Peter has a big secret.

No, he's not hiding a dead body in his basement, no he's not tucked snugly in the closet, and he isn't on the run from any high tech organization from Russia.

What he does have is a condition called epilepsy. It's one of his demons, and he just can't get away from it. Anything he does seems to trigger another episode into happening, and he's sick of it. He can barely make it through a school day without nearly passing out from trying to hold off a seizure.

"Psst.. Peter."

Peter looked to the side to his best friend, Ned. He raised a single eyebrow is question, his brown hued eyes drilling into Ned's.

"What?" he whispered. The bigger boy grinned cheekily.

"You're mom gay," was followed by a snort.

Peter rolled his eyes and punched his friend in the arm before turning back to his homework. He scribbled a few numbers down on the thin sheet of paper when a dizzy spell washed over him. His stomach dropped and he felt his eye twitch, followed by his finger.

As seconds passed by in a blur, Peter's arm jutted out at an awkward angle, followed by his neck. His arm then retracted to his chest, his wrist flattening his hand out against his sternum. A strangled noise emitted from his throat as his neck went from side to side, jerking back and forth.

Ned looked over at his friend, eyes widening when a foot kicked his shin harshly. What the fuck was going on?

"U-Um Mr. Brewster? I think s-something's wrong with Peter..." he called out, hand raised. The teacher looked up and nearly choked at the poor boy's appearance.

"Aw look, Penis is pretending to have a seizure!" Flash laughed, pointing towards said boy. What the bully didn't know was that it was real. He only wanted a tad bit of attention, and using Parker's little freak out was his main source.

"Oh shut the hell up, Flash! I think he's actually having one!" another student replied. Flash just rolled his eyes and sat back in his chair, kicking his feet up on the table.

Peter's knee raised and slammed his foot onto the ground before his hand slapped himself in the face. His eyes were rolled back into his head and he jerked his neck, veins popping out against his paled skin. His middle turned violently so he was half sideways in his chair and his back bent awkwardly.

Even Flash was getting worried now. Was this real?

"What do we do?" a student asked worriedly. Mr. Brewster only shook his head, mouth agape with shock.

"I think it's best we let him ride it out, yeah? Is that what you're supposed to do?" Even the damn adult was in the dark.

Seconds turned into minutes and soon eight of them had passed by, and Peter's seizure was finally starting to calm down. He wasn't thrashing nearly as bad as before and he was sunken down in his chair. His pupils became visible again after a couple more seconds and a relieved sigh escaped his lips.

"I- uh... sorry," he stuttered out, pressing a hand to his forehead. "They're usually not that bad."

"Bro, what was that?" Ned asked fearfully. He had scooted his chair away a bit during Peter's episode, and was now only brave enough to get closer.

"I-" Peter started, an embarrassed blush tinting his cheeks. "I have epilepsy, it means I get unprovoked seizers..."

"Holy shit," a student said, followed by gyms of agreement.

"Do you need to go the nurses?" the teacher asked timidly. Peter shied away, pressing his face into his hands.

"I.. I think I'm just gonna head home."
