The next day Peter picks me up for school. We walk to our lockers hand in hand while people are staring and whispering.

I get some books out of my locker.

"Hey, Penis Parker!" Flash yells and puts his hand on Peters shoulder as if they were friends.

"So... You actually know Spiderman. Dude... I thought you were just trying to be cool when you told us last year."

Peter looks uncomfortable but at least Flash is just making conversation instead of bullying him.

"Um- Yeah. Through the Stark internship. I get to hang out with him a lot." Peter says.

"Well. I have to admit it was a pretty cool idea. Asking y/n to be your Homecoming date with his help. It was all over the news. Man... And I wanted to ask y/n to be my date..." Flash smirks at me.

"You know I'm Peters girlfriend. And even if I wasn't I wouldn't have agreed to be your date." I state and take Peters hand to pull him into the direction of our first class.

Flash rolls his eyes and watches us go.

We sit in the cafeteria together with MJ and Ned.

During the day people kept asking me and Peter about Spiderman. It was kinda annoying to be honest.

"So y/n... you and Spiderman seem pretty close." MJ says and takes a sip of her drink.

"Uh yeah I know him through my uncle." I hate lying to her. She's my friend now.

"Was it weird? Being so close to him while swinging through the city?" She asks although she doesn't look really interested in my answer.

"No I'm used to it." I answer and immediately regret it.

She looks up, surprised.

"So you're doing this more often? Spending a lot of time with him being this close? Instead of spending time with Peter? Or is Spiderman your real boyfriend? Or maybe... they're one and the same?"

Peter and I look at each other in shock and Ned is happily watching us struggle to find a right answer.

"I- um... those are a lot of questions..." I stammer and look at Peter for help.

"He's gay!" Peter squeaks. That's actually a pretty good excuse to why he's letting me hang out with Spiderman so much.

"What?" Ned and MJ say in unison.

"Uhh yeah he's my gay best friend. He hangs out with me and Peter." I say and smile at Peter.

"But please don't tell anyone about this. He actually doesn't want people to know. There are so many homophobic people out there it would do no good to let the public know." Peter adds.

"I'm not gonna tell anyone. But now that you say this... he seems pretty gay doesn't he? Wearing this skin tight suit and just the way he acts..." MJ says and I almost choke on my water. I see Peter blushing in embarrassment.

"I heard people shipping him and Deadpool." I say and chuckle. Peter gets redder every second.

"Oh yeah they would definitely be an awesome duo. I hope they'll meet some day." MJ says.

Peter clears his throat.

"So are you guys excited for homecoming? Do you have dates yet?" He asks Ned and MJ in order to change the subject.

I take his hand in mine and listen to their conversation.
