~~~~Mary Jane POV~~~~


Mary Jane Watson was the type of girl that could get any guy that she wanted.

She, in essence, was a beautiful person, both inside and out. She was the most popular girl

in her high school, hiding her horrible home life with a sunny

smile. She also was never in love. Flash was her boyfriend because it made sense.

For the first time in her life, Mary Jane Watson could not get the guy she mas madly,

crazy in love with and had no idea why. It wasn't because she was egotistical and thought

she was so great. The thing was she knew that he was as madly and crazy in love with

her as she was with him.

She, in truth, never thought she could fall for Peter Parker. He was the class nerd,

science geek in high school. She lived next store to him for for 12 years and never gave

(A/N I am assuming they are 18 when the movie took place)

him a second glance. At some point, she was even in love with Spiderman.

It hit her that Peter was it, when she was about to fall off the bridge and the only

thing she could think of was how much she would miss Peter. How much she wished he was here,

to make her feel safe and protected. He made her feel perfect. Like he was.

Now, he rejected her. She had been in a funk for the last week,

going to classes and work and auditions that she hadn't been getting, dreaming

Peter would realize this was wrong and tell her how much she missed her and loved her and

couldn't live wihout her. She could't focus, barely slept and was lost 3 pounds.

The thing that made the whole thing worse, was she know he loved her.

He loved her since they were 6. So, finally, when she came to her senses, he rejects her,

and walks away.


They were meant-to-be. Like the fairy tales. And he was good.

He wasn't a ass like her father. He was kind, and gentle, and sweet, smart,

funny, loving, caring and not hard on the eyes.

Why was he doing this ?. Another girl. The though alone made her ill.

There couldn't be. He loved her to much to see another girl, and the way he looked at her.

No, he loved her.

So, why ???? It is so stupid. We should be together.

On instinct, she picked up the phone and dialed his number.

She did it alot this week, hanging up the phone by the 6th digit. This time, on sheer

determination, she got though as the phone rang.

"Hello"

Her words got caught in her throat.

"Hello...who is it?."

God she loved him.

"MJ, is that you ?."

How did he know ?. Still unable to speak, to scared to break the only connection she

had had with him in a week.

"MJ, I'm sorry. God, you know how much I...." and his voice trailed off.

Her heart skipped a beat. He was going to say love. In spite of everything,

she wanted to dance and scream and jump for joy.

"MJ, please say something."

She said the only thing she could without bursting into tears.

"I love you", and hung up the phone. And thats when she let the tears fall.


~~~~~~~~~~~~Peter POV~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Peter Parker stared at the phone and wanted to bash himself in the head with it.

Her "I love you" sent stabs to his heart. He had been waiting 12 years for this.

For her to have one ounce of the love he had for her, and now that she had it, maybe

more then him he throw's it

out like yesterdays trash. Being Spiderman would not kill him, this would.

Don't do this Peter. Don't have your resolve taken away. She needs this.

This is the the only way to keep her safe.

Anyway, we have another pressing matter at hand.

Harry, remember. Your best friend. The guy who thinks of you as the only family he has left,

at the same time gunning for your life.What he does find out ? What if ??

He can't tell Harry who his dad was and can't tell him he was Spiderman, even for his life.

What was he supposed to do ?.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Mary Jane POV~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After the tears finished, she decided that she had to take a walk, not before deciding

once key fact. She was not going to sit and cry for him. Mary Jane Watson, she reminded

herself, was a fighter. She made a promise, at that moment that she was going to get

Peter Parker. She would not let anyone steal him from her. He was it. She knew

that without a doubt. She smiled to herself, for the first time a week. She was

going to be with Peter Parker, and if she had to fight for him, she would. It then hit

her she had walked, and has no idea where she was, only it was a dark alley.

Hurrying out, she realized her path was being blocked.

"Excuse me"

When she looked, she saw the man and the sick smile on his face, and realized she was

in deep trouble.

"Your not goin' anywhere".



~~~~~~~~~~~~Peter POV~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

He was doing his normal rounds in the city when he heard the scream. Knowing it

was MJ, he targeted it and went down to see what had happened. In the shadows of the alley

he saw her blocking off a guy who was trying to take her clothing off. Anger swept over

him and he quickly rushed the guy.

"Hey buddy. Didn't your mother never teach no no means no ?."

"I'm going to kill you Spiderfreak"

"Now, come on, no need for that."

With that, Peter wrapped him in web and picked her up.

"Home?"

'Yeah', and they were off.

He dropped her on her off on his roof. As he turned to go she said,

"You know, I don't think I ever thanked you."

"For what ?.'

She laughed. God, she had a beautiful laugh. Just being near her took his breath away.

"For keeping me alive."

"No problem MJ...........I am your."

"Friendly Neighborhood Spiderman. I know."

"Are you ok ?."

"Yeah, Tiger. I'm........"

Where did that come from ? She called Peter. Peter......wait.

She then realized he was on ledge. Using a guess, she called out.

"Peter."

And he stopped.

So, what do you all think ???

I had this idea to write a fic cause I had it in my head after I saw the movie.

I was going to make it a standalone, but at the last minute, realized I could got

places with it, so I am making it a series.

Please read and review. Feedback always gets my juices flowing.
