After everything Y/N has endured-the blackmail from Kate, the love triangle with Liz, and the chaos of the Blip erasing half the world-he hopes this school trip to Europe will finally bring some clarity. With Peter, his longtime crush, by his side, Y/N sees this journey as the perfect chance to confess his true feelings.
But expressing emotions isn't easy, especially when words feel inadequate. That's where his new song, "Afterglow," might help-a melody that captures every emotion he's been unable to say aloud. Yet obstacles remain: summoning the courage, navigating lingering secrets, and untangling a love triangle that threatens to resurface at the worst possible time.
Will Y/N find the strength to bare his heart and let Peter know the truth? Or will secrets, timing, and unresolved feelings leave him in the shadows of what could have been?
"Tell me that you're still mine, Tell me that we'll be just fine"
y/n met peter parker one time at the one of the university bus stops & shared a pizza with him in the rain. he seemed like the nicest kid & so when y/n sees peter in the hospital only a couple weeks later looking like a shell of the boy she'd once met, well, y/n's always felt a calling to helping people. so why not help peter parker? plus, he's super cute so that also is a huge help.
to put it plainly, y/n loves helping other people & feels some sort of connection to a curly-headed kid with one arm that she hardly knows, peter is tired & can't seem to catch a break & is kind of an asshole. & it would seem that even though felicia & peter broke up & were never even really together, felicia still has some plans for the two of them. also no one likes gwen stacey, mj takes up a new hobby called vandalism & y/n's roommates get arrested for something they didn't do.
