Along Came A Spidey

CHAPTER 4

I scrambled off the bed. Peter did too and hit his head on the upper bunk. He then proceeded to faceplant but got up exceptionally fast. Curious...very curious.

"That's not what it looked like!" I yelled at the same time as Peter shouting "Don't you knock?!"

May just looked at us with an amused look.

"As much as I think you two are adorable, I don't want any great nieces or nephews. 15 is too young, really. And I'm hardly the age of a grandmother." She said matter of factly, but with her lips turning up.

I turned scarlet and my bed partner started and continued to bang his head on the door.

"We weren't doing anything of that sort. I thought something was there on my neck and Peter was checking. That's all. No baby making or before baby making." I said quickly.

"Alright, kids. I don't wanna annoy you. Sanya, staying for dinner?"

"If it's not an imposition?"

"Never. You're my nephew's future baby mama." She laughed and pushed her spectacles back on her nose.

"Aunt May, OUT! Sanya's staying, I'm coming. Just leave." He said, almost on his knees.

"You're so touchy. I was just kidding."
She left.

"That was..." He searched for an appropriate word.

"Humorous for her, mortifying for us."

"Right you are."

"I'm always right."

"I'd contradict you but I'm really hungry." He rubbed his stomach.

"To the food!"

New Year's Eve~

"Jared? Jared's your date? You don't even like the poor kid." I scolded Betty.

"She just brought him to make Ned jealous." MJ gave her honest opinion as she put on her grey-brown top and skirt combo.

"Just like Ned invited you." I slyly said.

"I don't like Ned. I really don't. And Ned doesn't like me." She turned away from us.

MJ and I shared a look. 'Let them keep being idiots.'

"Let's just go."

Michelle's hair was in her usual frizzy ponytail, Betty's was in a complicated updo and mine was open.

We stepped onto the roof which looked beautiful. Twinkling lights, lanterns. An opaque purple curtain separted the kids and adults. One part was being particularly noisy.

Ned, Peter and Jared stopped talking to each other.

"Isn't anyone else coming?"

"Nah. All gone somewhere. It's just us but the adults are plenty in number."

"No wonder they're so loud." I thought aloud.

Michelle and Ned started taking quietly but both looked bored.
Betty and Jared were talking too but mostly, he was staring at her.

"We're the fifth and sixth wheels." Peter muttered.

"We're together, though." I raised my glass of apple cider to his.

"And that's what matters." He was wearing a dressy looking dark green shirt and black pants.

"Did you match with me on purpose?"

Peter's POV~

"No. May got me this." God, I was barely thinking straight. She looked so beautiful. Thank God that I was going to be the one to kiss her tonight. Good thing I told all the other guys not to come. I'd probably web up everyone one who would even look at her the wrong way. Relax, Peter. Don't be awkward and nervous. Oh, like thinking that would help.

"She must've done it on purpose." I love it when she rolls her eyes. Yes. I, Peter Parker AKA Spider-Man am falling for my neighbour, Sanya Reza. I am completely over Liz. She was just a crush. An infatuation, really.

"You..uh, you...look really amazing tonight." She furrowed her brows at my words."Not that you don't always look beautiful...you do...I'm an idiot."

She giggled.
"I was frowning in surprise. But you're an idiot who's cute when he's nervous." She leaned in and kissed my cheek. Spider senses and normal senses are going out of wack.

Sanya's POV~

His red face was adorable to see.
We continued talking the whole night about pretty much everything.

Suddenly I heard Aunt May's voice. "10 SECONDS TO MIDNIGHT. 10, 9.."

We all started counting.

8,7.
Michelle and Ned inched closer. Betty looked angrier than I'd ever seen her.

6,5.
Jared tried to move closer but in vain.

4,3.
Betty stalked off to Ned, pushed a surprised Michelle towards Jared and wrapped her hands around Ned's neck. Ned just stands still in shock.

2,1. "HAPPY NEW YEAR" echoes all over.
Betty and Ned kiss. Jared pecks MJ on the lips.
"I'll give you the money later." I sighed.

"How about instead of money, we deal in a kiss?"

I pretended to think. "That's better."

His hands snaked around my waist. Mine slid around his neck. I looked in his chocolate eyes as he looked in mine. He was so amazing.

He leaned down and kissed me.

That's all for today. Thanks for reading.
