Chapter 6
Felicia looked into the mirror as she was fixing her beautiful long blonde hair. She was going to meet someone at the shelter today so that they can say thank you for her donation, even though it was not necessary. She applied some blush to her cheeks and finished off her look with a pair of nice earrings. She didn't notice Peter walk in behind her, he quickly stopped once he saw her reflection in the mirror. He had to pinch himself to make sure he wasn't dreaming, to him she looked so beautiful. He slowly stepped towards her and wrapped his arms around her waist, startling her slightly but she soon recovered from her shock and give him a grin as she turned around.
"Hi," Felicia said simply, she noticed Peter's collar on his shirt wasn't nice and straight so she fixed it for him, before reaching up and fixing his hair that seemed to be all over the place today. "You need a haircut. " She said simply, causing Peter to laugh, his cheeks growing red in the process.
"Yeah, I will get one later today after you meet this guy. " Felicia smiled at this and gave him a gentle kiss on the cheek.
"Good It's my birthday tomorrow and I want you looking good for when you take me out. Like don't get me wrong, I think you look very handsome right now, I just miss the shorter hair. " Felicia went to their bed and picked up her bag from it and wrapped her arm around Peter's. She gave him a sweet smile. "Shall we go, Spider-Man?"
"Yes, we shall Black Cat. " Peter smiled and led her out of the room and soon they were out of the building, in the warm summer heat of New York.
Oscorp
"What do you mean it is not ready for testing?" Harry questioned one of his board members. They were bringing up their objections to what Harry was doing with Smythe and the Spider-Slayers. "I have seen them myself and we have a working prototype. So tell me why shouldn't we test them?"
The man Harry was questioning stared at Harry with a strong glare, he couldn't believe how this young man was talking to him like a piece of meat. "Harry..." The man started but was cut off by Harry's angry reply. "It's Mr. Osborn to you. " The man just shook his head but continued with what he wanted to say. "Mr. Osborn, you may have a working prototype and they may be great use against the real criminals of this city, but why do you insist on hunting Spider-Man? The city loves him, he has saved many people, so why would we want to take him out of the equation when he does good for this city?"
Harry glared at the man, his eyes full of anger at the mention of the wall crawlers' name. He banged his hand on the conference table startling everyone sitting around it. They didn't notice Harry's eyes turn black and his veins begin to turn black as well. "Mr. Standish, get out of my building, you are fired!" Harry glared at the man until he stood up and walked out of the room. He turned towards the window and saw that he was led away by some of his CRS team, who now took up the security for Oscorp. He smiled slightly and motioned for one of the guards to come into the room. The guard walked over to Harry in gear similar to what Sable international wore but the colors were different, this gear was a dark green, with black bulletproof vests and helmets.
"Mr. Osborn, how may I be of assistance Sir?. "
"I would like you to go get Alastair Smythe from the lab for me, please. " The security guard went to turn and walk away but Harry stopped him. "After you do that, I want you and your team to go down to the mayor's office and get him to give you permission to patrol the streets. Its time we hunt down the bug and his girlfriend. " The guard nodded and went to do his tasks. Harry stood there glaring at everyone around the table until Alastair showed up. "Ah Mr. Smythe, It is time we launch our Spider-Slayer for its first test. I want the bug caught and brought to me, alive. "
"What about Black Cat sir?" Smythe asked he was excited at the prospect of taking down Spider-Man once and for all.
"Kill her, I don't care," Harry said as the members of the board stared at him in shock. One man stood up and walked out of the room, leaving Harry to smirk at the others. "Does Anyone else want to join Mr. Morgan Michaels and Charles Standish in being unemployed? " No one else stood up. "Good now, where were we?"
F.E.A.S.T
Peter and Felicia walked into the main doors of the shelter to go say hi to some of the homeless people that they knew. They stopped by the man and woman playing chess as usual.
"Who is winning?" Asked Felicia. The 2 older people looked up briefly.
"I am, " Said the woman with a smirk on her face. "He is getting destroyed by me and he can't even deny it. "
"I think you have too much of your meds lady, its messing with your memory as always. " The guy returned causing Peter and Felicia to laugh.
"Well, guys we will catch you later," Peter said as he led Felicia over to Miles, they spoke to him for about half an hour, and the guy who was supposed to be meeting Felicia didn't show. Felicia sighed and looked at Peter.
"I guess he isn't coming, lets go home." Peter nodded to Felicia's request and they waved goodbye to Miles. They had reached the front door and Peter wrapped his arm around Felicia's shoulder. They stepped out into the heat and were about to walk home but a voice stopped them, making Peter freeze.
"You look so beautiful.. just like your mother." said the man, who smiled as Felicia turned around and stared at him with shock on her face. She felt tears come to her eyes as she stared at the man who looked exactly like her father... the father that is supposed to be dead. She turned and looked up at Peter, who didn't look shocked, he looked more scared. Felicia turned back and watched the man slowly move towards her.
"You stop there right now.. you are supposed to be dead!" Felicia yelled as the tears began to fall down her cheeks. Peter held her tightly, trying to comfort her, she was reacting the way he expected, she deserved to be angry.
"I know I am supposed to be dead but I had to fake my death so that the mob wouldn't go after your mom and you. My plan didn't work since you found yourself working with Hammerhead. I wanted to come back into your life, I really did. When I saw you lying in that hospital bed after you got hurt 3 months ago, I was devastated.
"I have spent years trying to get over your death, it turns out that you weren't dead at all!" Felicia screamed, trying to get out of Peter's arms, she wanted to slap her father in the face but Peter wouldn't let her. "Let me go, Peter!" She continued to yell at him, Peter looked around and saw that they were making a scene. "Felicia you can't hit him, that isn't the way. " Felicia stared at him angrily and saw her father nod at Peter slightly as if they knew each other. "You knew he was alive didn't you?" Felicia was hoping she was wrong.
Peter stared at her, she could see the pain in his eyes as he slowly nodded his head. Felicia finally squirmed out of his grasp and stared at him, a look of betrayal on her face.
"How could you not tell me?" She asked as more tears clouded her eyes. Peter reached up to wipe them but she stepped away from him.
"He made me promise when you were in the hospital. I wanted to tell you but I didn't want to tell you he was alive only for him to never show his face again. I didn't want to get your hopes up. "Peter's eyes pleaded with hers as she saw tears spring to his eyes as well. Sniffing Felicia turned towards her father, "Is this true?" She asked, Walter, nodded with a sad look on his face. Felicia shook her head at the both of them, she felt betrayed by not only her father but also the love of her life.
"I need to be alone for a while. " She said simply as she looked at Peter, he nodded his head and wiped his eyes as he watched her walk away.
"I am sorry Peter," Walter said sincerely, Peter just gave him a nod and then left as well, leaving Walter standing in the same spot for what felt like forever to the older man.
Peter & Felicia's Apartment.
Felicia sat on their bed, crying her heart out. She was angry, depressed, and feeling shitty for leaving Peter there. She knew he was only doing to protect her feelings, and for that, she loved him for but she didn't like the fact he hid something from her. She wiped her eyes and put tissues in the bin beside their bed. As she went to lay down again, she saw the picture on their bedside table. It was a picture of her and Peter, both in costume on top of Avengers Tower. Felicia was curled against his body as he kissed the top of her head as he took the picture. She picked the photo up and kissed it softly with her lips. She smiled softly but was interrupted when the doorbell went. She looked at the clock on her phone and saw it was just after 12 am. She got up and walked towards the door, not caring if she looked hideous, she just wanted to know if Peter was okay or whoever was knocking at their door at this time to leave.
She twisted the doorknob and opened the door to reveal Peter who now had a hair cut and with a dozen roses. She stared at his eyes and he did the same to her. They just continued to look at each other until it got too much for Felicia and she leaped into his arms, hugging him tightly. She let all of the pain of the day out as she cried into his chest. Peter ran his hands down her back in a soothing manner, letting her know he was there for her.
"I am so sorry for my part in this whole thing. I should have told you. " Peter said with sadness in his voice. Felicia looked up at I'm and gave him a watery smile. "You should have bu you know you made a mistake and you are apologizing for it, like a man. I am sorry for leaving you, I just had to be on my own for a while."
Peter wiped some hair out of her face as he gave her a small grin. "Happy Birthday." Felicia smiled at this and pulled him into a deep kiss. They stood in the doorway of their apartment, locked in a deep embrace and not a care in the world. Eventually, they both needed air and broke the kiss.
"I love you so much, Peter Parker," Felicia said softly
"I love you, Felicia Hardy. " Peter said in return.
