Badass Peter Parker. That's all that needs to be said.

TW: sexual assaults and fighting
---

Another day another beating from Flash. Ned asks me all the time why I take them when I am stronger than a literal god. But he doesn't understand that if I stop being Flash's punching bag, someone else will be. I can't knowingly risk someone else's safety just to protect myself.

Besides I can take him. His punches are pathetic and he misses most of the pressure points.

Except for today.

"Peter oh my god your bleeding."

Yep thanks for pointing out the obvious Ned. Damn I am grumpy when I am hurt.

"Yeah I realized that." I mumble, taking Meds outstretched hand and pulling myself away from the lockers. Students file past up like we aren't even there.

Highschool is shit.

"You should go to the nurse."

"Ned I'm fine."

"But you're bleeding Peter. You need-"

"I said I'm fine." Shoot I didn't mean to snap. I hate it when I make Ned upset. The way his lip quivers and his eyes train to the floor make me feel like a crap friend.

"I'm sorry. I'm just fed up of his shit. I'll go to the nurse. You go enjoy the rest of lunch."

With that we part ways, Ned heading of to the canteen and I to the dreaded nurses office.

"Well well well what do we have here." My enhanced hearing picks up the oh so familiar sneers that are normally directed at me.

Shit.

"Leave me alone Flash." Female and familiar. Who is he targeting now.

"Fuck anymore guys yet. I heard you get around alot." What a dick.

"That is not true and you know it." Betty! That's Betty. The sweetest girl in our year. What the hell is Flash thinking?

"It would be a shame if that rumour spread. I'll keep quiet if you do something for me in return."

"I'm not doing anything for you." She snapped. I edge closer to the corridor that is always inhabited by Flash and his goons. Betty must be one of the poor souls who's locker lies within the lion's den.

I hear the bang on a locker followed by a terrified whimper.

"You will do whatever I say."

My senses go haywire and by the muffled sobs I can tell what is going on. Rage clouds my vision as I storm into the corridor and rip Flash of Betty.

In one swift movement he is lying on the floor at the intersection. Students gather round the archway, watching the confrontation unfold.

"What the shit Parker!" Flash yells, getting to his feet with shaking balled fists.

"I have no problem with you attacking me. But I will not let you take advantage of anyone else." I say as calmly as I can.

"And what are you going to do to stop me Penis. You are a weak, pathetic orphan who is completely worthless." He pushes me up against the locker with an evil smirk.

Something inside me snaps. In a heartbeat Flash is on the floor, lying face first on the scuffed vinyl flooring. His arm is twisted to breaking point, drawing cries of agony from the boy.

I let him go, thinking he would have learnt his lesson.

Oh how wrong I was.

His leg swung under me and I toppled to the floor. Flash sat on my stomach, pinning me as he repeatedly punched my face. Black dots swirled in my vision but I forced myself to stay conscious.

'remember your training. What did Auntie Nat tell you?' Muscle memory took over. My hand latched onto Flash's throat taking him by surprise. I squeezed just enough to stop his punches, then flipped us over. I landed three calculated punches: two to the chest and one to the nose rendering him completely senseless.

"You won't go near another student again, you understand me?"

Stupidly he tried to attack me once more, so I yanked him up and threw him against the locker, pinning his arms.

"You understand me?" I hiss in his ear, flinching at the malice in my voice.

Flash nodded, a nervous whimper escaping his quivering lips. My knuckles are coated in a thin layer of blood which, by the looks of his face, is Flash's.

I feel a forceful pair of hands yank me off Flash and an infuriated voice yelling at me.

But one look at Flash makes it all worth it.

No regrets.

I love badass Peter Parker. I refuse to believe Peter wouldn't stand up to Flash or break at some point. No one is humanly capable of putting up with Flash's bullshit for that long.
