Disclaimer: heck I don't even have a bit of the money needed to buy any part of Spider-Man either.

"I was always playing the part: first love only set by a spark"

I sighed once again before entering into the building I had stopped by only the other day, tapping my foot impatiently as I got in line for the front desk.

Jesus why does Gwen ALWAYS forget her dinner on days like these?

If you hadn't already guessed I was at Oscorp once again, this time because Gwen being the genius she is, forgot that she couldn't leave the lab during her experiment, thus no dinner. I know Peter would normally be the one to bring her food but considering they were on one of their "off" phases it was left to me.

Not that I really minded, I had nothing better to do and I loved Gwen. We had become friends freshman year in highschool when we sat next to each other in a dreadfully easy biology class (not that some people considered it easy and that's another thing that contributed to our friendship). When her and Peter initially started dating, oh my sweet marmalade was I happy, they were cute as can be and they both were happy with each other! When they first broke up I was considerably sad, my ship had sunk, but they got back together soon enough anyways. I knew it was because of Peter's guilt about Gwen's dad that kept him from pursuing a full relationship, and I'm sure Gwen's eventually figured that out as well. Luckily they're both top notch people and haven't included me in their feuds or fights, so I've still been friends with both because they still legitimately love each other.

I perked up from my thoughts as the receptionist said "NEXT!"

I stepped forwards.

"Hello miss, I have a dinner to drop off or deliver, whatever Oscorp prefers, to miss. Gwen Stacy in lab 23 on floor 17." I said as politely as I could. The woman gave me a once over, her mouth slightly open revealing slightly yellowing teeth not complimented by the cakey red lipstick the middle aged woman had on.

"Really now? You're here to deliver something, and not planning to sneak into Oscorp at all?" She seemed to scoff.

Damn you Peter for sneaking in to see Gwen one too many times.

"Can I leave it with you then to bring up to here? I know she hasn't eaten since lunch in school and she'll need some food to be productive in any way" I tried to plead, knowing that receptionist didn't want to let me up.

"If you leave that here miss I'll be the one eatin' it," she said and I wanted to snarl, this should not have been this difficult I swear!

"Please ma'am, I can sign in here, bring the food up, and if I don't come back within twenty minutes You can call security," she gave me an unconvinced look, "I'll even leave something here to assure I'll come back!" I insisted, she wasn't taking it.

"Yeah yeah who knows what you'll do though, now move along. NEXT!" She shouted the last past and I was shoved aside by some man. I walked away from the desk, scowled for a moment, and looked around for someway to get Gwen her food, no way was I letting her go for more than 10 hours without any food! I growled to myself about to give up despite my better self when.

"Adeline?" I abruptly turned around to see Harry, I waved and said hi, I didn't really seem to dislike him as much since the other day, "what are you doing here?" He glanced at my clothes but this time didn't wince at my appearance, probably because I was wearing a more presentable outfit, nicer olive green pants with my black winter coat and I actually brushed my hair.

"Well I was trying to drop some food off for my friend Gwen, err she's an intern in the laboratory sciences department, but the receptionist rudely wouldn't let me bring it up, or drop it off to get delivered." Harry's eyes slightly narrowed at what I believe to be his employees behavior. He followed it up with a sigh.

"They're probably just trying to keep the place safer after the lizard incident and all of the people sneaking into Oscorp lately," he replied and I waved my hands frantically.

"No no s'all good I get that, I just wish I could get Gwen this food," Harry seemed to think for a minute.

"Follow me I can take you to here," he started walking towards the elevator and after a moment, I hurried to catch up with him, in a stumper as of why he'd help me. He used some key card and we both went into the elevator. After the door closed he spoke up.

"Harry Osborn and guest to floor," he turned to me expectantly.

"Err. 17" I responded, making sure my voice was loud enough. The elevators ai seemed to accept it and we started moving up. I felt a bit awkward, considering I had started practically hating him and here he was being nice to me. Maybe I misjudged him? I glanced over and noticed there was a slight scowl on his lips. Or not I guess…

"Thanks, by the way," his eyes met mine, "I really appreciate you doing this as I don't know what else I'd have done," I smiled at him, genuinely too. Maybe it was just me but his face seemed to soften.

"Don't worry about it, think of it as a kind gesture from the heart," he smirked here and I snorted at him.

"Sure sure, still thanks a bunch," it was then the elevator bell dinged and the doors swung open. I stepped out first, Only then realizing I didn't know where "lab 23" exactly was. I started to turn my head when Harry did step out, with a slightly annoyed sigh of course.

"I'm assuming you don't know where lab 23 is," he said with a glance, not waiting for me to finish before walking away.

"Nope," I replied popping the p as a follower after him. A few people stared, probably because mr. Leecher with a probably judgmental and bratty streak (If the news was anything to go by) was bringing in some non employee. We walked in comfortable silence to a tinted glass door that said 23 on it with a key card thing on the side that was glowing orange (I later learned this meant no more people could enter). Harry took the initiative to knock on the door.

A few moments passed when the familiar blond haired girl popped her head though, her eyes focusing on Harry before focusing on me.

"Oh Adeline you're here with food, let me go take off my gloves quickly," she exclaimed before heading back in the lab. She came back out a moment later and gave me a hug.

"You. Are. The. Best. I'm starving!" I handed the bag to here with a smile.

"I knew you would be," she took a peek in the plastic bag, "oh I made some Spanish themed risotto with chicken for you, they were leftovers from home." She grinned at me.

"Ada you know I live for your cooking thanks so much! I would love to chat a bit more and talk to your friend but I can't leave the tests long so I gotta get back in there." As if on cue a voice resounded from the lab.

"Gwen we need to record the results from this run get back in here!" Gwen rolled her eyes.

"There you go, I'll text you later Ada!" She abruptly spoke before going back to whatever lab thing she was doing before. I laughed a bit at her rushed state, realizing she hadn't really addressed Harry at all. I gave him an apologetic look.

"Sorry about her, as you can tell she was in a rush," he looked like he was annoyed at her but I couldn't tell for sure.

"No worries, we're friends apparently," he said with some sarcasm, I shrugged.

"Only if you want to be," I blushed a bit, jeez what kind of answer was that? "Oh and just for reference Gwen is Peter's on/off girlfriend," by then we had made it back to the elevator and were waiting.

"Really that's his girlfriend?" He responded with some (I believe) disbelief. I laughed again.

"Yup, I can't tell whether you're surprised Peter would date someone like her, or that she would ever go for someone like Peter," I grinned mischievously. Harry laughed back, a small but genuine smile settling into his features.

Huh, his smile is really nice. I blushed at my own comments. No brain, we are NOT crushing on another person okay? As if I didn't already sound insane, my brain started arguing with itself.

Come on, you know you want to crush on him, just look at how pretty his eyes are!

So? Our last endeavor had some stellar features and he turned out to be a jerk!

Yes but this one's got some quality fashion sense too… and his smile fam… and his laugh fam…

Yeah his smile is cute…

AHAH YOU'RE CRUSHING NOW AREN'T YOU!?

Ah damn you me!

Why did we even hate him in the first place?

That's a good question… wasn't it because….

We don't even have a reason to hate him! I say next time we try to be more friendly to him.

Agreed.

Wait is he saying something…

Crap he is…

What did he just say?

I was able to distract myself from my inner musings in an attempt to not seem like an idiot. Too late, Harry was staring at me expectantly. Little frackin horsefeathers what did he say? I gave a signature Adeline chuckle.

"I'm sorry I just missed what you said," he gave me an annoyed look probably that I was wasting his time or something, let out a sigh and turned away before answering with bite.

"Never mind about it," I frowned. And just when he had smiled, thanks prone to distractions brain o' mine… The elevator bell dinged once and the doors once again swung open. Harry followed me out and I sighed dejectedly before turning to wave goodbye and head off. A warm hand dropped onto my shoulder before I could do any of that though. I met his bluebell eyes instantly, that being all I could focus on.

"Actually, would you like to go out for coffee sometime, seeing as we're both Peter's friends it might be better to get to know each other better. I paused my steps, slightly quirking my head. What brought this change of pace? But I quickly gathered myself and tried to smile.

"I guess I wouldn't mind," I replied, blushing a bit as I fumbled through my purse, "err do you mind putting your number in my phone so I can text you?" It was his turn to pause for a second, but he grabbed my phone and punched in his number. Scrolling through my contacts I then reached his and sent him a text, showing him I'd done so too before skipping (not literally) out of Oscorp. Any women it myself could tell I had a lighter step by now.

I'll admit we may have moved too fast, but at time that didn't register, a spark had formed and it was going to try it's damned hardest to survive.

~Fin chapter tres

ExTRA So what up with Harry's mood swing?

Harry Osborn, the son of the great entrepreneur Norman Osborn, the heir of Oscorp and all its successful endeavors, was at a loss. He couldn't seem to get Adeline out of his head. The banter with her brother, the possible concern she displayed, her sheepish smile, and her light laugh. Why couldn't he stop thinking about her? She didn't seem special, and her outfits were still putrid, heck they had only talked twice and yet he couldn't stop thinking about her. He entered Oscorp with a frown as he thought of her subtle features, only to see her awkwardly standing around the Oscorp lobby with a scowl.

She sure looks prettier with a smile.

Harry ignored his thoughts, approaching her, and talking to her instead. A jealousy filled him when she explained her reason for being at Oscorp to bring dinner to a friend. He was blown away by her, did he honestly not notice her kind nature the first time they met? Why was he ever mean to her in the first place? Her clothes? Since when had he become so materialistic? Anyways she wasn't wearing slippers and sweatpants today, instead wearing something much more professional and fitting. It was in that split second that he decided to try to be nice to her.

And didn't he already toy with a maybe? Why didn't he just go for it.

A/N I hope you enjoyed it, we can finally get to some more actual relationship things! Now tell me honestly, are they moving too fast? Because I wrote the first chapter a month ago and just wrote chapters 2 and 3, I'm worried the month gap could've changed their relationship or characterizations, so please tell me if that's happened. Anywayssss hope this chapter was good, and get excited for the next one too! Soon I'll be writing about my favorite part so get excited for that! I also might toy with diff POVs, I've had fun with the extras and I feel like sometimes it may be better to write in 3rd. We'll see what happens…

ALSO, I have no excuse for not uploading like, literally this chapter was ready so I'm entirely sorry I'm horrendous with these things and I hope you can deal with me :/

Toodles!
