A/N: Hey guys! Spider-Man: Into the Spider Verse is my favorite movie and I've watched it like ten times! Anyway, watch the video, it's really cute and then there's a REALLY hilarious part too, so you actually have to watch, not just listen!
Payton's POV, One Month Later
You and Peter are on your way to school, about to get off the train. He's glued something on his phone, though.
--
Tony: Hey, May. How you doing? What are you wearing? Something skimpy, I hope.
[Peter turns to Tony with a frown on his face. Tony chuckles and pats Peter's shoulder, whose face now wears an uncomfortable smile.]
Tony: Peter, that's inappropriate. All right, let's start over. You can edit it.
Peter: Mm-hmm.
[Looking at Tony, Peter chuckles.]
Tony: Three, two, one. Hey, May. My gosh, uh, I wanted to tell you what an incredible job your nephew did this weekend at the Stark internship retreat. Everyone was impressed.
[Tony is putting on a solemn face. Peter offers the camera a wide-eyed, tight-lipped smile, trying to look innocent.}
Peter turned the screen to you. "Hi May, Peter was super helpful today! He helped me organize files in the lab!" You smiled up at Peter and then continued to look out the window. Suddenly, we hear a loud honk.
Happy: Come on! It's a freaking merge. (to Tony) I'm sorry.
--
Looking over his shoulder, you see him looking sadly at the video he made when we went to Germany. I guess they never called him. He then opened his messages and sent yet another to Happy, who always complained to you about how he felt bad for not responding on the way to school. You'd usually go with him, but you had slept at Peter's house. You guys had counted the party as your first date, but aren't official yet. You definitely wanted to, but hadn't gotten around to the conversation yet(will be explained later).
Hey Happy just checking in. I'm out of school at 2:45 PM
Ready for my next mission!
It's Peter BTW.
Parker
He scrolls through numerous unanswered messages to Happy. Poor Peter. WAIT! Oh shii, we're in Spider-man: Homecoming!! We got off the train and walked up the steps to Midtown. That means... Almost immediately, a car almost hits you and Peter and you push him out of the way in time.
Flash: What's up, Penis Parker? Students chuckle at that
Payton: Nothing much, Dickless Flash frowned and went to go park on the side of the school. Bye bitch!
[A school news report is playing in the hallway with Betty Brant and Jason Ionello, the news anchors.]
Betty: Rise and shine, Midtown Science and Technology.
Jason: Students, don't forget about your homecoming tickets. Do you have a date for homecoming?
Betty: Thanks, Jason, but I already have a date. LMAOOO I CAN'T-
Jason: Okay.
Betty: Yeah.
[On TV, we see Jason rolling his eyes awkwardly.]
Principal Morita: Good morning.
[A teenage boy flies a drone around the crowded hallway. You guys walk by. Principal Morita grabs the drone out of the air.]
Principal Morita: Damn it. You, in my office right now. Salty ass Morita.
The drone pilot follows the principal. Other students carry elaborate science projects. Peter stops at his locker and takes off his jacket. He enters the combination and opens the locker. Suddenly, a person pops up behind him. NED! With the Death Star! I love knowing things! And whaddya know, it's Ned Leeds holding a Palpatine Lego figure over Peter's shoulder.
Ned: (imitating Emperor Palpatine) Join me, and together... we'll build my new Lego Death Star.
Peter: What?
Cheerleader: So lame. Rando bitch.
Payton: So is cheer! She scoffed and walked away.
Peter: No way! That's awesome. How many pieces?
Ned: Three thousand eight hundred and three.
Peter: That's insane.
Ned: I know. You want to build it tonight?
Peter: No, I can't tonight. I've got the Stark-
Ned: Mm-hmm. Stark internship.
Peter: Yeah, exactly.
Payton: Y'all get way too excited over this. I'll help, Ned. But only if you buy me food! I'll do anything for food!
We start walking down the hallway, on our way to Spanish.
Ned: Always got that internship.
Peter: Yeah, well, hopefully, soon it'll lead to a real job with them.
Ned: That would be so sweet.
Peter: Right?
Ned: He'd be all, "Good job on those spreadsheets, Peter. Here's a gold coin."
[Peter gives him a look.]
Ned: I don't know how jobs work.
Peter: That's exactly how they work.
Someone taps you shoulder, making you jump out of your skin and yell. "Holy Loki! Oh. Jordan. You suck, you know that?" He laughs and nods, "Yeah, but you love me!" I suppose. JJ is one of the only other real friends you have other than Ned, Peter, and MJ. Jordan's also gay, but no one knows. Which is weird because he's always talking about hot guys. I mean, MJ clearly knows and he knows she knows, but we haven't brought it up yet. But, I mean, MJ knows everything! I'M VeRy oBsERvaNt, my ass! She must be some all-knowing god, really. She's, like a mini Nick Fury!
Jordan put an arm around you waist, looking over your head at the quarterback he currently likes.
Ned: Oh. (chuckles) I'll knock out the basic bones of the Death Star at my place. And, and then I'll come by afterwards...
His voice fades out as Peter slows to a stop. In slow motion, Peter looks at Jordan's arm around you. His eyes widen and his fist clenches. He glares at Jordan and is clearly angry. Very angry. He can barely keep up with his conversation with Ned.
Ned: ...because for the most part, the difficult thing is the base of it. The top half we can knock out in two hours, tops.
Peter: That'd be great.
[The school bell rings.]
Time skip to physics class due to Ward always surviving and thriving in A of S
Ms. Warren: Okay, so how do we calculate linear acceleration between points A and B?
[She points at Flash, who is confidently holding up his hand.] BAHAHAHA CONFIDENT?! With his two brain cells, how would be be excited to answer a question?!
Ms. Warren: Flash.
Flash: It's the product of sine of the angle and gravity divided by the mass. Definitely wrong, but I'll let Petey answer that one
Ms. Warren: Nope.
[Another hand goes up, but Ms. Warren calls out Peter
Ms. Warren: Peter. You still with us?
[Peter has been watching a video of Spider-Man on YouTube.] lmao, a boy is caught
Peter: Uh... Uh... Yeah, yeah.
[He closes the laptop, revealing a diagram of a simple gravity pendulum.]
Peter: Uh... Mass cancels out, so it's just gravity times sine.
Ms. Warren: Right. See, Flash, being the fastest isn't always the best if you are wrong.
[The class bursts out in laughter. Flash has turned in his seat and is glaring at Peter.]
Flash: (whispers) You're dead. So're you if you touch Peter!
[Peter turns to glance at a clock. 11:38 a.m.]
Time Skip Brought to You by Draco the Ferret
At lunch, you sat with MJ, Peter Ned, and Jordan. Jordan was french braiding your hair and MJ was reading Macbeth to you, aloud. Peter tried to grab your hand, but you gave him an small smile and shook your head. There was a sandwich in your hand and NOTHING can come between me and food!
Peter: Did Liz get a new top?
He stretched out her name, making sure you were listening. Liz? He knows I hate that gold digger! He BETTER not end up going to Homecoming with her, I don't even care if I change the god-dang movie!
Ned: No. We've seen that before, but never with that skirt.
Ned gave you a look and then nodded towards Jordan. Oh. He's jealous. I mean, there's nothing to worry about, but I guess Peter doesn't know that.
Michelle: You guys are losers.
Jordan: Preach, sister!
Ned: But then why do you sit with us?
Michelle: Because I don't have any friends. And because Payton and JJ sit here. No. Other. Reason.
--
The Decathlon practice is commencing. Liz is standing at a podium, reading the quiz cards. Ned, Charles, Abe, and Cindy are seated on the stage. Bells are placed in front of them.]
Liz: Let's move to the next question. What is the heaviest naturally-occurring element?
Charles: Hydrogen's the lightest. That's not the question. Okay. Yeah.
Abe: Uranium.
[Cindy Moon, who was frantically searching the books, glares at Abe.]
Liz: That is correct. Thank you, Abraham.
Abe: (quietly pumping his fist in the air) Yes. Yes. I love Abe, he's literally a whole mood.
Liz: Please open your books to page ten.
[A few feet away, Peter is conversing with Mr. Harrington, the teacher who is in charge of the Decathlon team.] MAMMA SSSSTEEVE!!!!!!!!
Mr. Harrington: Peter, it's nationals. Is there no way you could take one weekend off?
Peter: I can't go to Washington because if Mr. Stark needs me, then I have to make sure that I'm here.
Payton: I don't see why you can't. Father Stark wouldn't mind.
Flash: You've never even been in the same room as Tony Stark.
[Flash speaks up from behind them, reading a book with his feet propped up in a chair.]
Payton: If you say so, Eugene. Since your Tangled ass knows.
Cindy: Wait, what's happening?
[Sally Avril, who is lying on her stomach and studying her notes, answers her.]
Sally: Peter's not going to Washington.
Cindy: No. No, no, no, no, no. No. No.
[Abe rings the bell beside her.]
Abe: Why not?
Liz: Really? Right before nationals?
Michelle: He already quit marching band and robotics lab.
[Everyone looks at Michelle, who is leaning on the wall with a book, with a suspicious look on their faces. Michelle quickly adds:]
Michelle: I'm not obsessed with him. Just very observant. I told you. N i c k. F u r y. O r. J e s u s. C o n s p i r a c y t h e o r y, I t h i n k n o t.
Liz: Flash, you're in for Peter. Guess we're gonna lose then..
Flash: Ooh, I don't know. I gotta check my calendar first. I got a hot date with Black Widow coming up. You wish! I already set up a date for then with Bruce!
[Abe rings the bell.]
Abe: That is false. LMAOO I'M WEEAKKK, HE RANG THE B E L L. Abe is an inspiration.
Mr. Harrington: What did I tell you about using the bell for comedic purposes?
Payton: This has happened before? I love this club!
[Peter turns to see the clock: it's still 1:18 p.m.]
When school ends, the bell barely stops ringing before Peter grabs you hand and runs out the door. He excitedly kisses you and runs to the front steps of the building. Boy made my knees weak and then ran away. Cold. Just cold. Looking around to check if anyone's watching him, he leaps over a fence taller than himself without touching it. You simply walk up to it and teleport to the other side. Peter runs toward the deli and nods at a man sitting at the corner.
Peter: Hey, what's up?
Man: Hey, man.
You and Peter enter Delmar's Deli-Grocery and head to the counter.
Peter: What's up, Mr. Delmar?
Mr. Delmar: Hey, Mr. Parker. Ms. Stark. Number fives, right?
[Peter picks up jelly in a plastic bag and puts it on the counter. It says "Best By 03.16.18."]
Peter: Yeah, um, and, uh, with pickles, and can you smush it down real flat? And no pickles for Payton? Thanks.
Deli Clerk: You got it, boss.
Mr. Delmar: How's your aunt?
Peter: Yeah, she's alright.
Mr. Delmar turns around, speaking to the staff.
Mr. Delmar: La tía de é les una italiana muy bellissima. (His aunt is a very hot Italian woman.)
Deli Clerk: ¿Ah, sí? (Oh, yeah?)
Peter: ¿Cómo está tu hija, eh? (How is your daughter, huh?)
Payton: Peter!
[The deli staff hoots behind the counter. Delmar's grin fades.]
Mr. Delmar: Twenty dollars.
Peter: It's ten dollars.
Mr. Delmar: For that comment, twenty dollars.
Peter: Hey, come on, I'm joking. I'm joking.
Peter grabs your hand and pulls you closer to him. Mr, Delmar, notices and smiles.
Mr. Delmar: Amor joven! ¿Eres una pareja? (Young love! Are you a couple?)
Peter hasn't done the relationship unit in Spanish yet, so he doesn't understand. You blush and Peter responds, "Yo no comprendo" (I don't comprehend/understand). You just answered the question for him.
Payton: ¡Espero!
Mr. Delmar give you a knowing smile and wink. Peter pulls out some cash from his wallet and hands it over to Delmar. Delmar takes the money with a grumpy look on his face.
Peter: Here's ten dollars. For both of us.
[Peter moves toward a fat cat lying on the counter and pets him.]
Peter: What's up, Murph? How you doing, buddy?
Mr. Delmar: So, how's school?
Peter: Ah, you know, it's boring. Got better things to do.
Payton: Understatement, it sucks a butt. Every time I leave that place, I feel like I just got Avada Kedavra'd.
Mr. Delmar: (he laughs and responds)Stay in school, kids. Stay in school. Otherwise, you're gonna end up like me. But you're lit...?
Peter: This is great.
Mr. Delmar: Best sandwiches in Queens.
He hands Peter our sandwiches and we leave. "Thank you!" we both say leaving. He runs across the street with a bag of sandwich in his hand and you follow. He passes under an elevated train track, holding up his palm at a cab that honks at him, and runs into an alley. He takes off his shoes and throws them aside. You go in your bag and get the suit Tony made for you(whatever you want to imagine, comment your ideas!)
From his backpack, Peter pulls out a blue and red Spider-Man suit. He knocks over a garbage can as he awkwardly takes off his pants. Peter yanks off his shirt and sweater, then steps into his suit, wearing only his boxers. You turn around and change as well. "Ya decent?" Peter responded with a yes and Peter webbed you backpacks against a dumpster, then hit the spider emblem on his chest.
Peter presses a button on his web-shooter, activating hologram displays, adjusts the lenses on his high tech mask, and jumps onto the roof of a building. "Blizkrieg Bop" by Ramones starts to play as he leaps across roofs with his sandwich bag in hand. Your own AI plays Sunflower, from one of your favorite movies. Crouching down on a ledge, Peter looks down at the streets and sighs.
Peter: Ah, finally
(A/N: LMAOO I was singing along just fine until that left in the dust part. It kept coming up and I was unprepared!)
