Summary
“Are you sure about this?
“Are you?” Michelle asks, watching as Peter shifts his weight back and forth. He looks nervous and has to be cold, the bite of the October air sending a chill down her spine. Michelle didn’t know the full extent of his spider powers but it was ridiculous for him to be put here in nothing more than t-shirt, adjusting the backpack she had in her hand.
“No. Not at all, I’m the opposite of sure. Maybe we should wait for—“
“I’m here, I’m here,” Ned says in a rush, coming up behind him as they crowd around in the empty alleyway. Michelle glances out to the busy street, chewing her bottom lip as he says, “You guys ready for this?”

Summary
“Does any part of you feel relieved by all this?”
“What do you mean?” He asks, pushing that away and focusing on MJ— the twinkle of the fairy lights that she has in her room lighting up the background as she adjusts her head on her pillow.
“Now that everybody knows, you don’t really have to hide or lie to people,” she says, placing her head on her hand as Peter sits up— guilt and frustration twisting around in his gut.
“For the record, I never wanted to lie to you,” he says, holding the phone tighter in his hand. “But how do you tell someone that you’re Spider-Man?”

Summary
“They all die fighting Spider-Man,” Strange says, “it’s their fate.”
Fate.
Peter bristles at that, his mind connecting the dots to the last time he’d seen Strange look like this— months ago to him but five years to everyone else, telling Mr. Stark there was only one way they could win against Thanos.
There was only one way, he’d said then and Peter chafes under the assumption that there’s one way now as Strange continues— actually looking apologetic as he says, “I’m sorry, kid.”
Peter takes a deep breath, nodding a few times before a grim feeling of determination settles over him.
“Yeah,” he says, “me too.”
Strange’s eyes widen as he calls out, “Don’t.”
He may be the Sorcerer Supreme, but Peter is Spider-Man— webbing up the box in his hand and swinging it back towards him.
He wasn’t going to let anyone else die because of him.

“Hold on tight,” he says as he loops an arm around her, MJ screaming as they go into free fall.
He knows she’s scared, knows in the week that she’s been his girlfriend that he’s asking a lot for her. But she said that she was in this with him, said that she noticed when no one else did.
He had one good week with her but he refuses to accept that it'll be the last.
Peter refuses to let anything happen to her.

Summary
It comes with the territory, of knowing people– of letting them into your life and into your heart.
They start to know you, understand you in a way that borders on uncomfortable.
Knowing someone, letting them in– it’s a risk in any sense of the phrase.
It’s a risk even more for what it’ll mean when you lose them.

“Do I know you?”
“No, not— I’m sorry, I—“
“How do you know my name?” She asks, seeing the stricken look on his face.
“It’s on your name tag,” he replies, a weak one since Michelle knows that’s a lie.
He’s a stranger and he’s lying to her.
Michelle’s going to figure out why.

Summary
“Listen buddy, why don’t we get that giant coat off you, maybe find a place to sit down and I can buy you a bottle of icy cold-- hey!”
The man abruptly twists back around, immediately disappearing around the corner of the far opening.
Peter sighs and swings himself up into the air, vowing to come back and do a patrol of the area later, just in case the man really could use his help. The alley falls back into silence and shadows in his wake.
Nobody’s there to notice the black puddle is now mysteriously gone.

A lightbulb goes off just as the two make their way onto the ice, a grin breaking out across her face as she glances at Peter– seeing him connect the dots just as easily as she did as he gives her a look.
“MJ…”
“I have an idea,” she says with a grin, pulling him forward.

He watches as she leans back, closing her eyes and letting the sun’s rays cast shadows across her face.
“You gonna keep staring or are you gonna finally relax?” She asks without even opening her eyes, Peter laughing as he finally does the same– laying down so that they’re shoulder to shoulder.
There was a slight breeze up here, the city’s sounds fading away into the distance.
Quiet. Peaceful.
Just the thing he needed.

“It’s still my fault, May. I shouldn’t— I should’ve—“
“So what?” She asks, Peter blinking back at her in surprise.
“Huh?”
“Let’s say it is, it’s all your fault. So what?”
“So…” Peter begins, taken aback by May’s words as he slowly shakes his head.
“So we try again, huh? We do better tomorrow,” May says with a smile.
“It’s just me and you.”

Summary
There’s a lot Michelle knows about Ned Leeds, from then and in the three years they’ve been roommates in college— growing up and growing together in a way that she was glad for.
She knows him and she loves him, just enough to recognize that when he tells her thank you it’s not just for the compliment, that it's his way of showing that he hears what she’s really saying.
Stop wasting time with people who don’t see the real you.
Ned deserves better anyway.

Summary
Tony Stark may have left behind a complicated legacy of destruction and arrogance in his wake, leaving Peter with a pair of glasses linked to death drones that he never should’ve had– but May wasn’t going to dwell on that.
Just as she wasn’t going to dwell on the itch in the back of her mind that the agent who had accused her of reckless endangerment might’ve been right.
There’s nothing she wouldn’t do for her child.
May Parker refused to let anyone else take responsibility for that.
