That night:
"Put this on next!" Liz threw another shirt into my arms.
I sighed, "come on Liz, this is the third one!"
"Oh quit whining!" Liz hissed as she searched through the rest of my closet for other clothes to wear. "I got to say Peter you got some nice stuff in here. Heck, I didn't think a dork like you had style."
"Thanks Liz," I rolled my eyes as I stepped into my closet and changed, "actually I didn't really get those, Felicia did."
"Oh," Liz muttered slowly.
"You know Tiger, I'm proud of you," MJ said as she sat on my bed going through her phone, "you haven't done something like this in months."
"Months, try ever," Liz snorted, "Mr. Responsibility there doesn't do parties. But now that he's finally pulled himself out of that rut he got himself into I'm hoping we'll get a funner Peter Parker."
"Well I would hope so," I replied as I stepped out now dressed in black form fitting jeans with a bright purple shirt with the arms rolled up to my biceps and tucked into the pants. I had a coat vest over the shirt giving off the polished hipster look.
MJ looked over and whistled, "damn Peter, you look good."
"Not bad," Liz replied, "you know, you really should wear stuff like that more often. I mean, you have a ton of stuff like this in your closet yet you only wear this dumpy looking stuff."
"Well I'm not vain enough for that," I shrugged, "I usually just wear something nice to impress someone. And since you already know my other set of clothes is impressive enough as is it..."
"Well that's something," MJ shrugged, "hey, do you mind picking up Mark on the way over? He kind of doesn't have a ride."
"Sure, no problem, I mean, it's not like I can say no, Mark's the only normal male friend I have."
Liz blinked, "wait, seriously? You don't have any other guy friends?"
I shrugged, "well, yeah. I mean, I have plenty guy friends, but most of them are superheroes or adults. There's Johnny, Reid, Ben, Tony, Cap, David….and….ah….woah this is hard….woah, okay, I don't have many friends."
MJ chuckled, "some things never change."
We got ready soon, the girls already dressed for the evening when they came over. Liz wore a long red skirt and black top with a leather jacket over it while MJ wore a green pair of jeans, a bright yellow blouse and a long coat over her.
We walked downstairs just as Richard and Ben got in, they noticed us and blinked in surprise.
"Hey buddy," Ben said looking me up and down, "where are you all off it?"
MJ cleared her throat and began the immensely complicated lie she had prepared, "well you see Me. Parker Liz and I got invited to a friend's place-"
"-Party," I replied with a shrug, shocking MJ and Liz still, "we're going to a highschool party."
"I see...will there be drugs?"
I shrugged, "probably, but I won't need them."
"And loud music?"
"I hope."
"Will you drink?" Richard asked looking curious.
"I'm most certainly going to try," I nodded.
"I see...have fun," Richard smiled much to the girl's utter disbelief.
"Wait...seriously?!" Liz cried out.
Ben chuckled, "Liz dear, do you know how long we have been trying to get Peter to go out and have some fun for once? This is a welcome change! Haha," Ben ruffled my hair, much to Liz's distress as she spent half an hour getting it just right, "just be careful, alright?"
I smiled, "don't worry uncle Ben, I know, with great power-"
"-Comes great responsibility," said literally everyone else in the house.
With that down the girls and I got into my car and drove off, the location already in the system as Doc took over and drove away. We picked up Mark along the way, it took us fifteen minutes to reach, we had to park the car far away near a parking lot a block away, as technically, this place was boarded up.
The entrance was behind a barbed fence that had been propped open with a large crate. Standing gaurd was a scruffy looking kid around our age, maybe older. He was a lookout, making sure no cops came to investigate.
Mark played the kid twenty bucks to enter, and once we walked through we entered a tunnel that lead straight into the heart of the train station, which was a modern masterpiece.
The tracks served as the stage with twelve in total lines up against each other, we had plenty of place to move. The platforms served as the stage meaning we had two bands that would play side by side with the winner being the one that gained the most audience support.
In the back of the station was the bar with drinks being served in kegs and bottles of cheap ass whiskey. And right now, there were two bands battling out, music blaring through the sound system, almost deafening.
"Now this is what I'm talking about!" Mark cried out as he took charge, leading us into the mosh pit in the tracks.
I groaned, "I may have miscalculated how much humanity I can stomach in one night."
"Oh grow up," Liz snorted as she grabbed my arm and dragged me forward into the pit.
"Mark! You made it!" a couple of guys dressed exactly like makr, leather jacket and all, approached us.
