LIVING ON THE-

Spider-Man swings across the streets of Manhattan heading towards the West side just above Hell's Kitchen where he last saw the mysterious woman.

"Hey Spidey's back!" A random bystander exclaims.

"Glad to have ya back Spidey!"

"Go Spider-Man!"

"Thank you all!" He calls back waving mid air before continuing to swing away.

He lands on the side of a building, looking around at the area he had that nasty fall in wondering if he could spot her through the various people walking around.

He spots a woman with long brown hair hastily speed walking across the street in a black business suit checking her watch.

He didn't know how to approach this situation, he didn't want to make her feel uncomfortable in anyway since the media would love to make a story outta them the chance they get.

Plus Jameson, Ooh how he loathed that man at times. It just already egged him how he would slander the woman by antagonizing him with some false bull crap as if he was Dracula preying on women for their blood.

Contemplating ripping his 'stache off aside, he wasn't gonna get anywhere with this way of thinking besides he shouldn't let the media's opinion matter when it comes to taking chance on dating.

He front flips from the side of the building and lands down in front of him making her yelp in surprise as Spider-Man was in front of her again in better shape.

"You!" She manages to exclaim out, people around them looking at them.

"Me." He replies, gesturing to himself. "Sorry to startle you during your lunch break but I wanted to talk to you."

"Oh, oh okay." She blinks at him, feeling the multiple eyes looking at them.

"In private." He tells her, offering his hand out to which she slowly takes his hand before he pulls her in by her waist and the two swing away with Wanda holding onto him for dear life.

They land on top of a nearby rooftop, Wanda looking frazzled before smoothing her hair back and taking a deep breath.

"Warning next time?"

"Sorry, kinda my thing."

"So um what does a hero like yourself want to talk with me about?" She asks curiously, her hands behind her back and twisting around her foot.

"I wanted to thank you for helping me out personally, wasn't for you my situation would've been trickier."

"Oh it's no problem Spider-Man, just wanted to help out is all."

"I wanted to thank you another way as well, would you go out with me?"

"What?" She asks, her face looking like it was about to pop out from itself. "You want to go out on a date w-with me?"

"Sure, I mean not in the suit obviously that would be kinda inappropriate for a date but if you wish to accept my one time offer-"

"I mean yes! B-But I mean I'm surprised you'd want to go out with some busy single mom from Jersey with grey hairs." She says looking away with a blush on her face, running her hands through a long strand of her hair.

*She's a mom!? Oh Petey life threw yet another surprise at you.* Spider-Man's lenses widen but didn't deter instead approaches her with a response.

"Hey, grey hairs are reversible ya know?" He tells her, getting a ammused chuckle.

"When and where then Spider-Man?" She asks, looking back up at him with a encouraged smile on her face.

"Tomorrow at eight, Nick's Diner." He fishes out the business card of the restaurant with his number on the back.

She takes it in her hand grinning at it before tucking it away in her pocket.

"I hope to see you there then Spider-Man."

"I never got your name."

"Wanda, Wanda Django Maximoff." She tells him, Spidey smiling behind his mask before he lowers her back down on the street. He gestures her goodbye before swinging away with a WOOOO!

Wanda takes out the card and looks at the number on the back smiling.

*I can't believe I'm going to date Spider-Man.*
