Peter couldn't stop smiling all day as he was excited about going to the party at Lindsey's house tonight. He was finally going to talk to her and spend some time with her. He secretly hoped Gwen would be there and so he could rub it in her face that he was still hanging around Gwen. Serves her right he thought.

Peter ran into Lindsey at lunch time and was surprised to see that Flash wasn't with her. "Where's Flash?" asked Peter looking around.

Lindsey smiled as she said, "He said he was going to practice some basketball."

Peter nodded as he and Lindsey went to sit outside for lunch. She pulled an apple out of her back pack and rolled it from one hand to the other. "I haven't seen Gwen around lately, where is she?"

"Oh, she and I broke up."

There was an awkward silence. "Really? Why is that?"

"Well, she's jealous of another girl that I really like," admitted Peter, "This other girl is so pretty and so nice. She treats others with respect. And her smile…is like wow."

"Wow Peter, she sounds wonderful," giggled Lindsey as she nudged him.

"Oh she is," smiled Peter.

Lindsey lifted her apple to her mouth and took a bite and stared at it. "So about this party tonight?" Peter began.

"Oh yeah! The details! It starts at 7:30 and it's a barbeque. Bring whatever you want."

"Who else is coming?"

"I am not really sure. I invited a few people as did Flash."

Peter looked at Lindsey and desperately wanted to say what was in his heart. She looked back at him. "Peter, I-"

They both leaned forward as if they were going to kiss each other, but Peter held back. Lindsey was with Flash. He gently rubbed the back of her neck. Lindsey looked slightly disappointed but she reminded herself that she was with Flash. She suddenly felt something drop on her leg and she looked down. It was the bracelet Flash had given her and the heart had broken off and cracked. "Oh," was the only thing she could say.

"I'm sure you can fix it with some glue," Peter shrugged.

"Some things you can't fix with glue."

"I have some glue in my locker, I will go get it."

Lindsey half smiled as Peter got up to leave.

Peter walked all the way over to the other side of the campus to his locker. He was determined to help her fix the bracelet she wore on her wrist. When he finally came up to his locker, he noticed something going on down the hallway. He saw Flash, but Flash wasn't practicing basketball. He had another girl in his arms and he was kissing her. Peter was in shock. He immediately left his locker forgetting the glue to confront Flash. "What the hell are you doing?" Peter snapped at Flash.

Flash gasped and pushed the girl off of him and to Peter's shock it was Gwen. "Peter this doesn't concern you," Flash sneered.

"Of course it does," Peter's voice rose, "You lied and you are cheating on Lindsey and she is my best friend. How dare you!"

"She deserves it," Gwen laughed, "Flash is all man and he just can't have one girl."

"I can't believe you two," Peter exclaimed, "Why would you do this?"

"The only reason I am with Lindsey is because her dad is rich. She can do stuff for me that other people can't. She can give me a good life. You best believe it Peter and it would be best if you didn't tell Lindsey about this. Or I will kick your ass? GOT IT?" yelled Flash.

"How about no? She is a wonderful person and she doesn't deserve to be treated like that," Peter replied.

Flash lunged at Peter and a huge fight broke out in the hallway. People gathered around and cheered at them. Peter had forgotten that Lindsey was waiting for him and didn't see that she came walking up to the fight. "What the hell is this?" Lindsey snapped as she parted through the crowd.

Everyone froze and gasped as Peter and Flash were on the ground wrestling. "Stop it!" yelled Lindsey.

Flash and Peter pulled away from each other, revealing that Peter had a bruise above his eye and Flash had a bump on his forehead. "I can't leave you two alone, you will get in a fight. What happened?" Lindsey demanded.

"We were just play wrestling," lied Flash, "Right Peter?"

Peter didn't say a word and just stared at Flash in disbelief. "I can't believe you two, seriously," Lindsey shook her head, "If you guys were play wrestling, then why is Peter bruised and why do you Flash have a bump on your head?"

"Oh come on baby," Flash got up and tried to hold her close.

Lindsey wasn't quite sure how to handle all of this. She wanted to believe Flash, but then out of the corner of her eye she saw Gwen. "What's she doing here?" asked Lindsey staring at her.

"I came up to break it up," Gwen lied.

Lindsey looked closer at Gwen's face and then Flash's and noticed that there was makeup on his face and Gwen's make up was smeared. Lindsey touched Flash's mouth and then touched her mouth to compare the colors of the makeup. "That's not my shade," Lindsey glared at her hand.

Peter was smiling triumphantly knowing that Flash was about to get in trouble. She looked over at Gwen and then Flash. "I want the truth."

"Well you see, it's nothing-" Flash began.

"Why don't you tell her the truth Flash?" demanded Peter.

Flash was growing uncomfortable as he was pressured into telling the truth. "Fine, you want the truth, here it is. I had a moment of weakness and I kissed Gwen."

Lindsey almost toppled over and she felt her heart breaking as she tried to grab something for support. Luckily nearby there was a bench. "I thought you loved me," whispered Lindsey as she was on the verge of tears.

"Oh I do," Flash replied trying to get closer to her, "It was a mistake. We all make mistakes."

Lindsey felt the tears pooling in her eyes. "This is not a mistake, this is a major screw up," cried Lindsey as the tears fell.

Gwen slowly backed away and Flash was holding Lindsey's hand now. "What can I do to make it up to you?" he asked sweetly.

"We are through," snapped Lindsey as she wiped away a few tears and stormed off. Flash didn't say a word as Lindsey disappeared. He muttered something underneath his breath about a dumb bitch. He turned his attention over to Peter and said, "You happy now?"

"Very," Peter smirked as he ran off.

He found Lindsey crying and he kneeled beside her. "It's going to be okay, please Lindsey don't cry anymore."

Lindsey's green eyes were so full of sadness and the spark she once had in them was now gone. They almost became dull and he could feel her pain. "Peter, I-"

"Is the bbq still on for tonight?" asked a kid rolling by on his skateboard.

"Party is off tonight," Peter answered for Lindsey, "Spread the word."

Peter wiped away Lindsey's tears and said, "Lindsey, please don't cry over him. He isn't worth your tears. Believe me."

Over the next few days, Peter spent his time trying to comfort Lindsey. He hugged her, wiped away her tears and listened to her. Lindsey nestled her head into Peter's chest and she rested her head on his heart. She noticed as she got closer to him, his heart beat increased. "Peter," she whispered, "Your heart is racing."

"I know," he answered.

"Are you alright?" Lindsey panicked.

"I am."

Lindsey placed her hand on his heart and he took his hand and placed it over hers. In that moment, both Lindsey and Peter felt a spark. The firework and the passion all from that one touch. Lindsey looked up at Peter confused as did Peter looking at Lindsey. "Lindsey I need some advice on something."

"Okay, ask away," Lindsey smiled as Peter's hand was still on hers.

"There is a girl that I really like, and I am not sure really how to tell her how I feel," Peter began.

Lindsey felt her heart sinking deeper into her chest. "I think I have the same problem. There is a guy I really like but I can't tell him."

"Is it anyone that I know?" Peter asked hopefully.

"No," lied Lindsey hoping he wouldn't push it any further.

"I know you and Flash just broke up, but I would do anything to make you happy," Peter whispered, "You mean so much to me."

"I just don't know if it's too soon to be with someone new."

Peter suddenly had a jolt of inspiration and couldn't hold it in anymore. "Lindsey, I know things didn't work out with Flash, but I was wondering, would you ever give someone like me a chance?"

Lindsey was speechless. Was this really happening? "Lindsey?" he asked.

"Of course I would."

Peter's heart leapt with joy. "Really? I thought you would be mad at me, I thought you were gonna slap me or something," he admitted.

"No Peter," she smiled, "I've come to realize how I feel about you. I need you more than ever."

Lindsey's heart was racing as Peter lovingly stroked her cheek and their lips met for the first time. It was everything either one of them had imagined, plus something more.
