A/N: Warning! There will be some extremely light smut in this! Like no clothes are even taken off but I just felt the need to warn you all regardless.
"Now today in class we will start reading Romeo and Juliette." The teacher says and most of the kids groan, Peter included while you smiled. "Your assignment is to read the first two scenes by next week and then we will have a discussion in class on it." The bell rang. "Class dismissed."
"Ugh I can't believe we have to read that sappy romance play in class." Ned complains to Peter as the two walk to his locker.
An announcement came on over the speaker, reminding everyone that the Halloween ball was coming up so they should find their dates and get their tickets soon.
"Yeah I know right. So lame." Peter says and rolls his eyes.
"Hey Pete!" You say and come up to him and hug him. "Aren't you so excited to read my favorite play in class!"
"Yeah I'm totally psyched!" Peter says enthusiastically.
"But you just said-" Ned starts then Peter punches him in the arm to quiet him. "Ow..." Ned groans. "Spider strength dude that hurt a ton." He whimpers and Peter immediately gets an apologetic look on his face.
"Sorry dude. Sometimes I don't know my own strength." Peter says and giggles a bit. Then he turns to you. "Can I talk to you in private for a minute?" He asks and you nod.
The two of you make your way to the basement workshop. Class would be starting soon so no one was down there.
"What's up?" You ask him and he gives you a worried look.
"Tony came to see me last night." Peter says. "He told me how you and Steve used to be pretty close before the Civil War."
"Yeah." You say and smile a bit. "He was like a second father figure to me. What does that have to do with anything?"
"Well, he's a war criminal now. So if you're still talking to him or helping him out in any way...Tony could arrest you." Peter says and your breath hitches. "You haven't been talking to him have you?" You shook your head and Peter pulled you into a hug. "Thank goodness."
"Does Tony really want to arrest me?" You ask and look at Peter with a worried expression. He smiles.
"No you're fine. He only would have arrested you if you did something illegal like talk to Steve. But you haven't done anything suspicious like that so he's got nothing to arrest you for. You're in the clear." Peter says and hugs you again.
"Thanks for the warning Peter." You tell him and peck his lips softly.
"Hey anything for my partner in crime." He says and you laugh.
"More like partner in fighting crime." You correct him. "Peter, I know you are lying to me about something though..." Peter looks confused. "You're not really excited to read Romeo and Juliette are you?" You ask him.
"What?" He asks in a high voice. "Why would you say that? It's your favorite play of course I'm stoked to read it in class!"
"Peter?" You state and cross your arms.
"Okay fine I hate Shakespeare." Peter says. "I'd rather be fixing computers not racking my brain trying to figure out what some medieval English guy is talking about in a play."
"I'll tutor you then." You offer and take his hands and swing them a bit.
"Alright. I guess that would make things a bit better." Peter says and smirks.
"And by tutoring I mean actually tutoring...Not, you know, our other study times when we don't study." You mention and wink and Peter wraps his arms around your waist and plants a passionate kiss on you.
Suddenly you two break apart when you hear banging on the wall. You both look up to find a teacher with a metal pipe staring angrily at you and Peter.
"Seriously? In the workshop too!" He exclaims. "I have enough to deal with with kids making out on my front lawn at night now I've got to see it in school too!" You and Peter were frozen. "Go on now! Run along. Before I have to put the hose on you children!" He says and you and Peter scurry out of the workshop.
That afternoon you made your way to an alley on your own. You had told Peter that you had to meet up with Happy for something and that he would kill Peter if he came with you. But really, you came to do something else. You went into the alley and saw a tall, strong blonde man wearing a baseball cap and sunglasses.
"Steve..." You say happily and run over to him and he envelopes you in a big hug.
"How's my fairy princess doing?" He asks.
"Steve!" You whine and punch him in the arm, hating it when he called you that. He laughed and rubbed his arm.
"You can still throw a pretty good punch I see." He says and smiles at you.
"I learned from the best." You say and hug him again. "I've missed you so much."
"I've missed you too kiddo. But you know how dangerous it is for me to see you. If Tony finds out he'll try to lock you up, and I don't want him to take away your freedom." Steve says. You huffed.
"I'd like to see him try." You say and put your hands on your hips. "You and I make our own rules, no one tells us what to do."
"There's a difference between not following restrictive societal rules and acting on your own selfish desires." Steve reminds you. "Now I know these rules that Tony's put in place suck but you need to follow them or else your life will be a lot worse."
"Would it Steve?" You ask him. "My life before I got these powers was pretty damn awful. I'm not going back to doing that again, I won't let some old fart give me a bunch of rules and control me just like my dad did in the past!"
"No one's trying to control you Y/N." Steve says. "Everyone has to follow some rules, or else there'd be no order in the world." You calmed down.
"I make my own rules for myself, based on what I think is right. No one tells me what to do." You tell Steve calmly. "No one owns me."
"And no one should." Steve says.
"Why can't I come run away with you?" You ask Steve and he brings you into a hug.
"Because as much fun as it sounds to your rebellious teenage brain, life in Wakanda is not a life you'd want to live. You need to stay here and help Spider-Man protect these citizens from evil." Steve tells you.
"He is the main reason I haven't tried to follow you back to Wakanda." You tell him and Steve smiles. "I'm his partner. In more ways than one..." You blush and Steve arches an eyebrow.
"Wait a minute? Are you dating the webslinger?" He asks and you bite your lip and drag your foot on the ground a bit.
"Maybe..." You say softly.
"Oh I can't go back to Wakanda then." Steve says. "I've got to stay here and go all over-protective dad on his spider ass!"
"Steve!" You exclaim and he laughs and throws you over his shoulder and spins you around making you laugh.
"I'm just kidding princess." He says and sets you down. "If he did ever try anything on you, I know you'd be able to take him down and defend yourself. Have fun with him. I can tell he's made you very happy during this difficult time."
"He has. Honestly with him I'm the happiest I think I've ever been." You tell Steve honestly and he smiles and gives you a big hug.
"That's wonderful Y/N." He pulls away and starts to leave the alley. "Now don't worry about me. You just go out there and live your life."
"I'll miss you Steve." You tell him.
"I know Y/N. I'll miss you too. But it's safer this way. I don't want to get you in trouble. I'll see you again once this whole thing with Tony blows over." He says and then turns and walks away.
You wiped a few tears from your face and then left the alley a few minutes later. But what you didn't know was that there was an Iron Man suit watching you from the building above the alley. It finished video taping your conversation with Steve and then flew off somewhere.
"Wow, it's been a long day." You tell your boyfriend as you fly him down onto a rooftop to rest. "Who knew there'd be so much crime in NYC in one day." You say and let your wings sit back into your body to rest them.
"Yeah. But now we finally get a break." Peter says and takes off his Spider-Man mask. "And I have a little surprise for you..." Peter says and you take off your mask and arch an eyebrow.
"What are you playing at Parker?" You ask him and he smirks and holds out his hand.
"May I show you? M'lady?" Peter asks in a mock gentleman tone and you take his hand.
He kisses it and you laugh. He pulls you close to him and holds you around your waist as he puts his mask back on and you put yours on as well and he shoots a wall and the two of you swing off. Eventually you come to the Queensborough bridge and you notice something underneath it.
"Close your eyes." Peter instructs and you do so. You feel yourself both land on the ground. "Okay, now open them." Peter says and you open your eyes and gasp.
There was a table, with two chairs and a white table cloth, your favorite food, and two candles. And behind it was a huge web with a message in it that Peter spun that read:
Y/N will you go to the dance with me?
"Oh Peter of course I'll go with you!" You exclaim and throw your arms around him. He laughs and the two of you spin around a bit. "I was wondering when you were going to ask..." You say and blush and the two of you take your masks off.
"Sorry it took so long...I just wanted to do something special for you. And I thought this would be a nice surprise." Peter says and you smile and laugh.
"Well it is." You tell him. "I love it. Now let's eat that food before it gets cold!" You say and grab his hand and drag him towards the table.
About halfway through the meal you notice Peter staring at you adoringly.
"What is it?" You ask him.
"How am I so lucky to have you?" He asks and you roll your eyes.
"Pete..." You whine. "Stop being so cute."
"You really want me to stop?" He asks. You blush.
"No..." You answer softly and he stands up, a smirk playing on his lips and he comes over to stand behind you. "Peter what are you-" You stop when you feel a thin metal chain resting on your chest and Peter clasps it behind you.
"I also got you a present..." He says and smiles shyly at you. "I've been saving up my allowance and for my birthday Mr. Stark gave me some money and...I thought you might like this." Peter says and you tear up when you pick up the little silver heart shaped locket that Peter had given you.
"Oh Peter..." You say and he smiles and tears up a bit too.
"Open it." He instructs and you carefully open it up and let out a small sob and tear up. In one section, there's Peter's spider symbol, and in the other your dragonfly one. "Because no matter what happens, in my heart we'll always be together. And I wanted to give you something that represented that." Peter says and then finds himself pressed up against a wall, with you kissing him deeply.
"Peter Benjamin Parker I love you so much!" You tell him and kiss him again before he can reply.
"I love you too." Peter says and smiles.
"How did I get so lucky to have you?" You ask him and he smiles at you.
"I don't know but whatever force brought you to me I have to thank a million times." Peter says and tears up a bit.
"You are such a sweetheart I love you!" You tell him and hug him again.
The two of you rest like that for awhile. Then you get an idea and bring your lips to his and start to kiss him again, slowly deepening it, until you two were making out. Peter wasn't quite sure what to do at first but eventually he got the hang of it, and soon your tongues were tangling with each other and you ran your hands through his chocolate colored curls and you could feel his erection growing against your thigh. A fun idea popped into your head and you decided to grind yourself against it ever so slightly. You felt him tense up and he looked into your eyes and blushed a bit.
"Did you not like that?" You ask him.
"No no no no I-I liked it! It's just, no one's ever done that to me before." Peter says and blushes a bit and squirms nervously.
"Well it won't be the last Spider-boy." You joke and he blushes more.
"It's Spider-Man Y/N..." Peter reminds you and bites his lip.
"No." You say and shake your head. "But I'll make a man out of you Peter Parker." You whisper into his ear and you smirked as you felt your boyfriend shudder underneath you.
He regarded you with eager, curious eyes and you got a bold idea in your head. And he licked his lips, wondering what this Goddess of a woman in front of him had in mind.
"Have you ever watched porn before Parker?" You ask him and he blushes.
"Once or twice..." He admits. "But not since I've been dating you! Now to get off I think of-" He claps his hand over his mouth to stop himself from talking.
"That time I was topless in your bathroom?" You ask and he blushes and nods. You laugh.
"You're not mad?" He asks.
"No! You're my boyfriend...I want you to think of me in that way sometimes." You tell him and he smiles. "You've never seen a girl topless before in person before me have you?"
"Well there was one time when I was little and first started living with my Aunt and Uncle and I accidentally walked in on my Aunt May after she got out of the shower." Peter says and shudders from the memory. "I had nightmares for over a week and they bought me a lego set to calm me down."
"Awww, poor thing." You tell Peter and kiss his cheek. "But you've never seen a woman you're not related too topless?"
"Nope." Peter says then his eyes widen when he sees you smirk and reach behind you to the clasp of your chest plate.
"Well I'm about to change that Peter Parker." You tell him and you feel him harden again against you and smirk. "In three..." You undid one clasp and his breath hitched. "Two..."
You undid another and his eyes were trained on your chest as he saw the plate loosen. Suddenly he felt something tingling in the back of his head and he grabbed you and moved you out of the way as a blast went by and shot the wall next to the two of you. The magnetic clasps of your chest plate re-did themselves and you both looked and saw Iron Man in front of you.
"Seriously!" Peter exclaims. "You couldn't have waited another minute!" He whined.
"Oh shit were you two about to have horny teenage sex?" Tony asks.
"Well I don't think we were about to have sex..." Peter says and shyly runs a hand through his hair. "But I was about to get a little bit of action."
"Oops. Sorry about being a cock-block kid." Tony apologizes. "And I'm also sorry I'm going to have to arrest your girlfriend." He holds out his hand to you.
"What!?" You both exclaim.
"But I didn't do anything!" You say.
"Yeah she hasn't done anything wrong!" Peter protests.
"Yeah well that's not what one of my suits that I sent to spy on her found today." Tony says and plays the footage of you and Steve's conversation in front of you and Peter.
"Y/N?" Peter turned to you with a heartbroken look on his face. "You told me you weren't talking to him anymore."
"I'm not! I met up with him today to say my goodbyes. After you warned me about what Tony said I told Steve and he said it would be safer if we didn't talk anymore. By I insisted that I meet up with him in person to at least say goodbye..." You say and tear up a bit. "Please believe me?"
"Of course I believe you." Peter says and wipes away one of your tears. "I'll always believe you." He says and kisses the top of your head.
"I'm sorry kid, but I've still got to take her in." Tony tells Peter and he starts to tear up.
"Tony please-" He begs.
"I know, I really don't want to do this but rules are rules." Tony says and suddenly two metal things grab your hands and pin you back against the wall of the bridge.
"Y/N!" Peter runs back to you and tries to pry the restricting metal off of you but it's too strong.
"Pete I'm scared." You tell him and tear up and he wipes away your tears with his gloved hands.
"Don't worry it's gonna be okay. It'll all be okay I promise." Peter tries to reassure you.
"Peter don't make me have to restrain you too." Tony says and you could both hear the crack in his voice.
Suddenly something jumps on Tony from behind and sends him crashing to the ground.
"Steve?" Tony asks.
"Hey." Steve says simply and you smile.
"What the hell are you doing here?" Tony asks.
"Protecting the girl who's like a daughter to me." Steve says. "What about you?" He asks.
"Protecting the boy that's like a son to me." Tony says simply. "And they're both dating?"
"It appears so." Steve says.
"Funny how that worked out." Tony replies.
"Like Romeo and Juliette." Steve says then Tony punches him.
"Hang on I think I've got something that'll work." Peter says and lets out his Spider-drone.
"Okay droney do your thing." Peter says and the drone shoots a laser at your bonds and breaks them open. You watched Steve and Tony fight and immediately knew what was going on.
"He's distracting Tony so I can get away..." You whisper and look at Peter.
"Go." He says and you shake your head no.
"No, no Peter I don't want to leave you." You tell him and tears start to fall from your eyes.
"Y/N I know, I don't want you to leave me either but you have to. If you leave now you'll be free. But if you don't you'll be a prisoner." Peter stresses.
"I don't want to be free if I can't be free with you." You tell Peter. "Before I met you, all I was was free. But I was alone. You've given me friendship, partnership, and love like I've never had before. And I know now that while I was free, I wasn't happy. But now I am. With you. And I wouldn't trade that for anything in the world."
"Fuck why do you have to make this so hard?" Peter says and starts to cry and the two of you hug.
"The more you love someone the harder it is to let them go I guess." You sniffle and Peter looks at you and the two of you share a long, passionate kiss, before pulling apart and resting your foreheads against each other with your noses still crossed. You let your wings come out.
"I'll find you Y/N I promise." Peter says and kisses your lips once more before slowly letting you go.
Your tear filled eyes locked with his as you backed away and then finally turned and flew off into the air. Peter watched you go and sniffled as tears ran down his cheeks as well. Tony finally looked over and noticed you were gone.
"Shit!" He exclaims.
Steve stopped fighting him and stood back, knowing his work was done. Tony knew one last trick that would bring you down, but he really didn't want to do it. He aimed at the sky where you were flying away and then fired a blast. But it curved and hit Peter instead. You heard the blast go off and looked back and saw Peter lying motionless on the ground.
"No!" You cried out and flew back down.
You picked up his body on the ground and pulled him into your lap.
"Peter, Peter, no please no!" You beg and try to wake him up, kissing his face and shaking him. Your tears landing on his cheeks.
"Don't worry, he'll wake up in about an hour." Tony says and then aims at you. "And so will you. But you'll be behind bars." He says and fires at Steve with his other hand to knock him out as well so he wouldn't try and stop him.
You looked at him angrily as he aimed at you. You knew you had been caught this time. But that didn't mean you would go down without a fight. You let out a roar of rage and flew at him and started punching and kicking at him. That threw off his aim and he stumbled a bit and tried to get his aim back. But by the time he readjusted, you had gotten out your sword and started slashing at his suit. Leaving some dents and gashes in it.
"Shit!" Tony exclaims as his screens in front of him started to get fuzzy.
"Fuck you and your stupid tech!" You spit at him and slice a deep cut through his suit. Then he fired at you and you slammed against the wall and everything went black.
"Yeah, it is stupid. Like halting your attacks to ridicule your opponent, leaving you open for a counter attack." Tony says as he picks you up off of the ground, carrying you bridal style. "But you're a pretty good fighter I'll give you that. Probably better than Spidey over there. Good thing you'll be behind bars if you're not on my side." He says before taking off with you.
A/N: Well how's that for a cliffhanger! And it's going to be about a week until I get the next part up so...Have fun with that! I love you guys so much and I hope you enjoyed this angsty chapter!
