summary: You want to move abroad, it has always been your dream. You want to live your life and get out there, but when you tell Peter the exciting news, he isn't too excited about it.
note: I made the country where the reader wants to go to The Netherlands, because I am from there and also tom... holland. such a pun, clap clap clap.
Also note for the anon who requested: You did not address if the reader and Peter were in a relationship. I thought about it and decided for them to be.
Peter and the reader are not in school anymore. You have a place yourself, Peter basically lives there. But he still lives with aunt May, because he loves her so much. You should not focus on the age and the avenger team so much, it's not all worked out.

You had finally done it. You had the right amount of money, confidence and excitement. You had found a beautiful apartment in the middle of Amsterdam. Your parents loved the idea of you living in Europe. You had never really liked living in Queens and all they wanted was for you to be happy. And they wouldn't mind going to Amsterdam to visit you.

The only thing left to do was telling your boyfriend, Peter. You had two offers for him. He could either come with you or he could come visit. Your plan was to move back to New York after one or two years. You loved Peter so much, you would never mind to have a long distance relationship with him.

You were meeting Peter at a cafe for lunch. You spotted him somewhere in the back and went to sit with him. 'Hi (Y/n)' He greeted you with a loving smile. He stood up before you could sit down to give you a kiss on your cheek. 'I already ordered your favorite'. You both sat down as you thanked him.

Your food arrived and now it was time to tell him. 'Hey, I need to tell you something'. 'Go ahead, love' He looked up at you. 'I want to move, well I am moving'. The thought of moving to Europe brightened up your face. 'Great! Where are you moving in Queens?' He seemed excited, you both hated your current apartment. 'Oh- no-' you nervously laughed. 'I- I am moving out of Queens'. His smiling face was replaced by him just making an 'o' with his mouth. 'Well, uh where are you moving then? I mean as long as it's not all the way across the country it would be fine right, We'll be fine' He reached out for your hand. 'I'm moving to Europe, to Amsterdam' You bit your lip. If he minded the other side of the country this was not going to be good.

He almost choked on his food. 'I'm sorry?' He took a sip of his drink to prevent him form actually choking. 'I really want to do this. And if you want we could even do this together, Peter' You squeezed his hand. 'I-, (Y/n) I can't...' He sighed and rubbed his eyes. 'possibly move to Europe'. He shook his head with wide eyes and opened mouth. 'Why not? Are you scared? Imagine how great this can be for us?' Your eyes were still full of adoration and love. 'Because' He raised his voice and quickly toned it down. 'Because, everything I have lies in New York. My friends, my job, Aunt May. You! Your here in New York with me, in Queens. I beg you don't' Now he squeezed your hands. 'This has been my dream for so long, I love new things and I'm planning on moving back in one or two years anyway. We could do long distance, I believe we can do that! I just thought you would want to come with me' The disappointment in your voice was clear.

'Believe me, I wish I could. But. I. Can't' His voice was stern. Even tho tears were stinging his eyes.

'Why not?' You wanted a better reason.

He smashed some money down on the table and aggressively took your hand. You stood upas he dragged you after him.

Peter slammed the door of you apartment. 'Well? Why can't you come with me?' You folded your arms. 'I'm Spider-Man'.

'Oh so that's what this is all about, You're gonna bring out the old "I'm Spider-Man" quote. Because that rules your life' You loved that Peter could do what he loved, but he was so dramatic about it.

'I can't leave New York. What if Tony Stark needs me? What if anyone needs me. I am still your ol' friendly neighborhood Spider-Man. I am here to keep the streets of New York as safe as they can be. Not the streets of Amsterdam' He sighed. He wasn't gonna give up everything he had become. He wasn't gonna give you up.

'Superhero's take breaks. You have been doing this for a pretty long time now, Peter. It wouldn't hurt if you'd take a break, live your own life. You can always return. I know Tony will always keep open a place for you' You walked to him and stroked his cheek. His arms snaked around your waist.

'I just don't think you can handle this right now'

You pulled away from him. 'What's that supposed to mean?' The blood rushed to your face.

'You have a good job and it's been stressing you out lately, but it's an amazing job. I think you'll regret it if you leave. And I don't think you could handle long distance with that. I know I won't be able to do the whole long distance thing' He was trying to convince you to stay in a sneaky way. Of course he thought you could take on anything, god you could take on the world if you had to. He couldn't be away from you that long and wanted you to stay so bad.

'Thanks Peter, Thanks a lot' Tears rolled down your cheeks. 'No, (Y/n) I didn't mean it like that'. You walked away from him, but he twisted you around when he grabbed your arm. You flinched at his touch and released yourself from his grip. 'Well, it sure sounded like you did'. With that you ran from him and locked yourself in your bedroom. You collapsed in your bed and cried yourself to sleep.

Peter had called Ned, Michelle and May, but they did not pick up. He decided to stay and sleep on your couch where he, just like you, sobbed himself to sleep.

You woke up to the smell of breakfast. You walked out of your room to see Peter in the kitchen cooking you your favorite breakfast. 'Good morning, beautiful' He said when he was aware that you were there.

You sat down at the table. He came over to you with the food. 'Breakfast is served' he proudly said. 'Oh, so you think I can't even make my own breakfast? I see' You said with your nose in the air.

He kissed your cheek and sat down. He took your hand, in a strong grip so you couldn't escape.

'I think you should go to Europe'. His loving tone caught your attention. 'You do?' you turned to him. He kissed your hand. 'Yes. I thought about it and please forget everything I said. I was trying to manipulate you into staying, but I would have felt so guilty if you had stayed because of that. I am so sorry I can't come with you. I'll visit you as much as you want. I am pretty sure I can't go a week without you. So we'll have to figure it out, like we always do. I want you to be happy and hey, it's only for two years' He stood up from his chair and took you with him. His hand travelled around your waist and yours around his neck. 'I love you so much. You're such a powerful woman and you're gonna do great out there. I believe in you, I believe in us' He leaned down to kiss you. He was gonna get as much affection out of you as he could before you left.

'I love you, thank you' you smiled up at him. 'For you, always'.
