With a crush bone hug, Ned greets us at Vernon Boulevard. The summer weather and the light breeze is comforting to my skin, it's been a while since I don't wear a spaghetti strap shirt. NY weather is a complex thing. The three of us pull away and I notice the tan skin of Ned's face and as always, the wide smile.
"Man, I missed you both so much!" He makes a happy jump as he sighs bringing his hands to our shoulders "How is my New York Duo doin'?"
I turn to Peter and then back at Ned "Missing our guy in the chair, that's for sure"
Ned pushes Peter aside and he hugs me again, my air escaping my lungs but I return his grip
"Come on! the show's going to start" Peter hurries us and we start walking inside the park, where the bustle of people talking and laughing and the peculiar smell of fried food is reigning
"What's the name of this park again?" I curiously peek at the stands beside us, looks like a carnival
"Queensbridge Park... Peter and I used to come here each week because there was this girl that ran through all the park... oh! this bench right here, we sat here to-"
"Wait for her to show?" I finish and Ned proudly nods but Peter slaps his shoulder
"We were eleven..." Peter mutters raising his hand in guiltlessness and I snort
I look to the open area, hundreds of people playing and running, some preparing a picnic, families, and friends and all the way to the end of the park there's a medium stage with lights and sound system.
"What's this?" I point to the arrangement
"SummerStage Festival? you don't know this?" Ned motion us to stop and to seat on the green grass
"Uh... no... should I?" I whisper and at the same time we sit crossing our legs as I bring my hands to the cold grass
"I don't blame you, you don't live in Queens but this thing here is what normal people do" Ned spins his backpack to the grass and settles comfortably to see the view in front of us
"I'm normal!" I exclaim and both turn to look at me like 'you're not serious sister'
"One of Ned's favorite artists are going to play in... ten minutes" Peter flexes his leg and rest his arm on top of it
"Oh my God... Axl Rose is coming?!" I open my mouth agape and Ned snorts
"HA! I wish! but this is more street music Tannie... you'll see "
I shrug and start cutting the tips off the grass
"Hey! almost forgot...! got you presents!"
"Niceeeee" Peter rubs his hands in anticipation and Ned turns to him with a hurtful expression
"...For a moment I think you are more excited for the souvenirs than me actually being here"
"Bro! of course not... give me five" Peter offers his hand and Ned smirks, their secret handshake...
"Aw, what a lovely bromance!" I sigh while bringing my hands to my heart
"Stop, you had him for almost two months! let me enjoy my quality time!" Ned playfully nudges me "So... talking about quality time... how was your quality time?"
"You could stop saying quality time..." Peter begins and then looks at me across Ned
Ned and Peter begin a little conversation, he dramatically narrates him what we did in Boston, our stress, our little adventures, of course keeping the part of cuddling together and me wearing his clothes. I limit myself to breathe the fresh air and to eavesdrop what they're talking about, snorting every once in a while, suddenly a baseball ball lands on my lap and I take it and start searching for the owner.
