oh hey

It was odd being back in school, redoing his senior year from the beginning again. Everyone who had been blipped had only been back for a month before being thrust back into school. It was so strange how everything had changed in 4 years, but Peter had stayed the same. Same Peter, different world.

He walked through the doors with his best friend, Ned, thank god the other boy had also been blipped. Otherwise his friend would be in college right now or doing anything other than attending high school with Peter.

There were some familiar faces, about half to be exact, but the rest were complete strangers. Peter felt like a freshman again, being thrust into a new environment full of unknowns.

“Peter! Peter hey!” Peter whipped his head around in the direction of the yelling. He saw a tall boy he had never seen before pushing his way through the crowded hallway towards him and Ned. “I’m so happy to see you back.” The strange, although very attractive boy said.

“Uh hey… man. What’s up?” Peter replied, unsure who this was and how they knew his name.

“You don’t recognize me do you? It’s me! Tony. Tony Stark. We were on the decathlon team together before… we’ll you know.”

Peter’s eyes widened in recognition. “Tony?? Oh my god look at you! You’re so….”

“Not 14 anymore? Yeah that kinda happens when 4 years have passed. You on the other hand have not aged a day.” Tony gave Peter a little wink, which Peter remembers was not unusual for the other boy to do, even when he was 14. Tony had the biggest crush on Peter when they did decathlon together, he made that painfully obvious.

“So I guess your excuse of “Tony I’m way too old for you, you’re just a kid” won’t work anymore huh? Now that I’m technically older than you.” Tony smirked, and moved to sidle up close to Peter.

The other boy squirmed away and laughed awkwardly, his face flushed. “Well we’re gotta get to class. It was nice seeing you Tony!” Peter grabbed Ned’s arm and dragged him away in a hurry. “What the fuck what the fuck what the fu-“ Peter mumbled to himself while rushing off.

“So Tony is hot now. That’s cool.” Ned said while being yanked through the halls to first period.
