You put down your phone on the table, sighing. Frankly, you had never been more confused in your life. Across the table in your corner booth, Peter was picking at the corner of the menu. For twenty minutes the two of you had been sitting here, waiting for your friends to show up.
“I think we’ve been stood up by our friends…” you said apprehensively, looking up at Peter. His head snapped up when you spoke as he took in what you said.
“Why would they do that?” he frowned, leaning against the back of the booth.
“I don’t know. But Betty said they were in traffic and Ned said they haven’t left yet. Plus, we walked here from my place and I’m pretty sure they both live closer,” you replied.
In all honesty, you had a rough idea of what was going on. The day prior when Betty had left a cryptic message that she was arranging something to do with Peter. Now, she and Ned have conveniently not shown up. Is that what she meant yesterday?
Peter had a thoughtful expression on his face. Maybe he was putting together the same pieces you were. Who really knew what went on inside the mind of Peter Parker?
“Yeah, I think we got set up.” he finally said, running a hand through his hair. He has really nice hair, you mused.
“I’m seriously gonna murder Betty next time I see her,” you murmured,
“I’ll help you hide the body?” Peter offered, somewhat helpfully.
“Oh what would I do without you Pete?” you smiled. You had a habit of doing that around him.
“Probably get arrested for murder.” He replied, his eyes twinkling as a smile tugged at his face.
“Perhaps,” you shrugged, “Well, what do the third and fourth wheel do when they get ditched?”
“I mean, I can walk you home if you want? Or I guess we could both stay here, and get some lunch?” Peter suddenly seemed very engrossed in the salt packets he was arranging in front of him.
“No!” You said, almost a little too fast to be considered normal. “We should just make the most of it, you know? I’ve heard the fries are great here.”
“Really? Um, cool! Yeah for sure, let’s stay.” Peter replied. The waitress came around and asked them if they were ready to order. You got some kind of sandwich (with fries of course) and Peter had gotten a grilled cheese. You both had decided on sharing a comically large chocolate milkshake.
For a minute, Peter was fiddling with his hands, not touching his food. He spoke up, his voice quieter than it was before.
“I, um, wish this was different,” he said tentatively, like he was admitting a secret of some sort
You raised an eyebrow, looking up from your plate, “What do you mean? Like in the scenario we didn’t get ditched by our friends?” you laughed dryly.
“No, not that,” he started, “Like that we’d be here together not because we were ditched. Just us.” The tips of Peter’s ears had turned pink, and he quickly averted eye contact. He was fidgeting with his sleeves, a typical habit of his whenever he was nervous.
You paused hearing his words. Just us, echoed in your mind, bouncing around your brain. Was this really happening? Did you take an extra melatonin last night and now you were dreaming?
“Please say something..” Peter added. You snapped out of your daze, and blinked at him.
“Is that some convoluted way of asking me on a date?” You finally replied. God, you hoped so. Your stomach twisted thinking about him saying no. The embarrassment alone might drive you to an early grave.
“Um, yes? Look, I’m sorry if that’s weird, and you don’t have to say yes, but I really like you-” Peter began to ramble. You stopped him by reaching across the table and putting your hand on top of his.
“Yes. I will go on a date with you, Peter Parker.” You smiled, no, beamed at the man sitting across from you. You would have no way of knowing, but Peter thought he might faint.
"Wait really?" he said, looking at you like he expected you to laugh in his face at any moment.
"Yes, really." You replied, and you had truly never been happier.
