✮ Spider-Man Astro Boy x Black Cat Reader // Crushing On The Good Guy

Requested by ; @PaisleyCraft

Astro had a crush. On two people actually. As Toby, his secret identity, he loved a young women named (Y/N), but as Spider Boy, he loved Black Cat. He much more enjoyed being near (Y/N) though, she was kind, playful and all and all just a pretty chill person. Black Cat didn't really have a personality, she may have been beautiful and very talented, but she was never showed her true self, yet, Astro was drawn to her.

Astro was terrible keeping his love for you on the down low. When he was up and out as Spider Boy and there was no crime, he'd often find himself following you, seeing how you were and making sure no harm came to you. He'd also change out of his costume in alley ways and 'accidentally' bump into you in the street. He did things like this to get closer to you, get to know you better and mostly, just look at you. Black Cat on the other hand, was admirable. What she did made Astro feel terrible at his job. He couldn't help but feel like that her spins and flips and all the amazing things she could do, made her better than he could ever be.

You brushed down your silver hair and looked closer to the mirror, placing on your black mask. "I really need to dye my hair again.." You sighed, looking at the roots of your hair that showed your natural (H/C) hair. "Oh well. The show must go on." You sighed, pulling up your skin tight black suit.

You had a bit of trouble zipping up the front that was supposed to go up over your chest. "Oh God.." you mumbled laughing nervously. You squished the fabric together and managed to zip it up over your chest. You sighed, maybe it was time to get another suit. You huffed and stood up, shaking your head. "Time to get my months rent!" You grinned, opening the window and grabbed onto the outside wall of your apartment with your sharp fake claws, you climbed up the side of your building until you reached the top. You breathed in the fresh air of the gritty city. You took one more glance at the glimmering lights of the buildings and then jumped off the building. You opened your arms and pulled out your grappling hook, shooting it to a nearby tower, you swung around for a small bit before reaching your destination. The bank was in sight so you slowed down. Once you had come to a stop, you unhooked your grappling hook and let yourself fall to the ground, making sure to do a roll so the impact wouldn't ruin your knees. You stood up and brushed yourself off. "Not bad for a cat." You smiled happily at your own cool superhero landing.

"Planning on stealing from the bank?" You heard a voice from behind you. Of course it was him, he was always onto you, always one step ahead.

"I'm a damn good thief." You smiled, turning around the slightest to glance at your enemy. You continued on walking close to the entrance of the bank.

"You wont get away with this." He stepped forward as you did.

"What was your superhero name again? You've got so many." You sighed, turning around, there was no point robbing the bank now, he would stop you without a second thought.

"Spider Boy." He crossed his arms.

"That's right! The robot who was genetically mutated with a spider that gave his systems.. unnatural enhancements." You grinned, leaning on the pedestal of the white coloured bank. "But if we are truly going to get to know each other, I want to know the superhero before Spider Boy."

"There's no time for heroic backstories." He shook his head.

"Oh come on! If we are going to make this relationship work, you need tell me who you were!" You leaned on your side. "Oh wait, I remember! It's a little fuzzy, but weren't you called 'Astro Boy'?"

"And you're Black Cat. The crazed villain who steals whatever she wants without a second thought. No one knows who you are, or who you work for. All they know is that you're dangerous." Astro stepped forward once again, his mask hiding his small blush.
