(Y/n's pov)

I really enjoyed Thursday night with Peter in the city, and despite how much studying we actually ended up doing I think we both did pretty well in the test. I was helping my mom with some housework over the weekend so I didn't see my friends, but I texted Peter and MJ a little. However, I was still happy I'd be seeing them back in school today.

I met Ned and MJ at the front gate, but I didn't see Peter, which was strange because he's barely ever late.

"Have you guys seen Peter?" I asked, my tone a little worried.

"Why, afraid little Petey's gone lost on his way to school?" MJ said, sarcastically.

I just rolled my eyes, "Fine, if one of you guys is missing or dead, I won't worry."

"Hey calm down y/n, MJ was just kidding," Ned gave a wide-eyed look at MJ, "besides, I'm sure he just overslept or something. He'll be fine."

I nodded and headed for class.

I snuck into my bag during English and grabbed my phone to text Peter;

Me: Hey Peter, why aren't you in school?

I hesitated for a while before looking back down.

Me: Are you ok?

The message read 'delivered' so I just hoped Peter would see it and answer. This was so unlike him. And I know I've only known him for a month but he's my closest friend so I guess I had some responsibility to look out for him.

I called Peter at lunch but it went to voicemail. And again. And again. And again.

"Y/n, you have to stop worrying. His phone probably died and he's sick or something."

"Look Ned, I know you're trying to be optimistic, but I'm trying to look out for my friend."

I guess Ned had given up at this point because he just looked at MJ, shrugged, then back down at his lunch. Peter wasn't answering, nor did he turn up to school for the rest of the day. I texted him again when I got home, then asked Ned for May's phone number, so I called her.

"Hey May, it's y/n."

"Oh, hey! How are you?"

"Umm, I'm ok. Is Peter there."

"No, he said he had some extra-curricular activities after school."

Lies, but I didn't want to worry May so I kept quiet.

"Oh ok, so he's ok then, he's not sick or anything?"

"Uh not that I know of, why?"

"Oh, no reason, I just didn't have him in any classes today and he wasn't answering my texts."

"Well he's been answering mine, I'm sure he's just really busy."

"Yeah, sure. Okay then"

"See you soon then y/n, bye!"

"Bye-" she hung up.
