Peter wasn't the same the next day. Or even the next week.
At first he looked like he was sulking. But then after a few days, he got back on schedule like a regular teenager. He was doing his homework and getting perfect scores on Spanish tests.
Obviously Spider-Man wasn't around as much though. The streets would talk about where Spider-Man was, but I knew all along.

And no, I still haven't confronted him about it. Because of the fact that he has hardly talked to me. He's barely even looked at me. Ned keeps apologizing and MJ just keeps telling me that he's an asshole and to not care.
But I do.
I want to know what's going on inside that head of his but he's almost as stubborn as I am. Every time I walk towards him in the hallways, he walks the opposite way.
Even his aunt May has called me to apologize. She was picking him up one day after school and saw that he just completely ignored me.

What did I do?
Did I do or say something that I shouldn't have? Why couldn't anything just be okay with us again. I don't even care if it's just a friendship. I want him back.

But, since I've had time to myself, I have worked on my powers. A lot. Pretty much everyday. Since I finish all of my homework as soon as I get it, right when I get home, I start training.
Wanda actually came over a few times and helped, so did Aunt Nat.
As well as the others. Sam, Vision.
Sadly mom hasn't been able to see me. She's still working I guess, as always...
But even uncle Steve got word and has video chatted me almost everyday now. He says that he can't tell me where he is at the moment, but that him and Bucky are safe.
As sad as I am that I can't physically see them and wrap them in a big hug, I'm secured when I know that they are safe.

But I can do a lot of crap now. Muahahahaha!
Well first off, I can now control my speed. Took a little longer than expected on that, but I did it.
I also have super strength. We figured that power out after Sam tried to take the remote from me... it wasn't a very good moment for him.
I also have super healing powers, which seem pointless at times since I can barley get a scratch on me. I'm not kidding when I say that Aunt Nat, Sam, And Vision fought me all at once... I came out of that fight without one tiny scrape.
The true mind blowing part about this entire thing is that when I went up against Wanda, we couldn't beat each other. Her magic seemed almost like a smoke, a deep red that could take over everything. Mine was purple, but instead of my powers looking like smoke, it looked like a billion little beams of lights. Wanda said that at a point, my eyes were even glowing.

How crazy is that? All of this?
That one day I was normal, for me, then the next I'm like this. Hell, not even like this. I was that other thing before, but this is something completely different.
Dad says that he still has no clue what that alien gem was related too, but whatever it was, it was extremely powerful, and that it's a miracle it merged with my cells.
He's obviously still busy, still worried as hell. Something has been on his mind lately that he refuses to talk about, but I want to say it's something to do with Peter.

It's no coincidence that once the ferry incident happened and Iron Man showed up, Spider-Man went away and dad is acting pissy.
Obviously dad told peter something to make peter stop, which just makes me upset. What could peter have done that is so bad? Obviously dad thinks it's Bad enough for him to take away Peters right to help others.

"Meribella!"
My head shot around instantly as I saw Ned and Peter walking my way.
Peter of course had his head down, and Ned was the one who called out for me.
"Hey." He said as he tried breathing in big breaths from the tiny run he just took to get to me faster.
"We are all gonna go get our tickets for the homecoming dance. Are you coming?"

Homecoming. I had completely forgotten all about it, and yes, I wanted to go. But what was the point of it?
Peter would be ignoring me, and Ned would obviously be with peter.
MJ would just be hating on the party the entire time and as much as I love her, I'd want to have fun and not hear bickering the entire night.
"No, I'm not going."

Peter actually looked up at me. His eyes finally met mine and they filled with something I'd never seen before.
"Why not?" He piped up.

A scoff left my mouth before I could stop it, as did words that were mumbled.
"I didn't think you cared."

Even though it was silent, I knew peter could hear. Super hearing, obviously he'd catch it. And I certainly noticed when he did. He seemed taken by surprise, then shot his head down as his eyes went a little darker than usual.
"I'm gonna go." He mumbled, walking passed us and not bothering to look back.

I heard Ned sigh.
"Did something happen with you two? Project Peterella was on such a good path. Then it all went to dust."

Peterella?

"No Ned. Nothing happened, I'm just as confused as you are but... I think it's good if I give him his space. I think that's the only thing he wants from me..."
we both stared down the hallway peter walked out from.
I was hurt. Peter and I were good, always, since the moment we both met.
I wanted him back. So damn much...

I turned back to Ned with a small smile on my face..
"Peterella?"
