Old Friends, New Beginnings || Peter Parker

Part 33 - Confession

Liam and I were walking to my house to get ready for a night of selling his uncles weapons.

I hadn't talked a lot because my talk with Peter upset me.

I was thinking about us being together again like nothing ever happened. Hanging out together, without worrying about anything. A tear falls down my face and I sniff.

"Upset?" Liam snapped me out of my thoughts.

"What?" I asked looking at him wiping my tear away.

He watches me as we walk, "You're upset, about Peter," he said again.

"No, I'm not!" I exclaimed, he looked at me closely, "I am," I then said.

We reach my house and I take out my keys and unlock the door. I throw my backpack on the floor and walk into the kitchen, Liam following.

"What did Peter say to you?" Liam asked.

I walked to the kitchen table and see a note on it. I pick it up, "Y/N, I'll be at the office until tomorrow, dinner is in the microwave, be good and study tonight" I read out loud to Liam.

I throw the note in the trash and go to the microwave to find a big plate of lasagna ready to be warmed up. I warm up the lasagna ignoring the fact that Liam was behind me waiting for my answer.

The microwave beeped and I took the big plate of lasagna out, I grabbed two forks and turned to Liam, "Want some lasagna?"

He grabbed one of the forks, "Y/N, what did Peter say?" he asked.

I took a bite of lasagna then set my fork down, "He wanted to talk about that night. About what he said,"

"I told him there was nothing to talk about." I looked at Liam to find him looking back at me, "Let's talk about something else, what's the plan for tonight?"

Liam looks down and then back at me again, "We're meeting with a guy who wants to buy two of the climbers,"

I nod telling him to continue, "The price of two 900 bucks but I know this guy and he's gonna try to make a deal to get them for about 700."

"Well if he's gonna try to scam us then what's the point in meeting him?" I picked at my lasagna.

"My uncle told me that if this guy likes our items, he may buy way more." He finished up his lasagna, "This is a big deal, but apparently it's not under the radar. My uncle told me that somehow Spider-Man has information about this deal."

I freeze up, "So Spider-Man is gonna show up?"

"Probably," Liam replies.

What if Peter discovered that it's me? Why am I doing this? I was trying to forget about Peter and got wrapped up in these crimes.

I break out of my thoughts and push all my guilty feelings away, "Well, we should probably get ready then," I tell Liam.

That night, Liam and I did some homework and then suited up to meet the guy buying the weapons. I put on my little outfit and Liam put on his.

"What if Spider-Man shows up?" I ask as we make our way out my front door.

Liam looks at me, "You can take care of him. Just burn him," he laughs and continues to walk as I just give one nod of the head.

We make our way downtown and to the same alley where we meet people about deals. I continue to worry about Peter showing up.

Liam and I walk into the alleyway to find a man waiting there for us. He was tall and thin. He has tattoos going up his neck. I noticed a gun sticking out of his pocket.
