You breathe...i breathe

Peter

" Peter calm down, everything will be alright" Happy said, trying to comfort Peter who was crying on his couch.

" Happy what if i- what if I lost her? What if she...she had enough?" Peter said, hiding his face on his hands. Happy sat next to him on the couch and run his hands up and down his back.

" she is just upset Peter, you won't lose her over something you clearly didn't do. Try to calm down." Peter raised his head and looked at him with a tortured expression on his face.

"I don't understand, she said she trusts me and she...she knows me, Happy, how could she think that I would ever do that to her willingly? .."

"right now she is upset, just give her a little time and space and tomorrow everything will be alright." Peter let out a short breath and nobbed.

"C'mon now try and get some sleep you seem exhausted." Happy said and stood up from the couch and handed him the blanket that was in the sofa.

" can you not tell May about this? I don't want to upset her" Happy looked at him and smiled at him softly.

"sure kid, good night" he said and went to his bedroom, leaving Peter alone with his thoughts.

Peter was laying on the couch in the dark, thinking about everything that just happened. And the more he was thinking the more upset he became. He couldn't understand why she kicked him out. Yes Gwen kissed him but he didn't kiss her back and he told MJ the whole truth. He was mad at her right now although he knew he shouldn't be but he couldn't help it. She said she trusted him so why now he is laying on Happys couch instead of their own bed?!

He needed to clear his head and he couldn't sleep so he decided to put on his suit and go on patrol. He didn't want to think and he didn't want to feel mad with her so he just left Happy a note and went out in the dark.

He was swinging around New York City in case anyone needed spider-man but the city was awfully quiet. He was just standing on a rooftop feeling useless and sad, realizing that his idea of doing patrol tonight didn't actually work. The sun was about to rise when somehow his feet led him to his house rooftop. The same place where he asked her to move in with him and she said yes in a heartbeat. So he just laid there watching the sun come up and slowly drifting to sleep.

Michelle

Michelle spent her entire night thinking how unfair she was with Peter but she needed to be alone because she wanted to cry and she would rather die than cry in front of him.

She knew he was telling her the truth but that little voice in her head that always says to her that she isn't good enough for someone like him, someone who is literally a hero, got so loud and made her feel self conscious and scared. She fell asleep a little while after midnight, crying herself to sleep.

The next day Michelle woke up and decided to call Peter and tell him to come back and talk, before she leaves for work, but the call went straight to voice mail. It was strange for Peter not pick up his phone when she was calling. She thought that he might still be sleeping and she called Ned thinking that Peter probably went to him last night. But Ned had no idea where Peter was. So she decided to get dressed and go to Mays.

When she arrived to Mays apartment she saw her car in the parking lot which meant May didn't leave for work just yet. So she went to the elevator and straight to Peters old house. She couldn't wait to see him again. Its only been a few hours but she felt horrible being away from him. She arrived to Mays floor and knocked the door. May opened the door with a surprised look on her face.

"MJ sweetie I didn't expect you here today. Is Peter with you? come on in" May said and gave her a big hug and invited her into the house. Michelle was confused.
