"Can I come pick you up?" Peter asked.

We never talked by text, always calls. Neither of us seemed to want to miss hearing the other talk. And I was always glad to hear his voice cause it meant it was actually him, not someone using his phone to text and trick me. And besides, with him being SpiderMan again, it made me so sick when I called and he didn't pick up, and responded with a text.

So I made him call me.

He got his suit back two days after he turned the new one down. I had hated Tony again for it, killing poor Mental Tony again.

And again.

And now Peter was out stopping bank robberies and damsels in distress. Tony always wonders why he doesn't stop by the compound.

I told him it's cause, one, Peter can't drive, two, Peter doesn't want to be around me.

Well, I thought he couldn't drive. "What do you mean come pick me up?"

"Oh...uh...Mr. Stark gave me a car? I can drive?" He said sheepishly.

It wasn't a shock; Tony gave me a car too. I got an Aston Martin, cause I'm a bit James Bond obsessed and Tony can afford it. "What kind of car do you have?"

Peter was silent a moment. "Hum......an Audi. Stark gave it to me?"

I choked on my water. "Holy shit! Hell yeah you can pick me up!"

I could hear Peter sighing with relief. "Oh wait, this is only because of the car, isn't it?"

I laughed. It felt good to laugh. "Yes Peter, I don't miss you at all. I miss your car, which I've never seen,  and I don't need to talk to you at all."

"I'm glad you're a sarcastic little bugger," Peter mumbled.

"No, you're right. Your lucky Tony got you that instead of the most expensive car out there, cause he totally would."

Peter laughed. I loved that sound. "So I'll see you around six tomorrow morning?"

I sighed in relief. "Yeah. See you then Peter."
