Hey, author here!! First of all I just want to say I am SO sorry for the LONG wait!! I burned myself out with writing and planning so I took a break, and then Life hit me in the face with a frying pan lol. I've also been dealing with some personal issues, I've been considering telling my parents I have depression and anxiety. Its a lot to unload so I'll just leave it at that for now :)
Second of all - THANK YOU!!! You guys have been incredibly sweet and nice in the comments, it makes me so happy!!! And y'all are fUNNY. Y'all have me cackling! I'm gonna do my best to respond to comments again, I probably won't be replying to old comments just because its awkward, but feel free to say hi or to idk, delete it and rewrite it if you really want me to respond XD
Third and last of all!! This chapter deals with a panic attack, which are hard to write correctly. Everyone has their own reactions and causes, so I decided to mix the panic attack with the most common symptoms and with my own symptoms (I heavily project onto Peter ;-;) I'd love to debate the accuracy of the attack as long as you are polite!!
Thank you guys!! Enjoy!~~~~~~
((Monday, May 4))
Something was bothering Peter, but he didn't know what it was. He was constantly jumping at different sounds, and his spidey sense was constantly going off, except it was different then usual; normally, it would scream at him when something bad was about to happen, but recently, it was like a quiet, constant murmuring. It really wasn't helping his anxiety.
Thankfully, however, school had ended early for the year, due to the shooting that had taken place. He wouldn't be getting weird looks from classmates or lectures from teachers.
Ned and Peter were hanging out whenever Peter wasn't at work, and were doing so right now (besides, they always hang out on Star Wars Day).
"C'mon Peter, you gotta go see her again!" Ned was whining, hands clasped together. "She's being released from the hospital soon, and it'll just be even more awkward the next time you guys meet if you don't visit her!"
"I did visit Mj." Peter grumbled, tinkering with some spare metal parts to avoid Ned's eyes. "And she rejected me, by telling me she only thought I was cool because I'm Spider-Man."
"Has it ever crossed your mind that maybe she's just embarrassed? You know Mj, she's always trying to act cool." Ned sat down next to Peter on Ned's bed. "And besides, even if she did think you were cool just because you were Spider-Man, doesn't mean she won't realize you're cool as Peter, too!"
Peter stopped with his tinkering, and sighed, glancing over at Ned. "Fine. I'll visit her, but if it doesn't go well, I'm not going again."
Ned leapt off of the bed. "Yes!! Ok, we gotta go, I told Mj we'd both be there at 11, so we have a solid half hour."
"Are you serious- I- NED! What if I said no?!"
The boy only snickered in response as he ran away, causing Peter to laugh with him.
~~~~~~
"Look who finally showed up." Mj tried to glare at Peter as she sat up, but ended up wincing in pain from her movement. "You have super healing powers, right?" Peter nodded, confirming her assumption. "It must be nice."
Peter forced out a little laugh, rubbing the back of his head. "Yeah, it sure does come in handy. Last time I was shot, I only had to stay in the hospital for a few hours, not a few days."
The mood instantly dropped, his two friends giving Peter horrified looks. "I. . .what's wrong? I thought we were messing around. . ."
"So. . .You were just. . .just kidding about being shot?" Ned gulped.
