A/N What's up, guys? I'm back with the twentieth-fourth chapter of the Peter and MJ one-shots series. First of all, I want to apologize to you guys for not updating because I've been busy with my studies stuff and it's my final year in college. And second, I want to thank you guys for favouriting and the follows because that's what allows me to keep going with the amazing stories like this. Shoutout to Heinor Lopez, who made another request in the reviews section. In this chapter, Peter sings a song to MJ and this might be the best thing that MJ would ask for. So, sit back and enjoy the chapter.
I don't own the characters and the song. All of the characters belong to the Marvel Cinematic Universe and the song's lyrics belong to the artist Foreigner.
Chapter 24: The Song
Peter Parker and his girlfriend MJ had been dating for a while now and Peter has yet to sing a song to her. Peter isn't the type of person who would sing a song. One day, Peter was walking in the hallway humming to the song I Want to Know What Love is by the artist Foreigner. And while he was putting away his earphones, a pair of hands covers his eyes.
"Guess who?" a familiar girl's voice asked.
"Is it my girlfriend MJ?" he asked.
"Oh, my gosh! How did you know it was me?" she said as she removed her hands.
"I can tell by your voice," said Peter.
Peter turns around and MJ was standing in front of him, blushing.
"Hey," he greeted as he kissed her.
"Hi," she responded as she pulled away.
"How are you?" Peter asked.
"I'm good. What about you?" said MJ.
"I'm doing good," he said as he turned back around to put away his iPod nano in his locker.
"What were you humming to?" she asked.
"It's just a song that I can't get out of my head," he answered.
"Really? Is it interesting?" asked MJ.
"Just a little bit. Nothing really major about it," Peter responded.
"May I listen to it?" she asked.
"Later. But I can sing it to you if you want," he answered.
"You can sing? I never heard you sing," said MJ.
"Want to hang out at my apartment after school today? I can sing it to you and you may let me know what you think of it," Peter suggested.
"I'd love to. I am always welcome to your apartment anytime," she said.
"Cool, I'll see you later," he said as he kissed her.
"I'll see you later then," she said as she pulled away.
A couple of hours later, the final school bell rings and the students went to their lockers to get their backpacks. Peter gets his backpack from his locker and walks to find MJ.
"Hey," he greeted her.
"Hey," she responded back to him.
"You ready to go?" he asked.
"Yeah. Let's go," she answered.
Peter and MJ walk out of the school building and held hands. They walk to Peter's apartment and Peter unlocked the door with his keys and they walk to the elevator. The elevator stops at the floor and Peter and MJ step out and walk to Peter's suite and Peter unlocks the front door and walks in as Peter and MJ both take off their shoes.
"Hey, May!" Peter greeted.
"Hey. How was school today?" May asked.
"It was okay. And May, MJ's here too," Peter responded.
"MJ! It's nice to see you again!" May greeted and hugged MJ.
"You too, Ms. Parker. I'm gonna be here for a while," said MJ as she lets go of the hug.
Peter and MJ walk to Peter's bedroom and they put down their backpacks on the floor and Peter picks up a guitar.
"Are you gonna sing the song you were humming to today?" MJ asked.
"I am. And let me know what you think," Peter answered.
"I've gotta take a little time," he started.
"A little time to think things over
I better read between the lines
In case I need it when I'm older
Now this mountain I must climb
Feels like the world upon my shoulders
Through the clouds I see love shine
It keeps me warm as life grows colder
In my life there's been heartache and pain
I don't know if I can face it again
Can't stop now, I've traveled so far
To change this lonely life
I wanna know what love is
I want you to show me
I wanna feel what love is
I know you can show me
I'm gonna take a little time
A little time to look around me
I've got nowhere left to hide
It looks like love has finally found me
In my life there's been heartache and pain
I don't know if I can face it again
Can't stop now, I've traveled so far
To change this lonely life
I wanna know what love is
I want you to show me
I wanna feel what love is
I know you can show me
I wanna know what love is
I want you to show me
(And I wanna feel) I wanna feel what love is
(I know) I know you can show me," Peter stops singing and stops playing guitar briefly before looking up to see MJ in tears and Peter smiles before continuing.
"I wanna know what love is
(Love that you feel inside) I want you to show me
(And I'm feelin' so much love) I wanna feel what love is
(No, you just can't hide) I know you can show me
I wanna know what love is
(Let's talk about love) I want you to show me
(I wanna feel it) I wanna feel what love is (I wanna feel it, too)
(And I know, and I know) I know you can show me
I wanna know what love is (I wanna know)
I want you to show me (I wanna know, I wanna know, I wanna know)
I want to feel what love is," he finished.
Peter puts down the guitar and walks over to his crying girlfriend.
"Hey. The song's over," he reminded her.
"That... that was so beautiful," she said through her tears.
"I was humming to this song today and I thought about singing it to you," said Peter as he hugged her.
MJ buries her face on Peter's shoulder and cried.
"I love you MJ," said Peter.
"I... I love you too Peter, said MJ as she sniffled.
Peter then pulls MJ in for a kiss. And MJ realized that this was the best day she had asked for.
And that's the end of the chapter for now. So, what did you guys think? I googled the song and I thought about that I should take a listen to it. Anyway, you guys know what to do. Make sure you drop those reviews and I'm gonna be taking more requests.
