the two boys awoke the next morning to peters alarm clock, peter groaning whilst flash yawns and stretches, still half asleep (that was until may banged her fist in peters door very loudly shouting for the boys to 'get their asses out of bed').
after spending time getting ready, shyly blushing from each side of the room as the other was getting dressed (and secret looks from both boys) they finally exit the room and grab some breakfast before heading out the door to flash's car, a "thanks may!" from eugene and "thank you may, i love you." from peter, kissing the top of her head.
the two boys sat in their car, already finished with breakfast as they walked down the apartments stairs. there was a silence that hung in the air as neither boy wasn't sure what to do or say, until peter broke the silence, "so last night? what happens now?"
"i mean, in other relationships, i suppose this is where i ask if you wanna be my boyfriend?"
"yeah i wanna be your boyfriend." peter smiles widely.
"don't you think this is going too fast though?"
"we haven't even kissed yet, so i'd say we're fine, as long as we're comfortable." flash nods his head, starting the car driving to school. "so are we gonna like tell everyone or what?"
"i mean people will be questioning why the hell i'm in a car with you... maybe we should just act as we would if we were any other couple?" peter suggests as they get out of the car, and as he said, he was right, they got a lot of stares, confused to why peter would be in a car with someone who bullies him. flash moved round next to peter and intertwined their hands.
the stares didn't stop when they walked inside the halls, "do you need to go to your locker?" peter asks flash.
"no, do you?" peter whispers a yeah, feeling very overwhelmed at all the eyes on him. everyone watches as the two go to peters locker, watching peter holding all of his books, flash soon taking them out of his hands to help peter. once peter closes his locker, flash still holding his books, saying he wanted to carry them for the other boy, he grabs flash's hand. they make it to peters classroom, the people inside nosy at the two as flash hands peter his books. he wraps his arms around the smaller boys shoulder and kisses the top of his head, "have a good lesson, i'll see you later petey." flash smiles and walks off leaving peter a blushing mess as he takes his seat next to ned (everyone's eyes still pretty much on him as he struggles not to smile). "dude? what?"
"i'll explain later man..."
//////////
the end of the day soon cane round and flash was leaning against his car, next to peters side, peter jogged over to the car, giving flash a hug, eyes still not leaving them, chatter all around them. "how was your day?"
"weird but alright, how about yours?"peter questions which he responds with the same.
"my dads not home so i'm gonna go back tonight."
"yeah, tony said he wants me at the compound..." peter gives a small smile.
"i can give you a lift?" just as peter was about to answer his phone buzzes.
happy:
kid i can see you, hurry up, boss says it's urgent.
"i- thanks but happy's here, i should probably go."
"text me?"
"of course." peter smiles giving flash another quick hug. he slightly backs away, but he finds himself leaning in, his hands making their way to either side of eugene's face. peter pulls away smiling, scratching the back of his neck, quickly walking to happy's vehicle, sighing as he gets in the back.
"what was that about?" he says smugly.
"nothing!" peter now red-faced buries his head in his hands.
