peter  parker  is  not  someone  gwen  stacy  ever  missed  in  the  corridors.  she  likes  the  way  he  carries  himself  ,  the  energy  he  exudes.  she  never  misses  an  opportunity  to  greet  him  &  even  tries  to  engage  in  small  talk  with  him  when  she  can  !  but  even  for  someone  as  observant  as  gwen  stacy  ,  she  doesn’t  see  his  earbuds  or  hear  his  music  right  away.  she’s  already  babbling  a  greeting  before  she  realizes  that  alt  -  j  is  blasting  from  his  earbuds.  before  she  could  even  get  his  full  attention  ,  he  nearly  crashes  into  her.

gwen  gives  him  a  small  smile  ,  one  that  reaches  her  eyes  ,  &  replies  ,  ❛  just  a  few  minutes.  ❜  her  finger  grasp  her  books  tighter  &  she  sways  a  bit  in  her  spot.  ❛  i  just  wanted  to  say  hi  ,  see  how  you  &  your  aunt  were  doing.  you  were  listening  to  alt  -  j right  ?  i  don’t  listen  to  his  music  a  lot  ,  but  from  what  i’ve  heard  of  it  ,  it  is  pretty  cool.  anyways  ,  how’re  you  doing  peter  ?  ❜

uh yeah ! i was listening to them, house of the rising sun. ❜  he offered a glimpse of his phone, though it dropped back to his side clasped by his fingers. one of the peers of his he could actually say he got along with. other than ned, of course. gwen posed to be a good friend, at least in peter’s mind. he’d never had a negative thing to say about her, plus she was extremely smart. even smarter than him if anyone asked.  embarrassment is still fresh on his face, though a hand comes to brush back his curls.

❛ aunt may is good. ❜ a basic answer, though nothing ever changed with may, not even her love life. ❛ i’m definitely uh … doing okay. aced my physics test. ❜ useless information followed as he attempted to shake off his annoyance at himself for being terrible at talking, or just being social in general. ❛ what—— what about you ? how’s your parents, or your entire family ?
