~Months later
It all seemed to happen in a fast, unrealistic blur. I wanted all of this to be some terrible, surreal dream.
Getting ran out of the house, in to Peter’s car, him driving like a speed demon, Me not understanding at first, Him pulling up to the middle school, Me running out to one of Rosie’s friends, her telling me she hasn’t seen Rose since this morning when she got off the bus and she wondered off to a car saying she knew the guy in it. My heart sank as Peter drove off, leaving me there. I knew he had to act quick on his senses, I knew he had to respond to whatever clue he got on where Derek and Rose went as quickly as he got them to insure Derek doesn’t have time to change his mind.
I sat on the front steps of the building. I went cycles from crying in my hands and rocking back and forth, to hitting the pavement shouting out profanities towards Derek and cursing him for doing to my sister- my little sister. The girl I had sworn to that I wouldn’t let anything to happen to- The girl who had been kidnapped.
I couldn’t stand the paranoia, the questions, the anticipation.. I was growing more and more impatient by the minute.
-try to stay calm babe. I’ll be there soon.- text from Peter Pan!!
No word about Rose? That’s odd, but that’s how I knew something was wrong. If he had gotten her, he would have told me. I went through yet another crying phase and soon got scooped up. I looked up and it was Peter.
“Pet-“ he cut me off by saying ‘shh’ soothingly.
“Don’t talk. I’m sorry I left you here, but I was in a rush.” He said and kissed my forehead before putting me in the front of his car.
“Where are you going?” I asked softly as I started to calm down.
“Bringing you to my place so I know you’re safe. Then I’m going back out to look for her.
He soon parked the car in front of his house and we walked up to his room.
“Steal whatever you need alright? I’ll be back.” He smiled. I chuckled lightly and he went towards the window.
“Peter Parker!” I yelled in a whisper.
“My mom will throw a fit if she hears me leave the house!” he whispered as he opened the window slowly.
“Here.” I sighed, lifting up his keys about to throw them to him.
“No, no. I do better on my feet. No traffic, and I’m faster.” He winked. He gave me one last smile before jumping out the window.
I got up and left the window open just a crack, then went to his closet to take him on his offer and steal a t-shirt.
I tried my hardest to stay awake and be up for him when he got back, but I passed out after 3 hours of waiting for him.
~Peter’s Point Of View
After 5 hours I had finally rescued Rose. She was scared out of her mind, but didn’t have a scratch on her.
“Who are you?” she asked curiously, as I was flying her back to her house.
She didn’t seem to realize that she was in the arms of a guy who was shooting webs onto people’s houses, flying around. She just stared at my masked face in awe.
“Spider.. boy.” I said slowly, realizing that although I had the cover down- I hadn’t thought of a name for myself. She started laughing as she continued to stare.
“Spider boy?” she asked.
“Yes” I nodded simply.
“Change it..” she sighed. I chuckled.
“To what exactly?” I asked
“Spider-Man. Spider boy sounds too cookie cutter..” she laughed. I smirked, Although she couldn’t see it. I dropped her outside her front door carefully and knew Brendan was wide awake.
“you tell him the truth ok? But don’t mention me. Tell him anybody but me took you home, ok? “ I said. She nodded and opened the front door. I ran home and crawled up to my window.
I took the suit off and changed, then walked over to the bed next to Aubrey. I was thinking about anything and everything but sleep as I realized she was only wearing a t-shirt. I turned off the light next to me and wrapped my arms around her, pulling her close to me glad she was safe and warm in my arms.
“Spider-Man.” Aubrey smiled the next morning after I had told her. I nodded with a smile and she leaned her head on my chest and yawned.
“More like Amazing Spider-Man.” She murmured, hugging me tightly.
“Really?” I chuckled, tracing shapes on her back with my thumb.
“Yup. You’re Amazing. You go out of your way to save anyone and everyone, you make extra sure my family and I are the safest, you spend most of your night running around looking for my sister.. you’re amazing Peter” she chuckled happily.
“Well you just know how to make someone’s morning perfect don’t you?” I asked with a smile as I leaned down and kissed the top of her head.
“You know what makes you even more amazing?” she giggled.
“What? My charming good looks?” I joked, she started laughing.
“Well, there’s that.” She nodded approvingly “but, also you’re mine.” She giggled.
“You got that right.” I said. We got quiet after that.
a comfortable loving quiet.
She looked up at me and smiled, I returned the favor- although her smile could beat mine any day.
“You’re my amazing Spider-Man” she said proudly. I nodded and she pulled herself up and kissed me.
