CHAPTER THREE
RESCUE MISSION
you knew, if you remained here any longer, this world would be fucked up, no sugar coating that. miles left, funny he thought you wouldn't try leaving. maybe not knowing you well after all. you couldn't be the reason why the multiverse would become nonexistent. you didn't even ask to be here.
you had some time, figuring and escaping. finding the hole you came from, could appear so you would take advantage of that. you sneak out. his uncle, who was alive apparently here, didn't even suspect anything.
you entered outside, shivering from how cold new york had gotten. however, when you walk even further, you hear, "there she is!" you turn around.
more, spider people?
you stood there in confusion, only recognizing miles from your dimension. you froze in fear, but mostly shock. "who are you? and how did you end up here? the tall male said, his voice and figure intimidating. you nervously reply, "i... just ended up here. i swear. no evil intentions, if you think that."
one of the spider people whispered,"miguel, i really think she is being honest." "i doubt so, how could a civilian unintentionally go to a new universe just like that? he asks. you sigh, miles would believe you, right? "i know her, she's innocent! miles defended.
miguel replied, "well you weren't supposed to be with us, either. but here you are." "look, some rift opened and i ended up here, now, we should really go now, please, you begged, surprising everyone. you couldn't openly explain you were most likely being watched. or, he would know you fled.
you were sure only one spiderman existed, but you were wrong. there were more, just not in your dimension. "hm, the woman beside miguel said. you liked her, she seemed cool. another stood by miles, her costume white and pink.
"she seems innocent enough."
miguel sighed before giving in, speaking in spanish, which you understood, you wondered if he knew. how ironic if he didn't. you followed behind them. you really wanted to go home. you looked around.
"i seriously just want to go home, ¿es tan difícil? you murmur in spanish, miles seems surprised, "you speak spanish?" "mhm, you replied, confused on how he was surprised, but maybe he never heard you speak spanish before.
"yo también, he replied. you giggle, walking beside him. miguel was, in your mind, slightly intimidating. and obviously, he seemed annoyed you were here. kind of rude, since you didn't plan on even leaving home.
"can i go home now? you asked. miguel groans. when you see his appearance, you're taken aback. he is very attractive, however, you kept your thoughts under control. you were eighteen, and he was obviously older.
plus, you were getting under his nerves. you needed to go home. eventually, you managed to go home, with relief. "if you say anything... miguel begins, when you interrupt, "i know. i know. i won't, i swear. you helped me. so i'll help you."
he sighs, but didnt reply, miles followed you. you were in his dimension, so he couldn't really go with. "oh, i forgot you were from here, you chuckle. he chuckled back."yeah, gwen came here, so i came with her. miguel nearly killed me on the spot."
"oh wow, wait, gwen? you say, confusion in your voice. nothing else. nothing else, you repeated in your mind. "uh, this happened before, not like this but you know... miles said. "ohh, you say. "she's your friend from a different universe? cool."
miles snickers. "what? you say. he shrugs. "nothing. see you around." you nodded, going inside your house. "¿mamá? you called. "¡estoy en la cocina! your mother replied. you sigh of relief, she had no idea you were gone. you smelled dinner being cooked.
"smells good, mamá, you smile, entering the kitchen. your mother smiles. "thank you, honey." however, you feel like you're being watched. not by miles, you would have known. but someone.
you ignore, for now, your mother had no clue you were gone, which relieved you, so she didn't worry of where you were, believing you were home. you go in your room, before being called for dinner. you weren't very hungry, but you couldn't let her suspect anything.
"eat up, hija, your mother said. "you must be hungry. i'm sorry for working late, i just..." "mom, i know, you assure her. "you have to support us both."
she smiled. you were fine with the fact she worked late. as a kid you were bothered by the fact she worked late. but back then you didn't fully understand. now you do. hence why you weren't upset.
you surprisingly finish, heading off for bed early. since you were exhausted. you plop down on your bed. you hoped, your boyfriend in the other dimension wouldn't come and find you. you really hoped so.
you closed your eyes, not even bothering to change, you were so exhausted. you soon fell asleep. you jumped when you hear your mother yell in the morning. you slept in, oh god. you checked your phone.
friday.
you forgot you needed to go back in your dorm. your roomie would be so worried, or, well, authorities. quickly, you rush out the door, going in your dorm, changing, before heading in class, in the span of limited time.
"miss (l/n), your teacher said. "i'm so sorry, ma'am, you apologize, sitting down. you fix your uniform, since you were rushed when you changed. taylor chuckled. "you forgot to go back? "mhm, don't laugh! you insist. she smiled."i won't, i promise. well, in your face."
you roll your eyes, making your friend softly chuckle. you focus on your class, you hoped your mom wouldn't murder you later. she already seemed pissed with her sleeping over when she couldn't. she only visited every day after school. only ever sleeping over on weekends.
you mentally scold yourself for being so stupid. however, your grades were still good. so, no worries right?
your life was normal, no more disruptions.
right?
well, your life would become more, chaotic, with time.
you just had no idea
