Re: pete's house: gwen & peter
You pretend! [It was an echo, but a really sure one. Arguing made it easier to think - well, to think about things that didn't involve him touching her, which was totally a challenge. Maybe she looked at his mouth a few times, but arguing was a good deterrent, and he was being super stubborn, just like she'd expected.]
I don't think the duration of my absence affects anything, Peter. [She almost got louder, but she kept her voice down at the last minute, remembering Aunt May's presence somewhere. She moved closer, too, just so she could be fervent without being loud.] I think me being gone at all might make you remember what it was like the first time or something, and I wasn't super sure you weren't just into me because of that, even before this. [She wasn't going to mention Mary Jane. She wasn't going to mention Mary Jane.]
Okay, so it's a good thing I'm here, but that doesn't mean your interest in me is what you think it is. [He huffed, and she echoed the huff.] Flash wants us all to get together and go to the arcade. If you're still interested after, we can go out on a real date, um, if you want to.
