gwen  observed  him  quietly.  he’s  jittery  —-  well  ,  moreso  than  usual.  &  if  gwen  didn’t  know  him  well  ,  she  probably  would’ve  passed  it  off  as  normal  behavior.  she  doesn’t  comment  on  it  ,  just  letting  him  doing  his  thing.  she  lets  herself  get  lost  in  her  thoughts  ,  until  he  starts  stammering  &  her  attention  is  back  on  him.

image

her  eyes  widen  ,  but  she  lets  a  broad  smile  take  over  her  features.  ❛  —-  yeah  ,  yeah.  ❜  play  it  casual  ,  stacy.  even  if  you  are  exploding  on  the  inside.  (  her  smile  is  probably  betraying  her  right  now  —-  gwen  can’t  help  it  ,  she’s  ecstatic.  )  ❛  when  &  where  ?  ❜

❛  that worked ?  ❜  the words flowed right out before he could stop them.  not that he was complaining that she said yes. his heart was  P O U N D I N G  in his chest with anticipation. a laugh followed, though huffed in relief. ❛  i uh —— i didn’t mean it like a bad thing.  ❜  his clearance was still followed by a grin.

image

when ? that was a good question.  ❛  are you … are you busy tonight ? i don’t have the internship or anything. i still have physics homework to do but … that shouldn’t really take long if um … you want to go out tonight.  ❜  he didn’t want to pressure her on it with his own excitement, yet he still couldn’t find it in himself not to stammer.

image

❛  i don’t think that’s a real thing.  ❜  peter remarked, though humor remained laced in his voice. hoping he wasn’t taken too seriously, he continued with, ❛  it might be, but it sounds a little too far fetched. i’m no genius but … i wouldn’t buy into it too much.  ❜  his hands shove into his pant pockets, leaving a loose shrug in response. / @dangerdefied + sc

image

❛  me ? i’m good. totally - totally good.  ❜  he stammered, failing to really grasp the concept of the question how are you.  peter’s face showcased his utmost stress, though he would always continue to deny it.  it was his specialty.  ❛  this uh … the europe trip coming up. packing is really uh … stressful, you know ?  ❜ / @hcpefell + sc

image

❛  what the HELL?  ❜  peter called aloud, body now drenched in the aftermath.  so much for europe being a getaway.  instead of walking away, he’d practically thrown himself into the mix.  classic, peter.  ❛  what exactly is going on ? what are those things ?  ❜  / @illlusioner + sc

falls asleep with her head on his lap !

he’d almost fallen asleep himself, though he’d jolted awake at the end credits of the movie from the familiar star wars tune. it was almost 2 in the morning and he hadn’t even realized the study session had turned into more of a movie night. as peter nearly decided to raise himself from the floor, he felt a weight on his legs that nearly frightened him till he saw gwen, fast asleep. 

gently, he relaxed himself back trying to be as slow and quiet as possible. should he have woken her up ? probably. instead, he turned off the television and tugged a blanket down from behind him to cover her. using the same blanket to cover himself, he relaxed back and found himself drifting off just as quickly but peacefully.

💕 ahh idk if I sent this but ahh

to say he was taken off guard was an understatement. he found himself with his lips pressed against hers right as the canons went off with confetti around them in times square. was it spur of the moment ? did it actually mean something ? or was he just the closest person? he stood there for a solid few seconds, blinking and completely shocked, yet it didn’t stop him from getting out, ❛  happy new year ?  ❜  though the grin that slowly rose to his face was certainly far from fake.

@hcpefell

peter hesitated, falling back on his feet as he rocked back and forth. his heart pounded within his chest, which carried the sound straight to his eardrums. ( you can do this, pete, just ask ! ) yet it seemed to be much harder than he thought.

image

❛ i um … i was uh … ❜ he stammered, voice trailing off in a quiet ring of stutters before he let out a shaky sigh. ❛ gwen do you uh … maybe want to um … go on a um … date ? with me ? ❜

     it  didn’t  matter  what  the  kid  wanted  to  be  called;  to  eddie?  he  was  a  kid.  changing  his  mind  was  going  to  be  difficult  as  hell,  which  meant  there  was  no  point  in  it.  at  the  question  all  he  can  think  about  is  the  dude  they  ate  about  15  minutes ago.   ‘  nah.  no  crime.  everything’s  good  here.  ’  

image

something  didn’t  seem  to  register.  ❛   you  sure ?  no  car  thieves ?  crazy  weapons  deals  taking  place ?   ❜  a  bit  of  his  spidey  sense  made  the  arms  raise  on  the  back  of  his  arms  but  everything  seemed  fine.  ❛  no  like  really  .  .  .  something  seems  a  little  off ?  i  can’t  name  it  but  .  .  .  it’s  something.  ❜

❛  hey  ,  bug  boy  ,  ❜  gwen  says  ,  a  smile  creeping  on  her  face  as  she  says  it.  she  reaches  over  and  gently  grabs  his  hands  ,  ❛  you  look  nervous.  ❜  which  ,  in  reality  ,  is  probably  not  saying  much  when  it  comes  to  peter  parker.  for  once  ,  however  ,  she’s  genuinely  concerned.  ❛  what’s  got  you  so  worked  up  ?  ❜

@spldertm  gets  some  softness

peter  laughs  quietly  at  the  nickname.  that  was  a  first.  ❛   i  think  the  correct  term  is  web -  head.   ❜  the  joke  is  light  soft  as  just  as  the  grin  that  followed.  ❛   nothing,  just  uh  you know  .  .  .  spidey  stuff.  internship.  an  accumulation  of  life.   ❜   his  hands  gently  squeezed  hers  in  response.  ❛   but  it’s  cool.  i’m  good.   ❜

He didn’t owe her anything, she knew that much— and the last thing she wanted was to make him feel GUILTY about her wanting to spend time with him. She kept her eyes on his for a few moments, as if expecting to read his expression before she nodded, a small smile on her lips then. Maybe he cared a lot about her to think about following through. “— they don’t PAY you?” She asked, canting her head to the side. All the time he spent over there was good for his college applications, for sure. “If you’re sure—“ she added with a small smile. “There’s this new Korean barbecue place I’ve been DYING to try for a while now, if you wanted to go there?”

❛ Barbecue sounds great. ❜ Peter nodded, pushing aside the hint of worry. It’d be easier to multi-task right? He could keep an eye out while spending time with Gwen, right? It’d be easy. ❛ The internship? Yeah uh … I don’t get paid. It’s not like —— I mean, I knew that going into it. I really enjoy it though. I don’t really mind it. ❜ Which wasn’t a lie. Peter thoroughly enjoyed doing his patrolling and doing his job as Spider-Man. It had more benefits than just money. ❛ I mean, it doesn’t bring in money, but that’s why you don’t quit your day job right? ❜ A laugh followed, though Peter wouldn’t lie and say he enjoyed his actual job as a pizza delivery boy. It was probably his least favorite thing to do.
