Peter opened his locker and hid behind the door so that he could stare at you without detection. All you were doing was printing something off a campus printer, but you made it look like an enchanting performance that had Peter captivated by your every move. Peter had been in college for three months now and found himself pinning for you for most of that time. You hadn't spoken yet, but he held out for the day that you would.

"Who are you staring at?" Ned asked at full volume, making students passing by look and laugh at Peter.

"Would you keep your voice down? Jesus. Everybody heard that." Peter whispered harshly and checked to make sure you hadn't heard Ned. Ned followed Peter's gaze and when he saw you, he smiled deviously.

"Oh. I know who you're looking at." Ned said as he raised his eyebrows up and down.

"I can't help it. I love it when she wears her hair like that." Peter sighed and leaned his cheek against his locker door as he continued to stare at you.

"You say that every day."

"I know." Peter sighed again and watched as you flipped your hair over your shoulder. You seemed to move in slow motion as you pulled your hair to one side so you could take a sip from the water fountain. Peter smiled dreamily as he watched you until you accidentally made eye contact. Peter quickly turned around so you wouldn't see him staring.

"Do you think she ever stares at me?" He asked Ned.

"I think you'd know if she did. You know, since you're always staring at her."

"Ugh. You're right. Why won't she ever look at me?" Peter whined and shot another look at you.

"Have you tried speaking to her?" Ned asked. "Or are you hoping she'll get the hint through your spider telepathic abilities?"

"Ned, for the last time, I do not have telepathic abilities. If regular spiders aren't telepathic, then why would I be?"

"You say regular spiders aren't telepathic with such confidence but how would you know? How do you really know?" Ned asked and shook Peter's shoulders.

"Oh my God." Peter groaned and turned back to look at you. He watched you laugh at something your friend said and wondered how amazing it would feel to be the one making you laugh.

"Do you think it could ever work? Do you think I could ever have a normal relationship with these stupid abilities?" Peter asked quietly as he stared at you.

"They're not stupid, Peter." Ned assured him. "I would kill to be telepathic."

"I'm not telepathic." Peter groaned and looked down at the web shooter that was peaking out from his sleeve. He knew it was unrealistic that he could ever have a normal relationship and sighed wistfully. Ned looked between you and Peter for a second and felt a pang of sadness for his friend.

"I think it could work. You and her, I mean." Ned told him.

"You do?" Peter asked skeptically and shut his locker.

"Yeah. I do. Who says your abilities, telepathic or not, have to stop you from having a normal relationship? As long as you treat her right and don't hurt her, it would work."
