i'd be a fool not to love you

part twenty two - the bridge

i woke up at peters house, after sleeping on his bedroom floor.

"hey sleepyhead" he chuckled, typing on his computer

"you're doing homework?!" i grumbled "peter it's so early-" i said as i looked over towards the clock, "oh- maybe not so early" it was 1pm

he chuckled, "i made you some food- breakfast, dinner, whatever you want to call it"

"thanks pete" i said as i got up and made my way over to his desk to take the plate, which had a piece of toast piled with banana on top.

"you're welcome" he said as i rested my head on his shoulders and put my arms around him

"so what homework are you doing?"

"just chemistry"

"shoot"

"don't worry it's not due until next week"

"no. no i'm not talking about that. peter, jules."

"shoot shoot shoot" he exclaimed as he got up from his computer and put his suit on, turning me to face the other way.

"how could we forget?! we were supposed to be there half an hour ago!!" i said as i changed into an outfit as quick as possible

"ok, ok calm down" he said as he rushed to open the window, and then he swung us out of it once we were both dressed

as we got to the hospital, pete changed in the same place he did the day before

"hello! hi sorry i'm here to pick up jules madden?" i said as i made my way over to the front desk

"you're forty minutes late." the woman gave me an unimpressed look

"right uh, traffic" i pointed to the road outside

"hmm. ok well mrs madden is in there" she pointed to a room to the left of us

"thank you"

"jules!!" i ran to hug her as peter followed

"hi honey, bit late aren't you? hi peter" she smiled

"right, sorry about that, traffic. but how are you?! are you okay?!" i broke the hug

"i'm fine love" she chuckled "so, where's my ride? is may outside?"

shoot. i looked at peter, concerned. and he scrunched his face up

"oh um about that we forgot to bring a car"

"you walked?!"

"um yeah. i'm so sorry i didn't think"

"olivia you mean to tell me you walked 20 miles?!"

"we got a taxi for half of the journey.."

"i'll call may" peter interrupted

"alright, you donuts" jules laughed

when may arrived, we led jules out to her car, which was parked outside of the hospital

"hello may!" i said as i helped jules get into the car

"hi olivia, jules oh my god are you ok?"

"i'm fine may" she laughed

then, i noticed peter was gone

"you guys go on without us, i think me and peter are going to spend the day out"

"okay, see you both later" may and jules said

"bye" i smiled as i shut the car door

"PETER?" i called

"ONE SECOND" he called from behind a bush

then he came out in his suit

"what is it?"

"somethings wrong, i have to go"

"you can't leave me?!"

"you can come with me but just don't interfere, okay?"

"promise"

when we got to the bridge, there were people screaming and running, this wasn't good.

"OLIVIA GET OFF THE BRIDGE" peter shouted as he moved toward the figure who was causing all of these people to flee.

"oh my god" my jaw dropped as i saw what was before us
