[Peter's]

"Why are you calling me?" I asked, slowing down to let the old lady cross the street
"I um.. listen I know you're not supposed to start until later but I have someone asking for you. I-I'm not sure how they know you're gonna work here.. I didn't give them any information, don't worry"

"Do they have a name?" I asked, nervous and a bit angry if I'm honest. "She said her name was Natalie"
"Natalie? I don't know a Natalie.."

"When does she want me to stop over?"
"She didn't say.. look can you come tomorrow? She's kind of.. terrifying? And she has so many men with her.."
Gwen sounded shaken up

"Alright I'll see you at 3 tomorrow. Tell her to come alone. Don't worry, I'll handle this. Don't sound scared to them.. okay?"
"Uh.. Okay. See you then.."

"Stark.. may be a bad idea" I mumbled to myself, finally pulling up to the apartment building
"Well.. never too late to back out.." I said to myself, picking my bandages from the passengers seat and dumping them in the nearest garbage bin

I unlocked the door and was greeted by many unhappy faces. "I see you've all missed me"
"Peter Benjamin Parker"

"One person saying my full is enough, thank you" i say putting my keys on the table beside the door.
MJ and Sean exchange a look

"Alright.. let me hear your disappointment in me. I'm as ready as I'll ever be"
"Peter, as much as I supported you I must say.. this is quite the stupid decision" surprisingly, that came from Ned

"I was waiting for you to switch sides on me"
"Sides? This isn't about sides!"

"Do you just expect me to do nothing when people are in danger? People could die" I said, walking into the kitchen area and looking through the fridge

"You could die" Sean replied, crossing his arms. 'Okay, muscle man' I thought looking at how him doing that made his biceps look huge

"That's one life" I grabbed an apple off the table, finding nothing in the fridge
"One life that's important to us" MJ sounded very angry. I wasn't surprised.

"Yes, my life matters to you three. There are tens of lives that matter to their families and friends. They matter just as much.."

Sean sighed, walking away and going to our room.
"We know what you're trying to do is the right thing.. but, Peter we all nearly lost you..

Think about how we feel when you put your life in danger like that" MJ spoke softly, resting her hand on my upper arm "you haven't even fully healed yet.."

"I know how you feel.. and I'm sorry, but I can't do nothing. It's not fair to you.. but that's just how it's gonna be" I gave her hand a squeeze

She looked upset but said nothing more.
Ned went to sit on the couch and watch anything on TV.
I didn't like the tension, but didn't have the energy to leave the house again.

I hated seeing them hurt. I hated the situation we were in right now. But, there was no place for emotions here.
