" So how have you been, (y/n)? Peter sat down with the kitten cuddling in his arms. " I haven't seen you in a while.

" Been better... , but not kill myself bad." You thought about it. " Yet some people at my work are testing my patience, but over the past few days they are been....eh... better."

" Same, but people at school mostly. I love school, but I hate everyone in it.... Well... except Ned of course and someone..... Else."

Peter's face started to turn bright pink.

You gasped. " Peter..... Do you have a crush on someone.....?"

" I'LL SHOW YOU HER PICTURE."

Peter put down the kitten and went into his room.

You looked down at the kitten and notice him giving you a look.

You rolled your eyes.

Peter came dashing through the door with a book open in his hand.

" This is her." Peter pointed out. " Her name is Liz Allen."

Peter point out to a pretty girl around his age in his yearbook.

" Well I think she is pretty." you complemented.

" She is gorgeou....." Peter quickly covered his mouth.

You looked at Peter and he was all flustered with pink checks.

" Awwww, My Peter has a crush."

You pulled him into an embrace. He didn't accept your hug because you knew that he was embarrassed to admit it.

You pulled away from him.

" Have you talked to her?"

" She... knows my existence...?" Peter started to twiddle with his fingers.

" Hey, that's a good thing. At least you have that." You tried to encourage him.

A small smile formed on his lips.

" Have you talked to her?" you asked.

" Well the issue is that she..... Is... popular."

" Here we go."

" But she is not a stupid popular, but she does have money. Yet she is more than just a popular. She is smart, creative, caring...." Peter turned to you. " Why are you looking at me like that?"

You smiled.

" You're scaring me here."

" Well because you really like her." You smiled. " Either you really like her or you are a good stalker."

" I DON'T WANT TO BE A STALKER!" Peter panicked.

" Relax. I joke."

" Ok." Peter relaxed. " So anyone caught your eye since you know who?"

" Voldemort?"

" Wow you already forgot his name. Teach me your ways."

" No I didn't forget, but I just wanted to continue the joke."

Peter chuckled.

" Jamie Madrox?"

" Yeah that bastard."Peter remembered.

" Peter I dumped him three years ago. Remember."

" I know, but I like talking crap about someone from time to time."

You sighed.

" So why did you dump him?"

You gave him a glare.
