" May will be at night shift. " Peter informed to no one in particular as he walked down the hallway with his two best friends on either his side.
Y/n knew why he was mentioning it. She knew he gets horrible nightmares that keep him awake for ours and sometimes, he won't even go to sleep due to the blip.
May would always wake him up, but when she was at night shifts, it was always horror for Peter. Y/n sighed through her nose and grabbed his arm.
" Tell me, Parker. What would you like? Chicken or Veggies? " Peter looked Y/n confused. " Chicken, duh! Why are you asking me that? "
" I can't ask you a question? " She questioned again and Peter rolled his eyes, a small smile on his lips. " Wierdo. " He muttered, causing Y/n to slap his arm playfully.
" Nerd. "
" I'm still here. " Ned cleared his throat snd Y/n giggled. " Than, talk Ned. Where's your usual ramble about Star Wars today? "
And then Ned started talking about this New Star Wars lego set while the three ate. Y/n would steal glances at Peter as usual, to see if he was sad or worried again.
Her phone binged and she glanced st the text.
May: Hey, N/n! If it isn't too much, will you come over later and stay the night with Peter? I'll be on night shift and I don't want to leave him alone.
Y/n: Sure, May. You don't have to ask.
" Who is it? " Peter's voice interrupted Y/n and she looked up, sliding the phone back in her bag. " Oh, just a text from my aunt. "
Y/n dismissed him, which Peter found pretty wierd. She didn't have an aunt, what was she talking about? He thought but shrugged it away.
He was only worried how he'd spend the night. He was debating whether spend the night patrolling or try and sleep.
But would he be able to? Would the nightmares let him? He wondered. He sighed audibly, which caught Y/n's attention.
Y/n started to talk to him now. He knew she was trying to make him feel better, and it was working. He was very thankful Y/n always lightened the mood by saying some corny jokes.
" It's so corny. " Peter would say and Y/n would always shrug. " That's why it's so funny. " She'd reply.
He hadn't realised Y/n was holding his hand, rubbing small circles on his knuckles with her thumb. Her touch was lingering and relaxing. He found all his worries fading away as he focused on the touch.
The bell rung and eventually, the three parted ways to their classes. Peter had instantly missed the touch as Y/n got up and grabbed her bag.
As the day carried away, it was final bell and Y/n had dashed out of the classroom, she wasn't planning on telling Peter she would be coming over later.
