Chapter 2: Forgive and Forget
Peter landed on the fire escape. His heart was pounding but not from the adrenaline of swinging from buildings, but the fact that he could make things right with Gwen. He knocked on the window.
Gwen turned around and wiped her eyes. She gave him a faint beautiful smile. Gwen then walked the window quickly and opened it.
"Hey Pete" she said quietly. Peter crawled through the window. He pulled off his mask. "Hey" Peter replied.
They looked at each other and the ground awkwardly. "Well…" Gwen stated firmly. Gwen ether wanted him to say something or take her back.
"Gwen I-I, need… I need you," Peter blurted out. Whew, he finally got that off his chest. "I'm sorry, I was trying to honor your father, and I know he is in heaven above damning me"
Gwen laughed. That was a good sign. They looked into each other's eyes. Peter pulled her in and hugged her, lifting and spinning her. "I love you," he whispered. "I love you too" Gwen replied.
He put her down. "We are getting out of here," he said with a smirk on his face. "I know" Gwen replied. Peter walked towards the window while Gwen shouted down the hall to her mom that she was leaving.
Peter pulled her in by the waste close to his face. "Does my breathe really stink?" he asked. "No" Gwen replied while laughing. "Good" he said. With that, Gwen wrapped her arms around Peter's neck. Peter dove off. It felt like they were falling forever. He attached his web to the nearest building, pulled tightly, and zipped them through the air.
They then landed on a building. "Stay here and close your eyes," Peter requested. "What?" Gwen asked shocked. "Please, Gwen, for me?" Peter asked. Gwen reluctantly closed her eye smiling. Peter then ran off the building.
You see during those ten minutes before the big make up, seeing he wasn't far from Gwen's house at that time had this all planned out. He grabbed the sparkling drink from his back along with half smashed flowers. Now he had to see if the pizza was ready. He ran down to Tony's. "I have a pizza for… Spider-Man?" Tony shouted then saw something swoop down and replace the pizza with $10.
He plopped back on the roof balancing all the stuff. "Pete?" Gwen whispered in curiousness. "Open" Peter replied. She opened her eyes. She jokingly rolled her eyes. "So cliché Pete" Gwen smirked. Peter smiled. "What? Did you want a five star diner?". "That would have been nice, but this will do" Gwen replied.
They sat down and ate while joking around and talking. Peter pulled out his phone and played a romantic song. He stood up. "May I have this dance?" Peter asked. Gwen laughed. "Dancing on a roof with my boyfriend in a skin tight spandex suit, hmmm, not a normal date, but then again what is normal now?"
Gwen got up and interlocked fingers with Peter. They swayed back and forth.
Nothing could ruin this moment for them. Nothing.
