It's been a 3 schools days and a weekend since Peter met... his new friends.

"Friends." Peter would tell himself. "Not comrades,partner,master,boss,Aunt,Uncle, Mother or Father. But friend. Just not a friend but friends! Sure their personality's all clash including their "rankings" in the school which does rise arguments. Especially between M.J and Mary Jane.

"How did Ned describe them?" "Oh yeah!"
"As frienemies!" "Although I have no idea what that means..." Peter thought to himself.

"Yo, Peter!" Harry called out. Peter hurried to the table that held his new friends. M.J had just started a new book so long that a deep argument between her and Mary Jane was slim. Ned began to babble to Peter about his grandparents who stopped by and the rest listened in.Even M.J once in a while secretly heard Ned's story of setting the oven mitt he wore on fire.

"I suppose that's why he's not in culinary class." Peter thought.

"Guess that's why your not in baking class Neddy boy." Harry said.

"Huh. Isn't thinking the same thing your friend thinks a good sign of friendship or something cheesy like that?"Peter wondered to himself.

Peter was snapped out of his thoughts when Harry piped up "I am not sure if I am lucky or not to not have to deal with relatives cause most of them are dead or suspected to be."

"Jeez way to be macabre." M.J told Harry while actually looking away from her book.

"Well yes and no." Provided Mary Jane. "Sure I don't like my mom sometimes but my Aunt is awesome and I do adore my little cus Kristy."

"Guess I am lucky to have my dad." Harry said a little exasperated.

"Yeah but all my siblings do drive me nuts." M.J commented. Peter thought about his Aunt and smiled.

"Whatta bout you Pete?" Mary Jane asked.

"My Aunt." Peter told.

"His Aunt." Ned translated.

"Wait that's all?" Mary Jane inquired which got her a firm elbow to the stomach from Harry and a upside head smack from M.J.

Peter nodded. "But I am in foster care since she can't take care of me."

"Oh so that's why you just showed up at school,moving from home to home." Ned said aloud.

"Wait your in foster care Peter?" Harry asked in shock.

"Yeah,can we change subjects?" Peter answered and asked.

"He said yes and wants to change subjects." Ned told the group.

"Sure." M.J said. And that was that.

Or so Peter thought.
