The Tragedy of Mary Jane Stark

Eddie Brock

For the next week, Eddie would come in seemingly everytime Mj worked. Well he came in every evening according to Michelle. She had been working every shift she could get in hopes to save up some money before college.

Eddie always got one coffee and everything off the pastry menu. Scarfing it down, talking to himself, than leaving.

It happened to be a late night, Eddie hadn't shown up yet. However Peter decided to pop in, not as Spider-Man but as Peter Parker.

"What are you doing in here." Mj was pleasantly surprised.

"I just feel bad I haven't visited you before." Peter smirked.

"Oh my god." Michelle groaned from her seat on the mop bucket. Mj just ignored her and giggled.

"Well good, I feel like I haven't seen you in forever." Mj leaned over the counter and kissed him.

"And I came too." Harry piped up from behind Peter. "We also brought this child." Harry said awkwardly.

"I am not some child; I am almost 16." Miles huffed.

"Harry!" Michelle said. She practically jumped over the counter and flung her arms around Harry.

"Hey sexy." Harry laughed as he hugged her back.

"How could you possibly find me attractive right now. This uniform is so colorful and ugly." Michelle groaned.

"You look pretty ." Peter was flustered as Mj reached over the counter to kiss him again. He complimented the red head.

"You look pretty too." Mj smirked.

"Boy do I feel lonely." Miles sighed. "Maybe I can make out with uh, hey there's a man coming maybe he can be a suitor. Oh wait he looks homeless... and sweaty. And I'm not gay." Miles said.

"Oh that's Eddie! This is the man I was telling you guys about. Go sit down Michelle and I are about to be busy." Mj said pushing the boys to a table.

"Hey Mary Jane Princess how you doin tonight." Eddie walked in and went up to the counter. "You feelin all right your face looks real red."

"I should be asking you the same thing. You look sweatier than usual." Mj joked and Eddie laughed. "You want the usual Eddie?"

"Yea, thank you sweetie." Eddie put his card in and Michelle had already started getting all the pastries.

"Still no sugar in your coffee?" Mj asked.

"Nah. Thank you though sweetheart." Eddie pulled his card out.

"Yeah I don't like sugar either. I like my coffee black too." Mj handed him the coffee.

"Is Mj hitting on me?" Miles asked.

"What?" Peter looked confused at Miles.

"Oh Eddie I'm so sorry, I meant to introduce you, this is my- this is Peter." Mj said not ready to have Harry know they were engaged.

"Ahh nice to meet you." Eddie held out his hand for Peter to grab. Peter had a familiar face on, Mj recognized that look. His Spide Sense was going off. Miles had the same face. "I heard a lot about you man."

"Nice to meet you too." Peter hesitated to take his hand.

"Aww I promise I don't bite." Eddie joked. "Shut up v." He whispered to himself.

Peter took his hand.

"Here Eddie." Michelle handed him his tray of pastries.

"Oh thank you princess." Eddie said taking the tray and sitting at his usual seat. Mj sat next to Peter, knowing there'd be no other customers that evening.
