Mary Jane was watching the fight for the whole time. She saw a blonde woman run into the path of several bullets when she heard Harry moan.
"Oh my god! Harry!" She ran towards him and helped him sit up.
"What-?"
Before he could reply, MJ hugged him.
"I'm so glad you're OK," she whispered. Harry felt slightly stunned, but hugged her back. He remembered the kiss that they had shared. 'Could she still..?' When she let go, Harry stared at her. Mary Jane quickly looked up with regret written all over her face.
"Harry-"
"Yeah?"
"I just want you to know that I gave you that kiss because I was just trying to help you. I don't want to hurt your feelings, but the truth is that I still love Peter."
Harry slowly nodded. He knew it was too good to be true. Although they had broken up two years ago, Harry still had some lingering feelings for her, but now, he realized that she was hopelessly in love with Peter. Harry had learned to accept that fact over the years.
"Are we still friends, Harry?" asked a timid MJ. To her relief, she saw Harry smile.
"Of course, MJ."
"Harry, and about Peter-"
Harry's eyes slightly hardened; he was still mad at Peter for what he had done to his father. MJ noticed Harry's attitude change, and she tried to defend Peter: "Harry, you guys have been best friends for a long time, and Peter didn't steal your father's love. Not only that, but he didn't steal me away from you. In fact, I was the one who became attracted to him. Harry, just please, let the past remain that way: in the past. Harry, Peter would never do any of this intentionally-you should know that." Mary Jane's words slowly entered Harry's mind, and although he didn't want to believe it, he had to accept the cold, hard truth: Mary Jane was in love with Peter, Peter was Spiderman, and his father was the Green Goblin-a mad villain who had murdered several people for his own benefit. Harry quickly stood up, and Mary Jane helped him. He walked on top of his glider and looked back at MJ.
"Harry, where are you going?"
"Home. Look, MJ, I know all of that stuff is true, but I just need some time by myself. I need to sort things out-alone."
Mary Jane nodded, and before Harry flew off, she said, "Just remember, Harry, that if you need help, I'll be there for you, OK?"
Harry gave a curt nod, and with one last glance at his ex-girlfriend, his glider rose into the air and soared away.
"Oh my god! Harry!" She ran towards him and helped him sit up.
