A/N: I am obsessed with Spiderman and Percy Jackson and I write A LOT of Percy Jackson stories so I thought I would try a Spiderman fanfic. This is my first one. Disclaimer: I do not own Spiderman.
It might turn into a collection of one shots but for now it is just a one shot about if Peter somehow meets the kid he saved on the bridge and his father.
I don't know the fathers name so I am going to make up a name if I use it while writing today.
The Father's POV:
My little boy across the sidewalk and threw the leaves up in the air that were falling on the ground. We were taking a walk around the neighborhood and this street had a lot of leaves that Jack loved to jump in. There were little apartment like buildings surrounding the street. They were tiny and long.
"Hey, dad? What day is it?" Jack piped up after picking up a particularly orange leaf.
"Saturday." I said and walked behind him with my hands tucked in my pocket.
"Oh." He said and put the leaf in front of his face. "Dad this is the same color as your hard hat." I chuckled.
"Yeah it is buddy."
"Wouldn't it be funny if you had a leaf hat?" He said and handed me the leaf. It was dry and crackled a bit under my hand. I balanced the leaf on my head.
"How is that for a leaf hat?" I asked but the leaf fluttered to the ground. Jack giggled and put the leaf in his puffy vest. He did this when he wanted to keep it but he never understood that the leaf crumbled when it went in his pocket.
"That's funny dad. Come on." He pulled me along to another pile of leaves.
We were walking by a house and the door opened. I looked up and saw a teenage boy walking out of apartment 36. He had a skateboard in one hand and a black backpack on his shoulder. His hands were shoved deep into his coat pocket which was the top layer.
I looked back at Jack and he was crouched on the ground looking at another leaf. Where he was crouching was right in front of the front steps of the boy's house.
"Excuse me, sir." He said.
"Sorry about that." I said and went to move Jack. "Kiddo, move over a bit. Your in his way." Jack looked up at the teenager and widened his eyes.
"DAD! It Spider-man." He said. I whipped my head to the teenager. He had turned his head to look at Jack. Jack's words struck him like a brick wall. He looked at my son in horror.
"I'm sorry you must have me confused with someone." The boy said and ran a hand through his brown hair. I met his brown eyes and he looked at me nervously.
"Your voice…" I said and remembered the horrible day that my son got trapped in the car on the bridge. When I got my hands on Jack again, I remembered what I asked Spider-man that night on the bridge. He responded and I will never forget that tone of voice. The teenager in front of me looked like he was trying to keep calm. "You sound really familiar."
"Yeah people tell me that." He said and set his skateboard down on the sidewalk.
"I hope you don't mind me asking but-" He cut me off with a sharp glare.
"Then don't ask at all." His curt voice was short and a bit angry.
"Ok, I'm sorry to anger you." I said and he gave me one last look when he seized up and looked behind me.
I turned around and saw a police car scream down the street. The lights were flashing red and blue against the apartments. It passed with quick speed. I looked back at the teenage boy and he watched it disappear around the corner.
"Excuse me." He said and I moved. He then looked me right in the eyes. "Thank you." I couldn't help but think that his thanks wasn't just for moving out of his way. By the tone of his voice, I could tell the thanks had a deeper meaning. My thoughts strayed back to the time I pulled together all those cranes for the injured super hero. The boy rushed back to his doorway. I watched him close the door and his dark jacket left sight.
"Jack let's go."
"But dad! That was Spider-Man!" He stomped his foot and looked me directly in the eyes.
"Shh… Jack I think you were mistaken."
"No I wasn't." He prompted. "Trust me, that was him, dad!" I frowned and we kept walking. It was a familiar voice though. He looked like the right build.
As we walked, Jack didn't take a lot of interest in the leaves anymore. The sirens were still in the distant.
"Did your teacher assign you any homework?" I asked.
"No, first grade is easy dad. I finished it last- Dad look!" He pointed to the sky above. From behind us a brilliant red and blue figure flashed through the sky, chasing down the sirens. It came from where we were just at. A webbing wrapped around the streetlight and the figure flung itself towards the city.
Spider-man.
The man made an excited 'whooping' sound as he passed over head. I heard Jack squeal in excitement. By the proportions of the super hero, it matched up with the teenager I had just talked with.
All I could do was smile.
"Your secret is safe."
A/N: Ok, please tell me how it was : )
Have a great day!
