A canon-compliant drabble on The Amazing Spider-Man #51.


Gwen and Harry were sat in a booth, Mary Jane, of course, was on the dance floor. A motor roared by outside, grabbing Mary Jane's attention. "Look! There's Peter Parker!" Peter didn't see her and rode past them. "... And just when I can use those way-out wheels of his for a luscious lift home!" she complained.

"That's the breaks, M.J! But don't despair... Harry and I can drop you off when we leave!" Gwen replied, grinning softly at M.J.

Mary Jane raised her finger to point to Gwen. "I know why you're smiling, Gwen! It bugs you when I'm alone with Petey...doesn't it?"

Harry smirked confidently at Mary Jane. "In case you haven't noticed, lady...Gwen is my date!"

"Sure, because Mr. P. didn't ask her first!" Mary Jane retorted.

"Good ol' Mary Jane! Anything for a laugh, eh?" Harry laughed lightly.

M.J turned away from them, shooting a smirk over her shoulder towards Gwen. "Do you think I'm being funny, Gwendolyne?"

Gwen smiled at Mary Jane. She wasn't exactly wrong. "I think...perhaps it's time we were getting home!"
