A/N: I'm really bored/sick so I'm just writing/uploading most of the chapters tonight. Also the POV's are gonna change really quickly and not flow right…sorry in advance.
Summary: Peter didn't like Riley like that. And then he did.
Mia finally did it. It was nerve-wracking but she finally told Peter she loved him. And he said it back! Which was so, so cool…but didn't make her feel any better. Because you see, Peter just didn't seem that into her. Sure he'd show her off, have sex with her, but then whenever he'd see Darcy's little sister he'd freeze up. Because Darcy just had to be there in spirit anyways.
So yeah, he's not over Darcy, obviously, but there was something else she found a little…weird. A theory hidden in the back of her mind…Riley. "WHY are they still friends?" she thought to herself. Okay, so technically she told him to stay friends with Riley, but not like this. They hung out at least once a week, ALONE sometimes, and its just like, shouldn't it be at least a LITTLE awkward? But noooo, Peter was just like "He's over it, I'm over it, whatever." And that is a total lie, because Riley still looks at Peter with so much adoration in his eyes, so much…lust. It sickened her.
And another thing! Riley was just a bad person, she was sure of it. Even after he randomly attacked Sav, Peter stuck by him, not even bothering to explain why to Mia. "It's COMPLICATED" he had said. She desperately wanted him to explain it to her, but he refused.
What scared her the most was seeing them laughing about some inside joke in the hallways, Peter keeling over, putting a hand on Riley's shoulder for support, and…
Mia thought that maybe, just maybe, Peter would look at Riley the way Riley looks at him.
