A/N: Only Harley & Ned know that Peter is Spiderman, well other than the heroes of course

Next weeks Sunday, 6pm

Peter has been a lot happier because Mj comes over daily now, she says she doesnt trust Peter to be alone right now but Peter likes to believe it's something else.

"Seriously Mj", Peter says. "Why do you come over here everyday just to help me, I'm not worth it". Mj rolls her eyes.

"Because you are one of my few friends & I care about you", Mj said laying on the couch. Peter was laying on the other couch looking slip at the ceiling, as was Mj.

Peter slightly moves his head to the direction of Mj, just enough to see part of her face but still look as if he was staring at the ceiling as well. He continued to watch, he tried but his eyes couldn't leave the view. For some in known reason, Mj shot her head in Peter's direction.

"What", Mj asks? Peter was confused, until he realized this head was completely facing her.

"Uh... nothing, my head was just in the clouds", Peter lied. "You look nice", Peter spat out without thinking, he closed his eyes tightly expecting an insult in return.

"You look nice too", Mj said. Peter opened his eyes in surprise. "Oh shit, it's almost 7. I have to go but I'll be back tomorrow". Mj grabbed her bag & sprung out the door.

Peter walked to the window & watched Mj walk out of the building & continued to watch her until she was safely at her build (it was only a block down from his).

"Stalker much", May broke the silence & shutting the door. It startled Peter.

"What. N-no. What are you-? No", Peter shudders out. May put a cocky smile on her face.

"It's okay", May said putting her arm around Peter. "You like her, dont you"? Peter froze & his face reddened.

"What?! No, she's just a friend", Peter laughed. The cocky smile grew on May's face once more. Peter saw.

May walked to the kitchen & started to make dinner.

Peter was alone with his own thoughts again. He sat in his room, alone. The silence deafening & the shallow light breaking through his window was blinding. The room was as dark as the nights, Tony, Natasha, Ben, & his parents. The tears one by one rolled down his face as he couldn't stop thinking of them. The tears were so bad he couldn't tell anyone had entered his room, he just felt 2 arms land around him & May's soft voice telling him, "It's gonna be okay".

The rest of the night was slow, dinner was awkwardly quiet, & sleep was impossible. Peter lay in his bed & read the alarm clock, 1:27.

Eventually sleep pulled him in & he got about 3 hours of sleep.

Monday...

Peter's alarm clock blared in his ear at 6am. He got up, showered, & dressed & met May in the living room at 7am.

"I'm gonna be gone until 4 today, so if you get hungry there is $50 on the counter for food", May said grabbing her purse & heading to the door.

"Uh... I'm actually going to school today", Peter said. May turned around in shock. "So can I get a ride"?

May threw him his backpack & ushered him into the car. She drove to the school & dropped Peter off, then drove to her workplace.

"Peter you actually came to school today", Ned said running up to him & hugging him. Harley soon followed.

"Yeah", Peter hugged Harley & looked for Mj. "May made me come to school today", Peter lied. "Where is Mj"?

"Probably with Brad", Harley said rolling his eyes. Peter slightly got upset but didnt show it.

They walked to 1st hour, no sign of Mj but they didnt have that class together. They didnt see her until 5th period.

"Hey losers", Peter & Ned heard behind them as they were walking to class. "I didnt expect you to be back today", Mj said walking past them to their table.

"Yeah, May made me come here today. I'm not to happy about it", Peter said.

*Flash's Penis Parker senses tingled*

Flash walked into the room & made dead eye contact with Peter. "Penis is back everybody", Flash yelled. "What's up, I thought you were dead".

"Flash, just-", Mj started.

"Shut up & my name is Peter", Peter said. Flash looked back at Peter.

"I'm sorry Parker. I'll try to get it right next time", Flash said with sarcasm pouring from his mouth. He turned around just as class was to begin.

Peter's day was long, hard, & annoying. The forever classes bored him, the questions he didnt know confused him, & the awkward "Welcome back" from everyone was starting to annoy him. But he got through the day without any Flash troubles.

Mj walked back to Peter's house with him. "How was your day", Peter asked? A minute of awkward silence, as Peter went to repeat his question Mj put her phone down.

"Uh... it was good I guess", Mj said & her phone buzzed again. She read the text for a minute. "Oh right. How was your day"? Mj put her phone hin her pocket.

"Usual", Peter said. He heard her phone buzz again. "Who are you even texting anyway"?

"It's just Brad", Mj pulled out her phone & read the text aloud. "Do you want to get coffee some time?". Mj slightly smiled at the text.

"You should do it", Peter says. Regretting every single word he had said. "Brad seems like your type".

Mj didnt say or text Brad anything, she just shut off her phone & continued walking down the busy sidewalk.

Once they got to his apartment they just sat down & talked.

"Did you hear about the disappearance of Spiderman", Mj asks? Peter was shocked, she brought up Spiderman by herself, she was talking about Spiderman, well Peter on her own. "Nobody really knows why, but he just stopped".

"Maybe he lost all reason to be Spiderman", Peter says. "As if he lost what he wanted to protect most". Peter started tearing up.

Mj saw & quickly jumped over to his couch trying to comfort him. "Peter, it's okay", Mj said in a soothing voice. She wrapped her arms around him, rubbing his arm until his sobs ceased & tears faded.

A/N: I'm sorry that time moves so quickly through these 1st two parts but the scenes will start to narrow down & focus on one day
