[Voice] He is a man. That comes after 'spider' in his name.

[peterparker]

...I can do the robot?

[Voice] Only when he's a hero. In this relationship she's the man

[staywiththegroup]

[ That is the uncoolest thing he has ever said. ]

I suppose I'll have to teach you how to dance.

[Voice] This is why he prefers MJ.

[peterparker]

[Gwen, no. He's got something kind of romantic planned, or at least possibly not un-romantic. Why must you ruin it with teaching him how to dance?]

...No, no! It's cool.

I can also do the robot slowly.

[He's going to grin, bite his lip and hope that counts as slow dancing.

...Or that she gets the picture that he can't dance. Like, at all.]

[Voice] Her Dad probably preferred Flash. But not everyone gets what they want :l

[staywiththegroup]

[ No, Peter. Just no. ]

So, what did you have planned?

[Voice] Her Dad's opinion is invalid because he's de-- ...derp. A derp. Yeah.

[peterparker]

Oh-ho, so now we're not dancing?

[Did his hip dimestop moves ruin that idea for you?

Uh, then. Just as planned.]

You free next week at some point...?

[He's not answering that question. Would ruin the surprise.

Also he's not 100% sure yet, but he has some ideas. Good ideas? Unsure.]

[Voice] :|

[staywiththegroup]

I didn't say that. But at some point, I will teach you.

[ He has to learn for the wedding! ]

I think I'm free next week. [ pause ] You're not going to tell me what you have planned, are you?

[Voice]

[peterparker]

Okay, but don't complain if your feet never work the same again.

[Joked lightly. ...Sort of a joke, anyway. He can hope.

No more weddings, his fragile teenage ego riddled with commitment issues can't handle it.]

...Who said I had anything planned?

So, see you next week?

[Voice]

[staywiththegroup]

[ Weddings are great. He just doesn't realize it yet. ]

Oh so if you have nothing planned, can I invite Finnick? He wants to meet you.

[Voice]

[peterparker]

...Are you serious?

[Because if this is a girl-test, please tell him.]

[Voice]

[staywiththegroup]

Yeah. He said he'd like to meet you.

[ A test for a three-some. No, not really. ]

[Voice]

[peterparker]

Yeah. Sure.

Fine.

[Well, so much for planning.

Let the awkward ensue.]

[Voice]

[staywiththegroup]

[ Her unhappy senses are tingling. ]

Or you can meet him another time? He's really nice. I think you two would get along.

[Voice]

[peterparker]

No, next week's good. No problem.

See you both then.

Later.

[Voice]

[staywiththegroup]

[ Boys are confusing :| ]

Peter, wait.

[Voice]

[peterparker]

[Was just about to hang up, but. Oop.

Okay.]

Uh... Yeah.

What's up?

[Voice]

[staywiththegroup]

[ Biting her lip cause she isn't sure what to say. ]

You can meet him later. We haven't had much time together.

You still haven't spent the night, yet.

[Voice]

[peterparker]

[Peter's not the most romantic, it's true. His timing is bad, he's pretty poor at gift-giving, bad with communication and almost perpetually later. He's aware of all of this and it's pretty amazing that Gwen puts up with it, but.

When you wake up to an annoyed girlfriend after kind of a bizarre out-of-body experience and try to make it up to her, only to have the guy you're sorta bummed about be invited on your date--? Pete might not be a relationship genius, but that's a real mood killer.]

No, no, um, it's-- cool. Next week is just perfect.

[Since he doesn't want to meet Finnick at all, next week is just as good as any time. Like medicine; just get it over with.]

Just shoot me a text or something on where I should meet you two. When you know, I mean.

Uh... so, bye?

[Voice]

[staywiththegroup]

[ Non-communication is the downfall to teenage reletionships. ]

Okay, if you're sure...

I'll see you then. [ Are they at the 'I love you' phase yet? Probably not...might be too soon for, Peter. So she just hangs up. ]
