Spider-Man/Peter Parker One-Shots

Imagine #1

Imagine: Peter gets scared by a spider and reveals he's afraid of the arachnid.

A screech came from a neighboring room and you jumped in surprise. Without a moment's hesitation, you sprinted to it and threw open the door, stepping inside with a panicked expression. Your boyfriend, Peter, stood on another side of the room, and just as you came inside, he shot a web by your feet. You nearly fell backwards back into the room you were just in.

"What's going on?" You asked quickly, stepping around the room. Peter was breathing heavily as his shaking finger pointed at the web on the floor. You could just make out a black thing underneath it, but any guess as to what it was escaped you. "What is it?" You reached towards it.

"Don't touch it!" He shouted, startling you.

"Why?"

"It's a..." He swallowed and looked away. "It's a spider."

"Wait wait wait, you're scared of spiders?" You put your hands on your hips. He nodded, still avoiding looking at you, and you snickered. "Spider-man, afraid of spiders! How much do you think I could get for that fact? Someone's willing to pay for that information, right, like the press?"

Peter groaned and ran a hand through his hair. He was over here, being traumatized by the 8-legged creature, while you were thinking up how to get cash. He felt your sympathy, it was just radiating off of you.

"That's so ironic," you kept on with your rant, smiling as you crossed your arms and stared at the ceiling. "That must've sucked when you got bitten by one of those furry things. But after you became awesome I'd think you'd like spiders."

Peter's eyes focused on something inching its way towards you on the floor, and he tried desperately to get your attention as it got closer, and closer, and closer. He watched in horror as it reached one of its legs towards your foot, but before it could even touch you, he had shot a web at you and yanked you into his arms.

You yelped in surprise before arching an eyebrow at him. "What was that for?"

"Spider," he pointed at the hairy creature. You looked over to see it was sitting where you were once standing and your eyes widened to the size of goose eggs.

"Thank you," you buried your head in his shoulder, hugging him tightly, and he wrapped his arms protectively around you. You wouldn't admit it, but you were afraid of spiders too.
