Who cares, baby,
I think I wanna marry you

Ned, MJ, and I fall by the impact but Ned and I managed to hold to the metal bars while MJ didn't. I quickly grab a hold of her hand. I'm not letting another girl die from my hands.
"I- I got you," I say to her and I see a glimpse of Gwen for a second as MJ looks up to me. "I got you," I say to her again and she nodded her head. Then with all my strength, I manage to pull her up so she can get a hold of the metal bars.
I just save her. I save her. I did it. "Jesus, you're heavy," I say to her causing her to chuckle. "We're okay. We're okay. Just don't look down," I say to both of them.
Then I feel my hands get slippery. Shit, not again. I scream as I fall. This brings me back to the night Gwen died. Only this time I look up rather than to the ground.
I see this world Peter dives down to rescue me. He got closer and closer and our fingers grace with each other but he got swept away by Norman. Fuck.
I close my eyes as I feel the chill breeze circling my body. Is this how I die? Exactly like how Gwen died. I guess so. Gwen, here I come. It's been one hell of a ride.
Suddenly I feel someone catch me and picked me up bridal style as we land. I open my eyes and I see my Peter. He caught me. He looks shaken when he looked at me.
I smile as I put my forehead against his and close my eyes. "I knew you'd always catch me," I say to him softly as we both sigh in relief. "You okay?" he said to me and I nodded. "I'm okay," I said as he puts me down on the ground.
We hugged tightly afraid to let each other go. "I'm okay. I'm okay," I muttered to him repeatedly to assure him as I buried my face in his neck. "You okay?" I ask him and he nodded. "Yeah, I am,"
"That was so scary," I say to him and he hugs me closer as if that's even possible. "I know. I thought I lost you. I don't know what I'd do if I lost you too,"
"But you didn't. I'm okay. I'm safe," I say to him as I broke out of the hug to look at him. "Marry me," he said and it shocked me. "I'm sorry, what?" I ask him as if I didn't hear him the first time. "Marry me,"
"Peter, it's probably just the adrenaline rush," I replied and he shook his head. "No, I've been waiting to propose to you for a long time. I already bought the ring and all that but I was just finding the right moment. Until I almost lost you a moment ago. It made me realize that there won't be a perfect time. So, I'm asking you now,"
His confession left me speechless. Do I want to marry him? Of course. I never picture anyone beside him in my future. We already lived with each other. This is the next step, right?
We talked a lot about marriage. Just as a joke not as a serious thing. I think I've always known he was going to propose. With all those dinners in a fancy restaurant or at our apartment.
But the thought of Peter should be with MJ crossed my mind. Two universes of Peter end up with MJ. It's not a coincidence. Maybe it's his destiny to be with one. I can't fight destiny. Maybe I'm just blocking his way to meeting the love of his life.
My thoughts were interrupted when another explosion makes the shield fully destroy the construction. My Peter quickly swings us away from the rebel. "Ned and MJ. We have to get them," I say to him and not long after that, I see Ned with a cape. Is that a cape? Yeah, I think is.
Ned is holding MJ as they land safely. I sigh in relief when I saw that. Then we land on the ground. "Okay, I think we need to make some rules that whenever I'm in battle you should stay put,"
