"Mary Jane!" Peter Parker yelled, stepping in through the door of Mary Jane Watson's apartment. "Mary Jane?"
Peter's heart started to thump loudly.
Oh no, he thought. Oh no, oh no, oh no! He checked everywhere in the apartment. Still no Mary Jane. Then his eye caught sight, of a letter, resting on a coffee table. Peter picked it up. Unfolding it, he found marvelous handwriting inside.
Peter,
By now, I shall be gone, along with Harry.
Harry? What would she be doing with-
What, oh God, Peter thought, his heart repeatedly pounding against his chest.
We have left Manhattan, to begin a new life where you can't find us. I'm so sorry Peter, but you were never there for me, and Harry is. He takes care of me, and puts me before himself, something you have never done.
Tears swelled up in Peter's eyes. She'd left him, for his best friend.
I didn't- couldn't tell you in person, because I knew the reaction you would have to it, and I just can't deal with or see you like that. I loved you Peter, and I know you loved me, but now my heart belongs to Harry.
Peter began to notice tear drops on the letter. He didn't know whether it was from him or her, but right now he didn't care.
I- we'll always miss you Tiger, but you'll always be in our hearts.
-MJ
Peter dropped the letter, his heart about to burst out of his chest. He began to cry, anger flaring up in his eyes. Then, he started punching himself, with all of his strength. It hurt more and more every time, but he didn't care. Blood started to drop from his new cuts, but he didn't care. Mary Jane had just left him- and he did care. He stopped, realizing literally beating himself up wasn't the answer.
Peter Benjamin Parker would just have to live without Mary Jane. He couldn't really bare a life without her, but he would have to learn to. He would have to tune out the surrounding world.
Spider-Man was taking over, and Peter Parker was becoming the lesser of two beings. If Peter were to survive his following years, he would have to journey, from hell and back…
