at my smile "just detentions after school" I laugh, adjusting my back slightly "that sucks man, so that means less patrolling." He shrugs, nodding I enter the English classroom with him immediately getting looked at since I'm wearing glasses "Ned, peter...? Happy you joined us" ms warren says, cocking an eyebrow at me before returning her gaze to the board and continuing.

The day went by quick and by the end I found myself stuck in the detention room with Michelle and another student, glancing around I rest my chin in the palm of my hands "hey, nerd" turning to look at MJ she puts her middle fingers up "nothing better to do" she smirks cocking an eyebrow, feeling my breath hitch she laughs "I could say the same to you, sitting in on detentions when you don't even have them?" I retaliate her eyebrows arching "what's with the glasses, loser" she laughs, watching the teacher walk out probably to go get another coffee for my two hour detention "I needed them" I arch an eyebrow in confusion "don't bullshit me Parker, you have ace eyesight" she says, leaning on the back of my chair I freeze "you need it." She finishes, leaning back into her own chair swallowing a lump in my throaty I nod "it just went faulty" I mumble turning around again I hear her snicker.

Going to walk out of the school I'm stopped by MJ who's got a load of books in her hands "I need some help" she says dropping a few in the process of walking, picking them up I walk beside her to the library that she's always in "and you call me the nerd" I tease, laughing when she attempts to hit me "you are a nerd." She mumbles, opening the door to the library with her back I walk past her and begin putting the books in the correct places "so what's with Ned?" She asks, looking behind me I furrow my brows "what about him?" I ask, growing cautious with my words "he's always acting weird around you, like he's got something to hide" she says, turning I jolt at how close she is "does he have something to hide, peter?" She ask, closing my eyes I clench my jaw "nothing to hide" I murmur, turning  around and continuing to hastily stack the books "if you say so, but I will find out Parker" she says continuing to do the same.

Stopping in front of my aunt she looks confused "I need help may." I say quickly.
