Peter recovered within the next few days, with a little help from Bruce's medicine cabinet (which he gave us, don't worry) and he went back to school whilst I tried to figure out a way to keep myself busy.

Work was slow at the minute and there wasn't much I could do whilst Tony and the gang were out on missions or away on training.

Which leads us to now, at 2am in my flat, sat in the dim light of my living room.

My feet hung off the top of my sofa as my hair reached towards the floor, blood rushing to my head.

I couldn't help the long sigh that escaped me, reaching for my phone, and dialling Peter's number.

"Hey there pretty girl, bored already?"

I could hear him smiling through the phone, the faint sound of air making his voice sound distant.

"I hope you're not talking and swinging"

"of course not," he let out a huff, his voice clearer now "want me to swing by? I'll bring your favourite"

I bit my lip as a grin spread across my face.

"You're far too good to me"

"I know, I'm the best boyfriend, you can say it" laughter tumbled from my lips, heart soaring at my thoughtful lover.

"I certainly won't deny it, get your sweet butt over here"

"Roger that, love you"

"Love you too, swing safe"


"You were supposed to be the chosen one!"

I watched Peter mouth along to the TV, eyes fixed on the screen as he lay on my stomach, body nestled between my legs as we watched Revenge of the Sith.

I couldn't keep track of how many times we had watched these movies, don't tell Peter, but they were growing on me slowly.

We watched Anakin's downfall and soon enough the credits rolled, leaving the two of us watching the dark screen.


"It's such a good film"

I couldn't help but hum in agreement, his soft hair pulling slightly as he looked up at me with his big brown eyes.

"You actually like it?" I chuckled, returning his gaze with amused eyes.

"I never claimed that I didn't, they're great, just not my favourites"

"So, Halloween..?" he proposed hopefully.

"If you're suggesting that one princess Leia outfit, then definitely not" his smile widened, hands riding under the sides of my shirt whilst biting his lip.

"I would never" he replied playfully, "unless you wanted to"

He rose his eyebrows suggestively and I was quick to flick him.

"In your dreams Parker"

"Oh definitely" he pulled me down by my hips and my hand settled on his triceps as we gazed at each other.

"you're hearts beating so loud" he murmured, mostly to himself and I couldn't help but blush.

"I wonder why, loverboy" he caved then, pressing his lips to mine with such passion that I almost melted.

I pulled him closer, his chest pressing against mine as he supported his body above me, lifting my head so he could slide his hand into my hair.

His lips were still salty from the popcorn, and I loved it. One of my hands cupped his face, guiding his movements lazily and I felt him tug the ends of my hair slightly, breaking the contact but his attention moved to my neck, exposed skin being littered with kisses, and a light bite making my breath hitch. I couldn't help but arch against him which made him grin against my neck.
