Alright, now let's try this one last time... I'm Miles Morales! A.K.A. Brooklyn's one and only Spiderman. I was bitten by a radioactive spider and for the last year and 4 months, after the original Spiderman, Peter Parker died, that is, and in the span of that amount of time... A lot of events happened! Like my dad becoming chief, for example.

But the main thing we're focusing on right now is this girl Y/N Bolden... She's really pretty, she recently transferred to my school about 2 months ago, we met each other 3 times the day she first came! I remember it like it was yesterday, the first one was her bumping into me in the morning, and I held her hand! The second one was in the hallway, and she bumped into me again and I held her in my arms... The third time, I saw her at her job. We were the only 2 people there and she took my order!

That's not all though... I scored an ice cream date with her today... I even planned it myself. You can call me charismatic if you want, I don't care. I told quite a bit of people about Y/N, like my parents, my roommate, Ganke, and my two new friends, Pavitr and Hobie!

One day, though, she liked an old photo of me on Instagram that I'd completely forgotten about. She probably was scrolling on my Instagram, bored. I thought it was kinda cute, though, it seems like she likes me a lot by how her best friend Kaimana acts when I and Y/N are close to each other during the school day. She starts giggling and laughing... Hysterically.

Back to the date though... I was getting ready, about to head out when a criminal was doing the most... I sighed, ran back upstairs into my room, and put my spider suit on. But alas, the whole time I could think about Y/N as I was fighting the bad guy.

In the corner of my eye, I saw a girl with curly hair slicked back in a ponytail. I turned around to focus and it was Y/N, she had spotted me too, she had looked at me and shrugged. I started to panic a little because I really did not wanna stand her up... She was so pretty and I wanted her to know that I liked her... Like a lot.

Sadly I couldn't call for backup... Since I don't have my watch yet. So I had to fight a criminal and send them back to their dimension all by myself. It took me a while, but I was able to get the job done. Afterward, I saw Y/N walking back home after I had missed our date. There was a wave of guilt that had washed over me, and I really like Y/N too. But it seems as if she'll never know.

I tried thinking about what I could do to make it better for me and her and I came up with the idea of me going into her house through her window, cliche, I know, but as long as it works to save the relationship I hope we're going to have... At least someday.

I follow her home, in an attempt to be discreet and it somehow worked because though me shooting my webs made noise, she didn't say anything or look behind herself to see what was going on. Then, when she got into her house, I stayed in an alley and waited for about 15 minutes before shooting my web to knock on her window to be let in.

I slowly climbed up the wall to her window and start knocking on it. "Ma'am? Can you open the window...?" I ask her, disguising my voice a little. She came to the window and my spidey-senses started tingling, I could feel the upset vibe from her. She opened the window and greeted me.

I stared at her a for a little bit. Her makeup was running, especially her mascara and foundation.

"Hi, Spiderman. How are you?" she sniffles a little bit. The wave of guilt comes back and I already feel bad again.

"Y/N- I- I mean... I'm doing okay, you?" I tilt my head at her as I'm starting to feel even more guilty. Was she crying because of me? I hope not... But she could be, though.

She smiles and starts to vent. "I got stood up on a date by a guy that I really liked." she sniffles again before continuing. "It's okay though, I saw it coming."

Damn, was that really what she thought of me? A player?

"It's okay, miss, I'm sure he was just... Busy." I say, trying to make her feel better.

"You're right, but how could we know that?" Y/N asks me. I pause for a minute and kind of start to think.

"Should I tell her?" I look at her for a hard amount of time without realizing it.

"Sorry, ma'am! I think I need to tell you... Something important." I say. I forgot to cover my voice up a little. But who cares...? I'm about to show her my true identity.

"Okay...?" she says, sounding unimpressed. I take my mask off in front of her. She takes a hard look at me, I can feel her hard gaze on me.

"M-Miles?!" she said 2 minutes after looking at me.

"Yes, I can explain. I..." I try to form the words correctly without it being weird. "I'm Spiderman." I sigh after I say it.

"Where- Why- I-" she says. I know I surprised her... I kind of caught it coming in the first place. She throws herself backward on her bed when her head is in her hands.

I try to lighten the mood a little bit, but I get asked to leave instead. Before leaving, I nod and put my mask back on and wave at her before slinging my web.
