"Just take it easy on him MJ" Ned tried to plea with me for the 20th time.
"You keep saying that but it's been 10 days since he just stormed off and I haven't seen him since. I get that he was upset but why avoid me." I said fiercely glaring at Ned.
"MJ I don't know and I don't really want to ask him, I'm his best friend but even I know when not to push my boundaries" Ned said sitting at the edge of my bed.
I huffed and crossed my arms childishly.
"There's gotta be something else bothering him and I know YOU know and aren't telling me" I said looking at me.
"I–I don't know any–ything" Ned stutter slightly meeting my gaze.
He's getting better at lying.
"I know you're lying Ned." I deadpan.
"MJ can we please watch the movie, I didn't come to visit you to talk about Peter." Ned said looking at me pleadingly.
"Okay fine. I'm sorry. I'm just confused. No more Peter" I assured while scooting to my right so Ned could lay down on the bed with me.
I'll give you guys a little update on what's going on with me.
I was transferred to a normal room after 3 days in intense care(after MUCH complaining on my behalf). I'm still in Stark Industries(or The Avengers home). Stark gave a really nice room. My 'bedroom' is bigger than my home and it has very high tech. Everything looks super expensive and every time I walk into the room, it takes my breath away.
Stark wanted to make sure I was as comfortable as possible. I still have a nurse at my service but at least now she's not glued to my hip 24/7. I have an intercom that I use if I need help. I mostly have issues getting out of bed because of my leg. So she usually comes every morning at around 8 to help me up and she also brings me breakfast and books to read.
Ned tries to come as often as he can, but coming here is at least an hour in New York's HORRIBLE traffic.
He often comes Wednesday's, Friday's and the weekends. We mostly watch movies, eat, or sometimes play games.
I haven't seen Peter's face in almost two weeks and I try to not let it hurt my feelings failing miserably most of the time.
"Anyways were you able to turn in my class assignments?" I ask Ned.
Yes I did not forget about school, I still need to be a scholar!
"Yeah I did" Ned said while shoving popcorn in his mouth.
"I haven't receive any new mail with homework and class work for 2 days, is something up with the school?" I asked.
"No, the reason why they haven't send you anything is because you're three weeks ahead of schedule. MJ they sent you a month worth of assignments and you finished it in 3 days. They just thought it would take you.... I don't know maybe a MONTH like any normal human to complete the work they gave you." Ned said looking at me smiling
"No wonder there was a lot of work. I was so confused. It makes sense" I said shaking my head.
"Only you will manage to finish it in 3 days" Ned exclaimed shaking his head.
"Well I have nothing to do here. I'm stuck here all day and I get bored" I said.
"How many more weeks are you staying here?" Ned asked.
"I start therapy tomorrow and I will for the next month so I will be back in a month. It just depends on how quickly I recover" I said shrugging.
"Are you scared for therapy?" He asked.
"A little. I just don't want this leg issue to affect my grades and transcripts" I said truthfully.
"You'll be fine. You're one of the smartest people I know" he smiled sweetly.
"Thanks Ned. How's the decathlon team?" I asked.
"They're doing alright. We get your notes and tasks every week, but since you're not at school, Flash has decided to boss everyone around as if he were captain. It's super annoying, he thinks he owns everyone. Typical dick behavior" he said.
"I was thinking of hosting a meeting here at the Avengers Tower. I don't want to be slacking off simply because I'm not school. I want to make sure everyone is on track. We start completions next semester, and we need to stay focus. I will ask Stark if I can host it here and I'll keep you updated" I said.
"That will be dope. Imagine Flash's reaction when you tell him that you'll be hosting a decathlon meeting at the Avengers Tower. He will shit his pants" Ned said laughing.
"Very accurate" I said chuckling.
"You'll think Parker will show up to the meeting?" I asked hopful
"If he doesn't show up on a regular school schedule, it's not likely when his avoiding you" Ned said and then his eyes widen.
"So he IS avoiding me. I knew it!" I said pointing my finger at his direction accusingly.
"To be fair he made me SWEAR not to tell you" he said.
"I give up with Parker, if he wants to show up to the meeting good for him and if he doesn't I don't care" I said facing towards the tv.
"Don't say that. You care. A lot" Ned said looking at me sympathetically
"If he doesn't care then why should I?" I said harshly.
"Because he cares deeply and so do you." Ned said.
"Well maybe I shouldn't. It would save me a lot of headaches" I said coldly.
"And it would save him a lot of heartaches" Ned whispered.
"What do you mean?" I said snapping my head towards his direction.
"Nothing MJ. You said no more Peter and here you are doing exactly that." Ned said looking at me.
"I guess I do care after all" I whispered softly.
It is FRIDAY! You know what that means.... NEW chapter! I really hope you enjoy it. I can't believe that about this time next Friday I'll be an official high school graduate.
