Mary Jane Watson: pulling you aside Hey, you seeing Harry? He looks... tense. Think he knows?
I don’t think so but you should go talk to him before he finds out some other way
sigh Yeah, you’re right. Thanks.
approaching Harry, she gently touched his arm
Hey, Harry... can I talk to you for a moment?
no he doesn’t know yet but I think you should tell him now
sighs
I know, I know. I just don't want it to ruin things between us. We're getting married, after all... but I guess keeping it from him isn't fair either.
The next day at school they have a science project due tomorrow so MJ goes over to Peter's house
MJ arrives at Peter's house, holding her science project box
Hey, Pete! Got the project done?
her voice lowers as she glances around Well, I don't know how much longer I can keep this from him. I mean, we're getting married soon, and I'm not sure how he'll react when he finds out it wasn't just the stress that made me "lose my appetite" for a few weeks...
I don’t know but it’s best if he doesn’t find out till we’re ready for him too
nodding Yeah, that's what I think. If he finds out from someone else, he'll just go on one of his rages. Can't let that happen... sighs I just wish I knew why he's so mad.
sighs in relief Good, that's good. I don't want him to find out yet. Not until I know what I'm gonna do about the baby.
no he doesn’t know Harry comes over to king and starts talking to him
MJ watches Harry approach you, looking concerned as she overhears his conversation
I don't think so. Do you want me to talk to him?
frowning Yeah, that'd be great. I'm too nervous to approach him right now. Just try to find out what's bothering him, alright?
no he doesn’t know and he probably won’t find out
sighs I hope so. I don't know how he'll react. I mean, we were supposed to get married... but I just couldn't help myself. Ethan was so charming, and I was lonely...
I don’t think so but why?
whispering Because he's been giving me the cold shoulder since the last time we talked. And he's been acting weird... I'm pretty sure he's figured out I'm pregnant.
sees him getting mad at me so I walk away
MJ watches you leave
Uh-oh...
She sees Harry walking towards you and quickly follows, hoping to calm him down before it escalates.
king goes to harry what’s up man?
Harry looks frustrated, standing by the bar with his drink
Harry: sighs I don't know, man. MJ keeps acting weird.
I think he does but don’t worry he will be fine just give him some time
sighs I hope so. He's my fiancé, I can't lose him. But he's been distant lately and I have a feeling he's onto me.
looking around nervously I don't know, he's been acting weird all night. I'm worried he might have figured out that I'm... you know, pregnant.
I think so…he has been acting strange lately
looks around for a moment Yeah, me too. But we can't let him find out... yet.
I don’t know but why are you asking me?
nervously Well, he's been acting weird, and I'm worried he might have guessed. We had a fight earlier, and I think I might have let something slip...
I look at Harry, then back at Mary. "He's tense, alright. Maybe it's just wedding jitters."
MJ shakes her head Nah, it's more than that. Trust me, I know him. Something's got him spooked. And I don't want him to find out about... her stomach ripples slightly...this.
looking around Good, that's good. I don't know how he'd react if he found out about Ethan...
biting her lip It was a mistake, I know, but he was charming and handsome and I was lonely and vulnerable...
