3: Calling

"I used to come up here when I didn't like staying at home, or.. really anywhere. It's a pretty nice place to just.. think." Gwen sighs with relief. "Think about what? Give me some examples." I say with a curious voice. She grins in response, not giving me an answer.

I look at her with a raised eyebrow. "Do you know why I brought you here?" She asks with a chuckle. I furrow my eyebrows, shaking my head a little. "To torture me? Because you know I still hate heights?" I say with a nervous chuckle. Gwen laughs in response.

"That and.. It's because.. I thought doing in this your room would be kinda lame." Gwen looks to the side. She clears her throat, looking at the bright neon city lights and back at me. Her hand slides closer to mine. "My room isn't that bad.." I scoff, looking to the side with a smile. "With your mom lurking around ready to kill me at any moment, I would think so."

I suddenly perk my head up, feeling Gwen slide her hand closer to mine. I bite my lip, smiling as Gwen places her hand on mine, causing me to blush as I quickly glance down and back up with my heart rate getting slightly faster. "Gwen Stacy, making moves on me already..?" I spell out with a cheeky grin.

"Just shut up.." Gwen pulls me in with the grip on my hand as our faces are barely inches apart. She bites her lip, a blush more prominent than it was before as she pierces into my eyes.

Unable to keep my confident facade, my eyes widen as I feel my face getting red as well. "Is this okay?" She asks with a just barely audible whisper. With half-closed eyes, I cup my hand around Gwen's cheek, nodding slowly. We both then move at the same time, causing our lips to touch for the first time.

I close my eyes as Gwen does too. It feels like I went to heaven and back. My palms were sweaty and my heart raced faster than anything. The kiss progressed, getting more passionate as Gwen cupped my face in both of her hands. I rested my hands on the platform, being fully enveloped into her.

After a few more moments, she pulls back slightly, catching her breathe and looking down. Pressing her forehead against mine gently, she smiles, showing her teeth. I open my eyes as well, slightly smiling as I continue to blush. "Shoot.. I have to get back.." I whisper, looking up at her with a cheeky grin.

Gwen lets out a disappointed sigh. "You have such a kissable face though.." She blushes before helping me up gently, continuing to look at me with a loving gaze. I pick up the leftover food as she lets me onto her back again. I hold on tightly, hugging her neck and resting my head against her back with a small grin and blush.

We swing across the city more, enjoying each other's company in comfortable silence. As we reach the rooftop of my apartment building, she places me down. Taking off her mask, she opens her mouth to say something. "So.. does this mean we're uh.. dating?"

I begin laughing, snorting loudly. "Are you serious?" I walk closer to Gwen, inching my face closer to hers. "If I'm not dating someone, I wouldn't kiss them." I say with a low voice and smirk, causing Gwen to blush. I then place my lips on Gwen's cheek before pulling back with a nervous smile compared to before.

"I'll see you later.. girlfriend." I exclaim, turning around and waving my hand as Gwen stands still, placing her hand on the cheek I had kissed and gaping her mouth open slightly. I begin walking down the fire exit stairs, and arriving at my room. I slowly open the window and step into the room.

I then sneakily go down into the kitchen, seeing as my mom is asleep and the apartment is more quiet than before. I open the fridge to put the leftovers in, and hurry back upstairs with fleeting steps. Closing the door with a tiny shut, I sigh with relief.
