Peter groaned as Tony mentioned bedtime. He understood why it was important he got a good rest, but that didn’t mean he didn’t want to keep working. He would be able to finish the smaller turbine before then, but he’d need to test it and make sure it still worked as it was supposed to. But then Tony mentioned getting some sleep himself, and that was enough to convince Peter. He sighed. “Fine.” He’d just have to try and finish his work early enough that he could do some testing. He frowned as he suddenly remembered why they had gone to the lab in the first place. “What about the Mark IX? We still need to work on that.”<br/><br/>Peter looked up in surprise as Tony told him he wouldn’t be going to school. “What? No, mr Stark, I  need to go to school. I have decathlon practice, I promised MJ I’d be there. She’s already mad that I missed the last few practices.” He loved decathlon, but he’d miss practice because of his work as Spiderman. MJ had chewed him out earlier that week about needing to be there. He had promised he would show up. It wasn’t just about decathlon or MJ. He knew he was one of the only ones, but he loved school. Not even Flash could make him stop loving school. He could see Ned then and MJ, and his classes were fun and he loved decathlon. He wanted to see Ned and just go to school where he could pretend nothing had happened. “I also promised Ned I’d be there, I don’t want to worry him.” Peter knew Ned was already worried about him. He was a good friend, and he was always worrying about him. Peter didn’t blame him. Being Spiderman brought dangers with it. Then there was the normal teenager stuff like the bullying from Flash. Peter appreciated Ned worrying about him, but he didn’t want to worry him any more than he already was.
