In The State Of Oblivion| Scarlet Witch X Spiderman

Chapter 9

Peter's POV

I swung away from Tony's tower, confused. Being a teenager is confusing, one minute I'm attempting to save the day. The next minute (or should I say hours), I felt something that I haven't felt about. I always thought girls were just human, they can pretty to look at and interesting to talk to just like any other person you walk pass on the street but I haven't felt like this, I thought I felt like this around Liz. Liking someone and always wanting to be around them and just talking, when all I did was admiring her from a far but it's different with Wanda. It feels exciting. A sense of adrenaline. I'm sure this is normal to feel about a friend. I'm not sure if that's a label to feel about someone you're this close to.

I arrived to where I'm headed at, I pulled up to make my entrance by the window. Then closing it, I quickly sat down on my chair, going straight for my computer. Searching up locations from where those guys who are selling weapons are at.

"Hey Karen", I said to the A.I that's activated in my mask.

"Hello Peter, How may I help you?", she replied.

"Could you replay back to the place where the van was", I asked her. She showed me what I expected to see. A road with a red coloured van, located far away from Queens. Although while scanning the video carefully, I spotted one familiar face. He looked awfully familiar, someone that I have seen. The memory i could recall was parent teacher meetings.

"May, I don't see the point in you going to these meetings. I haven't done anything wrong", I whined as we both headed our way to my classroom.

"Well that's not what I heard from Ms. Porter", she replied. I groaned as I started to gravitate my attention towards Liz. Her beauty captured me as she was stroding confidently with her Father, I would assume most of her genes are passed by her mother.

And it clicked. Maybe that flying man, or what those guys called. The Vulture, might've been Liz's dad. I felt guilty, I didn't wanna hurt Liz by doing this if my theory was correct, it would lower my chance of being with someone I genuinely like. Or that's what I think, I felt unsure sometimes.

My hand felt the top part of my mask as I slid it off of my head as I instinctively reach for my phone and contact the first person I could think of. Her.

Peter: Hey Wanda... could you help me with something tomorrow.

I waited for her reply but my phone started to vibrate.

Wanda: do I have to go out for this?

Peter: Yeah, You did say you could try to sneak out.

Wanda: fine, where do we meet?

Peter: uhhh Gemini street at Willson's building.

Wanda: you live in queens?

Peter: yep, surprised.

Wanda: thought you lived in Los Angeles.

Peter: nope, meet me at 3 p.m. if you could make it.

I quickly switched my phone off.  And drifted off into my slumber.

~ next day ~

I quickly rushed into doing my day to day things, same old routine of teeth brushing and eating whatever was on the table to be served, it was a weekend so I didn't need to worry about school. My phone rang, I knew I was already late to meet her since it was past the time I was supposed to see her but... I digressed. I got my suit and said my goodbyes to May before making my way to meet Wanda, as I exited my building. I turned around as I felt my senses tingle, fully aware that she was gonna tap me on the shoulder, how she looked was indescribable. Not gonna lie, she always looked like a mess, but the mess I saw was beautiful and it was not easy to not look at her but this just. I stuttered, I have not seen her actually got ready. Obviously she was cooped up so what's her reason to look as presentable as ever when everyone sees her like that on the daily. But she looked beautiful nonetheless.

"Staring is rude Peter", she giggled. I nervously chuckled as my hand instinctively rubbed my curly waves. I excused myself for a moment, forgetting that I wasn't in my suit. When I was in it already. Her eyes were on me.

"It's rude to stare", I teased back. She pouted which made her look cute. I gave her a lil smile.

"Well since the place is kind of far, I know just the way to go there", I said. She looked at me with a confused expression. I sighed at what I am about to do, I stepped closer to her. Probably bursting both of our personal bubbles.

"And just promise me you wouldn't scream so loud that it wouldn't break my eardrums please", I whispered as my hand snaked it's way to her waist. Holding her close.

"Peter I don't know what you'r-", I instantly cut her off as my webs stuck on the balcony. Swinging my way to the destination, Wanda held me close and tight.

All I could remember were the screams of terror that made me want to stop and comfort her.

Because she'll be safe and know that I will never do anything to hurt her.
