The Tragedy of Mary Jane Stark

Fireworks

Mj, Peter, and Ned all got nestled in a little area on the balcony, just waiting for the fire works. Ned got bored of talking to them and started playing on his phone.

Mj resorted to playing with Peters hand, looking around anxiously. However trying to hide her anxiety from Peter. Loud noises frightened her yes, but she felt stupid to leave because of fire works.

She was doing a good job pretending she wasn't nervous, Peter thought she was completely fine.

"We should get married on Naboo." Peter told her not caring to whisper, the music was too loud anyway.

"Naboo isn't a real place." Mj giggled.

"Well it was filmed in Italy. Let's get married in Italy." He rested his chin on her shoulder.

"We were just in Italy last winter." Mj said laying her back on his chest.

"Yeah well I got attacked by a crazy guy with drones so that doesn't count." Peter said it to be humorous but Mj got serious.

"Beck doesn't still bother you, right?" She turned her head slightly to look at him.

"No, no I'm not having nightmares anymore. I think having Miles to go out with me has helped." Peter said quietly.

"Hey Peter! Come help me light the fire works. Mj come too Michelle's over here." Harry ran over to them.

Peter helped Mj up and ran along with Harry. Mj stood next to Michelle and the woman she met earlier, Gwen.

"So what did you and Harry do for the last half an hour." Mj asked Michelle, her eyebrow raised. "Your lips look a little swollen." Mj teased.

"Oh stop it." Michelle rolled her eyes. "I mean your not wrong but stop."

Mj laughed and looked over at Harry pushing people back. So he and Peter had space to light the fire works. Mj and Michelle were the closets to the fire works talking. Gwen was standing with them but not saying anything. Peter walked towards them.

"Hey gorgeous back up for me. I don't want you to get hit by them."Peter said pulling her back towards the wall. "S-sorry. I'm just nervous."

"I'm fine Pete." Mj assured him. "Go light fire works with your friend." Peter smiled and ran back to help Harry carry the fire works onto the balcony.

"Jesus dude why weren't you on the football team! That's like 70 pounds and you make it look like two!" Mj heard Harry shout.

"So Gwen, where are you planning to go to college?" Michelle asked making awkward small talk.

"Oh I'm actually interning at OSCORP under Dr Osborn. What about you guys?" Gwen asked seeming genuinely interested.

"Well I'm going to Queens College." Michelle replied.

"Peter and I might take online classes, maybe. He is actually wanting to apply to be a photographer for the Daily Bugle so that might take up most of his time. So we aren't sure yet." Mj replied, anxious that she might have over shared.

"Oh that's cool! Harry was telling me that he was a great photographer." Gwen recounted.

"He really is. You should see some of the shots he gets of Mj." Michelle said bragging for Mj cause she knew Mj wouldn't.

"Well of course they come out amazing, he's got a great model." Gwen compliment.

Mj just blushed. She couldn't believe she was jealous toward Gwen merely an hour ago. She had no reason to be, Harry didn't tell Gwen Peter was with someone else. It wasn't Gwens fault at all.
