Peter grabs the handles on his refurbished bike and begins to ride toward Middleton High School. Peter parks the bike in front of the school.
The beginning portion of the day was completely normal for Peter and his friends, until 4th period, or Peter's lunch hour.

Peter, Ripley, Steven, and Carl sit at a table in the cafeteria...
Peter grabs his homemade lunch out of his bag.

Ripley "Guys have you talked to C.J. recently, he's tweaking since that Rihanna concert got canceled."

Carl "I never understood his obsession with her."

Peter seemingly jumped out of his distracted daze.

Peter "Guys... I'll be right back..."

Steven "Where are you going?"

Peter stands up and begins to leave the table.

Peter "Like I said... I'll be right back."

Peter begins to walk backward until quickly turning, unknowingly to him he mistakenly walks straight into a girl walking behind him.

Peter "Oh my god... I'm so sorry Ms.?"

??? "Mary Jane Watson..."

Mary Jane begins to blush at Peter.

Peter "I'm so sorry Ms. Watson."

Mary, it's ok... "

Peter "Oh uh... P-Peter Parjer."

Mary Jane well then it was nice meeting you P-Peter Parker, see you around..."

Mary Jane smiles sweetly toward Peter, then walks away.
Peter continues his way out of the cafeteria.

Carl "He is such a strange guy..."

Steven "Tell me about it..."

... Peter In the hallway...

Peter walks through the halls towards Dr.Otto Octavius's classroom, he enters the classroom and sees Dr. Octavius sealing to another student. Around Peter's height and age.

Dr.Octavius "if you turn in the notes from the video it should bring you up to a B... Ok Mr. Wayne?"

Kevin Wayne "Thank you Doc!"

Dr.Octavius nods at Kevin.

Kevin Wayne turns to leave the classroom but bumps into Peter.

Kevin "Hey Pete!"

Peter "Hey Kev."

Kevin "See you tommorow!"

Peter "yep..."

Kevin Wayne leaves the classroom and Peter walks up to Dr.Octavius.

Dr. Otto Octavius "Hey there dear boy!"

Peter "hey doc..."

Dr. Octavius "something wrong Peter?"

Peter "can we go into private real quick?"

Dr.Octavius "sure thing... right ahead..."

The two enter the back office.

Dr. Octavius "so what's up? Do you need my help or somthing?"

Peter "yes I do..."

Dr.Octavius "well what is it... you got me on pins and needles here..."

Peter "ughhhh um well I need help with the fact I'm Spider-Man..."

Dr.Octavius "what?"

Peter "the guy from the news..."

Dr. Octavius "are you ok peter?"

Peter "I'm fine... why are you asking?"

Dr. Octavius "no I mean you sound insane."

Peter "doc... I'm being honest... I'm begging for your help... please..."

Dr. Octavius "fine... what do you need?"

Peter "I need an electric proof suit and these..."

Peter hands Dr.Octavius the Oscorp Blueprints.

Dr. Octavius "how did you get this?"

Peter "I uhh... stole it..."

Dr.Octavius smirks at Peter.

Dr. Octavius "ok kid... I'll work ok these wristbands during the day and after school you can come here to help with that suit... now get back to class."

Peter "thank you doctor."

Peter walls out of the classroom and heads back to the cafeteria.

Dr. Octavius "idiot kid... gonna get himself killed..."

Peter enters the cafeteria once again. He walks to his table and notices the table had become livly. Mary Jane Watson, Elizabeth Allen, Cindy Moon are all sitting at his once lonely table.

Peter "what's going on?"

Ripley "when yo left Mary Jane and her friends asked to sit at our table so here they are..."

Mary Jane Watson "Hoe you don't mind..."

Peter "oh no... I don't mind."

That lunch was one of the best for Peter and his friends, he felt whole as if he had people actually there for when he falls. Everyone laughed at least once during this period.

...Transition Time between 6th and 7th period...

Peter and Cindy walk down the hall to Dr. Octaviuss classroom.

Peter "what's wrong?"

Cindy "huh?"

Peter " you where so talkative at lunch... now you are dead silent?"

Cindy "oh uh I feel a little under the weather..."

Steven Petty runs up from behind Peter and Cindy.

Steven "HEY you two are you both ready for the two week christsmas break?"

Cindy "oh hey Steven... yeah I'm..."

Peter "estatic..."

Cindy "just the word I was looking for... definitely."

The three students enter the classroom and sit at the same table together.

Cindy "I'm happy I met you two... it was so lonely in here..."

Dr. Otto Octavius " for everyone who just walked in... today is a free day... oh and Mr.Parker... I'll meet you in my office."

Eter mods at the doctor as he nods back. Peter stands and begins to walk to walk toward the office.

Steven "Pete? Where you going?"

Peter "I'll tell you later..."
Peter enters the office to see the grappling wristbands sitting on Octvius desk, tee door closes behind him.

Peter "they are smaller than the blueprint depicts."

Dr. Octavius "slight modifications... now you will not notice them while wearing."

Peter "you are the best..."

Dr. Octavius "that's been well established..."

Peter ok what about the suit

Dr.octavius "let's get working..."
