Different Way Home || A Rina Au

Ricky Bowen is a semi-regular teen jock at East High School hiding a big secret: After being bitten by a radioactive spider in his freshman year, he has been saving the world as Spider-Man and has been able to balance that out with his learning and athletics for over three years. That is, until his senior year when he learns that a new threat has come to invade Salt Lake City. With Ricky always having to run off and fight the mysterious threat, it is his job to not only save his high school friends, but his environment as Spider-Man. Ricky's senior year is turned upside down in other ways when Gina Porter transfers to East High. After learning Gina's boyfriend, E.J. Caswell, goes to the school Ricky competes against, he is filled with distraught as he continuously works out how to love and fight, and how to be brave while also (hopefully) making a home in Gina's heart.
