"Miguel, did you find someone new?" Peter B sat on Miguel's desk, "or you fall in love with someone?"
"What? What makes you think that?" Miguel raised his eyebrows, unable to believe Peter B asked him that question.
"You are laughing more often, especially at inappropriate moments, everyone is more scared of you than before, but I would never be scared of you," the pink fur coat laughed.
"Is that obvious?"
"Mhm."

Miguel looked at Peter B, he just sighed and walked away. Miguel couldn't believe that he actually had that behavior when he was working.

He just misses Eve very much.

He misses her voice. Her laugh. Her touch.

"That small waist," Miguel whispered out, he immediately facepalm, to as well, cover that reddened face.

Miguel has to get off work fast, so he could see Eve soon.

"Miguel, you gotta see this," Lyla pops up out of nowhere, showing Miguel the head news of his universe.

The news played several dead bodies found in an apartment, the apartment is rusty and dirty, it must've been a mafia hideout. To be honest, this kind of news isn't really important because to keep the citizens from worrying about their safety, news won't report news like the Mafia. The news continued, mafia gangs are slowly decreasing from the surface, and bad activities lessened.

"Is this our hero, Spiderman doing, or someone we never know about? Keep in touch, we will report to you as soon as we get the news."

Lyla looked at Miguel, concerned. She knows it isn't Miguel, or the other Spider man, because they are hardly allowed to be out of the building.

And Spider Man doesn't kill.

"Check the civilian camera, see whether you can track the person who did it, whoever that is, could be our enemy or allies, find it out before things went wrong."
"On it."

Miguel shakes the nervous thoughts he had for the news and continues his way to meet up with Eve.

*

"Here?"
"Yeah, it looks perfect," Eve leaned forward and gave Miguel a kiss.
"The bed isn't here yet Mi Amor," he let out a soft chuckle.
"We don't need a bed, Miguel," Eve kissed Miguel again.

Another two months passed, it's been seven months since they first met. Strangers to friends, then now they are lovers. After their first kiss and confessing each other's feelings to each other, they decided to move in together, somewhere near the HQ.

Just because of the news about many mafia gangs are found dead.

Miguel wanted Eve to be safe, so he suggested Eve move in with him.

"Ah, the infamous girlfriend!" A head peeks out from the doorframe.
"What are you doing here?" Miguel sighed, as he tried to massage his head from the headache he's having right now, with Peter B showing up.
"I heard you were moving, I just thought of coming to see your new house!" Peter B has a big smile on his face, there's a small human on his head, a baby.
"Who's this cutie?" Eve reaches out her hand to see if the baby wants hugs.
"This is Mayday, my daughter."

Mayday didn't hesitate a second and just went into Eve's arms.

"Nice to meet you Mayday," Eve smiled.
"This is Peter," Miguel introduced.
"Miguel and I are work buddies!" Peter B immediately stood next to Miguel and hit his back.

Miguel just stares at Peter B with annoyance.

Spider Man isn't really allow to leave the building.

"Jess is asking for you, you gotta show up man, I know girlfriend is important but you got work to do," Peter B said.
"I am literally your boss," Miguel sighed, "you done with your visit, now go."
"Alright boss, alright say goodbye Mayday."

Mayday held up her arm and started shaking it as she get back into Peter B's arms.

"Bye bye Mayday," Eve waved her hand and watched the father and daughter walk away, "okay, I am now very tempted to go to see your workplace."
"Mi Amor."
"Please," Eve used her doll eyes and begged Miguel.
"I," Miguel is trying his best to deny those doll eyes, "give me some time to sort it out first," but he couldn't resist it.

Finally Miguel prepared to finish his speech for Eve about the HQ, he wanted to explain everything to Eve first before she just sees it and gets shocked about it.

An urgent call disturbed his plan.

Somehow, three anomalies appeared in the same universe at the same time. Spider society has never experienced it before. Jess, Peter B, Ben, Miguel and many more are called to that mission.

There were no signs shown during the days they went for the mission. Only on the fifth day, everyone came back wounded. Jess and her baby are fine but she will be needing some treatment. Peter B's spider man suit has some torn parts which he would probably ask MJ to help him fix.

"You're back!" Eve hugged Miguel the moment he showed up at the door, it's already night so Eve wasn't really able to see Miguel's face but she knew it's him.
"Wait Eve," Miguel started to cough up badly, as the light finally shines on Miguel, his spider suit starts to seem visible.
"Miguel, are you okay? What are you wearing?" Eve started to panic, she has never seen Miguel like this, it totally freaked her out.
"Once everything is done, the first thing I want is to see your beautiful face," Miguel looked at Eve, he wrapped his arms around her waist.

He's very tired.

"Come on, I'll help you clean up," Eve slowly carried Miguel. Her weight is kinda crashing onto Eve's, she's not used to carrying that much weight on her shoulder but she just bears through it.

Eve gently places Miguel on the couch, asking him how to take off the suit. Then she gently wiped on the wounds with clean water. Miguel wasn't able to keep his eyes open, the last moment he remembers is the worries on Eve's face as she gently cleaned him up.

He felt bad to make Eve feel this way.

He hates it.

He wants to fix it immediately.

But he knows that Eve would ask him to stay put and let her clean his wounds.

So he did, and fell asleep.
