The Alien Symbiote Made Me Do It

Chapter 10: Cheating Heart

Peter's POV

One thing never left my mind since Flash brutal bullying about a while ago. It wasn't worry that he was going to do it again, since Eddie made it clear Flash was going to end up in the hospital if he tried hurting me like that anymore, but more like what he said.

He called me 'Eddie's bitch'. And I know I shouldn't let it get to me, but I can't help but to let it eat at me. I know in my and Eddie's relationship, it's obvious I'm the 'submissive' one. I'm smaller, shorter, and, I will admit, not as masculine as Eddie, but that didn't mean I was less of a man myself. I can be dominating and take control, but how the hell could I prove that to people when they look at me and Eddie together? It's clear that, between us, I really do look like the 'girl', and I hate it!

: Please stop brooding and stressing over this matter, it's unpleasant and we don't like it: I hear the symbiote's voice say.

"Deal with it! I can't help what I'm feeling! It's not like I can try to forget about this!" I snap back at it. That shut it up. I sighed and turned over on my side on my bed. It wasn't just the stress of being 'Eddie's bitch' that got to me, but the symbiote that I was attached to had told me just earlier today that I only had a week left before the bond became permanent. I was too busy daydreaming about Eddie and dealing with being Spiderman and schoolwork that I've completely put off thinking about bonding to it for life. My head was full of endless worries and questions that it began to hurt.

Deciding that maybe some fresh air was needed to clear my head, I dawn my mask and head out the window, swinging through the city. Hopefully this will help.

Eddie's POV

I collapsed on my bed stomach down as I tried to catch my breath. Beads of sweat rolled down my body, my heart pounded, and satisfaction healed my lustful desires from the recent activity I just performed. I'll give you a hint to what I was doing: I was staring at the picture on my phone of Peter modeling on my bike, I was stark naked in my apartment bedroom, and I was imagining Peter underneath me, as naked as I was, begging me for more. Enough said.

This was beginning to get irritating. That's the seventh time today I had to do that. Not like I don't enjoy it, but I'd rather have the activity that would really satisfy my lustful needs. But Peter wasn't ready for that yet. I wanted to be patient and to understand that he's scared since it's his first time, but if he knows we both love each other and if he wants it as bad as I do, why wait any longer? We've certainly known each other long enough and have been dating for a while, about a month. I know it doesn't seem long, but if you're only pleasuring yourself when your lover is right there in front of you to grab at but isn't ready, it feels like a lifetime.

I groan as I wipe off the sweat clinging to my body as I hear my phone buzzing on the nightstand next to the bed. I opened it up and was welcomed by the sweetest voice a man could ever hear.

"Hey, babe! How's it going?" I hear Peter's voice say. I feel a smile tug on my lips.

"Going good. How about you?" I asked.

"Fine. Wanna meet at my place in a few? We'll have a little movie date." He suggested. I smiled joyfully.

"Sounds great!" I said, suddenly I hear cars honking in the background and grew curious.

"Hey, where are you?" I asked, knowing he certainly couldn't be home.

"Oh, just going out for a nightly patrol, but I'm heading home now. I'll see you there!" he said before he hung up. I grinned widely as I quickly put on some clothes, ran my fingers through my dampened hair to get it to spike up again, grabbed my keys and headed down to my motorcycle to meet up with Peter.

Peter's POV

The cool night air of New York while flipping and spinning through it in a flying, acrobatic manner can really lighten my spirits, but hearing the love of my life's voice when I was brooding made it even better. Quickly forgetting my sour mood, I stashed my cell phone in my pocket and took off.

I swung from building to building, getting closer to my neighborhood when a familiar voice stopped me.

"Well, well, I do believe it's Spiderman." It purred, making shivers run down my spine. I was hanging upside down from a street light when I froze. I look around to see where she was, but couldn't pin her out in the nightly atmosphere, before her green eyes were suddenly inches from mine. I gasped at the surprise, but since she didn't attack me, I couldn't sense it first.

"Black Cat." I whisper. I hear her giggle.

"Where have you been stud?" she asked teasingly. I noticed she was hanging from the same street light I was, upside down as well too.

"I…uh…wait a minute! You're a thief! I shouldn't be talking to you!" I snap, finally noticing reality of what she tried to do a while back. She laughed again.

"Oh come on, hot stuff," she said as she twirled around me slowly, making the long chord she was hanging from and my web twirl together, "That's not how you acted when we first met, now did you? And besides, I didn't do anything wrong, I didn't steal that life form." She purred.

"You tried to steal it!" I point out.

"Exactly, tried, but I didn't, so I'm not guilty." She whispered. I gulp. This situation and her closeness were really making me uncomfortable. I was only attracted to Eddie, and she was much too close for my taste. For God's sake, I had a boyfriend!

"So, why exactly are you here for?" I asked. She smiled very catlike.

"Oh, like I can really resist a catch like you. I think I'm all caught up in your little web, Spidey~" she purred as I felt her running a teasing finger up and down my chest. I sucked in a breath and tried to get out of there.

"I already have someone!" I blurt out before she came any closer. She lifted up an eyebrow quizzically.

"Oh, really? You sure didn't act like you had someone when we played together, did you? And here I thought you were all mine. It's not nice to lead a girl on like that, you know." She grinned.

"Sorry, but I'm deeply in love with him and only him, sorry if I gave you the wrong message." I said. She snorted a little.

"It's another guy, huh? How cute! Tell me, does he give you that wild and amazing spark? Because if he doesn't, perhaps you need to set your eyes on someone else, like me." She purred before she acted quicker than expected. I felt her grabbed my head, lift down my mask, and kiss me while we were upside down. I gasped and tried to pull away, but she was much stronger than she looked.

This was all wrong! No, no it didn't feel right! It didn't feel anything like Eddie's kisses! I told her I was with someone! So why is she doing this?!

I knew I had to rip her painfully away from me to do so, but I just couldn't. I went by my code of honor as a real man that I would never hurt a woman no matter what.

Oh no, please God, don't tell me I'm seeing what I think I'm seeing! Not him, not now!

Eddie was staring at us a few yards away. Underneath his helmet I could make out his broadened eyes and gaping mouth. It seemed like he was in shock for a minute before he's expression turned into a mix between rage, betrayal and deep hurt. He glared at me deathly and shook his head, tears forming into his eyes as he roared his motorcycle to life and turned sharply around, speeding down the street.

Something inside me snapped that moment. I didn't care if I had hurt Black Cat, because I ripped myself from her and swung as fast as I could to Eddie in hopes of stopping him so I could explain. No, no I couldn't lose him!

Eddie's POV

I can't believe I loved or trusted that backstabbing, heart-breaking son of a…..Gah!

How could he do this?! He told me he loved me! Hell, he and I screamed our love out for everyone to hear! I gave him all of my love and this is what he does! He cheats on me behind my back and breaks my heart! I can't believe I was so stupid! How the hell could he hurt me like this?! Why?!...I…I thought he loved me!

The tears were rolling down my face and stuck uncomfortably at the rim of my helmet, but I could care less. It was a little hard for me to see the road, but it didn't matter if I crashed. The pain I felt in my heart was so overbearing. My shoulders shake uncontrollably as I sob. I lifted up my visor with a trembling hand as I tried to wipe away the tears as much as possible. Suddenly, I hear a voice behind me.

"Eddie! Wait! It's not what you think! Please, stop!" Peter's voice called. It felt like heat was brewing up like lava inside me. I never felt angrier.

"Go away! I never want to see you again! I can't believe I ever loved you!" I screamed on the top of my lungs as I tried to speed up, not looking back.

"Eddie, I swear! It's not what you think it is! Please, let me explain!" he cried out, sounding upset.

"There's nothing to explain! You lied to me when you said you loved me! All this time you've been toying with my emotions! Quit following me!" I shouted, another painful sob tearing through my body. Suddenly, a giant web was flung over the road. Before I could pull for a screeching stop, the wheels of my motorcycle got mixed in with the web, making me stop forcibly as it stuck to the road. I snarled, looking up at my ex-boyfriend in his hero outfit. I ripped the helmet off my head, tears still running down my face, and glared at him.

"Let me go! Now!" I demanded. Peter sighed as he jumped down, keeping his head lowered.

"I will, but you have to let me explain! Please?" he begged. I growled in my throat, but sighed and crossed my arms.

"Fine, but I don't think there is any excuse that can change what I saw!" I shout. He sighed sadly.

"Eddie, I swear, she was the one coming on to me! If I've known she was going to do that, I would've gotten away as far as I could!" he said. I scuff.

"Why didn't you do that before she kissed you?! And who the hell is that woman anyway!" I demanded to know. He took in a breath.

"Her name is Black Cat. Remember? I told you about her. She was the one who tried to steal the life form but I stopped her. And….I don't know if she's guilty of anything else but I don't have proof she's a true criminal or her true identity….really, I don't know what she is! But we've made conversation before and she got the hots for me. But I swear I told her I was with you! I told her how much I was in love with you and she still kissed me! I swear it wasn't any of my doing!" he cried. I snarled.

"You two were kissing for an awfully long time! How come you didn't just push her away?!" I asked.

"You've known me for all our lives! You know that I can't hurt a girl no matter what! I wasn't raised that way! But I truly did want to get away from her! Nothing about that kiss felt right!...Nothing like yours, at all! You…when I kiss you, it feels so amazing and enlightening, and I felt nothing with her. Bro, I love you, so freaking much. And I can't lose you!" I could tell he was getting upset, but that still didn't mend my broken heart. I felt so hurt and confused. I didn't know who to trust. I still felt so angry. I sigh as tears run down my face more.

"I don't know, bro. I really don't." I whispered as I turned away a bit.

Peter's POV

I wanted to scream in agony I felt. The pain of losing Eddie was too unbearable. I couldn't let that happen! I'll do whatever it takes to earn his trust again! Out of options, I run to him. I embrace him close. Luckily the street we were on was abandoned, no one saw us. I lifted up my mask a bit to kiss him with all the passion and love I had. He wasn't fighting me, but he wasn't loving on me back either.

"Eddie, whatever you want, anything you want me to do for you, I'll do it. I'll do anything for you. I love you, only you…..You believe me, don't you?" I asked softly. He looked at me sadly for what seemed like a long while, then sighed.

"…Yes, I do. Okay,…..I'll let this go. But I swear to God, Pete, if I catch you with someone else like that again, no more chances!" he said firmly and as cold as stone. But I didn't care, I still had Eddie. I smiled and kissed him again. My heart lifted with joy when I finally feel him smile around my lips and kiss me back. We pulled back after a little bit of making out.

"I love you." I whisper. He grinned.

"I know. I love you too." He said.

"So, want meet me back at my place still?" I asked. He smiled.

"Sure. I'll follow you there." He said. I grinned and was about ready to take off before he stopped me.

Eddie's POV

I no longer felt angry or hurt. I was still a bit shaken from the whole thing, but I figured it was something I would get over soon. Besides, just by the tone in his voice convinced me he was telling the truth, and that he really did love me. I've known him all my life also, so I really should trust him. That's what lovers do. I can't let sudden rage blind my judgment. Even so, when I heard what he was willing to do for me, I couldn't help but to take a little advantage of that.

"Did you say you would do anything for me?" I asked. He nodded and I smiled like a pervert.

"Well, would that include, oh, I don't know, maybe getting you into bed sometime really soon?" I asked innocently. He gave me a playful look and chuckled.

"Okay, I figured I've made you wait long enough." He said.

Yes! Victory!
