Gwen was really nervous about Peter visiting. What should she do? What should she wear? Gwen felt like she could have a breakdown over stress. She decided that they could just have a friendly dinner. Yeah, maybe that could be enough for two friends, apparently, one has a crush on the other.
Gwen grabbed some plates and layed them out on the table. She payed out the utensils next to all of them too. She was thinking of what she would cook. Gwen thought of cooking some fish. She opened her freezer and let down her fish to defrost it.
"Thank God it's only four, our date started at 7:30", Gwen thought. "Wait, did I say date? I meant a lovely dinner", she corrected. It was about six now and she had started cooking the fish.
She could already see the dark in the sky. Her blonde hair had been curled with her bangs covering her forehead. She had chosen to wear a low cut sweater with some jeans and heels. Once it was seven, she had finished cooking. She sliced the salmon equally and placed them on her and Peter's plates.
She had thirty minutes to get ready, but when she looked at herself in the mirror, the doorbell rang. Gwen ran to the door, took a deep breath, and opened it. "Hi Peter!", she smiled with a grin.
"Hi Gwen! Wow, you look great!". Gwen smiled, "Come inside". Peter and Gwen made their way to the sidd patio where their food was. Gwen took a bite of her fish, it was simply amazing.
"So Peter, how is that Science project coming?", Gwen asked. Peter looked up, "Umm, it's really not going to well", he said looking dissappointed. Gwen sat quietly still eating her food, then a thougt came to her mind.
She put down her fork, "Maybe I can help you, what's it about?". "I'm studying the stars", he said.
Gwen walked to the corner of the patio where a telescope is. "I have a telescope over here, I always love to look at the stars".
Peter stood up and walked over to her. He touched it with his hand and stared at it. Gwen looked at the telescope and then Peter, "Well, go on". Peter examined the telescope. "Can you see the Big Dipper?", Gwen asked. "Uhh," Peter said, "I don't really see it".
"Here I'll show you", Gwen said. But as Gwen tried to walk, she slipped on her heels and fell forward. Peter quickly turned around and caught her. "You should be more careful", he said.
They stared at each other for a moment, Gwen looked into Peter's gorgeous eyes. Just as they leaned in to kiss, Gwen's friend interupted.
"What is going on here?", a voice asked. Peter and Gwen turned to see MJ leaning in the door. "Oh I was just helping Peter with a science project. She pulled Peter, "I'll meet you at the OsCorp lab tomorrow, OK?". Peter nodded as he left.
Gwen looked at her best friend, "I need to talk to you". "Why MJ? Why? The very first chance I get to ask Peter out and you have completely ruined it!", she yelled.
The redhead cocked her head, "I'm sorry, I just wanted to borrow your textbook". Gwen frowned and gave her her science textbook. "Thank you Gwen!", she said as she left the house. Gwen was hoping for better plans tomorrow.
