Chpt.8 Sh*t

Blaire's pov

"Why haven't you been answering my calls?" My uncle asked as a hologram in my kitchen as I made myself something to eat.

"I'm sorry, I went.. I went on a field trip with my class." I lied as I lighted the stove, placing a pot onto it.

"What's that?" He asked.

I looked at him confused. "What?"

"That right there! Are you hurt?! That's a cut you your head." He pointed out.

I groaned, rolling my eyes. "I tripped. Up the stairs." I mumbled.

"Listen, I need you to be careful with everything you do! You're still human. Just because you can fly and shoot beams from your palms-"

"And fire apparently.."

"What?" He looked at me.

"Fire."

"That's not right. Fire... Hmm look Blaire, stay out of trouble. I'll call you later to check back in with you. Love you." He said before disconnecting.

I let out a sigh and turned off the stove. I wasn't actually going to cook. That's the least of my worries.

I had already ordered pizza before my uncle had called.

I walked into my closet, looking at the case he gave me. I haven't opened it since. I kneeled down, clicking the buttons to open the case which revealed a suit.

I picked it up, staring at it and taking in all of its detail. It was the same texture as Spidermans suit.

-

"Hey." I said as I landed next to spiderman. He looked at me with wide eyes before scrambling to his feet. "Woah! Cool suit!"

I smiled. "Pretty awesome I know. It's a bit uncomfortable but I need to get use to it." I floated around him, watching as he turned around to keep looking at me.

"So, what's today's mission?" I asked as I took a seat at the edge of the building.

"Well actually.. there is no mission. I just wanted to make sure you're okay.." he said, sitting next to me.

"I'm doing alright, thanks for asking." I looked over to him to see that he was already looking at me.

"You think maybe we could.. reveal each other's identity? Right here? Right now?" He asked, standing up quickly.

"What?" I stood up and walked over to him. "Why?" I asked.

"We've been hanging out, fighting together and we don't even know who each other is. We can trust one another right?"

"I.. I can't do that. It's too dangerous." I responded.

"I..I like you, alot!" He blurted out. I stared at him, surprised at his sudden outburst.

"I'm sorry, Spidey but... I like someone else.. I'm truly sorry." I mumbled but he heard.

"This guy, what's he like?" He asked.

At first I didn't want to tell him, but I just needed someone to explode to.

"He's amazing..I enjoy being around him. He's smart and funny and..I want to be with him but I'm afraid I'm not sure how.."

"Go to him. He's missing out if he doesn't want you back." He said lowly.

"Spidey-" as I looked at him, he was already gone.

"I'm sorry.." I whispered.

-

I quickly threw off my suit as soon as I got inside my apartment. I changed quickly before running out.

I headed downstairs to Peter's apartment and knocked on the door.

As the door opened, Peter's aunt stood there with a smile on her face. "Hi! Is Peter here?" I asked and she shook her head. "He's..not- are you okay?" She asked.

"I'm okay.. I just.. really need to tell him." I said. "Tell him what- oh my God..no way.." she suddenly squealed. "Peter isn't here but when he gets back, I'll send him up to you, okay?" She said and I nodded. "Thank you.."

I quickly ran off back to my apartment.

-

During my time at school, Peter was not here at all. Must've been on that trip still with his classmates. My attention soon diverted to the screen in the hall that showed the news, mentioning spiderman.

There was a ship that was split in half and on fire. I quickly ran through the hall, finding my way into the girls bathroom where I pulled out the device spiderman had gave me.

He never contacted me!

I locked the bathroom door and placed the suit band on my wrist, pressing a button and the suit covered my entire body.

I put my mask on and opened the window to the bathroom.

"You locked me in here." I quickly turned around to see Michelle standing there, staring at me.

"Shit." I mumbled.

"Hi."

"Uh hi!" I responded. "You didn't see anything did you?" I asked.

"Your secrets safe with me. But I'll need an explanation later." She said.

"Thanks, MJ." I smiled and flew out of the windows quickly, leaving the school premises.

-

When I had arrived at the scene, everything was over. The ship was back together in one piece, headed back to the docks, surrounded by other smaller boats.

As I was going to head back, a familiar voice called out to me. I turned around to come face to face with my uncle in his suit.

"Why aren't you in school?" He asked. "I saw the news and thought spiderman was in trouble and needed help.." I said, fidgeting with my fingers.

"He was in trouble, he did need help but I got here just in time. On the other hand, I took his suit." He said, holding up Spidermans suit.

"What? Why?!" I asked.

"He disobeyed my orders when I told him to forget about that volture guy." He said flying away and I followed close to him.

"But uncle Tony, you can't just do that! New york needs spiderman. Without him-"

"I don't need you to lecture me, Blaire. You're here to live a normal life remember?! You're out fighting, using your powers and getting yourself hurt. I should take your suit too!" He said furiously.

"I'm just-"

"No! Understand what I'm trying to tell you! This world will chew you up and spit you out, just like it did with my sister. You're all I have left of her and I don't want to lose that. Go home and stay out of trouble!" He said before blasting off at an incredible amount of speed.

"Ugh!"
