You were walking back to your apartment after buying some groceries from the nearby grocery shop and some sandwiches from Delmar's deli. You still had your work clothes on, as you also had a part-time job at a nearby cafe so that you could help share the rent with Peter.

"Hello ma'am, fancy a ride?", you heard a familiar voice from above and saw New York's famous web-slinger Spider-Man, aka your roommate and long time friend Peter Parker, swinging from the building beside. You let out a chuckle, feeling that familiar fluttering of your heart. "Sure, I wouldn't pass up an opportunity for a free ride, spidey."

"Well then, hop on aboard the Spider express!", he announced, in a fake posh accent which made you giggle more, jumping down from the building.

He took one of the grocery bags, while you balanced the other bag and the sandwiches while climbing on him. You made sure not to put too much weight on him. You wrapped your arms around his neck and thighs around his hips, while he secured his arm carrying a grocery bag around your waist.

"Ready?", you nodded. "Here we go!" And with that he swung the both of you back to your apartment. You climbed off him and took the bag from his hand.

"Thanks for the ride Peter, hope I can return the favour. What would I do without you? You help me so much!"

"I promise, I'm here for you always. Now if you excuse me, I have a little more patrolling to do."

"Okay, take care."

(Next day)

Ron had invited everyone to a full blowout party. While you were excited to attend, Peter just tagged along as a loyal 'best friend secretly in love with you', and also he did not want you to attend the party alone, as he was aware of the number of guys who flirted on a daily basis with you.

"Hey (y/n)! Long time no see!", your friend, Mikayla called out to you.

"Mikki! So great to see you! Sorry, work and study occupy me." You cringed apologetically.

"It's okay. By the way, did you check out Wes? He's so hot! I heard he likes you." She started fangirling, as always.

"No please Mikki, I told you, I don't wanna- hi Wes!"

Wes appeared suddenly in front of you.

"You're welcome", she whispered and ran away, dragging Peter with her.

"You talking about me?"

"No, it's just that Mikayla keeps on trying to set me up with someone or the other, now that she has a boyfriend."

"Well, do you wanna dance?"

"Sure!"

He led you to where everyone was dancing, wrapped your waist with his hand and swayed with the music. As Flash, the DJ, changed the song, you both started dancing to the upbeat tempo rhythm of the song.

What you didn't notice was Peter eating in the corner, glaring holes in your head jealously,as he watched his crush dancing and looking happy with a more better looking guy, according to him. He had enough.

He approached you, completely ignoring Wes, pulled you by the waist and kissed you for a good 10 seconds. Both of your hearts burst as you kissed back. When he pulled away, he gave a look to Wes, who surrendered and went somewhere else.

You were still surprised and gaped at Peter, who shrugged and went somewhere else. You had a doubt as to what he could be onto. Mikayla had witnessed the whole thing and could not stop bugging you about how you and Peter were a great match and why you didn't tell her about it and so on.

You had your own questions for him. Well, you could wait till the party was over.

Peter had left the party early so that he could go on his daily patrol. When he swung back into his room, he was a little startled to see you waiting for him on his bed. His 'Peter tingle' sensed why you were there.

"Hey, what are you doing here? Thought you were asleep."

"Well I couldn't stop thinking about 'it' at the party. What got into you? I mean you can't just suddenly kiss me out of the blue and then disappear, and expect to be all nonchalant about it because I"

He interrupted your rant my kissing you again, this time with full passion. When he pulled away, his next words shocked you.

"I've fallen in love with you."

"I'm sorry, am I hearing you right? Did you just say you love me?"

"Yes, since freshman year, when you suddenly became so damn attractive with just sweatpants, I just got jealous I guess."

He was pouting a little. The pout which got you weak to the knees. You pressed the spider on his chest so that the suit would come off, leaving him in his boxers. You gave him a long peck in the cheeks.

"I love you too, spidey. Now, let's make out. I owe you a favour", you cheekily whispered, pulling him with you to his bed as he held your body against him.

Now that was a deal he couldn't pass up.

The end.
