"plwase unlokc your window!! OMW"

"I told him not to text and swing." You mumbled to yourself.

You huffed, making your way to the window to save him the trouble and just lifted it wide open.

Peter flops in immediately, earning a yelp from you.

"Are you crazy?!" You held your hand to your chest.

"Heeeeelp." He groans. Peter tugs at his mask, rolling his head back for you to see.

He had a black eye. "Make sure when you fall, you don't land face first into a fire hydrant." He tries his best to pry his swollen eye open.

"Since when do you fall?" You shake your head. Not expecting an answer, you walk off to the kitchen and open the freezer, grabbing a bag of assorted frozen fruit.

You come back to Peter flipping through channels on your TV, slumped on the bed.

"Put this on your eye."

Peter gingerly takes the bag, holding it up to his bruise.

"Why are you getting hurt in the middle of the night?"

"Avengers make mistakes too." He grumbled.

"Peter. It's late." You sighed.

"I know I know but I needed your help specifically." He sits up mirroring the posture of someone who would hold a corporate meeting.

"Do my makeup please."

You stare at Peter expressionless.

"Like with the skin paint thing." He adds.

"For your black eye?"

"PLEEEAAASE! I can't have May see me with another black eye. She said if the kids keep picking on me she's gonna call the school."

You roll your eyes, motioning him to follow you to your makeup drawer.

"Concealer." You handed him the small bottle and heard him repeat after you.

"Concealer." He nods.

"How long will this last?" He twists it open.

"Stop, you're gonna dry it out. And not forever. So I'll let you borrow it to reapply in the morning."

"How do I do that?" He starts blinking rapidly the same time your finger pats into his under eye.

"No blinking! Just do what I'm doing here. See? You don't even need a sponge sometimes."

You try to ignore how close you were to him. Seeing Peter from this proximity was something you'd never think to do. You never noticed how many little freckles he had. They're so faint. He had a little stubble from running around all day and chapped lips. Your eyes follow the line of his bottom lip, like a crack in the pavement. You could feel his breathing hit your hand as you pat into his skin. As you look up from his lips, you find him staring at you back.

"Done." You reeled your hand back, clearing your throat.

Peter looks at himself through your small light up mirror. Seems simple enough.

"See? Good as new. Just a little swollen." You comb his curl away from his forehead so he could clearly see the coverage.

"You're the best." He stares at his reflection in awe.

"I know." You shrugged.

"Don't touch it or it'll come off." You grab a small pouch to put the concealer in.

"Here. Don't lose it. I splurged for this one." You hand him the pouch and he nods profusely.

"Guarding it with my life." He puts it in the small pocket of his backpack.

"Thank you." He smiles.

"No problem." You avoided his eyes, hopefully he didn't see the heat rising to your cheeks. "Don't keep May waiting."

Peter nods, giving an awkward wave. "Right. See ya."

Peter jumps out onto the fire escape. Quietly this time. Out of sight.

"See ya." You said quietly to yourself.

The next morning, you woke up to a series of messages from Peter.

"she didnt suspect a thing HAHAHA" 12:32 AM

"thank u again btw" 12:33 AM

"it hurts to blink." 12:34 AM

"ok goodnight ill let you know how it lasts thru the night." 12:34 AM

"hi it disappeared a little bit but im gonna add some more i hope that's ok" 9:12 AM

You bit your lip, your finger hovering over the facetime button. You click it without thinking too much of it, waiting for him to answer.

Peter comes into frame with a newly pale complexion. His entire face was covered in concealer.

"Hi." He grins at the camera, oblivious to how ghostly he looked. This would've scared you if he didn't answer the call in that ridiculous angle.

"Peter..." You sighed.

"What? Did I miss a spot?"

"...No. You can't possibly miss any more spots I don't think."

Peter frowns at the camera, he thought he did well.

"Too much?" He chuckled, embarrassed.

You roll your eyes.

"This stuff covers everything. I don't have freckles anymore." He runs away at his cheek, showing that it wasn't coming off.

"Did May see you yet today?" You sighed.

"No.. Should I take this off?"

Before you could answer, May quickly knocks on Peter's door, and doesn't wait to open the door.

"Hey, I'm thinking pizza for lunch-"

Peter turns to look at May and you could see her blurry face peek through behind Peter's shoulder on your screen. She widens her eyes and blinks a couple times.

"What... What is that?"

"Sunscreen." Peter blurts out.

"Y/N and I are going to the beach."

May knits her brows together, thinking if that's really believable or not.

"There's no beach near by."

Peter silently stares at his aunt.

"...I'm eating this pizza with or without you ." May shrugs. "Have fun at the... beach." She gives Peter a look and then closes the door.

Peter turns his attention back to his phone.

"The beach?" You squeaked out, attempting to stifle your laugh.

"I would hang up if I didn't need help taking this off." Peter says flatly.

You let out a groan. "Just get over here."
