But if you spin it, then you get to see both sides.
Oh the thrill of the double life."

The sun dips lower over the skyscrapers of Shibuya, casting the city in a golden glow that gradually fades into a deep blue twilight. The city's vibrant pulse slows, and you find solace on the rooftop of your school, legs dangling over the edge, your thoughts as tangled as the urban jungle beneath you. You're replaying it in your head again—that night. The night when Spider-Man saved you.

It's still so vivid. The feeling of his strong arms wrapping around you as the car barreled through the intersection, a flash of red and blue swooping in to pull you out of harm's way. The world had spun for a moment, the sounds of screeching tires and distant shouts fading as you clung to him, your heart pounding in sync with his rapid movements. Spider-Man had landed effortlessly, setting you down with a teasing, lopsided grin beneath his mask.

"Got you, cutie," he had said, his voice so confident, so self-assured. "Try not to get into any more trouble, yeah?"

That voice. You hadn't been able to get it out of your head since then. It was playful but soothing, flirtatious but grounding. You found yourself drawn to it, to him. The way he had saved you with such ease, as if it were just another day for him, had left you breathless—not from fear, but from something deeper. Something you hadn't expected. Since then, your mind had been consumed with thoughts of the masked hero who had swooped in and disappeared just as quickly.

But then, there was Rui Kamishiro.

Your best friend since childhood, Rui was the opposite of Spider-Man in every possible way. Quiet, nerdy, and socially awkward, Rui was more likely to trip over his own feet than sweep someone off theirs. He spent most of his time buried in gadgets and tech experiments, mumbling to himself about whatever project he was working on or getting lost in his books. He was sweet, though, and always thoughtful in ways that made your heart warm.
