Kept Secret (Peter Parker x Male reader)

3.

You were currently sitting during luch, in company of MJ, Ned and.. Peter. You obviously wouldn't chat much in the presence of your beloved (irony) Parker. In fact you didn't talk at all, you were just barely listening at what they were saying. They actually asked you why you didn't talk but you brushed it off. Not wanting to answer to that. However, by the look of Peter, you could tell that he knew it was his fault. You didnt feel guitly though. After all, you were here for the only reason that MJ asked you to. And you wanted to please MJ, because that's what friends do right ?

So here you are, boring as ever, waiting for lunch to be finally over. Your next class is chemistry, and you remember that you have your project with mister genius Peter. You hated the fact that you had to do it with him. You just hoped he wouldn't come to you to ask you to work with you again. But knowing him, it's more likely that he won't. You were sitting in class listening to the teacher. But you noticed that paper were flying in class. This is so immature you thought. You also noticed it was directed at Peter. As much as you hated him, you thought it was stupid and he didn't deserve that, no one does. You looked at who was throwing the papers. It was Flash. He was so dumb. Thinking he's the best all the time and just bullying Peter all the time. Why did you care about that anyway. You hated Peter so wathever. But you couldn't stop being annoyed. No one deserved to be made fun of. And let's be honest, Flash is a dick.
Chemistry was over and you headed to your locker. Taking and shoving sruff in my locker. Peter was just beside me. As I was going to my class I heard a loud sound behind me. I turned as Flash pushed Peter against his locker. Making fun of him again. Calling hip "Penis Parker" it was dumb honestly. 

"Ah Flash, still lame I can see." I said, interrupting him from bullying Peter. He focused on me. "Oh you don't want to be involved in this L/N." He said menacingly. "Oh really ? You know I don't care about you, you're just stupid, the only sensible thing about you is your love of Spiderman. Otherwise you're juste a dick" I said jaded. "Well creep the only thing about you is being saved from Spiderman, otherwise you're just worthless." you grew more and more angry at him. To the point where you would just punch him. You weren't aware of what you were doing. You think you just broke his nose. You bring you hands on your mouth "Oh shit- I'm sorry" you gasped. "Yeah well you broke my nose, you won't get away like that." He just ran away after saying that. Peter looked at me completely confused. "Why ? Why did you help me, and punch him on top of all things, I thought you hated me." He asked completely lost by your actions. "I don't know okay, it just seemed unfair, no one deserve to be bullied, even someone I despise." I responded. "And why do you hate me in the first place ?" He questionned like this was a question he had for a very long time, finally getting out. And yet again you didn't know. You hated his stupid face, the fact that he was some kind of genius, or maybe the fact that he is always nice to you even though you were not to him. You kinda felt guilty, after all he didn't do anything wrong. But you couldn't admit it to him. You could'nt admit to anyone that you were wrong. That maybe he wasn't so bad. You would feel like a fool and you didn't want that. "That's none of your business." You snapped coldly at him while you turn on your heels to get to your class.

Days passed and you got less and less agressive toward Peter. You still wouldn't act nice to him but there was progress. And Peter was happy about it. In fact, while you where at you locker you noticed Peter smiling happily. "What with the good mood ?" you asked. "Oh nothing" He just responded happily while going to his class. You were really confused but what can you do about that. If he's happy then it's a good for him. 

You also got more talkative around your group of friends, you wouldn't just listen to MJ, Ned and Peter talk. You would also talk yourself. Well, mostly to Ned and MJ but your responded when Peter adressed you some words. You weren't being rude is all. But this day wans't so bright. The principal called you to his office. It turned out Flash was right about not letting you go easily. You were expulsed for a week. This was bad news. Especially with your parents. They weren't especially strict but they had their limits, and you crossed it. You got out of the principal office. People looking at you, whispering. You walked towards the exit since your expulsion started now. But first you needed some stuff from your locker, so you turned back. Everyone were looking at you, you felt so uneasy. You got your stuff and before going you where stopped by Peter. "I heard about what happened. Flash is a jerk. And don't listen to them, they don't know what their talking about. Plus they will forget about it as soon as you come back." He said sympathetically. "Yeah, well, thank you" you said softly, smiling sadly at him. Not letting him respond you just got out of the school and got home.

Saying that your parents were furious was un understatment. They were truly angry at you for being expulsed for a week because you broke someone's nose. They taught you better they told you. Well it was true. But you were just angry and you didn't contain yourself. That's it. That's what you told them but they were still angry. You were grounded for a while. Which was understandable. But you were still really upset buy the whole situation. So you sneaked out of your room, getting on the roof of your apartment. It wasn't that tall anyway. You let your legs dangling in the void. You just needeed some fresh air. And you could use a friend as of now. But your parents took your phone, so that's not happening. As you were deep in your thoughts. You saw a familiar figure swinging around. It was Spiderman. Seeing him made you smile. You saw him getting closer, you were confused why. He landed just beside you. You were even more confused but happy at the same time. "So, how ya feeling since last time ?" He asked his happiness in his voice. "Well great I guess, expect for today. And you, don't you have saving to do ?" You asked one of your eyebrow furrowed. "I just finished my patrol and I saw you so I thought I would check on you. No more trouble with shady men uh ?" He smirked, you assumed from the tone of his voice. You chuckled, shaking your haid no. "That's great, so what about today ?" He looked at me waiting to anwser. "Well I got expulsed for a week from school because I broke some asshole's nose for bullying someone." You simply said, annoyance in your voice. "I see, you helped someone at least, that's nice." He anwsered. "Yeah but the thing is, I did it for someone I dislike, I don't even know why I did it" You confess. "Is that so ? Why do you dislike this person ?" He asked, he seemed highly interesed for some reason. "Well I don't know either, I always thought I hated him, but maybe I was wrong, I mean I never did anything wrong to me so I don't know. I know it's weird." you confessed. "Maybe you should give him a chance, maybe you'd grow liking him !" He said cheerfully. You looked at him smiling, you were happy to have him right now, it helped you got things out of your chest. "Yeah, one of my friend told me the same, maybe you're both right. But I don't feel confident to do it now, you know ? I've been mean to him for a while so I prefer waiting." you said a bit ashamed at yourself for have acted this way with someone for no reason. "Take your time, I'm sure he'll appreciate that you actually are better to him." After that you both talked for a while. It was late in the night. You were happy. After all you were casually talking to a super hero, you felt super special. And he was really nice to you, you liked that about him. You got to know a bit eachother, not to much so he wouldn't reveal his identity. You learnt that he loved Star Wars and science, he was basically a big nerd. You shared some interest, for exemple you both liked Tony Stark. 

To be frank you were also jealous of Peter to be an intern of Stark Industry. But what can you say. You're not a genius like him. You didn't noticed but you smiled a lot while talking to the spider hero. But he noticed and he was really happy to see you smile like that. He felt special too, he really don't see you like this at school. He wanted to protect this smile. Both of you could hear the sirens of the police. "Guess duty is calling, it was nice seeing you" he said softly. "We should see each other again." He added. "Wait really ?!" you asked excited. "Yeah really, I'll try to find time after patrols, so what about we meet here ?" "Sure !!" you whisper-yell not to wake up anyone. He waved at you before swinging away to where he needed to save people. You sat here for a moment smiling to yourself before going to bed. This wasn't too bad of a day after all you tought.
