I sit on the floor of the old Brooklyn gym I first met Steve at. After NewYork we lived here for a little bit before actually getting an apartment. My hand moves on the old punching bag that was now on the ground.

Tears well up in my eyes but I refuse to let them fall. I'm not weak, I am not some girl who needs saving. I let out a loud angry scream and make the punching bag fly into the wall in front of me.

"I knew you would be here kid." A of so familiar voice states.

"Go away Stark." I mumble hugging my knees to my chest. Tony sighs and sits next to me.

"Let me guess. Spidey called you, and said I ran away." I spit out to Tony.

"No. He told me the truth. He told me what he said to you. Letta, Steve left you behind because he didn't want you to live your life on the run. He didn't want to put your life in risk." Tony says pulling me into a side hug.

"He left. He promised me Tony. He promised just like my dad did. He promised he would never leave me but they both did. Everyone leaves. And now I'm all alone." I let out a sob and let the tears fall.

"No, you're not alone. You have me. I'm not leaving, you know that." Tony whispers holding me tighter. My mind wonders and I stop crying as a vision flashes through my mind.

"Peter!" I yell staring at him falling onto the ground. I watch as concrete slams down onto his body. My heart stops beating as I wait for him to magically get up. To get out from under the concrete. No no this was not supposed to happen! I let out a heart wrenching scream as I fall to my knees.

"Letta!" Tony yells. My eyes flicker around the room and I stand up quickly. I didn't even realize that I am still crying and that my heart hurts.

"What did you see?" My head shakes and I shutter at the vision I just had. It can't be real, Peters not stupid enough to get into that type of situation.

"I just... I don't really know. It's late and May might worry." I say changing the conversation standing up. Tony stands up as well and pulls me into a light hug as we walk down to the limo.

In wood shop I ignored Peter the whole class. Actually I have been ignoring him since I got home last night.

"Lett's I'm sorry." Peter mumbles to me as he works on cutting wood. I ignore him and continue working on my little bird house.

Through out the class I kept on glancing over at Ned and Peter as they messed with a purple glowy thing.

I've never seen that before in my life, where did he get it? Once class was over I walked with Ned and Peter to our next class. Ned and I were trying to come up with a new name for the glowy thing before Peter drags us behind a wall.

"What the hell." I ask but Peter shushes me. He glances over and his face becomes pale.

"One of those guys tried to kill me last night." Peter whispers to Ned and I causing my green eyes to widen in shock. I guess he is that stupid.

"What?" I whisper yell at Peter. He shushes me again and we end up sneaking out of the school for the rest of the day too creeped out.

"You're an idiot! You're trying to get yourself killed? Why didn't you call Tony!" I yell at Peter as we walk home. He shrugs his shoulders and I let out an annoyed groan.

"I really am sorry." Peter whispers getting my attention.

"I'm sorry too." I say back giving him a light smile. Peter smiles back and wraps an arm around my shoulders and pulls me to his side, both of us walking home like this.
