Chapter 1

AN: Hey guys! So, I decided to finally write a story, Spider-Man of course. TASM universe of course. Peter and Gwen pairing of course. I'm really excited to share this with you guys, I've been working on it for a pretty long time. I love reading and I read a lot, but I've never really written before, so I hope it's good! It isn't perfect, with both grammatical and "flow of the story" errors, but I tried my best, so I hope you like it! It's in the TASM universe, so the characters are represented by the actors in the TASM movies (Andrew Garfield is Peter and Emma Stone is Gwen). I had inspiration from several of my favorite stories but also from my own brain! I hope you guys enjoy it and please review! :) :)


Peter walked into the school. He had just gone off on "crime fighting" as his alter ego before breakfast, but he had been late so he hadn't had time to eat. His stomach growled as he opened his locker, or tried to. There was always a couple there who were very, well, affectionate. They just had to have their make out session every morning in front of his locker.

'Sheesh get a room' Peter thought. Lately, he had been realizing how lonely he was; he was either always in his room or out in the city as Spider-man. Peter also didn't really spend time with Aunt May anymore. Poor Aunt May. After all she'd gone through, especially with Uncle Ben's death… Peter thought he was a terrible nephew and should spend more time with her, but he was always so busy he didn't have time to other than at meals. So, a love life was currently "out of the question".

'Whatever' he thought. 'I don't have time for that. My duty is to protect the city… anyway; no one would even want to date me.'

He ran a hand through his hair which was usually in a messy state and sorta sticking up, but it looked, well, good. And cool. He took great care in his hair.

Peter shut his locker and hopped on his skateboard. No matter what his teachers said, he always rode it at school.

"Hey, Parker!"

Peter sighed. 'Fuck.'

It was Flash, the blond-buzz-cut school bully, and he always picked on Peter. But, after a certain basketball fiasco in which Peter crushed (literally) the basket, he and Flash had been much better off than before.

"Hi, Flash" Peter ducked his head trying to avoid him. "Hey, I need to talk to you".

Peter groaned. 'Now what?'

"You're taking the pictures of the basketball team after school right? For the school newspaper? Make sure you get a close-up of me!" he smirked.

Peter was slightly surprised. "Oh, uh, ye-yeah no problem"

Flash grinned. "Okay good Parker" and went off with his goons.

Peter sighed again and went to class. He had chemistry next and walked in and sat at his desk and lay his head down. He was still hungry.

"Okay class, settle down" His professor waved his hands around, although there wasn't really a need to settle down. Peter was in advanced chemistry, so all of the people here were in his academic level and, not to sound conceited, more civilized than other people.

"So, I'm going to pair you guys up for your lab assignment, which is due next month. But, first, I'd like to introduce you guys to our new student Gwen."

Peter looked over not really interested, but when he did, it was as if time stopped. The new girl was blonde and was wearing a black headband pulling back her golden tresses. She had on high heeled boots and had the most sparkling green eyes Peter had ever seen. He was completely entranced by her and every thought he had had about not having time for love completely vanished. She was like a beautiful and magnificent angel that shone and glowed bright like the stars and the moon at night… wait- what?

He snapped back into reality as she was saying "-name's Gwen Stacy and, um, I moved here from Brooklyn when my dad was made captain of the police force. I really love science so I'm looking forward for being in this class."

Everyone clapped politely but Peter continued to stare. 'She's really pretty AND likes science. Oh my God, it's like an angel came from Heaven…'

The professor continued "Okay everybody, I'm going to announce your lab partners. Remember, this will account for 20% of your semester grade. Ashley you're with Will, Mary you're with Richard, Ana you're with Thomas, Peter you're with Gwen, John you're with Louisa…"

Peter's head jerked up. 'Wait I'm with Gwen?! What?! I'm not going to be able to concentrate o-or talk o-or even- '

"Hi, I'm Gwen Stacy"

Peter bit his lip and his eyes looked up and met her beautiful ones. Her voice had a husky tone to it and danced on Peter's ears. He gulped. "H-hi I'm, um, uh, I'm…"

Gwen smiled. Her eyes sorta squinted and her nose kinda scrunched up, Peter noticed. It was adorable. "Peter…?"

"Oh y-yeah, um, I'm Peter. Peter Parker." He sputtered. Gwen laughed. It was a beautiful sound to him.

The professor started sitting down. "Okay class, you can discuss with your partners and learn more about them for the rest of the period." He sat down at his desk and plugged his earphones in.

Gwen sat at the lab bench next to him. "So, Peter, do you like science? I would assume so, since you're in accelerated chemistry."

Peter still couldn't get over the fact that they were paired up together. And actually talking. He gulped. "Oh, yeah, um, I love science. I think want to become a biochemist."

Gwen's eyes widened and she smiled. "Really? That's so awesome! I want to study molecular medicine. Now I have an internship at Oscorp, but my dream is to work in a lab- maybe even there!"

"Wow, that's really impressive" Peter was impressed.

Gwen smiled. "Thanks! So, what do you do for fun?"


AN: Hey guys, I hope you liked it! I would like any ideas you have and will definitely consider them! Also, did anyone notice that when the professor was pairing them up, he said Richard and Mary (aka Peter's parent's names)? Just me, trying to be cute! Have a wonderful day/night! :)
