This could be something extremely controversial and he means it with the greatest love... although he would never say it out loud but Hobie's dimension gives Miles a big headache. It's so noisy in both an auditory and visual sense, flashing in a dime between a face full of the brightest colors you can imagine to gray, dark and paper. Nothing remains the same and sometimes it really feels as if Miles had entered a gothic and emo comic.
It's really very beautiful, don't get it wrong, the first time he came here all he could do was admire everything. But it puts a tension in the eyes after a while, especially when the walls do what seems to sprout out of nowhere and give way to each other. It's a little surprising.
The point of all this is that Miles was invited to a small concert that Hobie's band and Gwen had organized. He thinks the right word is concert, but the concert venue is really very big and Miles really doesn't know where the line is between the concert and the concert, so he's going to call this a concert because it makes his friends sound cooler.
If this is the right place. It seems to be the right place from what Hobie described but at the same time Miles got lost for about thirty minutes while trying to get here and had to ask ten locals where this place was but only 3 of them answered him.
It looks like something out of a movie, with a small lobby muffled with a heavy curtain you walk through after giving your ticket and the suspicious false identification that Hobie gave you. And then you walk down a long corridor with lots of posters and graffiti everywhere, which leads you to the real action where you are immediately blinded by the flashing lights and the music that bleeds through your ears. The smell of alcohol and smoke hits his face and nose.
Obviously, this is the right place or your ticket wouldn't have been accepted, but Miles doesn't think he's supposed to be here. He finds it a career issue every time he hangs out with Hobie. And now also guess Gwen if she is frequenting places like these, but to be honest, she is not too surprised by that to see how inseparable she and Hobie seem to be these days. And if Miles is a little jealous of that... then that was his business.
For five minutes, Miles probably walks through this crowded place with his hands in his pockets fiercely protecting the ten pounds on him, feeling really very lost and out of place and cannot detect a single familiar face. To be honest, you can't really see much of anything.
But then a familiar itch forms on the back of his head, and it's his only warning before an arm wraps around his neck. Miles tenses, his eyes widen, but before he can bend this piglet in his stomach, Pavitr suddenly laughs and brings him even closer.
Pavitr: ¡MILES! Hello... opps, I'm sorry ¿Did you get scared?
Pavitr greets you with a wide smile with apology.
Miles: I really almost took you out Pavitr
Miles answered him while Pavitr laughed louder. He rolls his eyes and pulls the other spider to hug it.
Pavitr: ¡I COULD BARELY SEE YOU AMONG THIS INCREDIBLE AND GIGANTIC CROWD! ¿Why are you standing here? Come on, follow me, I found a good corner for us that is not far from the stage
He grabbed Miles by the sleeve and began to guide him through the crowd. Fortunately, Pavitr is a better navigator than him although that could be due more to the fact that he goes to this kind of thing more than Miles.
At least the emergency exit is not far away when it reaches the supposed place. It is far from the main action, but it is much stronger for being closer to the main speakers and Miles does not know which one he really prefers. ¿Is it just because his spider sense is more sensitive or because his friends have blown up their own eardrums?
Hobie is also waiting, but Gwen is nowhere to be seen... Miles saw how his face immediately lit up when he saw Miles and Pavitr heading and closes the distance putting Miles in a hug.
Hobie: ¡I WAS STARTING TO THINK THAT YOU HAD ABANDONED US! ¿Were you a little late, Peter Pan?
Hobie shouted at him just above the loud noise as he walked away from him again
On the other hand, Miles laughed before telling him the following:
Miles: ¡HEY, IT'S NOT MY FAULT! ¡¿OKEY?! ¡I GOT LOST! ¡THIS PLACE IS LITERALLY LIKE A LABYRINTH!
Hobie: I know this is not really your type of scene, ¡BUT ANYWAY I'M REALLY VERY, VERY HAPPY TO SEE YOU!
Hobie told him while sming softly at him
Miles: ¡I'M REALLY EXCITED TO BE ABLE TO SEE HIS INCREDIBLE ROCK CONCERT!
Miles yelled at him
Miles: ¡HEY! ¡¿WHERE IS GWEN BY THE WAY?¡
Hobie: ¡GWENDY IS REHEARSING WITH EVERYONE ELSE!
Hobie told him while raising an eyebrow in a slight confusion.
Miles: ¡¿YOU SHOULDN'T BE REHEARSING WITH ALL OF THEM TOO THEN?!
Hobie: ¡I DIDN'T CREATE IN THE ROCK REHEARSALS!
Hobie told him as if it were the most obvious of the whole world.
Miles: ¡YES, OF COURSE HOBIE!
Hobie: Speaking of that, ¡I SHOULD PROBABLY GO TO THE STAGE NOW! ¡WE WILL BE SINGING LIKE 2 SONGS AND I REALLY HAVE TO PEE WITH A UTMORGENCY!
Miles agreed with the fact that he probably didn't need to know that last part from Hobie.
Pavitr: ¡THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR BEING TOO TRANSPARENT WITH ME HOBIE! ¡NOW I WILL HAVE NIGHTMARES AND I WILL OCCUPY A PSYCHOLOGIST FOR LIFE!
Pavitr told him with some discomfort and with a traumatic expression
Miles: ¡HEY! ¡DON'T FALL OFF THE STAGE!
Miles told him with a slight joke. Fortunately, he was probably lost because of the noise because no one including Hobie notices it.
Hobie: ¡HAVE FUN PETER PAN! And if you feel very dizzy and take a drink, ¡THEN TELL THE WAITER TO PUT IT IN SPIDER-PUNK'S ACCOUNT! He knows me, good guy, but a little heavy with drinks. I saved his daughter from a collapsed building. ¡OKEY, BYE!
And having said that Hobie ran to the bathroom and then it was just him and Pavitr again. They looked at each other.
Miles: Pavitr we are minors
Miles told him while Pavitr laughed
It becomes easier to endure the music the longer you are there, which probably means that you will not be able to listen for the next few days once you are out of here. He and Pav talk to each other until the band of the hour walks on stage, and Miles has to take a double shot when he then sees Gwen and Hobie holding hands and then turns to see Pav, who doesn't seem to have noticed, or if he did, he didn't care. They make eye contact and Miles looks back on stage.
Gwen and Hobie hug each other a little and say something that Miles can't hear completely before Gwen goes behind the drums. Hobie adjusts the strap of his guitar but they both look at each other from time to time.
It was really very strange to be able to see that.
Pavitr: ¿Are you okay, Miles?
Pavitr suddenly asks him putting his hand on his shoulder.
Miles blinked before answering him.
Miles: ¡YES!
Pavitr: You're making weird faces
Pavitr pointed at him.
Miles: ¡IT'S NOT TRUE PAVITR, I'M NOT DOING THAT!
Pavitr: ¡YES, YOU'RE DOING IT! ¿Is it because Hobie and Gwen are so close?
Miles snorted softly before telling his friend the following.
Miles: ¿What? ¡OF COURSE NOT! It's just that they had never held hands before, ¿Really? I mean, sometimes they do, but not like that. O ¿Am I seeing things?
Pav's eyes open wide and he looks between Miles and the stage.
Pavitr: ¿Didn't you know... opps?
I ask Pavitr with a silent voice. If I wasn't right next to Miles, I probably wouldn't have heard it.
Miles: ¿What do I have to know Pavitr?
Pavitr opened his mouth but then quickly closes it looking frantic.
Pavitr: ¡NOTHING! Better forget about everything I said before
Then he continues to mutter things under his breath not even trying to be subtle.
¿Was there something Miles should have known? ¿Or is Pavitr just doing what he thinks is inside a soap opera? There is never a true way to know, so Miles tries not to find out.
Then, just when that thought ends, the concert of Hobie and Gwen's rock band begins
The song is immersed in a solo of guitarist Hobie crumbles absolutely becoming the center of the show as it goes to the edge of the stage and falls to the ground with Rocker elegance. He arches his back off the dirty stage while making working with the guitar seem as easy as breathing air. The crowd cheers as Hobie jumps on his feet with a huge toothy smile. Miles whistles while encouraging him.
The singer takes the show again and while Hobie walks away, but does not return to his original place and moves towards the drums. Gwen doesn't seem to notice him, too caught up in keeping up with the song, but then Hobie gently grabs her by the arm to which she then smiles at him. Both stop playing while she gets up and the next thing that happens steals her breath and takes all the air from Miles' lungs.
Hobie and Gwen were kissing
Gwen has her arms wrapped around her neck while Hobie lovingly holds her by his waist. The whole audience is screaming but Miles on the other hand is frozen and stunned in his place.
It's not... I wouldn't describe the anguish but there was a feeling of sinking that forms in the lower part of his chest and stomach that becomes stronger the longer he looks at them. Gwen now has black lipstick on her lips when she and Hobie separate and the way Hobie looks at him really establishes a perspective that fills him with disappointment and inexplicable pain. When Gwen and Hobie cross the entire stage, they scan the crowd for a long moment before their eyes fall on Miles. He feels betrayed and hurt and unable to stand it much more trying to endure tears that were already falling from his eyes Miles looks at the ground.
Miles had a great pain that broke his heart and he had a lot of pain as if a building had fallen on him when suddenly he feels 2 hands moving against his back and suddenly he shudders, sucking a growl while his head and turns to see Pavitr who raises his arms in surrender.
Pavitr: ¡I'M REALLY SORRY MILES! ¡I WAS JUST TRYING TO COMFORT YOU!
Pavitr exclaimed just above the loud noise of the site.
Miles: ¡¿DID YOU KNOW PAVITR?! ¡¿AND YOU DIDN'T TELL ME ANYTHING?!
Miles shouted at him feeling completely hurt and betrayed by such a revelation from his friend:
Miles: ¿Why didn't you tell me?
Pavitr: In my defense Miles... I didn't have the opportunity to tell you, ¡EVEN IF I KNEW IT RIGHT AWAY! ¡I'M VERY GOOD AT GUESSING WITH JUST HAVING TO SEE PEOPLE!
Miles felt as if he had been propped up in his heart while he felt that that day was the worst day of his entire life as he looked at the ground again, still trying to process it.
Miles: ¿How long have you been hiding it from me? ¿How long have Hobie and Gwen been something?
Miles asked him with a lot of pain and betrayal in his voice that made Pavitr unable to look them in the eyes feeling like the worst person and the worst friend in the world and the entire Multiverse
Pavitr: For a few weeks before I met you Miles... I wanted to tell you but it was something really very painful to see, especially after realizing your feelings for Gwen... and I didn't know how to tell you
Miles stops him right there without being able to stand it for much longer
Miles: Don't tell me anything else... I don't think I can stand it and I don't have feelings for Gwen, Pavitr. She's just my friend but that's all. ¿Okey?
Pavitr: But things are fine between us... ¿Right Miles?
Pavitr asked him not wanting to think that his friendship with Miles and him had been permanently ruined
Miles: yes... of course because the one who will hide something like that from me is something extremely minor and not at all significant and important Pavitr
Miles told him for a moment and cleared his throat trying not to burst into tears. He would destroy any other feeling inside him and tried to put on a happy smile.
Miles: ¡I WAS REALLY VERY HAPPY FOR THEM 2! Seriously, I'm glad that my friends are... so but SO happy with each other
Pavitr gives him a look that was understanding but at the same time he was also sad
Pavitr: I'm really happy to know that this didn't ruin our Spider-Man's friendship at all
Miles: Yes, I wonder why we wouldn't be friends yet Pavitr
He really had no intention of sounding cruel and angry but this really didn't make it easy for the poor guy and Pavitr gives him one last look before walking away from him... fortunately. Miles sighs and then hisses while the Rock band once finally finishes their song.
A very but SUPER uncomfortable silence was present between Miles and Pavitr when the band finally ended and they said good night to their audience while Pavitr begins to quickly bite his nails like a cartoon character when then he and Miles saw how Hobie and Gwen approached them while they were still holding hands.
Gwen: Hey
Miles: Hey
How awkward: Miles said to himself in his head while biting his tongue.
Pavitr: His Rock concert was really absolutely great
Pavitr told him, breaking the silence while he was shaking from where he was.
Miles: Yes, I... I really enjoyed your guitar solo, Hobie
Hobie: Thank you very much guys...
Hobie raises his forehead.
Hobie: He thought I missed something very, VERY important between you 2 because you see something good... tense and awkward
Miles: None of that Hobie is that... Pavitr is just being a weirdo
Miles told him maybe too fast while Pavitr made a noise offended and hurt by his comment while dramatically putting a hand on his chest
On the other hand Gwen laughed softly but then she returned to silence... while Miles was doing everything possible to be able to endure looking into her eyes and also at Hobie without finishing making a heartbroken scene
Pavitr: ¡PLEASE... JUST TELL YOURSELF SOMETHING OR I'M GOING TO EXPLODE!
Pavitr suddenly shouted at them, clinging with his hands gently to his perfect and beautiful hair while the people and the public around him began to stare at them with curiosity, something that made Pavitr immediately blush somewhat awkward when he saw the scene he had done unintentionally
Miles: There's nothing to say Pavitr... I already realized that you are something...
Miles told him after another unbearable silence and immediately had multiple desires to die and that the earth will swallow him there even so as not to die of shame and pain
Miles: Whatever you are... you 2
Gwen: We're together Miles... Hobie and I are boyfriends
Gwen told him going to the point while Hobie blushed and became surprisingly shy
Miles laughed softly and ignored the way Pav deflated and fainted on the floor right next to him.
Miles: Yes, well... that's what I thought but at the same time I'm surprised because I know you don't believe in labels. Isn't it Hobie?
Hobie: I'm hers. She's mine
Hobie simply tells him.
Ouch... That hurt
Hobie: ¿Are you okay, Miles?
Miles feels that he had made a lump in his throat and that he had punched him in the pit of his stomach.
Miles: ¡BUT OF COURSE EVERYTHING IS FINE! ¿Why wouldn't I be fine?
Gwen: It's what... well you have a look of pain in your eyes Miles
Gwen told him with a look in which there was some sadness mixed with also some guilt that shone in her beautiful eyes
Miles really began to hate how easy it was for people to guess their emotions and feelings.
Miles: I'm really, VERY well Gwen... don't worry
Miles assured him but he realized that it didn't sound as confident as he would have liked.
Miles: Seriously, ¿Why is everyone being so BUT SO weird? ¡I'M REALLY VERY WELL! I'm really very happy for you 2... you're my friends, ¿Why wouldn't I be happy because you're boyfriends?
And there was another uncomfortable pause while Hobie and Gwen stared into his eyes and then Hobie turned gray while Miles felt that he was dying of absolute shame.
Hobie: I'm glad to know... Peter Pan
Hobie told him as he raised his free hand.
Hobie: Although Gwendy and I anyway... we really regret not having told you much before Peter Pan
Gwen: if that's what Miles is about. There was nothing against you and we didn't tell anyone... We didn't see the need
Gwen told him trying to comfort him too while Miles heard how Pavitr had let out a trembling breath from his place while he was still on the ground.
Miles: Guys... It's okay... I really mean it, I'm not angry, that's absolutely a big nonsense
Miles pressed his lips firmly although he coughed by accident before a message reached his cell phone
Miles: but anyway... this is not related at all but I have to go now... my parents want me home before 11:00, so I think I'd better go to...
Miles told him while pointing with his thumb behind him and was careful not to step on Pavitr who was still fainted on the floor
Gwen: ¡YES! Yes, definitely
Gwen told her with a smile while Hobie lovingly put a hand on her shoulder and she put her own hand on his while they both looked at him
Gwen: ¡I WAS REALLY HAPPY THAT YOU CAME TO THE CONCERT!
Miles: ¡OF COURSE! At any time, this was really great
Miles told him as he took a step back.
Miles: yes. Nice to see you. Congratulations on you. Well... goodbye... bye
¿Why did he tell them that?: Well, too late, he already said it and now he leaves with his shoulders pressed against his ears while Miles feels how the tears finally fall without having any control by his eyes while walking down the corridor and once he left the building he had only taken 4 steps before then Miles burst into tears
Needless to say, when he came to dime son and arrived at his house, he immediately opened the refrigerator of his house and took out the ice cream as soon as he turned on the television and watched movies, series and soap operas that were absolutely sad but that were perfect for people who had a broken heart
After that day at the concert Miles had not spoken to Gwen and Hobie or Pavitr without counting that his parents had tried to talk to him when they saw the sadness and pain he had in his eyes and after 2 months
Miles was alone at home and was having a snack while listening at the same time to his favorite song which was the song of "Sunflower"
Miles: Needless to say I keep in check/No hace falta decir que la mantengo bajo control She was a bad-bad, nevertheless (yeah)/Sin embargo, ella era muy mala
Miles said singing with his headphones on while he moved the bread and put the butter on one side while the mayonnaise on the other side and finally put 3 different types of cheeses Right in the middle.
Miles: You don't wanna be alone (alone)/No quieres estar sola
Miles continued to sing while splitting the center of the mozzarella.
The perfect grilled cheese to accompany it during your snack.
Miles: I know I always come and go (and go)/Sé que siempre vengo y voy... ¡OUCH, HOT!
Miles stopped singing when he suddenly realized that he had accidentally left a rag next to the stove... how lucky that his arachnid sense as well as his nose helped him realize that and just in time
Miles: ¡BURN, BURN, BURN, BURN!
Miles shouted while throwing the burning rag in the sink and quickly opened the tap turning off the fire while also soaking his hand in the water because it had burned slightly but fortunately it was nothing to worry about
Miles: Well, rag. But anyway we won't miss you because Miles is going to hide you before his Mommy finds out that he almost burned the apartment with you.
Miles: Phew... Well, avoided crisis
And now back to his beloved and beautiful grilled cheese sandwich.
Miles: You're the sunflower/Eres un girasol
While he was still singing while the cheese on his sandwich sizzled when it came into contact with the pan, the butter began to bubble around the bread.
Miles: Oooo OOOOOO--
Alert that he had been out of tune.
Miles: Oh, Opps
Miles laughed. That was a really bad thing. Fortunately, Miles is alone, so he is not ashamed at all.
Or that's what I thought.
Miles: I think your love would be too much/Creo que tu amor sería demasiado
Miles closed his eyes a little along with the note of the song while he couldn't help but start dancing a little while he gets into sync in the area.
Miles: Unless I stuck by ya/A menos que me quede contigo
Miles shot a spider web towards the refrigerator door and moved his wrist so that the orange juice box identified.
Miles: You're the sunflower (yeah)/Eres el girasol (sí)
Once he brought the captured juice carton. ¿What is the best great part of being a Spider-Man? The fact of being standing in his kitchen.
While the grilled cheese slips in the air while its other side lands in the pan. Now it feels and it also smelled very good.
While he also took some breaks to dance.
He made a turn and then attracted a cup and a plate. He filled his cup as if he were a bartender and then closed the refrigerator door after putting the juice box away again.
The grilled cheese sandwich is ready. I slide it on his plate and cut it into triangles. This is absolutely perfect. Oh, I was so but SO ready to eat this.
Miles took his snack and then turned on his heel towards his room.
Miles: Good to eat... ¡AHHH!
Miles felt that he almost had a heart attack when he hit Hobie's chest, which is apparently right here with him... in his dimension. In his house and together with... Gwen
It's not that it was a bad thing... Miles hasn't seen Hobie and Gwen since he found out that they were boyfriends at their Rock concert but he still wasn't sure if he was happy or uncomfortable to see them again but at the same time it was also unfortunate that his feelings for her still made her stomach feel butterflies but despite that. ¿It's not a simple... crush, which are a little more than just crush, are they supposed to disappear if you spend enough time away from the person? But it seems that the further away he is, the more he thought about Gwen. She was still the only thing he wanted to draw even though he hadn't given up. ¿How is Miles supposed to get over a girl from his dreams if he spent all his time drawing her in his sketchbook?
Maybe I haven't spent enough time outside. Ughh, expect this visit to be very, VERY short. For the good of all... but especially for the
Hobie: Hello Peter Pan
Hobie tells him but Miles could barely hear him through his music.
That's why he took off his headphones and left them around with his neck.
Miles: ¿How long have the 2 of you been here?
Miles asked them while pretending that his face was not shining with a deep crimson reddish color.
Gwen: Well... All the time
Gwen didn't hide her smile... although Miles really didn't think she was trying from the first place.
¡¿Why didn't his sense of Spiderman warn him?! ¿Aren't you supposed to prevent yourself from looking like a real but really TRUE clumsy?
Miles: They almost made me drop my grilled cheese sandwich
Miles told them as he took a few steps back.
Miles: ¿Did they ever think of warning me at least?
Gwen: Well, if you didn't see an interdimensional portal that opened right outside your window... then that's completely your fault
Gwen told him
Hobie: And we also wanted your performance... not to mention that you also sang for a change
Hobie told him and then winked at him.
Hobie: You have a very nice voice, by the way
Miles felt as if his cheeks had been burned because of how red they turned
Miles: ¡THEY KNOW THAT BREAKING INTO AND BREAKING INTO A HOUSE IS A VERY, VERY SERIOUS CRIME! My dad is a policeman, they should both be worried right now
Miles told them while he opened the door of his room with his foot and tried to ignore the steps that could be heard right behind him.
Hobie: ¿Yes? ¿And where is Captain Morales right now?
Hobie asked him curiously while Miles rolled his eyes
Miles: He's at the police station protecting citizens, investigating some crimes and... well among other things
Miles explained to them already from inside his room while Hobie and Gwen sat with him in his bed.
Miles: Don't give me that little look
Gwen: We're not taking any look at you Miles
Miles: Yes, of course... ¡GWEN!
Miles complained when she stole half of his sandwich, biting a huge piece of it.
Gwen: ¿What? I'm hungry, ¿Aren't you supposed to feed your guests?
She fell on her bed while chewing and her shoes brushed her blankets.
Miles: ¡YOU ARE NOT MY GUESTS! ¡YOU ARE INTRUDERS!
Miles grabbed her half of her remaining sandwich and protected her from Hobie's hungry eyes before she let out a very, VERY feminine scream of laughter when suddenly Gwen and Hobie began to tickle her stomach and neck
Miles: JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJJA don't wait JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAUAU please don't JAJAJAJAJAJAUAUAUAUA that's not JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAUAUAUAU it's too many tickling
I begged them between their laughter and while trying to protect himself from tickling he accidentally left his beloved sandwich unprotected and then Hobie quickly took advantage of that and quickly took it and gave him a big bite while he and Gwen stopped tickling Miles while he recovered from the ruthless attack of the tickling he had suffered for Hobie and Gwen
Hobie: So... ¿Where is this energy when you jump into our dimensions without ingesting it?
Hobie asked him while he also drank Miles' orange juice while Miles raised his arm trying to rescue Hobie's judo while Hobie turned pink with a smile spread across his face.
Miles: I always ask before I can visit him because I AM polite
Miles tells him as he jumped and Hobie moved his arm just as fast.
Hobie: Kindness is somewhat subjective
Hobie told him as if it were the simplest thing in the arachnid world
While Miles didn't know how to answer that so he better didn't say anything
Gwen: So... ¿Do you want to hang out?
Gwen asked her while she and Hobie cleaned their hands and Miles mourns the loss of her beloved sandwich before Hobie put the glass of her judo already empty
Miles: I can't guys... I'm sorry. I'm really very, VERY busy
Miles told them shaking his head and leaning against his desk.
Hobie: Well Peter Pan... You didn't seem so busy dancing and singing in your kitchen
Miles: ¡HEY! ¡I GOT HUNGRY, SO I TOOK A VERY, VERY SHORT BREAK! But now I'm back to work
Miles sat in his chair and turned to his desk to continue with his school work
Gwen: Then just take another break
Gwen told him while Hobie grabbed the back of the chair and turned it at the same time, poor Miles held on tightly trying not to vomit because of the turns that turned his stomach
Miles: If I take too many breaks then I will never do any work. And I need to do this essay for my Spanish class or else my final grade will drop to a C and my parents will really kill me
Honestly, it's not as dramatic as he's doing. The qualifying is due on Friday, but it's a good excuse not to be a third wheel for hours.
That was also a bit dramatic. It's okay, he doesn't bother so much to see Gwen and Hobie being in love with each other constantly. Taking all things into account, apart from the occasional moments of weakness, Miles has been managing these last few months wonderfully. (And out of weakness, he is talking about the very common moments in which Miles screams with his head at the top of the skyscrapers. And when he cried to his parents. And when he tore off all his drawings of Gwen only to regret it immediately. And the time he almost broke the clock intentionally. And also the crazy and heartbroken diatribes that have been thrown at Pavitr. And when he)
Miles has been handling all this very, very well for the first time... without a doubt.
Hobie: School is a broken system designed to prepare children for failure and factory work
I explain to Hobie as if that would change anything.
Miles: Well, guess what... I still need to get my diploma and I would really like to go to college
Gwen: You're settling Miles
Miles: I'm literally Spider-Man
Miles planted his feet on the ground to stop the turns and got up a little disoriented by the turns while trying to walk straight and move around his room that was giving him an account at that very moment... only for him to fall on the floor
Once Miles was finally able to focus his sight correctly, he realized that his homework papers had gone and saw that Gwen is sitting perfectly still on her bed whistling a small melody... with her arms suspiciously hidden behind her.
He blinked at her.
Miles: ¿Gwen?
She stops hissing and clears her throat, looking at him with an innocent expression.
Gwen: ¿Yes, Miles?
She asked him trying to look cute and innocent... although she was really achieving it the truth
Miles: ¿What do you have hidden there behind you?
Gwen: Nothing... ¿Why?
Miles stands up once he managed to straighten up and walk properly without feeling dizzy and nauseous from the twists he had had before from Hobie who had left him sitting on the floor next to Gwen
Miles: ¿Gwen?
Gwen: ¿Miles?
Miles: ¿What do you have there?
Miles asked her again as they walked slowly towards her while Gwen only stepped back.
Gwen: Nothing
She told him while they stared at each other and then Miles could see very clearly the package of papers that was firmly gripped behind her while Gwen smiles at her as if nothing was wrong and then looks beyond her shoulder.
Before Miles could act, he immediately felt how some arms wrapped him around his waist and lifted him off the ground.
Hobie: ¡RUN, GWENDY!
Hobie shouted at Gwen while Miles immediately began to fight to be able to escape from him
Miles: ¡NO!
Miles shouted as Gwen ran out of bed.
While Gwen hurries to open a portal Miles quickly turned to stand in front of Hobie and quickly made his move to escape from him although he could have sworn that he had seen Hobie blush before Miles quickly moved one of his hands towards Hobie's armpit while he quickly moved his other hand against his stomach which made Hobie immediately have trouble holding him against his body
Hobie: JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJJA MILES NO JAJAJAJAJAJJAJAJAJAJ DON'T TICKLE ME PLEASE JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJJAJAUAUAUA IT'S TOO MANY TICKLES HELP JAJAJAJAJAJJAJAJAJAJAHA
Hobie shouted between his laughter to Miles and unable to stand it quickly released him and protected himself from tickling while Miles shot a spider web to the ceiling using it to throw himself up the objects around his room begin to float and Miles quickly caught Gwen's legs before she could think of entering the portal and escaping.
While Hobie who had already recovered from the tickling quickly grabbed the papers and looked at Miles with a dangerous but also mischievous smile on his face to which Miles quickly threw himself from the roof to land on top of Hobie but unfortunately for the Hobie got out of the middle in time as well as from his way and in his place Miles almost fell on the sidewalk before it was held in time
Hobie: opps
That was all Hobie had to tell him while Miles shot him a spider web that hit him in the chest and threw him forward causing Hobie to stumble but still manages to move his arms away.
Miles: ¡HOBIE, GIVE THEM TO ME!
Miles exclaimed, still trying to recover his homework.
Hobie: Maybe I should steal your homework more often if this is the only way you pay attention to Gwendy and me Peter Pan
Hobie winked at him and Miles stopped briefly without knowing why he had suddenly felt butterflies in his stomach and his cheeks blushing home second more
Miles blinked without really knowing what he should do to himself.
Miles: Oh... am...
Hobie gently tilted his head and laughed softly.
Hobie: ¿Are you still busy Peter Pan?
He asked him while looking at him.
Miles: ¡OBVIOUSLY YES HOBIE!
Hobie: Well, how sad... ¡THEY ARE YOURS GWENDY!
The papers disappeared from Hobie's hands and appeared in those of Gwen who was now free of Miles and now masked as she quickly jumped towards the portal.
Miles: ¡WAIT GWEN! no, no,no,no...
Miles' eyes open wide and he quickly tried to stop her but she's already gone
Hobie: ¿What? ¡YOU SAID YOU WEREN'T BUSY ANYMORE PETER PAN!
Hobie mocked as he put the mask on his face and quickly jumped back on the portal as well
Hobie: ¡SEE YOU LATER!
I yelled at him before he also left and the portal began to close.
Miles: ¡OHY, THIS IS NOT POSSIBLE!
Miles shouted to himself and barely has time to grab his own mask before jumping into the portal behind them.
Miles spits the other end of the portal into Gwen's dimension and immediately jumps after the spiders a few buildings away. They are perched on top of a roof looking in their direction and then Gwen and Hobie jumped when Miles approached and continued to move away... they were too fast but it didn't take long before Miles went at a steady pace right behind them while Hobie and Gwen passed each other and passed the papers to each other.
Miles: ¡COME ON, GUYS! I admit it was a good trick, ¡THEY ALREADY TOOK ME OUT OF MY HOUSE AND ALSO OUT OF MY DIMENSION!
Miles told them after a failed attempt to snatch the papers from Gwen's hands before she throws them in the direction of Hobie.
Miles: ¡YOU CAN GIVE ME BACK MY HOMEWORK RIGHT NOW!
Gwen: ¡BUT IF YOU JUST ARRIVED MILES!
Gwen complained playfully while she and Hobie still refused to give Miles their homework
But instead, Hobie said the following to Miles:
Hobie: ¿¡WHAT WILL YOU GIVE US IN EXCHANGE FOR RETURNING YOUR BELOVED TASK!?
I ask him while he had the package in his hands, now very, VERY wrinkled.
Hobie: ¿¡WHAT WOULD YOU BE WILLING TO DO, PETER PAN!?
The three of them slipped under a train bridge while Gwen was guiding them... sliding back while Hobie swings in circles around Miles with the papers creaking in the wind. For the sake of his sanity... he would try to snatch them from Hobie's hands but it's too out of his reach before he approaches remotely.
¿Was it silly to hang out with spider people? Everyone has the same reactive instincts; for the most part.
Miles rolled his eyes:
Miles: ¿What do the 2 want?
¿A week of homemade food? ¿Free clothing collection in Miles' closet? (Because it does it a lot despite the fact that the two are not the same size, apart from large things)... (Although of course Gwen also does that but at least she does fit in most of her things)... (It's actually something depressing and disappointing because Miles is going to have to buy more clothes soon).
The lenses of Hobie's mask narrowed and he got closer and closer to Miles until he could practically feel him breathing through his neck. He finds his shoulders crunching under the weight of Hobie's gaze even through the mask while Miles again felt how the butterflies in his stomach returned to him and it would also be like under the mask his cheeks were getting redder and redder
And then, in a low voice, Hobie murmurs in his ear:
Hobie: ¿How about you kiss us both?
And that caused Miles' brain to effectively short-circuit... immediately.
Miles felt that he was going to faint as he watched Gwen and Hobie approach to stand in front of him bowing their heads
Miles: I... am... ¿What?... I say... am
And of course Miles thought Hobie said it jokingly because he and Gwen were boyfriends... but then it happened that before Miles could even react he saw how they both lifted their masks enough to show only their lips and noses and then Miles felt how the 2 lifted his mask and showed his lips and his nose but before he could realize it he felt how Hobie's lips found each other kissing his own... giving him a soft kiss while the glasses of Hobie's mask closed Miles could only react long enough to also close his own eyes and then when Hobie separated from him Miles could not react before also Gwen's lips found themselves kissing his lips kissing him tenderly on her lips before Gwen's glasses closed and just like with Hobie... Miles could only react to do the same with his eyes and when Gwen separated from him Miles saw how she and Hobie kissed each other on the lips before they both approached him again and kissed him but now the 2 together at the same time on his lips
Miles really couldn't even explain what he was feeling at that very moment... he felt as if he had eaten a ton of butterflies in his stomach at the same time that he felt like fireworks exploded inside him not to mention that he felt as if a weight came out of him as well as a feeling of happiness that filled him from head to toe at the same time as a tingling sensation and he also felt how an incredible and beautiful feeling of freedom made its way inside him and then Miles felt a small natural impulse and could not help but put his hands on the back of Hobie and Gwen's heads and brought them closer to him again so that they could kiss each other on the lips again now at the same time on the lips again
But then when they separated again Hobie and Gwen quickly got back on their back and lowered their masks and gave their papers to Miles
Miles was calm until the reality of what he had just done became more than obvious to him (Gwen and Hobie were boyfriends... they were dating... I'm an idiot... I can't believe what I just did to both of them)
Miles took his task and unable to stand it quickly used his watch to open a portal to his dimension (since Hobie had also made one for him so that he could visit him and Gwen along with Pavitr in their dimensions without having pixels)... and immediately tried to cross it only so that he was stopped by 4 hands
(This is the best... He wasn't homophobic or anything like that but Hobie and Gwen were boyfriends... Miles felt that neither his heart nor he could bear to think that he will fall in love with them and then it will turn out to be that it had been nothing more than a simple impulse on their part 2.)
Hobie: hey Peter Pan, things don't have to be uncomfortable between the 3 of us
Hobie told him trying to calm him down although Miles would be grateful if he hadn't completely taken off his mask because that way Hobie and Gwen wouldn't see how his eyes filled with tears of suffering and pain as well as his poor little heart was broken by his words
Gwen: Hobie is right Miles... things can still be the same between us
So Miles tried to act as calm and calm as possible and did everything possible so that his voice would be heard completely normal and without pain
Miles: of course... why would things be uncomfortable?... I'm not uncomfortable... not at all... at all... well, since we're here, we have to go for a walk... join me if you can
He told them right away to leave quickly and start swinging with their cobwebs and then they flew from under the bridge and then turned down a new street while Hobie and Gwen looked at each other right away from lowering their masks and following Miles
Miles: So... ¿They only brought me to chase them all this time or are we really going somewhere?
Miles asked them from the front of them before Hobie and Gwen overtook him and stood in front of him again
Gwen looked at him:
Gwen: ¿Were you chasing us? I didn't realize that
She made fun of him a little.
Miles: Well... This is me... who is always calm with you 2
Miles told them trying to cheer up the situation and ignore his broken heart at the same time
Hobie whistled in response.
Hobie: ¡HEY PETER PAN! ¿Do you want to try something with the 2 of us?
Miles: ¿Are you really asking me?
Miles smiled at him under his mask while he felt how his feelings became very confusing and he no longer knew why that was... besides it had only been a kiss it was not important nor was it something really significant... at least for them 2
Hobie: Come on, Peter Pan
Hobie told him.
Miles laughed and let go of his spider web before becoming invisible. Immediately his 2 friends moaned since they had forgotten that Miles had that specific ability while Miles was cheating that made them roll their eyes. While searching around him for any lost spider webs, Miles runs along the edge of a building. It doesn't take him long to catch up with them and after seeing them for a moment, Hobie makes the mistake of standing still. Miles jumps from the building and Hobie hardens and there is a fraction of a second in which Hobie looks directly beyond him before the two collide... it was actually a little ridiculous all that since Hobie was already neon pink and quickly turned gray while he almost let go of his next arachnid network and screamed like a little girl of fear and surprise.
Hobie: ¡MILES!
He yelled at him trying to get out from under him while Miles climbs up from behind and suddenly they hit the roof of an apartment before Miles shoots cobwebs and holds Hobie's arms over his head and does the same with his legs
Hobie: You're Crazy... ¡LITTLE CHEATER! ¡MAYBE HE'S TRYING TO KILL ME! ¡¿EH?!
Miles bit his tongue so he could stop laughing before he gave Hobie a very, VERY naughty look and immediately put his hands in his unprotected armpits making him scream immediately
Hobie: JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJ PETER PAN NO JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJJAJAJAJAJAJAJA STOP, PLEASE HAJAJAJAJAJAHJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJ GWENDY PLEASE HELP ME
JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJQJAJQJAJAJ IT'S TOO MANY TICKLES PLEASE JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJ
Hobie screamed laughing out loud hysterically trying to escape frantically from the tickling while Miles kept one of his hands in Hobie's armpit the other buried it in his ribs doubling Hobie's hysterical laughter while Gwen looked at them smiling under her mask and approached them while she quickly sat on Hobie's hips and she along with Miles changed places and now she was the one who tickled Hobie in the same way that Miles at the same time that Miles sat on Hobie's legs to tickle his thighs and feet
Hobie: JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJQJA PLEASE STOP JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJA THOSE ARE JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJJAJA MY WEAK POINTS PLEASE JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJ I'M GOING TO PEE JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAAJJQQJJ
Hobie begged them with tears in his eyes while blushing strongly but especially when Gwen attacked his poor navel through his Spider-Man suit and even lifted the mask and gave raspberry there and also in his ribs while Hobie quickly stirred before Gwen and Miles stopped and let him rest and cut the cobwebs to be able to free him
Hobie: I'm going to take revenge Miles... ¡COME BACK HERE RIGHT NOW!
Miles: Well, I'm leaving now
Miles told them as he quickly escaped swinging with Hobie behind him and Gwen who quickly overtook Hobie got close to Miles before they continued with their walk through Gwen's dimension they continued to make their walk with Miles swinging so they could escape from Hobie before Hobie tried to shoot a spider web towards the newspapers but Gwen gets them first and Miles becomes invisible again and tries to catch Gwen becoming visible while she screamed although unfortunately for Miles I don't succeed but at least she was able to hide the newspapers behind He... Then it's no longer funny and the lenses of Gwen's Spider-Woman mask became wide... She reached for him and grabbed Miles' leg making him hang under her.
Gwen: ¿What do you have there, Miles?
Gwen asked him frowning
To which Miles immediately hides the newspapers behind his back.
Miles: Nothing
He replied smiling a little to himself
A novice mistake and especially when he and Gwen quickly fell on the roof of a building and she quickly fired cobwebs catching Miles in the same way that he had managed to catch Hobie before Miles who was absolutely nervous saw how Gwen and Hobie got in front of him and saw how Hobie cracked his knuckles just like Gwen and quickly it was Miles who laughed out loud when Hobie suddenly lifted his mask but without showing his face and left his neck exposed and Hobie lifted his own mask and quickly began to attack him with his face to tickle him
Miles: JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJ HOBIE, DON'T DO IT AJAJAJAJAJAJJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJJAJA PLEASE MERCY JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJWJWJWJWJW THERE ARE HAJAJAJAJAJAHAHAHAHAHAHAHJAHAH TOO MANY TICKLES PLEASE JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJ GWEN HELP ME PLEASE JWJWJJWJAJAJAJAHAHAHAHAHHAHAH
Miles shouted at them laughing hysterically while Hobie quickly put his hands in Miles' bleeding armpits to tickle him there is also at the same time as on his neck while Gwen who was already on her side looked with a smile that was visible because she had lifted the mask and you could see her lips as well as her smile before she decided to help her boyfriend attack the poor Miles
Miles: HAHAJAJAJAJAJAHAHAHAHJAJAJAJAJAJ NO GWEN JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJJAAJJAJAJAJAJAJAJA I'M GOING TO PEE HAJAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA PLEASE NO MORE HELP HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHQHAHAHAHAI'TS TOO MUCH TICKLES PLEASE HAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJJAHJJAHQHA
Miles begged them between their hysterical laughter while he had tears in his eyes and his cheeks turned an extremely reddish color before Hobie and Gwen had mercy on him and they will stop tickling him and free him from Gwen's cobwebs while Hobie then said the following to Miles
Hobie: I told you that Peter Pan was going to avenge me
Gwen: that was the right thing
After Miles fully recovers from the tickles, the 3 continued their walk through Gwen's dimension
Gwen: ¡COME ON, IT'S THIS WHERE!
Gwen shouted at them from in front of them as they swung through the buildings and Miles had to admit that he was getting tired of having to come and go while they continued for a little longer until they reached a street that Miles weakly recognized and then landed at the top of a building that he definitely recognizes as Gwen's special place none of the 3 wastes much time and finally all Hobie has to tell them is:
Hobie: Well... this is how far our influence has come Gwendy
Gwen: Well... since you're here with us it would be very rude if you left so quickly Miles
Gwen told them with a solemn sigh.
Miles: Yes, well... in my defense is that you 2 entered my house without even being welcome and stole my things
Miles defended himself while examining his papers that were now completely wrinkled but at least nothing is stained or destroyed so... technically that's already a gain.
Hobie made a slight uncertain sound.
Hobie: Technically... I wouldn't call it steal or raid... since we just borrowed it Peter Pan
Miles gave him an unconvinced look.
Miles: Yes, of course Hobie... but anyway... ¿What good is my essay written in Puerto Rican Spanish?
Hobie: You should assume why we have nothing else to do... you should know that Gwendy and I have been studying Puerto Rican Spanish. ¿Right, Gwendy?
Hobie told him nonsense and could hear the smile in his voice through the mask.
Gwen: ¡YES, THAT'S HOW MILES IS!
Gwen told him while Miles snorted without believing it at all
Miles: ¿And how long have they been "studying" Puerto Rican Spanish?
Miles asked them with some doubt but accidentally ended up talking faster than he should or even thought himself while the lenses of Hobie and Gwen's masks blinked 2 times in a row at the same time.
Gwen: ¿Could you say it again Miles? But obviously much slower, please
I asked Gwen while she and Hobie tried to understand what Miles had told them
Miles: You know that if you wanted... I could teach you both Puerto Rican Spanish
Miles regretted speaking from the moment the words come out of his mouth. ¿Why did he tell them that? The goal was to distance themselves from them and especially from that kiss that didn't happen between him with Gwen and Hobie. He shouldn't even be here with them yet 2.
But unfortunately it was already too late to regret because both Hobie and Gwen were happy and made a few small jumps completely excited.
Gwen: ¡OF COURSE YES, MILES! That's something we would both really love... thank you very much for offering to help him learn Puerto Rican Spanish
Gwen exclaimed happily while Hobie told her the following:
Hobie: Gwendy is very right... we would both really love to learn from you Puerto Rican Spanish
Argghhhh... his heart really felt weird right now... and especially when Hobie spoke to him that way, things were no longer just with Gwen and that was something that Miles really hated... he should never have kissed them even though a part of him felt complete and happy when he did
Miles laughed nervously and flexed his hands to the sides.
Miles: Although of course I can't promise that I'll really be the best teacher for both... so
Hobie: We are easy students Peter Pan
Hobie assured him while resting a hand on his shoulder which made Miles blush to the maximum under his mask... it would have been a beautiful moment if Hobie, Gwen and Miles' stomachs hadn't growl which caused the lenses of the 3 masks to enlarge along with the shame for that
Hobie: But right now... the truth is that I'm really starving, Hey ¿Do you still have those fries that I like downstairs, Gwendy?
Gwen: I think so Hobie... well of course unless my dad has already eaten them last night
Gwen and Hobie are very casual when they unmask themselves and head towards the trapdoor with Miles right behind them without knowing what he really felt for both of them at that precise moment
This is something really dangerous. ¿Hanging out with Spider-Punk and Spider-Woman? Tolerable. ¿But when are they themselves?... This is something really very painful for him and he feels bad having to admit it.
Miles: However... I really should go to my dimension... I have to finish my homework and I don't want to have problems with my parents if they find out that I'm not studying in addition to the fact that I don't want the enemies of my dimension to take advantage of my disappearance to attack
Miles told them with some doubts which made his 2 friends immediately stop and turn to see him before they approached him again which made Miles get very nervous immediately and began to walk in reverse to them to put distance between the 3
Miles: And well... I also still have a lot to do at home so...
Gwen: You have your things but you can also finish them here
Gwen told him when she got in front of him together with Hobie and they cornered him against the stairs outside his house
Hobie: Gwendy is really right... of course unless you really want to leave... which is also great if that's what you want Peter Pan
He was too weak and especially when he commented or the mistake that same day of having kissed both
Miles: Um good... Maybe it's okay actually
Miles told them, sounding slightly nervous because of how close he was to Hobie and Gwen at that very moment
Gwen: ¿Are you sure Miles? I don't want to force you to be here with me and Hobie if you don't want to be
Miles: I'm really sure Gwen
Gwen: It's okay... let's go then
Gwen entered through the access door and kept it open until Hobie and Miles passed by letting them both walk under him. The 3 took off their masks as soon as they were inside.
Gwen: Come on, we have to hurry because my apartment is like on the other side of the building and it would be a little uncomfortable if someone saw us with our suits
That was something very, MUCH less easy for Miles. He just had to put his Spider-Man mask in his hoodie pocket.
Miles: ¿Why didn't the 2 bring extra clothes?
Hobie: That's why we went to Gwendy's living room on a whim. The place is probably a disaster now
Gwen: And also because we missed you so much that we just couldn't wait to put extra clothes there
He winked at Gwen before she did the same to him making Miles do everything possible to look serene and not blush because he was no longer wearing his mask
Gwen: Besides the fact that it's not really the big BIG thing
Hobie: And in the worst case... you make the 3 of us invisible
Hobie told him jokingly while he kept one hand on Gwen's waist and put his other hand on Miles' shoulder which caused Miles to do his best not to blush and be able to see himself in every second serene in front of them
Miles: My invisibility powers don't work like that Hobie and you as much as Gwen know it
Hobie: That depends
They walked a few steps before Hobie and Gwen get ahead of him now holding hands while Miles acted as if he didn't notice the smiles and shoulder brushes they exchange. Instead he just looked anywhere else on this narrow staircase and ignores a familiar feeling of pain and suffering that creeps through him like a disease.
Miles is the friend of both. That's all they are and that kiss they shared was never going to change because that was all... just a kiss and nothing else but that was all the 3 were because their hearts belonged to each other and Miles' feelings need to catch up with that fact and move on.
Hobie: ¿What are you okay back there Peter Pan?
Hobie asked him taking him out of his thoughts.
Miles: I'm fine Hobie. I'm just hungry... because 2 people I know robbed me and ate my lunch
Miles responds easily by giving them a playful glow with his gaze to him and Gwen for what happened with his beloved grilled cheese sandwich
Hobie: How rude. ¿Who would steal someone else's food? I don't know them at all
Gwen: Neither do I
Hobie mocked along with Gwen while Miles only laughed while the couple began to play from one side to the other... he really wanted to pretend that he was not a horrible friend when some distant thoughts went through his mind... he didn't want to be in Hobie's place... he wanted to be at the same time as Hobie as Gwen's boyfriend and swallowed the guilt that later reached his throat as if it were acid.
Miles thought to himself that it was the right thing to do. Hobie and Gwen really deserved to have a best friend.
