(This is fourth grade by the way)

"Who can solve this problem for us?" the teacher asked, writing numbers on the board. She then turned back to the class. A minute or so later, a hand shot up in the air, "Eugene?"

"40!"

"I'm sorry Eugene, that is incorrect."

Eugene slouched in his seat, muttering, "It's Flash!"

Peter looked at him nervously before raising his own hand.

"Yes, Peter?" the teacher said.

"Um... 42?" Peter answered.

"Correct! Good job, Peter!" the teacher turned back to the board.

Peter smiled, however, this faded as soon as he glanced at Eugene, who was glaring at him.

Peter and Ned were walking down one of the halls of the school, on their way to the cafeteria.

Suddenly, Peter seemed to trip on thin air. He steadied himself, but looked down at the floor. He noticed the laces on his shoes were untied. "Go ahead without me, Ned. Save our spot! I'll meet you there after I tie my laces."

Ned nodded, "Okay, Peter, see you soon!"

About a minute later, Peter managed to tie his laces. He stood up and began walking down the hall again. However, he was stopped when someone stepped in front of him. "Oh, hi, Eugene!" Peter said, trying to be nice.

"My name is Flash!" 'Flash' said, shoving Peter into the wall.

Peter looked up at Flash, eyes wide. Flash had always been rude to Peter, but he had never hurt him physically before.

"M-my p-parents won't be h-happy that you pushed me," Peter stuttered.

"Do you think I care?" Flash scoffed, kicking Peter's shin, "I don't care that Iron Man is your dad! You are nothing like him! And if you ever think about telling them... you'll see what happens. Got that, Stark?"

Peter bit his lip nervously, but nodded. Flash walked away, satisfied.

Peter stood up and resumed his walk to the cafeteria. However, he couldn't stop thinking about what Flash said. You are nothing like him! Tears glistened in his eyes as Peter walked into the cafeteria.

Ned smiled when he saw Peter, but it immediately turned into a look of concern, "Hey, man, you okay?"

Peter put on the best smile he could muster, "Yeah, dude... I'm fine."
