Cooking Class (Peter Parker/Spider-Man)

Rena's POV

"So, we have to make something healthy..?" Peter asks as he looks through the booklet.

"Yep, I'm on my laptop for some ideas"

"What we made last time was healthy, except for the Oreo cheesecake" he looks at me.

"Yeah but we can't make the same thing plus it's only main and dessert this time" I slightly shake my head.

The whole lesson, I haven't made eye contact with Peter. I can't even look at him the same way, especially when I saw doing some stuff him with Liz.

"We can make pasta" I suggest.

He looks at my laptop, "yeah we can" he smiles at me.

I don't look, of course. I write it down on the booklet, "why won't you look at me?"

"Because I don't want to" I bite my lip.

"Why?"

"I have my reasons"

"Which are...?"

"You assumed that I talked shit about you... and you had sex with Liz" I shrug making sure I say the last bit quietly.

The image flashed in my mind, I shake my head.

"Well, what do you want me to do? I'm waiting for you to apologise properly. Why does it matter that I had sex with Liz? You did it with Sebastian. And you kissed Ezekiel"

"1, I tried apologising. 2, Sebastian and I were actually dating. 3, how do you know about that?" I finally look at him.

"Everyone knows. And have you really tried to apologise?"

"Yes!"

He doesn't believe me, I can tell by the way he looks at me.

"You really want that apology, huh?"

He nods, "of course"

"Peter. I'm ugly, I have crooked teeth, my eyes are a weird shape, I have freckles, I have curves. I hate myself so fuckin' much that I do not talk shit about people. I'm not perfect, I want to be but I can't looking like this. Why don't you understand that?" I sigh.

He stares at me. His face softens.

"And if that's not a good enough reason then you have to believe me when I say this... I like you, Peter"

He doesn't say anything.

"Wow" Stephen says.

Ezekiel just stares along with everyone else. I turn red in embarrassment.

Everyone including the teacher waits for Peter's answer.

"I'm with Liz"

My heart breaks. Again.

I exhale, "okay"

Everyone went back to work disappointed.

"I'm going to the bathroom"

-

I sit there in the stall trying to get either Cameron or David to pick me up. David gives in.

I go back to class and wait for the announcement to call out my name.

"I'm sorry" Peter says.

"Don't"

'Could Rena Boyce come to the office with her bag'

I grab my stuff and left without a word.
