Chapter 43: You and me against the world
Peter's POV
I've been playing Dr. Marsh's words on repeat in my mind ever since our session which was three days ago. And now I have to go to school. Am I excited for it? No. Do I have to man up and go? Sadly, yes.
I guess I should head down to breakfast, because if I don't eat I will die, considering my metabolism is different than others and... am I rambling to myself? That shouldn't even be a question!
I grabbed some cereal getting ready to sit down next to Wanda and I tripped over myself dropping my bowl and spilling all of the contents of my cereal on myself.
I sighed and went back upstairs changing my shirt and pants going back downstairs wiping the floor of all cereal and milk then grabbing an apple.
Wanda's voice was laced with concern, "You okay?"
"Oh yeah I'm totally fine I didn't just spill my breakfast contents all over me and the floor." I remarked sarcastically.
"I'm sorry Peter."
"It's not your fault Wanda I guess I'm just stuck in my head right now."
"You better hurry because you've got to go to school." She said.
I grabbed my backpack and ate the rest of my apple on my way to school. Once I got there I saw Ned at my locker.
"Hey Ned." I greeted.
"Hi Peter." He replied.
"Ready for the Spanish quiz?" He asked.
I nodded and finished grabbing stuff out of my locker and walking to class. There, MJ walked beside us slipping her hand into mine. "Hey Peter." She said.
"Hey MJ how are you?" I asked.
"I'm good and you?"
"I'm okay just got a lot on my mind." I replied.
She nodded understanding and I guess not deciding to ask anymore questions. While in class, I couldn't think straight. Every time I try to stay on task my mind goes somewhere else. What would Mr. Stark say about all of this? Would he shame me? Would he be angry? I honestly don't know anything anymore.
"Mr. Maximoff! Pay attention!" said Mr. Bull.
"I'm s-sorry sir." I apologized. After class it got worse I was getting more accident prone, staring off into space, stuttering over my words I just wanna go home at this point.
I walked to an empty classroom and paced back and forth trying to remind myself of Dr. Marsh's words but it wasn't working. Why isn't it working?!

MJ's POV
I saw Peter in a hurry rushing to a nearby classroom so I followed him. I opened the door to reveal my boyfriend pacing back and forth. Once I began to cautiously walk towards him he stopped pacing looking at me.
"MJ, what are you doing here?" He asked.
"I saw you come in here in a rush. What's going on?"
"I'm just not in the best head space right now, and I honestly just need and want to go home."
"I know what it's like being stuck in your own head having no clue what's going on."
"You have?"
"Yeah it's happened a few times where I constantly forget something, and have to replay it over and over again in my head looking for a different outcome but end up with the same results."
"I'm tired and need to fall asleep." He said.
"How about we call Happy after we go to the office telling them we're not feeling well." I suggested.
"Sounds like a good idea."
"It's you and me against the world love."
He chuckled, "Us against the world I like that." (I'm sorry this chapter is boring I think writers block is effecting me.)
