"Aaahhh!" I screamed as Peter jumped off the roof.

"I thought you could handle this?" Peter asked laughing. Peter shot his arm out, shooting a web out at the top of the building.

"I said I could handle the hights!" I yelled wrapping my arms tighter around his neck as we descended down the side of the building.

"You can let go now," I looked down and saw Peter's feet were touching the ground, mine however were wrapped around his thigh.

"Sorry," I set myself down on shakey legs.

"It's fine," Peter's hand rested on my arm to steady me.

"June!" Steve sprinted over to us.

I'm gonna get grounded.

"Dad I'm sor-"

"Are you alright? Did you get hurt?" Steve pulled me into a hug. He suddenly pushed me away, "You could have died! What were you thinking?"

"It...was...fun?" Steve have me a stern look, "Dad look, it was fun and I was talking with Peter. Nothing went wrong."

"You call what you did talking?"

"Oh my god Mom!" My eyes widened at what I had said.

"Di-did you just call me m-mom?"

"We-well my mom used to talk like you do. Not that I kissed a guy before the age of ten or anything, but she used to be all caring and then yell at me for doing the stupid thing I did."

"Oh."

Bucky walked out of the restaurant, "Hey Steve, where's-oh."

He stopped talking when he noticed the tension between us. He walked up behind Steve and put a hand on his arm.

"Come on Steve, let's go."

"But June-"

"Nope. We're gonna give them some privacy. She'll find her way home, she's a smart girl," Bucky turned Steve around and dragged him to the car, but not before winking at me and Peter.

I giggled, "Well, what should we do now? They're not expecting me to come home right away."

"We could go to my apartment. If you want," Peter said shuffling his feet.

"Sure," Peter wrapped his arm around my waist as I wrapped my arms around his neck, and we swung away.

************

"That was just as terrifying as before," I said as Peter placed me down on his fire escape.

He laughed, "You'll get used to it."

He pushed his window up and let me in first.

"Are you saying that you'd like to swing around town with me more?"

"Maybe," Peter said pulling off his mask.

I wrapped my arms around his neck, "I'd like to accept that offer."

I gave Peter a quick kiss on his jaw, before I accidentally pressed the button on his suit that makes his suit come off.

"Oh gosh! Sorry," I covered my eyes and turned around.

"I'm just gonna change," Peter said his voice squeaking. 

"I'm dressed," I opened my eyes and Peter was standing in front of me in a grey sweater and jeans.

"Hey Peter, I know this is kind of an awkward conversation to have, but what are we?"

Peter sat down on his bed, "Do you wanna be a couple? Or do you wanna wait a while longer?"

I sat down beside him, "It would be nice to be a couple, but it would smart to take it slow..."

"Yeah," Peter looked down at his lap.

I scooted closer to Peter, "Maybe we don't have to take it slow."

I cupped one hand to the side of Peter's face and leaned in to kiss him. Our lips touched, but it was different then last time. The kiss wasn't short and gentle, it was long and passionate.

I moved my hand off of Peter's face, into his hair. Peter pulled away breathing heavily, "I think my aunt is-"

"Hey Peter? What the fu-"
