《what a strange name》ch.19
Advertisement
I wake up and check my phone. Peter texted me?
P: hey. Aunt neat told me what happened. She talked to some people and there should be a car there to get you around 10:00.
A: where am I going???????
P: the foster home I stayed in. Don't worry. You'll fit right in.
A: wasn't it an all boys home?
P: yeah but Nathan agreed to take you in as an emergency placement.
A: christ.
I look at the time. It's 8:00. I get out of bed and get dressed. I sneak out of my room and grab the suitcase from the hallway closet.
I grab all of the clothes that I can fit in there. I sneak into the bathroom and get my tooth brush. I go into my dads closet and get the box from the top shelf.
I open it and put as much as I can fit into the suit case. It was supposed yo be my college fund bit I guess now its just my 'living fund'
Oh well.
I check the time again and its almost ten. I grab my shoes and a hoodie and wait on the porch.
When the car gets here I put my suiy case in the trunk and get in. I sit in an awkward silence until the car stops. I get out and get my suit case out of the trunk.
"you must be aria." I hear some say. I turn around and see who I assume to be Nathan. He can't be any older than 23. I nod.
"I'm Nathan. I run the house." We walk in and there are at least 15 kids. Christ.
"thanks for taking me in nath-" before I can finish something hits my knee, almost knocking me over. I look down to see a little boy hugging my knee. Can't be any older than 6

"hi there, what your name little guy?" I ask "Jonathan. I like your shoes. They remind me of spider man!"
"lets let aria get settled first." Nathan says. I lean down "I'm friends with spiderman" I say to the kid.
His face lights up and he runs off. I bring my suitcase upstairs and unpack. I'm glad to be out of that god foresaken house but I'm worried about my dad.
I take off my hoodie and reach for a long sleeve shirt to change into. I hear a knock at the door and quickly put my hoodie back on. I open the door.
"hey, you left your phone downstairs." Nathan says. He holds out my phone. "oh thanks." I say, taking my phone.
The first thing I do is check for any new smudges on my screen in case he looked through my phone. Nothing. Weird, most of the time my dad does.
I change into a long sleeve shirt and jeans. I pause and look at my arms and legs. I need to stop, but no one can know.
I finish getting dressed and notice something in the corner. I go to investigate and see a black spiderman like suit. I read the note attached to it.
I made you a suit, since you, Peter, and wade go on patrol together. I'm not sure if its going to fit you but I hope you like it. Be safe out there!
-mj
I smile and tuck the note in my pocket. I pick up the suit and hold it up to myself. I put on the mask and it fits perfectly. I think venom likes it too.
Pov.Peter
I'm out on patrol. Me and wade are waiting for aria on top of a roof. We've all been going on patrol together recently.

Venom climbs up and melts away, revealing a black spiderman like suit. Even though she has a mask on, Its easy to tell she's smiling.
"first of all, cool suit. Second of all, why are you so smiley today?" Wade asks. "mj made me a new suit! Isn't it amazing!" Aria says, happily.
"it looks cool. Let's roll guys." I say, swinging off the roof. Wade follows with the web shooters I made for him, and aria can jump enough to keep up good.
We stopped some small crime. Stopped the sandwich shop from being robbed, and helped old people cross the street. One old lady bought us all churros.
After all of that, we all went out separate ways, when I got home, I took off my suit and went to get a snack.
I talk with wade for a while then go to use the bathroom. Suddenly someone starts banging on my stall door.
"I'm in here!" I shout. "you think I don't know that parker?" Flash yells. "y'know, your little boy toy out there told me he thinks your ugly, everybody does."
"he would never say that" I say, more to myself than to flash. "but he did! Really! I'm just looking out for you. Everyone thinks you look ugly and gross. Even your boyfriend. Gay." He says, walking away.
Does he really think that? "no, wade loves me. He would have told me to my face." I say, to no one. The words flash said are replaying over and over in my head.
Maybe I need to lose weight. I leave the bathroom and go back to the table. I've lost my appetite. I sit silently, poking at my food.
"babe? You ok?" Wade says. I can't talk to him yet, not right after he said those things. "Peter? Please, hun, tell me what's going on. You know you cab trust me."
I look him in the eyes and I'm about to tell him that I'm fine but I can't. "actually I'm not sure about that anymore." I say.
He looks sad and confused. Why did I say that!? "what? What did I do?" He asks, sounding a bit frantic.
"flash told me what you said. I know he's lying but he sounded so sincere. So I'm not so sure." I say "I'm sorry."
"what did he say?" Wade asks. "that you told him I was ugly and gross. That everyone thought I was." I say.
Wade grabs my hand and just holds it. "you know that's not true. I would never say that. Flash came over here and told me you thought I saw gross. He's trying to break us." He says.
I look up at him and smile. I can see the worry and sadness in his eyes. I feel like a jerk right now. How could I ever believe flash? I feel like a dick.
