"I'm gonna worry about you either way Peter. Not knowing, I'm gonna worry because you keep disappearing and ditching me coming home with bruises. And now knowing I'm gonna worry because a giant lizard did this to you. Basically either way I'm gonna...
It's been two months and I still haven't told Peter about me having the same powers as him. Since he did show me the stuff to make the web shooters, I've been making them for him and kept sneaking some for myself to practice. I've also bought myself/made a suit to match him just for fun or to go out and swing around.
Hell, I didn't even tell him about the stupid thing I was doing at the moment. I was outside of the institution Harry was in. I know it was dumb but I wanted to thank him for trying to save me.
Yeah, you could say he was sorta responsible for Gwen's death and a lot of bad shit but I still cared for him. I hated that I did but I couldn't help it. I felt bad for him because he was just scared of not wanting to die... He just went the wrong way about it.
"I wanna see Harry Osborn." I tell the man at the gate making him laugh. "I'm serious."
"Young lady you have no right being here. I don't even know how you got all the way here but you need to leave." The man laughs at me more.
"My name is Madeline Josephine Ellis, not young lady. Now let me in to see him." I growl at him as another man walks up next to me.
"Why do you wanna see him?" He looks down at me.
"I wanna just talk to him." He looks at the men and says I'm with him so they let us in. "Why did you lie?" I ask the man as we walk.
"He'll be happy to see you. He already knows you've been out of a coma." The man says.
"How did he even know?" I asked, confused.
"Had me keep tabs on you till you were out of the hospital."
"That's weird and creepy and I don't want to know. I just want to thank him for trying to save me." I avoid looking at the man till he grabs my arm stopping me.
"You can't see where we go from here." He puts a blindfold out to me and I give him a look saying I don't trust him.
"Do you want to see him or not? It's this or you leave without seeing him." I take the blindfold and put it on as he walks me.
As we make our way through the building I hear code after code put into doors as we get to different parts. "She's with me." He tells a few men so they know I could come in. "You can take it off now."
I take it off to see a heavy ass door, like for a vault, open to show the back side of Harry. "Leave them." He says and I get locked in the room with Harry.

"Harry." I say his name and he slowly turns his head to look back at me. He looked normal again, making me slightly smile, "Look at you."
"What are you doing here?" He stands up, coming up to me.
"I wanted to thank you... for trying to help me..." He stops super close to me.
"You somehow got him to get you in just so you could thank me? Or are you trying to help Peter in here?'' He leans closer to my face.
"Peter doesn't know I'm here. No one does, expect you and that man."
"You should hate me." He chuckles.
"Well I don't... I'm hurt that you did what you did to hurt me to hurt Peter. I can't believe you had that man keep tabs on me in the hospital."
"I wanted to make sure you were okay." He stares into my eyes.
"Because you loved me.."
"Because I love you." He corrects me.
"I'm sorry, Harry. That this is how everything turned out for you. I wanted to help you. If you gave us time we could've tried and tested to see if you were compatible for his blood."
"Did you really ever care about how I felt about you? Do you even feel the same or did you just play with me?" Harry ignores what I said.
"Of course I cared. I had feelings for you too," He cuts me off.
"But you will always love Peter. It will always be Peter!" He walks me back till my back hits the wall.
"Until I fall out of love with him... yes."
"You'll never love me like I love you." He gets up in my face.
"I was close to it..."
"Lies." He narrows his eyes at me.
"No, I'm not lying. Spending time with you when you first got back made me really happy because I was hurting. You were making my heart feel full again when I was with you... Every time you kissed me I kissed you back, because I was also falling for you. I loved you but just wasn't in love with you 100% yet." His eyes soften up.
"I should go now. I came to thank you and I did."
"Why do you still care about me?" He takes my hand into his.
"I feel bad for you. You were just scared because you didn't want to die. It was the suit wasn't it? That cured you because it heals you when you put it on." He nods his head as I knock on the door to leave.
"Maddie... I'm sorry." He says as the door opens.
"I know... You may have hatred in your eyes and heart for Peter, but when you look at me... with those beautiful eyes, it all goes away." I walk up to him. "Goodbye, Harry." I kiss his cheek before walking out of the room.
I'm escorted out blindfolded till I get outside this time, "Don't come back." They tell me as I walk off, giving a thumbs up since I didn't plan on coming back. When I get home I go over to Peter's to see what he was doing.
"Ca-!" Peter starts to yell as I open his door to see a Med ball flying towards my face quickly but I lean out of the way dodging it.
"What the hell? Why are you experimenting in your room with the door unlocked!" I shout at him picking up the ball. "What are you trying to do anyways? See how fast you can slingshot it? And why?"
"How did you dodge that so fast? I barely got to say careful before you leaned out of the way." He takes the ball from me. "And this ball weighs 50 pounds. When are you able to easily pick it up like nothing?" Peter eyes me.
"I've been working out. I don't look it but I have." I laugh walking over to his bed.
"Madeline." Peter eyes me.
"What, Peter?"
"Whatever... What did you do earlier today?" He asks, turning his back to me.
"Went to visit the boys and Helen." I lie to him.
"That's nice." He turns back jumping into me kissing me. "Have I told you I love you?" He makes me giggle as he kisses me.
"You have and I have said it back to you." I cup his face kissing him back.
Peter grabs my hands slowly bringing them above my head but stops as we hear sirens outside, "Duty calls." He groans, getting up putting on his suit and leaves quickly.
I get up going home and see my aunt with her boyfriend, who was an old boyfriend she dated in high school, in the kitchen laughing away. "What's so funny?" I walk over to them.
"We have some news." My aunt puts out her hand showing me a ring.
"Wow!" I was shocked but happy for her.
My aunt ends up telling me Danny and her were saying it would be better for her to move in with him and I could live with her by myself. To be honest I was completely fine with that. She was a grown adult and deserves to live her life not taking care of me anymore. I was old enough to live alone plus with her job she's never home so it wasn't new to me. They already have had things changed to my name so I owned the place now. She said she and May talked about having Peter move in with me so I wasn't alone. And since we would be four doors down we can always still check in on May.
