[ Peter's well aware when someone steps into the room-he's also aware that person isn't Gwendolyn Stacy because he'd know. He doesn't really need the 'samesies' sense to know when it's her anymore, he's used to her breathing and heartbeat and the heart beat and breathing pattern he's hearing now is definitely Buttercup. Yet another person he was allowing himself to get close to and care about. ]
[ This sucks. He should know better than to get close to people at this time considering how it usually turns out but at the same time, he can't help it. He might be a little awkward at times but he does like people-and talking to them. He can't really stand the thought of pushing everyone away but he can't stand the thought of losing everyone either. ]
[ ... ]
[ Where is Aunt May when he needs her? Is he ever gonna see her again? ]
Hey, Buttercup.
[ He greets dully without looking up at her, hands still over his face as he doesn't want her to see how red his eyes are or how wet his face is right now. He takes in another breath and lets it out slowly before he focuses on what she's saying. She wants to show him something. ]
[ He really doesn't want to get up but he also doesn't want Buttercup or anyone else to worry about him. He'll be okay, probably. He'll bounce back like he always does. It sucks, god does it really suck, but he has to keep going. ]
Yeah, okay. [ Peter agrees before pushing himself up to a sitting position and rubbing the wet traces off his eyes before moving over to the screen to see what she wants him to look at. ]
