"are you afraid of heights, y/n?" peter asked as he held you over the bustling city. you were nestled into his chest as one of his arms wrapped comfortably around you and the other pulled and pushed you two from building to building.

you were the one who suggested going on a mission with him, and after hours of reasoning and a buying him a box of negotiation m&ms, he reluctantly agreed to let you go.

at first, you were a little reluctant about the whole "swinging around the city" thing. peter could feel your body tense up each time he came a little too close to hitting the ground or a sharp building, but when you felt his body close to yours and the wind sweep your face, you understood his love for it.

"no, i'm okay." you smiled, adjusting your eyes from the ground to him. you wish you could see his masked face look at you with his caramel eyes, but he had an identity to protect. thus, the mask.

"where are we going?" you asked as peter launched you two up again.

"there was a tip about a bank robbing, i'm just going to check it out." he said before landing on a rooftop, scuttling until you two found your footing.

"phew." you said, shaking your head with a smile. he laughed back.

"takes a while to get used to, i know. now," he said, removing himself from your grasp. "stay here. this could get dangerous, okay?"

"but peter..what about you?" you asked as he settled himself up on the edge, looking down at the bank across the street, which now had mysterious black vans parked outside.

"i'll be fine." he turned back towards you and gave an enthusiastic thumbs up. you laughed at his dorkyness.

"now, if anything happens, run. okay?" he ordered. you returned his thumbs up as a prick of worry etched into your mind.

"love you!" he called, swinging down onto the ground below. you ran to the edge of the building and watched as he climbed his way to the bank.

"love you too." you sighed, the worry inside you eating you alive as you watched peter save the city.

he had been going on more patrols than usual, and you started to get lonely and reluctant every time he slipped on the suit. but you didn't want your love to stop him from fighting crime or possibly saving a life, so that's why you came up with the bright idea of going with him. you two could still spend time together while he did his thing. and not to mention how much of a turn on it was to have him carry you around in his arms.

however, you couldn't help feeling a bit of worry as he threw himself into the danger.

across the street, you watch peters every move as he climbed into one of the banks windows. in fact, you could see everything, thanks to the big glass walls. inside, four men in black attire shuffled through the bank, and peters red suit stood out against the bleak building.

"careful.." you whispered as he approached the criminals. your heart beat sped up as you watched him speak to them, probably saying something snarky and quick witted.

suddenly, without warning, gunshots echoed through the scene. you jumped back as the glass in the bank shattered onto the sidewalk, and the sounds of more executing guns shook the street.
