Canon Event
"Will..will you be next?" That's all he could mumble out as he held his dad close to his chest, eyes wide and burned with tears as Gwen and her team managed to get things under control.
Unfortunately, for Miles' Canon Event, they'd been too late. Now, he was sat with his father, dead in his arms, and his partner sat near. "Don't..don't say that." "No, I-I..I don't wanna lose you, too. Not for some dumb Canon Event!" His voice trembled and his breathing grew harsh as he looked back at his dad, wheezing out a soft cry as he put his body back on the ground to hold onto his lover. "How..how am I gonna explain to my mom? I..I don't." Miles couldn't finish his sentence, breath going soft as he laid in their arms like his father had laid in his in his last moments.
"Why did this have to happen?" Miles muttered, a hand pulling his mask up to wipe dripping tears. "Why couldn't I be in time? Why do I always have to be late, why is it always the people I..." He couldn't help but break down, sobbing pitifully in their arms as the other Spiders escorted citizens away from the destruction The Spot had caused singlehandedly. His partner couldn't give a solid explanation, only letting their bare hand rest in his hair as a way of consolation. "Hey. I won't ever leave you, Canon Event or not. We'll get through this together, Miles." Their words only made him latch onto them even harder, cried muffled as he dampened their shirt.
