===========You absolutely hated Peter Parker. I mean, he was always so rude to you and the fact that he was your best friends boyfriend, made everything worse.
First you were actually good friends with Peter. You even liked him, but that all changed when Peter started ditching you. Never showing up to anything and when you confronted him about it, he lost his mind.
You and Peter went separate ways until Peter started to get a crush on your best friend, Liz. Great, amazing! Just something you needed. It wasn't that you didn't like Liz, you fucking loved her. It's just that you have to see Peter every single day.
It's stupid because he's a nice kid. Just the history you both shares made everything awkward and difficult.
It was now lunch and you sat at the 'popular kids' table. Peter sat with Ned and Michelle, as usual. You scoffed while looking at him. Liz took a huge bite from her sandwich. You chuckles lightly at the cheese dripping from her mouth.
You took a sip from your Orange Juice carton. Liz always found it strange you never drunk coffee or a soda at school. "Y/N, why don't you ever drink something different than all these kid cartons?" She chuckles slightly at you making you groan. "Like I said, Caffeine is a drug and I refuse to take any drugs..... at school," You smirk at the end and the burst into laughter with the rest of the table.
Meanwhile, you see in the corner of your eye, Peter walking over this way. You scoff at him. "Hey babe," He smiles at Liz. "Hey," She replies. I make gagging noises making Flash chuckle. "I was wondering..." He begins and sit between you and Liz making you fall off of the bench. You hit the floor with a thump and decide to sit next to Flash who is also not having it with Peter. "...Maybe we could go watch a movie at my place?" He asks her and Liz nods. He kisses her cheek and Liz blushes furiously. "See you after school then," He says goodbye and leaves.
You put your finger in your mouth and fake gag towards Liz. "That you've had a bad history with my boyfriend is not my fucking problem," Liz snaps at you, making you stumble. "Can't I complain about how he pushed me off the bench?" You snap back at her. "Fuck off! Peter loves me! You're just fucking jealous that I can get a boyfriend and you'll never get one!" She starts to yell. Your table was already looking at the both of you and now a crows was forming. "How am I jealous?!" You yell, pissed off. "Because I'm pretty and popular. I smell good and have the latest and newest outfits. You know what you are? A dumb piece of shit who is ugly and disgusting. I made you popular!" She screams through the whole cafeteria. Everyone is looking at the both of you.
Ouch. Those words took it too far. You stood up and left with tears brimming in your eyes. You walked at a fast pace and left the cafeteria. You threw your tray into the trash bin and walked towards the bathroom stalls. Once you were in there, you sat on the toilet and cried. You didn't cry because you had a fight with your 'best friend'. No. You cried because all those things she said were true. You are ugly and disgusting. No one likes you. Everyone thinks your stupid and pities you and it's awful to think this way.
You decide to skip school for the rest of the day and go to your apartment complex who happens to be located next to Peter's. Which is why you guys became friends in the first place. Your rooms were thin and you could hear each other very well.
You went towards the building you live in and opened the front door. You took the elevator towards your floor. As the elevator door dinged open, you sprinted towards your apartment. Your head was down and you didn't realised you bumped into someone. "S-sorry.." You stuttered. You looked up at the woman. It was May. Peter's Aunt. "Y/N! Are you alright?" She asks worried and looks at your red and puffy eyes. You simply nod and open your door to only lock it once inside. You sprinted towards your room. Luckily no one was home.
You cried into your pillow and cried and cried and cried. Now, you absolutely hated Liz and her stupid boyfriend. Fucking high school. Can't anyone get a break for once?
After an hour, you stopped crying but you started talking to your stuffed animal cause you felt lonely. "Why am I like this?" You asked it. "Why aren't I Liz? I mean, she's pretty and popular. She has fashion sense and she's funny. She has a boyfriend that treats her nicely a-and she's very rich," You sigh and look down. "Her body is also amazing compared to mine. I might hate her, but she will always look and be better than me," You started to get tears in your eyes again as you sniffed.
Little did you know, Peter was listening this whole time. To you crying and what you're saying now. He felt bad. He truly did. The only reason why your friendship ended was because Peter couldn't react in a mature way. No, he had to yell and scream at you making you cry. Peter fiddled with his fingers, deciding he should check on you or not. May said he had too because she was worried.
He knew what happened at the cafeteria and thought what Liz said was absolutely disgusting. He walked up to her and confronted her.
"What you said about Y/N was fucked up," Peter snaps at Liz. "You're my boyfriend! You should be taking my side!" She whips her hair back and scoffs. "I don't date bullies," He said and ended the relationship he was in. He followed Y/N home, but she was too sad to notice.
"Maybe I am jealous," You start talking again. "Maybe I still like Peter. I don't know," You sniff. "Maybe I reacted rude towards him is because he was dating my best friend?" You said it more as a question than a statement. "I don't know. He's way out of my league anyway and deserves way better," You cried again and sobbed on the floor.
Peter couldn't take it anymore and decided to go to your window. He jumped out of his window to walk towards yours. He hesitantly knocks three times. He waits for a response or reply but nothing. He sighed and wanted to go back until the window did open. You look at Peter who is climbing inside. You wipe away your tears and sniff. "What the fuck are you doing here Parker," You snapped at him. "Y/N, I came to apologize-" "-a few months later?" Your voice was soft and broken. Peter tried to grab your hand but you pulled away. "Peter. You have an amazing life, go live it. Don't waste your time on me, please," You close your eyes and turn your back to him. You assumed he was about to leave until you felt a warm hand on your shoulder.
"You're hurt. Let me help. Please," He looks at you with pleading eyes. You stare at him for a good few seconds until you break down into tears and fall to the floor with him. He wraps his arms around you as you sob in his sweater. You guys stay like this for about 8-9 minutes until you speak up. "I-I just feel so much lower next to Liz," You say to him. "But you're not. Y/N, you're the most beautiful specimen I have ever seen. You're not disgusting, you're pretty and cute and adorable. You're funny and fun to be around with. Don't you ever say that you're not because you are," He hugs you tighter. You decide to hug him back. "I'm sorry for being rude to you," You say and Peter rubs your back soothingly. "I'm sorry too," He also apologizes.
"And I like you," Peter finishes. "Like, a lot," Peter smiles down at you. "Wha- Why? a-and Liz?" You question him confused. "I never liked Liz. After that fight of ours, I lost my mind completely. I tried to hide all the feelings I have for you by dating someone else," He sighed. "I think I love you and it sucks because- I thought you hated me," He sheds one tear and you wipe it off with your thumb. "I could never hate you, Parker," You say to him. You stare at his eyes and flicker to his lips. After a few seconds you start to lean in. "I love you too," You said before putting your lips on his.
It was a sloppy kiss but there was so much love and passion in it. You guys pulled away and looked at each other. "Can you still explain to me why you ditched all of our plans?" You chuckle lightly.
"About that...."
