Peter's POV

After school, I ran in the dark corner of a street and put on my Spiderman suit as quickly as I could. I just heard that there was a robbery in a jewelry and I needed to catch the thief as soon as possible. When I arrived the cops already arrested the thief and that was a relief for me. however I was disappointed, I wished I've could arrested him by myself to prove to Mister Stark that I can be trusted. I sighed and I shot a web to a high building to have a good look of the city. I observed the city and nothing really interesting happened.

I stayed in my spidey suit until 11 pm hoping that something would happen. But nothing. I just helped a grand ma to get back her cat in a tree, a little crying girl who had lost her teddy bear and I prevented a teen to rob the wallet of a woman. I did my usual report to Happy and I decided to go back home. That was just another boring day. I mean I was happy to help people in their daily life, I loved the nickname that the social medias found me, the friendly neighborhood Spiderman. Nevertheless I wanted to impress the Avengers and Mister Stark so much. I fought with them in Berlin, I did my proofs but they still did not trust me enough to help them. that was so unfair! So I needed to save the day to show them that I was as valuable as them. when I returned to the street where I left my backpack, I looked everywhere to find it. but I didn't, someone stole it from me. FML. I sighed and went back home as silently as possible. Once I was in my bedroom quickly changed myself into graphic T shirt with jeans. I was starving thus I went to the kitchen where I managed to cook pasta. I saw May watching TV and I joined her. she asked me how was my day and I answered that it was pretty boring. She smiled and I told her that I needed a new backpack. She opened her eyes widely complained that it was my 5th this month. It couldn't tell her the truth so I just shrugged and promised that I would be careful next time.

The following days were monotonous: I woke up, went to school, helped people and went back to sleep. Nothing special, nothing exciting. I began to lost hope. I was outside walking through the city wishing to stop a potential crime. Nonetheless it was another calm night and there was no crime. I couldn't complain about it because it was nice to know that the Queens wasn't as infamous as its reputation but I felt completely useless. I was so desperate that I walked to the calmest part of the city where the crime rate was close to zero. As I expected there was nothing suspicious. I reach the end of the district where there were only few houses which were very far from each other.

I decided to go back home when I heard a high-pitched scream. I thought that my imagination was playing tricks with my mind since I wanted something to happen so bad. But I heard it again, it was louder. I tried to find where it came from. I eventually spotted a small house with an opened window. I silently ran to it and another scream escaped from the house. It sounded terrifying like someone was tortured and murdered mercifully. That was my chance to catch a murder and prove to everyone that I was a true superhero. I entered in the house thanks to the opened window without a noise. The screams were louder and louder each time and I wondered what type of monster was torturing an innocent soul like that. Since we were in a prospered area I guessed they did it for money. I carefully left the room where I were to sneak into other rooms and find where the scene crime took place. I prudently moved to the bedroom, the living room but that wasn't there. I eventually reached the bathroom. This room was the source of the cries and the door was partially opened. I only saw a girl about my age. She seemed to be the murdered and that chocked me. I decided to enter into the bathroom soundlessly to be sure.

When I saw the all scene in the bathroom I felt ridiculous. That wasn't my lucky day at all. I resolved to leave the room. As I took a step back I hit laundry basket which fell on the floor with a loud bang. The girl turned to face me, she was about to scream. When she noticed that I was Spiderman she froze.

_ Can you explain to me why you sneak into my house at 10 pm? Aren't you supposed to help people and not scare them and enter in their house like a stalker?! She asked in an angry tone that she tried to contain.

_ I... I...

I didn't know what to say, the whole situation was so absurd. I wanted to leave the place right now.

_ You what? Her tone was even harsher since I still didn't answer. She looked very upset.

_ I heard noises from outside. She raised an eyebrow. And that was actually very high-pitched screams like someone who is painfully dying. So I decided to enter to check that everything was alright.

When those words left my mouth she burst into laughter. Her eyes were shining and I noticed that she was very cute. I was glad to wear a mask to hide my redness.

_ I know that sounds totally ludicrous since you're just giving a bath to your cat but I swear he screams like his life was in danger. I whispered to fully explain myself hoping that all the story didn't seem to ridiculous.

She was still laughing. When she caught her breath she said in a nice tone:

_ That's kind of you to worry about those screams but as you see it just Amaretto who doesn't like to take his bath. Sorry I made you lost your time.

_ No no it's nothing. Plus the night was rather calm and I was pretty bored. I reassured her. she nodded and smiled widely.

_ Since I guess that you have nothing better to do, don't you want to help to wash him. he is infernal and that's hard to wash him alone. And by the way I'm Y/N.

By the way I wish to know if you want me to write about Tom's character in the lost city of Z or wolf hall? And don t forget that I m open to your requests!
