A tear fell down Mj's face as she held back a sob. She pulled the phone away from her ear for a moment to let the sob escape her mouth, then put it back up to her ear and took a small breath. "Yeah Mom, " she lied, "I'm alright. It was just a small accident. The car just scraped against us, " she closed her eyes letting another tear fall from her eyes. Her mom went on a little while before the phone call finally came to a close. "Alright Mom, I'll see you in a week. I love you too. Bye." She glanced at the phone to make sure her mom had hung up before throwing it to the dirt and letting out another sob. She took in a shaky breath and began to wipe away the leftover tears as she heard the bell ring. But she'd would wipe away her tears and a new set would come, making her frustrated. "Fork it. I'm not going to class, " she whispered to herself. She got up from the bench and walked, and walked, and walked, and walked until she found herself standing in front of an ice cream shop. "Must be destiny, " she thought jokingly to herself. She ordered a two-scoop chocolate ice cream cone, but as she reached for her wallet a hand stopped her. "I'll get it." Mj rolled her eyes. "So you're following me now, Stalker?" "Nope. Just wanted ice cream, " Peter said as he ordered a two-scoop vanilla ice cream cone. "After all, ice cream is the solver of all problems." "Facts, " Mj agreed and Peter smiled, but it slowly disappeared and was replaced with a concerned look instead. "Are you alright?" "Yeah, fine, " she lied. Peter knew she was lying, but he didn't want to be intrusive so he ignored it. "My parents are coming back in a week, " Mj broke the silence. "That's good." "Is it?" Mj asked. Peter turned and looked at her. "What do you mean?" "I don't want them to get in this whole mess." Peter sighed. "He's not gonna hurt anyone anymore. I'll make sure of it, " Peter said, his face dropping slightly, but he soon replaced it with a smile. "Come on, " Peter said as he grabbed Mj by the arm. "Where are you taking me Loser?" Mj asked, slightly taken aback by the sudden action. "Just trust me." Peter lead her into a deserted alley and politely asked, with a little pink in his cheeks, " Can I carry you?" Mj smirked. "Sure, Prince Charming, " she answered and watched with pleasure as Peter's face flushed a darker shade, but nevertheless he grabbed her by the waist and in a split second they were 70 feet in the air. Mj's heart skipped a beat. It felt like forever since she had been in the air with him ever since the accident.
Peter glanced at Mj and smiled when he saw she was too.
Mj had lost track of time and so had Peter, both not knowing how long they had been gone but both not caring. Finally, Peter landed at the top of a high cliff that overlooked the city. Mj took a second to catch her breath, but it was immediately taken away again when she saw the sight before her. "It's beautiful, " she whispered. She sat down at the edge, letting her feet dangle and Peter joined her. There was a considerate change in the weather at the top of the city and Peter took notice of Mj's chattering teeth. "Here, " Peter said, handing her his jacket. "But-" "It's fine, " Peter cut her off. "I can't get a cold." "Of course you can't," Mj joked with a hint of jealousy in her voice. Peter smiled and laid back to watch the sunset and Mj followed suit.
At some point, Peter and Mj must have fallen asleep because when Peter woke up the sky was scattered with weak stars, dimmed by the lights of the city. Peter glanced at his phone. It was 11:00 p.m. and there were 12 text messages from May and 4 missed calls, two from Mr. Stark and two from May. Peter immediately called May back. The second the ringtone started May had picked up. "Where the heck are you?! I've been home for hours, I texted, I called, I've been waiting for you, I even called Stark!" "I know, I know. I'm sorry May. I just"- "Peter this has to stop, " May interrupted. "I know, May I'm sorry. I just wanted to do something for Mj and I lost track of time." "You're with Mj?" May questioned. "Yeah, I- uh took her to the hill above the city." May's attitude immediately changed. "Wow. How romantic. Did you kiss her yet?" Peter's face turned a deep red. "No, May it's not like that, " Peter sighed. "Phh. Sure it isn't, but whatever. Don't tell your amazing Aunt about your girlfriend." Peter rolled his eyes. "I'm serious May. We're just friends. She doesn't like me." "Oh? But you like her?" "We'll be back by 12:00, love you May, bye!" Peter quickly said and finished the phone call while rolling his eyes. Peter looked back to make sure Mj was still asleep and thankfully she was. Peter sat next to her and looked up at the stars. There were thousands of them staring back at him and in the moment he couldn't help but feel he had everything life had to offer.
When Mj woke up they left almost immediately, trying to keep Peter's promise to be home by midnight.
"Well, here we are, " Peter said as he landed outside of Mj's house. "Thanks, " Mj said. "No problem. Goodnight." "Goodnight Loser, " she said before kissing him on the cheek and going inside, leaving an astonished and frozen Peter Parker.
