Peter's P.O.V

Peter walked along the street to school, fiddling nervously with his fingers as he walked. He got to the school and smiled as he saw Ned and Michelle on the steps.

"Hey, Peter. You excited for the trip?" Ned smiled.

"Yeah, but first, I need your help." He spoke, looking between them.

"Help with what?" Michelle asked.

"I stopped a bank robbery yesterday, but got shot in the process and damaged my suit, and Karen said I need a soldering iron to fix it, so I need to sneak into the wood tech room and-."

"Wait, go back, woah, you got shot?" Ned scoffed.

"Yeah." Peter shrugged. Ned and Michelle looked at each other.

"Okay, apparently ignoring your brush with death, where do we come into this?" Michelle asked.

"Ned, I need you to come with me and help fix the suit, MJ, I need you to stay here in case Y/N shows up before we're back and starts asking questions." He spoke.

"And why can't I go to the wood tech lab with you? Is it because I'm a girl?" Michelle asked, cocking her head to the side. Peter's eyes widened.

"What?! NO! Of course not, you're just closer to Y/N than Ned is!" Peter exclaimed.

"Relax, Peter, I'm just messing with you." She smirked. Peter sighed and nodded before looking at Ned.

"Let's go." He nodded before heading into school, Ned following behind. They walked through the school corridors, looking around cautiously at the empty hallway. They headed into the technology department and walked into one of the classrooms before looking around.

"Ned, can you keep watch or something? This may take a while." Peter sighed, walking to one of the desks and putting his backpack down before digging out his suit.

Y/N's P.O.V

I walked to the school gates and smiled as I saw Michelle, waiting by the school bus.

"Hey, nerd." Michelle smiled as I walked towards her.

"I thought that that name was reserved for Peter and Ned." I chuckled.

"No, it's reserved for nerds. You, my friend, are a nerd." She stated, making me laugh.

"Speaking of which, where are Peter and Ned?" I asked, looking around.

"Um, they went to the bathroom." She shrugged as Mr Harrington walked towards the group.

"Alright, everyone, everything is on the bus and ready to go, is everyone here?" he asked.

"No, sir, Peter and Ned are in the-."

"We're here!" I turned around and smiled as they ran out of the school doors and down the steps.

"Hey, you." I chuckled at Peter as they jogged towards us.

"Hey." He puffed.

"You okay?" I asked slowly. He looked at me and nodded.

"Why wouldn't I be?" he asked.

"You just look very panicked for someone who only went to the bathroom." I spoke. He just shrugged.

"I knew that we'd be leaving soon, so I had to hurry." He nodded. I returned it and chuckled as I climbed onto the bus, Peter following behind me.

"Alright, we're here, everyone off the bus." Mr Harrington spoke as the bus pulled into the clearing in the woods and stopped. We got off the bus and my eyes widened slightly as I looked around.

"Wow, this place is beautiful." I gawped, looking up at the trees.

"Where we're staying looks okay too." Michelle nodded. I looked up and took in the sight of the log cabin hotel that sat in the middle of the clearing. I wasn't going to lie, it did kind of look like one of those motels that you saw in the movies, the ones where every room led to outside instead of a real hotel, only in the style of a log cabin.

"Okay, pair up, two per room, needless to say no mixed-sex rooms, so boys pair up, and girls pair up." Mr Harrington spoke. I chuckled as Michelle immediately grabbed my arm and Peter and Ned looked at each other.

"We're going to have such a good time, we're going to buy junk food, and watch movies, and it's going to be awesome." Michelle smiled as she grabbed a key off of Mr Harrington before pulling me up the stairs.

"I never pinned you as a girly sleepover type, MJ." I chuckled.

"Oh, I so am, I just never got the chance before meeting you, since I was stuck with those losers." She smirked, looking at Peter and Ned who were trailing behind us.

"Hey!" Ned exclaimed, making Peter smile as we stopped at our door, the boys moving past us to the next door along. My breath hitched slightly and butterflies formed in my stomach as Peter gently put his hand on my waist as he passed, the outdoor hallway a bit too slim for him to get past without a little bit of contact.

"You okay there?" Michelle smirked as she unlocked the door.

"Shut up." I grumbled, making Michelle laugh as she shut the door behind us.

"So, where are we going?" Michelle asked, lying on her front on her bed as I stood in front of the mirror, applying a layer of lipstick.

"I saw a cute little coffee shop in the village that we passed on our way here. We could check that out." I nodded. My eyebrows furrowed as I got no response from Michelle. I looked at her to see her smirking. As usual.

"What's got you smirking this time?" I sighed, turning back to the mirror.

"Who are you getting all dolled up for?" she asked.

"It's 2019, MJ, you of all people know that a girl doesn't have to get made up for anyone else other than herself." I chuckled.

"I know, and normally, sure, but I find it hard to believe that you're putting makeup on for yourself when we're next-door to, and about to go out with Mr Peter "Y/N's crush" Parker." She chuckled. My eyes widened and I looked at her in the mirror.

"I do not have a crush on Peter." I scoffed, shaking my head as I put the top on my lipstick and shoved it into my bag.

"Then you'll be fine with knowing that Cody has a crush on you." She admitted. My eyes widened and my head shot up to look at her.

"Sorry, what?" I scoffed.

"Yup. Well done, you've got two guys chasing after you." She chuckled. I gulped, holding my hands to my head. Well, this was a freaking disaster. Not like I would ever admit this to Michelle, but I did like Peter, more than just a friend. So, the last thing that I wanted was him thinking that I liked Cody just because he had a crush on me.

"Do me a favour, don't tell Peter about Cody." I gulped as I sat on my bed and pulled my shoes on.

"Why not? Because you don't want him thinking that you like Cody back?" she asked. I sighed.

"No, I just...you know how over-protective Peter can be. Don't get me wrong, it's sweet, but I just, I don't want him thinking that there's something between Cody and I, when there's not." I scoffed.

"Alright. For you, I won't tell Romeo." She chuckled. I returned it and shook my head as I stood up and grabbed my bag.

"You coming?" I asked.

"Yeah." She nodded, standing from the bed and grabbing her bag. I headed out of the room and knocked on Peter and Ned's door. It opened to reveal Peter, making me smile.

"Hey." He chuckled, leaning against the doorway.

"Hey. MJ and I are going to the village that we went through to get here, because I saw this little coffee shop. You two coming?" I asked.

"Um, yeah, sure." He nodded, grabbing his jacket, Ned doing the same as they headed out and shut the door.

"Let's go." I smiled.

The four of us walked through the village, looking around at the shops as we walked.

"So, where's this little coffee shop, then?" Peter asked, his hands in his jacket pockets as we walked.

"I swear it was somewhere around here." I sighed, looking around. Peter's eyebrows furrowed as he looked at me.

"Y/N, are you...wearing lipstick?" he smiled, looking down at me. I looked at him.

"I am, Peter Parker. But why are you looking at my lips, weirdo?" I chuckled. His eyes widened slightly and his cheeks flushed red.

"I-I wasn't, I just happened to notice that something looked different." He shrugged, looking down. I chuckled and shook my head before looking around.

"Ah, stop, this is it!" I exclaimed, putting my hand against Peter's chest, making him blush harder and stopping him in his tracks so that we were stopped in front of the café.

"Looks nice enough." Michelle nodded as we walked in and looked around.

"What does everyone want?" I asked, getting my purse out of my bag.

"No, that's okay, I'll pay." Peter shrugged.

"Don't be silly, my treat." I smiled.

"Can you two stop flirting and just buy the drinks already?" Michelle asked, making Ned laugh as Peter and I blushed.

"Four hot cocoas, please." I smiled to the barrister before handing over a ten-dollar bill. Peter and I got the drinks and took them to the table that Ned and Michelle had picked, next to the window.

"This place is so beautiful." Michelle sighed in bliss as she looked out of the window.

"What happened to the depressing and miserable MJ that we all know and love?" Peter teased, making Michelle flip him off as Ned and I laughed.

"I have to agree, though. I love the city, but there's something very peaceful about being in the middle of nowhere, in the middle of a valley." I shrugged.

"That peace is about to be broken." Michelle mumbled as she sipped her drink.

"What? Why-."

"Oh, hey, guys." I looked up and groaned internally as Cody walked in.

"Hey." Peter mumbled as he looked down.

"Didn't think I'd see anyone from school here." He chuckled.

"You're not the only one who has an eye for chic little cafes in the middle of a valley." I smiled, making him laugh. Out of my periphery vision, I saw Peter scowl at Cody as he laughed.

"Y/N, can I talk to you for a moment? Alone?" Cody asked. I sighed and stood up.

"Wait, Y/N, you're not actually going, are you?" Peter scoffed.

"I'll be right back." I reassured, giving him a small smile and making him sigh as I followed Cody out.

"So, what did you want to say that you couldn't in front of my friends?" I asked, crossing my arms over my chest.

"How about we go off and do something by ourselves? Ditch those guys, come on." He smiled. My eyes widened slightly.

"Cody, no. I'm hanging out with my friends, I can't just ditch them." I scoffed.

"Sure, you can, Y/N. Let's go to the movies or something." He chuckled. I sighed and looked down.

"Okay, I'm going to nip this in the bud. MJ told me that you like me, and I have to tell you. I'm sorry, but I don't feel the same way, Cody." I admitted. His smile dipped slightly and he looked into the café.

"It's Peter, isn't it?" he asked. My eyes widened.

"What?" I gulped.

"You like Peter, not me. And that's okay, I just want you to be honest with me." He sighed. I returned it.

"I'm sorry." I nodded.

"It's okay, Y/N. Have fun with your friends." He gave me a small smile before walking away. I sighed before heading back into the café.

"What was that about?" Ned asked as I sat back down next to Peter.

"Oh, nothing." I shook my head, giving Peter a small smile as I sipped my drink.
