You tailed behind MJ, Ned, and Peter, distracted by the news projected on your phone. That was before you smashed into something.
“What the hell?” You muttered. Looking up, you caught the commotion, Flash had put up some nasty posters about Peter. But not just him, MJ too. It was all over the school. MJ pushed past everyone and went straight to her first class. Peter and Ned sighed, then turned to you. “What?”
“Well, shouldn’t ya know? Talk to her.” Ned asked as he continued on his way to the lockers on the other side of the hallway.
“Why? I mean you guys have known her for longer, Why me?”
“She likes you more.” Peter murmured as he flung his books around his locker, rummaging for his physics book.
“I doubt that, she has never talked to me unless you guys where there.”
“Trust me, that’s better than her commentary. She likes you, well, more than she likes us, I guess.” Ned encouraged as he shoved some snacks in his bag.
“How can you even tell- hey, can I have some of that?” You asked, gesturing to the pop tarts Ned was taking out of their locker. “I didn’t eat breakfast.”
“Yeah,” He gestured to take it. “As long as you talk to her.” He continued as you made a grab for it.
“Yeah okay, no problem.” You sighed, “See you later.”
It was lunch and MJ hasn’t shown up.
“Did you talk to her?” Peter whispered.
“Haven’t seen her to talk to her.” You sighed, picking at the shitty salad in front of you. They gave you a look. “Okay, okay.” She trashed the salad and went on her way to find MJ.
You found MJ, sitting on the swings at a park a couple miles away. “Hey, uhm, how was your day?”
MJ looked up briefly before looking back down. “Why did you come looking for me?” MJ muttered.
“Because you’re my friend, I guess.”
“Really?! Cause you never talk to me.”
“Well you haven’t either.” You pointed out, “look, uhm,” You sat in the next swing. “I guess you intimidate me. You’re gorgeous, smart, you don’t give a shit about what others think about you and I-I, well I don’t know, you are so so confidant. And I don’t know I really admire that. I just... I mean Flash doesn’t know you at all, so why would anyone believe the shit that comes out of his mouth.” You finished.
“You really think of me like that?”She murmured.
“Well, you’re pretty cool too.”
“It’s getting cold, want some company on your way home?” You questioned with a head tilt.
“Yeah, I’d like that.” She grinned at you, with teeth and all.
The walk was quite, but not as awkward as you would’ve thought.
“Thanks, by the way, you know, for walking me home.”
“I enjoyed this.” You grinned, looking down with a smile. She started her way to the door.
“Hey, uhm, I mean you’re very pretty and I don’t know...” MJ cut herself off and walked quickly towards you, cupping your face and bit her bottom lip. You gave her a questioning look before getting a rush of sensation. Her lips where on yours and her smell rushed your senses. Before you could comprehend what was happening, she was gone. You grabbed her wrist, pulled her back to you and kissed her again. Behind your eyelids, there was a flash. MJ pulled away and your eyes pried open to find out that Peter had taken a picture.
“Delete that.” You whispered. “Peter fucking Parker delete that!” You yelled. MJ grabbed your elbow.
“No, I’m not ashamed of you. I just don’t want Flash to have another reason to go after you. I hate seeing you being treated like that.” You replied.
She smiled, kissed your cheek and then agreed to meet you half way to school tomorrow.
“Honestly I couldn’t give less of a shit what he says. I just didn’t want you to think of me like that.” She murmured.
“You know what though, let’s baffle him yeah?”
She raised her eyebrows questioningly. “What do you mean?
“You’ll see. See you later, babe!” You turned and headed to class.
“REALLY?!” Flashes scream was heard throughout midtown high.
