(Reece's POV)

The day went by slow as usual. After Peter and I bought lunch with Happy's money, we found our way to our table where Ned was already there waiting for us. "Hey, what did you guys get on the English quiz?"

"I got a B." Peter answers, opening his yogurt cup.

Ned then looks in my direction. "F." I respond without thinking.

"Reece!" Ned exclaims, his eyebrows raised.

"What? I forgot to study..." I lie, grabbing my straw to put in the chocolate milk carton I get every day.

Ned opens his mouth to respond, but that's when my friend Alex slides into the chair next to me. She told me today in French that she got her schedule changed and that she'd be joining us in lunch today.

"Hey." She says to me before nodding at Peter and Ned, the acknowledgment a hello.

"Hey." I respond before taking a sip of my milk.

Peter and Ned stare at Alex like she was some sort of impossible being. I guess no one ever really sits with them, so they were kind of bewildered. "What-" Peter begins but I cut him off.

"Peter, Ned, this is my friend Alex." I introduce her before they get a chance to ask what the hell she was doing here.

"Hi." Alex gives them a bright smile.

"Hey." Ned smiles back.

Peter responds with a, "Hi," as well.

"My lunch got switched." She explains for the guys, since they were obviously unaware of the situation.

"Oh..." Ned says, nodding along. "Cool."

"Hey!" A loud, random voice sounds throughout the cafeteria, making everyone's head turn to look at the boy who yelled. He was standing in the middle of the room, staring in our direction. "Penis Parker!"

I raise my eyebrows in total utter confusion, turning my head to look at Peter. He had his head down, his face a bright red, staring at his food. "What the hell did he just say?" I ask.

"This is for screwing me on the Earth Science final!" He shouts, clearly angry at Peter for something related that to that class.

But before the kid could do whatever it was he was going to, with my mind, I picked up the empty food trays from the kitchen and they came flying at him. One smacked him right in the face and he fell over. The whole lunch room erupted into laughter as the kid tried to get up from off the ground. "Who threw those?!" He screamed, his attention no longer on Peter. "Was it you?!" He points at a random kid in the lunch line. "I'm gonna beat the shit out of you!"

And then a teacher came in, shutting the whole thing down and bringing the kid to the office before he could beat anybody up. I look over at Peter again who was already staring in my direction. There was a huge grin on his face, but his eyebrows were furrowed with question.

I give him a sly smile and winked, so he knew I was the one who threw those trays across the room using telekinesis. "Dude, someone's sticking up for you!" Ned exclaims, nudging Peter in the shoulder.

"Yeah..." He responds with a smile, making eye contact with me again.

"What did you do to get him so worked up about the Earth Science final?" Alex asks, quite intrigued.

"He asked me for the answers to copy off the test, so I sent him the wrong ones so he wouldn't cheat." Peter shrugs.

"So, you were kinda doing the right thing!" I point out.

Peter nods, never taking his off of me. "Kinda."

Peter and Ned had Academic Decathlon after school so I was forced to walk home alone. Peter insisted on skipping but I lied and told him Happy was picking me up. I didn't want to be the reason why he'd skip out on something.

Back at the Avengers tower, as soon as I got there, Tony brought me down to his lab so we could discuss my mission, so he could show me cool shit he has, etc. That took up most of the afternoon, but that didn't really bother me considering I had nothing else to do.

But when Tony had sent me up to my room because he had 'business related' things to work on, I found myself growing bored. I sat at my window seat, spacing out as I gazed at the incredible view. I let my mind wander and eventually, my thoughts started to get to me.

Tony still wasn't done hacking the flash drive, and the whole thing was starting to give me intense anxiety. I moved from the window seat to my bed, realizing I didn't want to be alone anymore. So I texted Peter, even though it was nine o'clock at night. Tomorrow was Saturday anyways, so who cares?

Me: Hey, can I come over? Feeling a little anxious about the Cuffman thing.

Spidy Pete: Yeah, of course.
Do you need me to pick you up?

Me: Nope, already on my way

I shove my phone into my back pocket, open my window, and begin to climb down the wall. I then get a text from Tony and Dana reads it out loud for me. "Tony asks 'sneaking out again?'"

"Tell him, yes I am." I tell Dana as my feet hit the ground and I start jogging towards the fence.

"Tony asks 'at least tell me where you're going?'"

"Tell him, to hang out with Peter Parker." I respond and jump over the gate as if there was nothing there at all.
