Peter's POV

"When do you think I should ask her to be my girlfriend?" I asked Ned, who was sitting next to me, building a lego model with me on my bed, and he shrugged.

"Your choice, man. You should probably wait a little longer, I mean, that is if, you know, she doesn't seem like she's ready for a relationship yet." He did have a point, but the thing was, I'm bad at reading people's feelings, or more specifically, a girl's feelings.

"That's true. But I'm bad at reading a girl's feelings. How will I know?"

"You just...know. Now will you stop zoning out and fantasizing about MJ and actually build this with me? You'll have time to hang out with her later anyway." My cheeks flushed when I realized that I was barely building anything, and just kept on zoning out.

"I don't fantasize about MJ!"

"Okay, okay. Just a thought. Now will you actually help me?" I rolled my eyes and nodded, building the lego model with him.

~~~

"This is awesome!" Ned exclaimed, looking like a little boy who just got a new toy. We've been working on the Millenium Falcon lego model for nearly an hour, and when we finished it, we did our handshake.

"Yeah, it's really cool." I agreed, then suddenly my phone buzzed.

MJ: I'm coming over now, sorry I'm super late but my dad wanted to catch up with some things

I was about to make a quick reply, when Ned suddenly took my phone and read it, then he suddenly started typing something.

"Ned, don't!" I yelled, trying to take my phone back, but he used his free hand to push me away.

"Ned, I swear--"

"Chill, Peter. I just sent her a message saying 'Okay'. Nothing bad with that, right?" I glared at him and took my phone back, checking to see if he sent anything else. Luckily for me, I can trust my own best friend.

"Don't do that!" He laughed at me, so I threw an extra lego piece at him, which he easily dodged. I rolled my eyes, and decided to just watch Star Wars with him in peace.

"Hey, Ned. Hey, loser." MJ walked in the door a few minutes later, seeing Ned and I watching the first few minutes of the first episode of Star Wars.

"Why do you still keep calling me a loser?" I asked her, actually not annoyed by it, because it kinda feels nice that she can give me a nickname. Makes me feel kinda special, I guess.

"Cause I want to." She said, then she threw me a backpack. The one I left at her house last night.

"Thanks."

"Now let's keep this Star Wars marathon going."

~~~

When we reached the sixth episode of Star Wars, Ned decided to go home, since it was already 10 at night, and his mom gave him a rule where he should be back home before 11. I gave him a quick goodbye and waved, when I realized that MJ was being extremely silent. She was laying her head on my shoulder the last time she said something or moved, and when I looker at her, I realized she was sleeping. I tried shaking her awake gently, and she nuzzled her head in my shoulder.

"Nooo, Peter. Don't go." I chuckled slightly, realizing she was probably having a dream about me. She'd kill me if she found out what I was about to do, but my curiousity got the best of me.

"I have to go, MJ." I whispered in her ear, when she suddenly hugged me.

"Peteeeerrrr. I love youuuu." I widened my eyes and blushed a deep shade of red.

Holy shiz. Did I hear her correctly? No, right? But she did. She said those three simple words that meant a whole lot more. The words that...I didn't even know if I felt that way. A big part of me was telling me I did, but how would I know for sure?

Dimwit. Stop being denial and just admit it. You love her. L-O-V-E.

Uh...you know what? I gotta get MJ home first.

MJ's POV

I woke up when I felt a strong gush of wind pass through me. What the--

I looked around me, realizing that I was way above the city, and someone was holding onto me.

How the hell did I get here?

"Peter?" I whispered, and his masked face turned to look at me.

"You fell asleep at my house when we had our marathon, and since you wouldn't wake up earlier, I just decided to carry you home since it's late already." I nodded, looking around the city below us.

A few minutes later, we reached my house, and when we landed, he pulled his mask just above his mouth, and kissed me.

After the short kiss, he muttered something that I couldn't believe.

"I love you." And then he left me to fall deep into my thoughts.

A/N: My wifi kinda sucks right now, so sorry if there'll be days that there's no update, but just know that I write a chapter everyday, so please just bear with me. Thanks for reading!
