Ben drummed his fingers against his knees and looked out the window as the lesson droned on. He hated being cooped up like this, it was better now that he had Spider time to let loose a little but it didn't make things suck too much less. Worst part was that he'd rushed out the door, no breakfast. And now he was starving.

Which his stomach took as a cue to rumble as loudly as possible in the middle of class.

Shoot. Hopefully nobody had heard that...

	Dante heard that and turned to look to see whose stomach was rumbling. He saw the look on Ben's face and grinned. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Ben shot Dante a sheepish shrug and tried to sign under the desk by taping his wrist and mouthing 'how much longer?' (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Dante looked at the clock on the wall. "Twenty minutes," he mouthed back. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Ben buries his face in his hands with a muffled groan. Twenty whole minutes?! Ugh, how would he survive? Cue another loud stomach grumble. Well now the teacher was shooting a look at him. Yippity yay. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	There were giggles from the other students. Dante shook his head and reached into his backpack. He grabbed a protein bar and flicked it back to Ben. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

He just shrugged innocently at the teacher and waited for them to turn back around and continue writing on the board.

Protein bar? Awesome! "You're my saviour here," he whispered as he caught the bar, careful to not make it look too practiced and easy.

Okay, now to carefully open it under the desk with minimal crinkle noises. Though everyone knew the slower you went the worse the whole process was.

	Dante decided to help his buddy out. He moved his arm, sliding his book off the desk. It landed with a loud noise that made a few people jump. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	And Ben takes advantage of the brief moment of loud noise and distraction to rip open the protein bar and toss a piece into his mouth. He gave Dante a discrete thumbs up while chewing. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Dante grinned and went back to focusing on the class. Twenty minutes later the bell rang signaling the end of class. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	onthewall 2013-06-17 07:40 pm UTC (link)
	Ben spends the next few minutes (quietly) devouring the protein bar. What? His metabolism was ridiculous. At the bell, he was packed up and ready to book it to lunch the moment his friend was ready. "Thanks for the bar. We heading out for lunch or cafeteria?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mad_skills 2013-06-17 07:51 pm UTC (link)
	"Let's head out," Dante said. "I think the caf is serving sloppy joes and we know first hand how they are." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Seriously, one time was more than enough. There's that burger place we can swing by." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Dude, my stomach still flips when I think of that," Dante said. "Burgers would be great." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	onthewall 2013-06-17 10:33 pm UTC (link)
	"Ugh, worst lunch ever. We're never doing that again. Burgers and fries it is! They've even got this awesome garlic mayo that comes with." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I don't know about that. The day we had that stuff they called Shepard's pie. I still don't know which is worse and I don't want to do any more comparing." Dante shuddered. "Let's go so we're back in time. I don't need another tardiness. I've gotten too many already this year." They were almost all because of girls and Dante wasn't going to complain too much.

	"Most of the stuff in the caf is not for ingestion at all," Ben wrinkled his nose. Ben slung his backpack over his shoulder as they made their way out. "Yeah, because some girl or few held you up. I'd like to be late for those reasons." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mad_skills 2013-06-18 12:31 am UTC (link)
	Dante gave Ben a slap on the back. "You need to hang around me more. Girls'll be making you late in no time." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	onthewall 2013-06-18 01:02 am UTC (link)
	"Only so they can get to you," he laughed. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Don't sell yourself short," Dante told him. "The girls will love you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"For my awesome ability to discretely eat in class right?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mad_skills 2013-06-19 12:30 am UTC (link)
	Dante shook his head. "Dude, you so need more confidence in yourself. The girls will dig you for who you are. Smart, funny, charming. I'd date you if I were a girl." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	onthewall 2013-06-19 12:53 am UTC (link)
	Ben laughed. "Thanks, now I just need to meet a girl with your tastes." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mad_skills 2013-06-19 12:54 am UTC (link)
	"I know a few," Dante said. He did. He was going to make sure he introduced Ben to them. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"You know a lot of girls and they all wish you'd pick just them. Like a Dante fanclub." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mad_skills 2013-06-19 01:00 am UTC (link)
	"Dude, I wish I had a fan club," he said. They exited the school and headed toward the burger joint across the street. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	onthewall 2013-06-19 01:07 am UTC (link)
	"Hey, just because they haven't gotten the posters for the weekly meetings printed yet doesn't mean they don't exist. Wonder what they call themselves...the Infernos? Dante's dames?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mad_skills 2013-06-19 04:59 pm UTC (link)
	"I don't have a fan club," Dante insisted. He had to chuckle at the names. "All they can talk about is the new Spider-Man. So he's the one with a fan club." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	onthewall 2013-06-19 05:58 pm UTC (link)
	Ben stopped in his tracks for a moment then rushed to catch up to his friend. "Good things right?" He hurriedly whispered. Hey, when it came to Spider-Man stuff you couldn't assumed positive reception. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mad_skills 2013-06-19 08:42 pm UTC (link)
	"All good," Dante assured Ben. "They think he's great and curious about the person under the mask." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	onthewall 2013-06-19 10:34 pm UTC (link)
	Ben frantically waved away the 'under the mask' bit. "Never mind that part. People like the new Spider-Man? Girls too?" He couldn't keep the smile off his face. He'd been a bit worried about bad reception honestly. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I can see your head getting bigger," Dante joked. "Knock it off." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Well maybe you can try out the spandex thing, expand your fanclub," he grinned back. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mad_skills 2013-06-19 11:04 pm UTC (link)
	"Me? Oh Hell no. I'll stick to a non-spandex life. I'm fine with people knowing who I am." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	onthewall 2013-06-20 12:34 am UTC (link)
	"I don't get what all you guys have against the spandex." And secret IDs, he really didn't get the whole public ID stuff. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I just don't see the need to hide my identity," Dante said as they reached the other side of the street. He opened the door and held it for Ben. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	onthewall 2013-06-20 11:08 pm UTC (link)
	"There's a lot of reasons," Ben responded as they walked into the place. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mad_skills 2013-06-21 11:43 pm UTC (link)
	"Not for me," Dante said. "Doesn't matter to me." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	onthewall 2013-06-25 02:57 am UTC (link)
	Ben might've pointed out about villains going after your family if they weren't entering the burger place. So instead he shrugged and turned his attention to the posted menu. "Alright real food!" And none of that cafeteria stuff. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mad_skills 2013-06-25 08:48 pm UTC (link)
	Dante pitied anyone who messed with his family. His parents and his sisters were in the life and had a history of kicking ass, but Dante understood where Ben was coming from. (Reply to this)(Parent)
