"Alright. Everyone can be dismissed and head to their next class. Sixth period everyone!" The principal said and everyone started to flood out of the doors like a herd of penguins trying to get to their destination. You got up from the bleachers with Ned, Mj and Peter. Brandi was waiting near the doors for you since you both had he same class. Not to mention Peter and Mj too but they were already with you. Heading down the steps of the bleachers, you feel someone shove you from behind and you nearly cause a domino effect by falling onto Peter who was in front of you. "I'm so sorry." Was what you told him before standing and turning around to face the person. Gwen. Of course.
Peter was able to catch you before you actually fell all the way down. So luckily no domino effect because of that. All he did was nod and give a small smile after you said sorry. Mj saw everything and placed herself behind you as you all continued to walk down. Eventually your foot hit the gym floor and you told Mj thank you. She mouthed back "you're welcome." The doors weren't too far away, yet everyone took their slow time getting through because of how huge the herd was. Mj was on your left, Peter on your right and Ned next to Peter but it wasn't till you felt a small tap on your shoulder that you turned around to see who it was. It was Harry. Harry Osborn. Yet why does it feel like everyone wants to speak with me lately??? Oh wait.. yeah.. I'm betting it's cause I'm so called "pretty". Oh man.. might as well suck it up and talk.
"Hello." You said as you stopped at your spot and faced him. "Hey I'm Harry." He said and lent out a hand for your to shake. Mj, Peter and Ned had also stopped a second after you did. Although Brandi was still waiting near the doors so she didn't know what was happening right now. "I'm (Y/n) and this is Michelle, Peter and Ned." You spoke as you motioned your hand towards your friends and shook Harry's hand. "It's a pleasure to meet you.. and your friends." He said and you took your hand back then nodded. Everyone else introduced themselves and when you looked at Peter, you could see what almost looked like a disturbed yet angry look. Why did he have that look? Did something happen before between them?
You tapped on Mj's arm with your own and she noticed the look Peter had on his face. "Well uh... we should be going.. or we're going to be late for our next class, but it was nice meeting you." You interrupted and Mj added in "Yeah. Don't want the teacher getting angry for not working on our projects." Ned heard and lightly tapped Peter's arm. "Come on man. We're going to be late." He said and that's when Peter nodded and turned, walking away with everyone including you. Harry stood there waiting for his father to be done conversing with the Principal. No one had noticed, but Mr. Osborn was glancing over during the whole meet up and noticed how Harry spotted you before anyone else. "Hmm..." was what he hummed before he faced back to the Principal.
Getting towards then finally through them, you felt hands touch your shoulders from behind which surprised you. Looking behind you, you saw Brandi. "Hey, sorry I couldn't sit with you guys during the assembly. Mrs. Grey insisted I stayed a couple of minutes to finish an assignment." She stated and you nodded your head. Mj did also and said "it's alright. We had the losers." Of course she joked towards the end when she pointed at Peter and Ned, who both looked at her with the scrunched up 'really?' face which made you laugh. "Calm down guys." You said and they rolled their eyes but smiled.
"So the new kid huh." Brandi added as she was now standing next to Mj. You were centered among the group as if you were popular but weren't. From left to right it went, Brandi, Mj, you, Peter and Ned. "Yeah.. weird how he only came up to me though." You mentioned. "May he's got a bit of an interest in you when he spotted you." Brandi said and you made a What? Are you serious? face which made her raise her hands in surrender. "Hey I'm just saying here." She added and Peter rolled his eyes next to you because he heard. "Let's just get to English. We need to finish our projects. They're due tomorrow apparently." You told her as Ned said and waved bye before splitting. The four of you waved bye back.

I couldn't get out of my head of why Harry would come up to me out of everyone else that was there. It was pretty much the whole school after all so why would he take interest in me? I find it strange but maybe I shouldn't overthink it too much. He 'is' the New Kid after all and they said he was starting tomorrow. Maybe we'll get a class together yet again I'm hoping we don't. I heard from someone that he's a huge flirt and I'm not trying to deal with flirts now. "Earth to (Y/n) come in. We need help down at the station." Brandi said as she waved her hand in front of your face making you snap out of your thoughts. "Sorry.." You said and glanced around the room to only see Mj and Peter looking at you.
Peter looked back over to his paper and Mj mouthed "are you alright?" Before she continued, you mouth back "Yeah.. I'll talk to you after." - "Okay. Which part were we on?" You asked as you look back over at Brandi. The both of you were almost done. Just needed a little bit of more writing and a picture plastered on the center of the presentation cardboard cutout. "The last part actually. We're almost done. Want me to write and you can look for the picture?" She insisted. "Uh sure, yeah." Then you pulled out your phone looking for the picture that would've been prefect for the spot. As you scrolled, you couldn't help yourself but think that there was a tension between Peter and Harry. Something that didn't... click.
Something was up and you wanted to find out what. Maybe after school you can ask Peter if he wanted to grab something to drink at the coffee shop. That's if he's not in a hurry to leave and go somewhere. Plus I did need to talk to Mj but I'll probably just tell her through messaging. I'll text her, no I'll tell her after class that I'll text her later to tell her what I thought or my opinion on how the new kid Harry acted today towards me. I still don't get it. Interest my ass. No one has taken interest in me before I had friends so why now? What is really going on for that to happen? I really need to talk to Peter and ask him.
Just then, the bell rang and everyone got up. "So I'll email you the picture so you can print it and plaster it on the board?" You questioned Brandi and she said "Yeah. I'll give you my email during the next class since we need to rush over there anyway." Nodding your head in response, you turned to Mj and Peter. "Mj I'll text you later since you need to catch the bus after school and Peter I need to ask you something after the next class." You mentioned. "Yeah, see you later (Y/n/n)." Mj said and left then Peter said "Sure. Anything wrong? Did I do anything?" He asked. "No of course not. Just after the next class. Now I have to go before Mr. Sanders gets angry with me being late."
