The Parker luck was a mysterious thing. Something presumably bad would happen and ultimately turn out for the better. At this moment, Peter had no idea how his luck was going to turn around.

It started with Sam ingesting the vial's contents from his pocket, Powerman discovering what it is, being accused of being addicted to over the counter medication and Sam breaking in saying he was somehow related to some space alien cow. He didn't know how much farther it would be before his luck would turn around.

This was not that moment.

At this moment he was lip locked with one of the scariest women he had ever met. Squirrel Girl.

Out of every hero in the world, he had to be the one to kiss her. Granted, it was better than kissing Wolverine or The Thing... Or God forbid Goblin or Venom. He shuddered as he envisioned himself being chased by some very angry and very dangerous people.

Flipping back to reality he quickly pushed away from hazel flavored lips. Squirrel Girl blinked in confusion. He prepared for a fight when she asked, "What happened to the bottom of your mask? And why do you taste like you put turmeric in tea?"

"Excuse me?" He squeaked. While the first question was valid with the bottom half of his mask ripped to ribbons after an interesting run in with Sabertooth who was hunting Wolverine who was looking for a mutant who was going to Stark towers for an interview.

"Really bitter. I would have thought you would have been sweeter."

"At least I'm not the one who tastes like nuts!"

"You have a problem with nuts?! At least I taste good!"

"Are you insane?!" Spiderman yelled referring to how she described herself. It sounded just plain dirty. Something more along the lines of what Deadpool would say. She narrowed her eyes at his words. A dangerous spark appeared in her eyes as she smirked devilishly.

That only led to him being pounced on and pulled into an interesting... Face battle. Tongue and teeth clashed as hormones seemed to take over. There were cat calls and hoots. People cheering and photos snapping. Some people were yelling gross and leaving as soon as they could. At least one kid was recording this for the Internet. A minute passed, give or take a few seconds when he was pulled back. He stumbled a few steps, White Tiger's hand possessively on his shoulder. Her eyes narrowed.

Squirrel Girl looked at him one last time with a grin.

"You know, you really are an acquired taste."

"What's that supposed to mean?" White Tiger hissed. Squirrel Girl stared at the two of them before covering her mouth."

"Oh my gosh! You two are a thing!" she slurred ever so slightly.

"Say what?!" White Tiger squeaked. Squirrel Girl ran over grabbing White Tiger's hands. Her grip not quite as strong as it could have been despite obvious attempts at a firm grasp.

"Don't you worry your pretty little head. I'll leave you and your beau alone."

"What are you talking about? And why were you kissing him?"

"Well, he said it was bad that I tasted like nuts. So I was trying to show him it was a good thing. Though the tea turmeric combination isn't bad either. Fits the whole weird boy in spandex with webs slinging everywhere."

With that she disappeared towards Central Park. Given the screaming in the distance, she had just run into Deadpool. Poor bastard.

Though not as poor as Spiderman as he was being led away by an angry White Tiger. He could feel his little fangs (as Luke and Sam liked to call them) swell with venom. Why did he have to have such rotten luck?

His thoughts kept him distracted as he was led away by White Tiger under the cat calls from the crowd and Jamison's big mouthed ranting from the jumbotron above. When he had finally brought himself back to reality, he was in an alley being yelled at by his female teammate. He really hated his luck.

"Are you even listening to me?!" White Tiger growled. Spiderman threw his hands in the air defensively keeping them between him and the vicious White Tiger in front of him.

"I am! Look it's not like I wanted to kiss her! It was an accident."

"Accident doesn't look like you eating her face," she hissed. She looked back at the end of the alley. No one was looking and SHIELD had already roped off the area. She tore her mask off to look Spiderman in the eye (lens). Grudgingly he removed his torn mask. He was going to have to sew it back together before Tony saw it. That man was rather insistent that his team where something other than spandex. And he seemed to be the guinea pig. Powerman was already indestructible. Iron Fist was in top form and had wicked skills. Nova was protected by alien mumbo jumbo. And White Tiger was a fierce no nonsense girl who just didn't seem to get along with him outside a professional level.

"Not my fault. She was the one who jumped me!"

"Ugh. Why would she even want to kiss you?"

"Hey! Who wouldn't want to kiss this?" he asked gesturing to his well trimmed body from his time fighting and swinging across the sky.

"Who would want to kiss your geeky self?" she shot back. Peter's face flushed slightly, now wishing he had kept his ruined mask on to hide some of his embarrassment.

"Hey! I'll have you know smart is the new sexy."

"Oh really? Then why does Danny get more dates than you?"

"Mysterious is always in style," Spiderman shrugged, "And that's why I'm so popular."

"You? Popular? Get over it Web head. And the only thing mysterious about you is where you picked up your habit."

"My what?"

"Your addiction. Though you have mellowed a bit."

"You aren't still on that are you?"

"It's a danger not only to the team but to yourself. And I'm not going to standby while you poison yourself."

"I am not poisoning myself," he snapped. He wasn't poisoning anybody. Maybe drug them but not poison them, thinking back to Nova and the session with Squirrel Girl. She was acting a bit drunk, similar to how Powerman described Nova when he had a full shot's worth of the stuff.

"The way you've been acting and the missing medicine say otherwise."

Spiderman groaned.

"I'm not doing drugs. The medicine was expired so we tossed it out. It wasn't worth getting more sick on expired medicine."

"Oh yeah? Then what was the thing Sam drank?" she questioned.

"Nothing important."

"Spidey!"

"No-"

"Calm-"

"I'm leaving-"

"-down!"

It was at that time White Tiger tripped on a bottle. She flew forward landing on Spiderman. There lips locked, both mouths open as they were unprepared. White Tiger's tongue slipped into his mouth, scrapping the sensitive protrusions on the roof of his mouth. He shuddered as he held back his unwelcome fluid. White Tiger grabbed his shoulders. Her eyes fighting between wide and narrowed, both studying and surprised.

"What was that?"

Peter looked away for a moment. First Powerman, then Nova, and now it looked like White Tiger. He was a terrible liar anyway.

"What was what?"

That did not stop him from trying. White Tiger's eyes finally settled on narrowed. In a flash she forced her pointer and middle finger in his mouth pushing on the roof of his mouth. He could feel the strain build in his mouth.

"That."

Everything after that happened to fast. His protrusions latched into her skin, piercing both fingers. She yelped as Spiderman both relaxed and freaked out. His body accepting the release normally, freaking out because it had entered White Tiger. It didn't last long. When he finished only a moment later, he released and she yanked her fingers out. An odd tingly numbness began to spread from her hand, up her arms into the rest of her body.

"What was that?" she questioned. She felt... off. Not bad just a little off. It was like she was floating. Was this what floating felt like? It was wonderful. No wonder Nova liked it so much.

"Don't freak out," Spiderman said quietly. SHIELD agents passed the alley unaware. Newbies from the sound of it. The clean up crew must have arrived. She felt her vision change causing her to panic for a moment. It was only when she looked back at Spiderman did she realize she even looked away, and that he had put both their masks on for them. Huh. Why didn't she feel that?

"Let's get you to a safe place. I'll explain once we get there."

White Tiger didn't say anything as he grabbed her and began their swinging through the sky. She couldn't help but notice she didn't feel the hairy drops, nor the warm arms that she knew were encircled around her body. She was kind of surprised that she missed that feeling. But she wasn't too focused on that. She watched the way they traveled and enjoyed taking in the view that must have been seen hundreds of times by birds, heroes, villains and fliers in general. It was something she never thought she would ever get tired of.

So while her tongue burned with questions, she remained silent, drinking in the journey as she awaited answers at their destination.

Um... As you can tell I am trying to get into the romance part of the challenge and failing in the most interesting of manners. Oh well. Romance was never my forte anyway.

Please review. It sparks my inspiration and fuels the plot bunnies.
