Spider-Man: no way home

C 35

I stand behind Other Peter, on the scaffolding.

We are just waiting for Peter to finish his message to the news.

To lure the bad guys here.

I think is stupid, but no, no one listens to me.

Other Peter is leaning with his back to me,  as he looks over the edge.

I  am just watching New Peter,  as  he is webbing the last of the antidotes to the scaffolding.

Why I agreed to join them up here, I have no idea.

One second I was in the lab at the school with Ned and MJ, the next I was following Other Peter onto the scaffolding.

What can I say, he brings out this whole other side of me.

A side I can't help but like.

"Okay guys it could be any minute now"

Peter is doing his typical Spiderman pose as he holds the box in one hand.

I roll my eyes at him.

Why he always gotta be posing like that?

Does he think it makes him cool?

I feel myself almost fall as i am distracted by Peter talking.

Other Peter is quick to  steady  me.

He pulls me to safety, carrying on with his previous actions.

I walk forward a bit so I am not so close to the edge.

I turn as I  hear Other Peter laughing.

"Yep, almost done"

New Peter webs the last antidote to the middle of the scaffolding.

"You know Max was like the sweetest guy ever before he fell into a pool of electric eels"

"That'll do it"

I turn from New Peter to Other Peter.

"You know if you fall through I'm not diving after you"

Peter turns as he leans forward, in front of me.

"I'm surprised you're even up here, and not with Ned and MJ"

"Need to make sure you don't do anything stupid"

"How do we know you won't do anything stupid"

"trust me, i'm not the type"

"You're up here with me, and last I checked you hated heights"

"Guess I've changed my mind"

"In the space of an hour?"

"Maybe"

Before I can process what is happening Other Peter pulls me into him, spinning us around, so I was the one near the edge.

I let out a deep breath of air as I try to calm myself.

I'm fine.

He won't actually drop me, right?

"How about now?"

"I'm fine"

"Really?"

"You've got me right?"

"Always"

"There it goes"

I turn from looking at Other Peter to New Peter.

New Peter is leaning on a bar, stretching out his back.
