Black Cat picked up the unconscious Spider-Man and carried him away. It had been four hours of carrying him till she reached one of her apartments that she usually crashes at. She had threw Peter on the couch and removed his suit to see, dark circles under his eyes, his messy brown hair, and his hard-toned chest which made Felicia blush at him.
"How long have you been looking for us, Spider?" Felicia asked combing her hands through his unkempted hair. She grabbed a shirt and black pants and put them on him while sticking his suit in a nearby dufflebag.
She walked into her room and saw her son asleep on her bed and smiled. She definitely saw the resemblance between Peter and Benjamin. She took off her suit and stuffed it into the closet as she came out with one of Pete's oversized shirts and black shorts while tying her hair up into a messy bun. She hopped into bed snuggling next to her bundle of joy and went to sleep.
"BEEP-BEEP-BEEP!" Says the alarm clock. Felicia woke up with a groan as she hit snooze.
She lazily got up to see her son watching TV. Spider-Man and friends was on one of his favorite shows, "Good Morning sweetie." She kissed his head.
"Morning mommy." He smiled as he hugged his Spider-Man plushie as he turned back towards the television. She got up and walked into the living room to see Peter still asleep, she journeyed into the kitchen and started breakfast for the three of them.
Peter woke to the smell of breakfast. He looked around and noticed he wasn't in his apartment. He looked down and saw his suit was gone, "What happened last night?"
"You were depriving yourself of sleep, Spider, looking for us." A voice rung out. Peter looked around and saw a figure in the kitchen. She was wearing an oversized shirt with black shorts and had her platinum-white hair in a messy bun.
"Felicia?" Peter asked maybe he was going insane and his mind was playing tricks on him.
"Who else would it be?" She smiled at him as he made his way over to her. He wrapped her arms around her waist, "I asked you if you missed this didn't I?"
"You did, but I don't have anything standing in my way anymore. Where's Ben?" Peter looked around and didn't see the platinum white haired boy around.
"He's in the back watching cartoons." She turned around to look at him, "Go see your son."
He nodded releasing his grip on her and walked towards her room. As he got closer his heart rate was speeding up, he was so nervous to be meeting someone he didn't even know he had. As he grabbed the doorknob he heard what sounded like Spider-Man and Friends a tv show based off him, Phoenix, and Iceman. He saw a boy with platinum white hair sitting in the middle of Felicia's bed hugging a Spider-Man plushie. Peter opened the door wider and the boy looked at him.
He tightened his grip on the plushie afraid of the man in front of him, "Are you one of mommy's bad friends?"
"No, no, I'm one of the good friends." He sat on the bed as the boy's grip softened, "My name is Peter, Peter Parker."
The boys head tilted in confusion, "I've heard of you from mommy. She's always sits at the table crying, 'How she wished Peter was here.' and 'Why didn't she tell him' and many other things." The boy told him about some of the things Felicia did.
Peter was mentally kicking himself for not being here for them, "I'm here now and I won't be leaving anytime soon. Has she mentioned anything about who your father is?"
Ben shook his head no, "Mommy says, 'daddy is a busy man who doesn't have time for me', but she says he's gonna come and see me soon. She also said he helps a lot of people." But Peter could see tears falling from the platinum white hair which made his heart stop, "But I don't think he wants to see me."
Peter was on the verge of tears as well, "Of-of course he wants to see you."
"Ho-how wou-would you know." Ben stuttered out as he wiped his tears away, "My daddy has never came to visit me."
Peter rubbed the back of his neck, he couldn't even form a coherent sentence on why he hasn't came to visit his child sooner. When Felicia came in and hugged her son tightly before locking eyes with him, "Ben sweetie, do you want to meet your father?"
Ben sniffled and nodded, "I just want to give my daddy a hug." Peter's heart was stomped on when he heard his one wish to give his father which was him a hug.
"Baby, look at Peter." Felicia engulfed him in a hug as he sat on his mother's lap, "Why do you think he's here?" Ben looked up at his mother before shrugging his shoulders, "He's come to see you."
Ben looked at her confused until realization hit him and tears started streaming down his cheeks, "Daddy." Ben tackled Peter into a hug sobbing into his chest, "My daddy came to see me."
"Of course I have buddy and I'm not going anywhere anytime soon." Peter cried out happily as he and the boy embraced. Felicia smiled as she watch her son and ex-lover hug as if it were there last time seeing each other. Peter saw Felicia crying and ushered her over and joined the family embrace.
"Come on boys, breakfast is ready." Felicia stated as she got up from the bed waiting for Ben to come to her, but he wasn't leaving Pete's chest.
"I'll bring him." He smiled as she nodded and headed into the kitchen. Peter carried Ben into the kitchen and sat him down in his chair as he took a seat next to him.
All morning Ben has been attached to Peter never letting his father leave his site. Peter sat on the couch an arm wrapped around Felicia while Ben sat in between the two of them watching cartoons.
"Who's your favorite superhero Ben?" Peter asked as Ben held up his Spider-Man plushie, "I know Spider-Man." He stated and could swore he saw Ben's eyes sparkle.
"What's he like? What's his favorite TV show? What's his favorite color? Is he...an alien?" Ben bombarded him with questions as Peter laughed at the smiling boy. Ben was happy to have a complete family.
"If your mom allows it, I'll even let you meet him." Peter gazed up at Felicia who sent him a 'are you serious' look. Which made Peter laugh. Ben looked at his mother who he gave the puppy dog eyes too.
"Fine we'll allow it one day." Felicia smiled as the young boy shouted in happiness. Till the news came on.
"Breaking news, the Rhino has been seen rampaging through Manhattan and Spider-Man if you're watching this please help us." The news anchor replied begging for Spider-Man's help. Peter was on full alert and needed to get down there.
Peter looked at Felicia and she nodded, he then looked down at Ben, "Ben, I need to go."
"What! No! Daddy you just got here don't leave!" Ben cried out not wanting him to leave.
"I promise I will come back." Peter promised he'd return for the boy.
"Pinky promise?" Ben held out his pinky as Peter returned the promise.
"Promise." He smiled, but Ben didn't, he was still sad that he had to leave.
"Don't worry sweetie, he'll be ok." She hugged him as Peter grabbed the dufflebag and raced out the door, "Don't worry your dad's coming back." She said as she saw the arachnid swinging away.
Peter swung through the city making his way to Manhattan he wanted to hurry up cause he promised to come back to his family. You looked down to see the police shooting at the armored rhino. Peter landed on Rhino's back as the police stopped shooting.
"Everyone, Spider-Man is here to save us!" The news anchor yelled happily into the camera.
"Sorry Aleksei, but I have somewhere to be so I'm gonna make this quick, sound good?" Spider-Man replied anxiously wanting to get back to his son.
"Why tiny Spider? No want to play with Rhino today?" Rhino's heavy Russian accent asked.
"I have someone waiting for me at home and I don't wanna keep him waiting." Peter replied as he slammed his fist into Aleksei's back.
"Rhino is gonna have fun killing tiny spider!" Aleksei boasted as he grabbed Peter's leg and flung him into a fall. Peter hit the wall hard, he coughed and groaned in pain as his spider sense went off, but he was too slow to dodge as Aleksei slammed his foot into his chest breaking a few of Peter's ribs. The wall Peter was crumbled from the strength of the Rhino sending Peter through it.
Aleksei laughed as Spider-Man gritted his teeth and flew through the open wall Rhino sent him through. He balled up his red and blue fist and smashed it into Rhinos face. Then he followed it up with a left hook, and a kick to his face. He jumped onto Rhinos back, using it as a spring board while webbing it, then sling shooting himself into Aleksei's face.
Back at Felicia's House
Felicia and Ben were cuddled up on the couch watching the Rhino rampage as Spider-Man aka Peter Parker arrived. Ben smiled as Spider-Man landed on Rhino's back, but then frowned when he was flung into a wall, stomped on, and sent through a building wall. Felicia winced as she knew Rhino had broken a few of his ribs atleast.
"Mommy, is Spider-Man gonna be ok?" Ben questioned as he looked at the platinum white haired woman.
"I'm sure he'll be fine sweetie, see." Felicia replied as Spider-Man webbed Rhino's face then begun his assault on Rhino.
"Will daddy be ok?" Ben asked as Spider-Man gained the upper hand on the rhino.
"If there's one thing I know about your father is that he'll never quit no matter what stands in his way he'll overcome any and all obstacles." She stated as she kissed his head, "That's what I love about him."
They went back to watching the tv as Rhino went charging at Spider-Man who jumped out the way and webbed his back. Using his strength he pulled the colossal man to the ground and then landed on his chest and webbed his arms to the ground.
"This will never stop the Rhino, tiny spider." Aleksei replied struggling to get free.
"Never said it would stop you, but enjoy Rikers." Spider-Man stated as he lifted up his fist and slammed it into Aleksei's face, knocking out the Russian man. He freed the man's arms and wrapped his entire body in a cocoon and swung away.
Ben hopped onto the couch with excitement plastered onto his face, "He won mommy! He won!"
"I know." She smiled at him, "I'm gonna get dinner started before your father comes home. Be a good boy."
"I will mommy." He smiled as he sat back down and turned on Spider-Man and Friends, but in the distance a blur of red and blue came swinging into view. Peter landed on the roof of Felicia's apartment and changed back to the clothes Felicia had given him.
He stuffed his suit into the dufflebag and went inside, he made it to the door and knocked lightly before hearing Felicia's voice, "It's open, Pete."
Peter opened the door and saw Felicia in the kitchen and Ben in the living room watching TV. He walked over to Felicia and she got a look at him. She lifted up his shirt to see a giant bruise forming on his chest.
"You ok?" Felicia asked concerned for him.
"Yeah. I'll be ok, I heal quickly remember." He smirked as he walked into the living room, "Ben, I'm back."
Ben smiled widely and ran straight into him, "You came back?"
"I promised remember, but not just any promise it was a pinky promise." He saw the giant smile on his boys face.
"Come watch cartoons with me!" Ben smiled as he pulled Peter into the living room and sat on the couch with him.
Ben sat in Peters lap watching his favorite cartoon with his father smiling brightly when Felicia's voice broke the two from the television, "Dinner's ready you two."
Peter and Ben walked over to the table to see three bowls of chicken and rice, Ben's favorite food, "Looks good." Peter laughed as Felicia smacked him upside the head, "Ow, what was that for?"
"You know what it was for." She replied with a smirk as Ben watched the exchange between his parents a smile plastered on his face.
Peter was about to retaliate when his phone started ringing, "You guys go ahead, I'm gonna take this call." He replied as Felicia nodded and sitting down next to Ben.
Peter walked out the door and saw who was calling, "Miles?" He asked himself skeptically, "Hey Miles."
"Hey Pete, I saw the news earlier. Are you ok?" His voice rung out with concern from the other side.
"Yeah I'm good. A bit sore, but nothing I can't handle."
"That's good Pete, when can we start training?" Miles questioned the older arachnid.
"I honestly don't know ever since Black Cat showed up I've had a lot on my plate. Don't worry I promise I'll start training you so one day there will only be one Spider-Man." He said wanting Miles to take over as Spider-Man so he can focus on raising his son.
"Sounds good Pete, and don't worry I'm sure you'll catch the Black Cat soon." Miles replied, "By the way, I heard from Mary Jane, about you guys. What happened?"
"That's a conversation meant for another day, Miles." Peter replied not wanting to get into that.
"Oh ok, sorry."
"It's alright, I gotta go, I'll cya later."
"Bye Pete." Miles said as he hung up.
Peter put his phone back into his pocket and walked back inside to see Felicia cleaning off Ben's messy face, "Uh, what happened here?"
"Daddy I made food art." He shouted as he held up his chicken and rice and had some smeared across his head.
Peter couldn't help, but laugh as he sat down next to his son and Felicia, "I gotta take a picture." He took out his phone and snapped a few pictures of his son's food art.
"Come on, Ben. Bath time." Felicia stated as she picked the toddler up and took him into the bathroom. Peter begun eating his food as he heard Felicia yelling from the bathroom, "BEN, GET BACK HERE!!"
Ben ran back down the hall without clothes on and chicken and rice smeared into his hair yelling, "I'm Captain Nakey!!"
Peter almost choked on his dinner as Ben was streaking around the apartment yelling and refusing to get into the tub. Felicia looked over at the brown haired man who was laughing and choking on his food.
"Thanks for the help!" Felicia yelled at him trying to catch the streaking toddler.
Peter got out of his seat, and started chasing the boy around the living room, when he finally grabbed the toddlers leg and held him upside down, Ben squirmed around as Peter passed him along to the waiting Felicia.
"Thank you." She said and walked back into the bathroom with him. Peter laughed a bit more as he started cleaning up his sons mess and washed the dishes.
"Who knew having kids could be this fun." He then remembered his Aunt May and Uncle Ben raising him. He smiled a bit and walked into Felicia's bedroom and laid in the bed.
"Hold still Ben!" He could hear Felicia yell, "Stop squirming!"
After a few more minutes Felicia and a nicely clean Ben came into the room, "Their that wasn't so hard was it?"
Ben hopped into bed with Peter wearing his Spider- Man jammies, "Daddy, I'm all clean!"
"I see that, were you giving mommy a hard time?" Peter questioned as Ben nodded his head a bit sadly. Peter ruffled his head and whispered into his ear, "Good job."
"I heard that!" Felicia yelled from the closest as Ben and Peter laughed some more. Ben cuddled into Peters side and begun drifting off to sleep.
"Daddy, will you be here when I wake up?" The drowsy toddler asked as Felicia came back into the room climbing into bed with the two boys.
"Yeah, I will." He said making the tired little boy smile as he drifted of too sleep.
"Peter?" Felicia questioned him.
Peter looked over at the Cat burglar as sadness was written on her face, "Yeah?"
"I've wanted to tell you so many times about him, but I was afraid you'd turn us away. Since you were so busy with the red head and being the hero this city needs, so I filled Ben's head up telling him that you just couldn't make the time to come here." She started, "I'm sorry, because of me you missed four years of his life." She ended as tears ran down her face.
"Felicia, I don't blame you for what you did. You don't need to apologize for it. I'm here now and I won't be leaving again." He sat up and brushed some of her tears away, "I'm sorry that you get caught up in my webs."
She smiled, "Hey, this cat's crazy for getting tangled with the spider." She leaned into his touch as Peter smiled at her, "Will you stay?"
"Of course, I wanna see my son grow up." He replied, but she quickly shook her head.
"No, that's not what I meant." She replied as she looked away from him.
"Then what did you mean?" He questioned her.
"Will you stay with me?" She asked him as Peter looked shocked his face softened as he smiled at the crazy cat lady.
"Yeah, I will." He responded as Felicia whipped her head around as Peter leaned into her and placed his lips onto hers. Felicia's eyes widened in shock, but she quickly closed them as she kissed him back enjoying every second of him. Peter pulled away leaving a purring Felicia with wanting more.
"Such a tease." Felice whined as she laided down next to her son.
"Oh yeah? Who do you think I get it from." He raised his eyebrow as Felicia turned the other way ignoring him which made Peter laugh, "Goodnight to you too Felicia."
"Good night Peter."
