Invites
The walk home was quiet and filled with an air of awkwardness. You look at the man in the suit walking next to you.
“So...nice day huh?” He looks over, tilting his head.
“I mean- it’s 11:30 pm but sure- let’s go with that.” You laugh, teasing him, poking his chest.
“Pffft-” He lets out a little laugh as you turn a corner.
“You know- you seem like the kind of guy that when the waiter hands you your food and says ‘Enjoy’ you panic and say ‘you too’” You smirk fishing your apartment keys out of your pocket, hearing a fake shock gasp.
“!! How did you hecking know???”
“Oh you just remind me of myself- and we are here….” You purse your lips and turn to your temporary companion.
“Thanks for your help.” You smile at the masked man before you as he salutes you.
“Anytime! Stay safe!” And with a flick of his wrist, the Spider-Man swings into the New York night.
-A few days later-
After struggling to get through New York’s stupid weapons laws you find the pepper spray you ordered at your house. You tried getting a gun, but there was a lot to handle and it felt too wrong. Next was a taser but those were illegal, so you were left with pepper spray. A crummy one at it too. As you added the spray to your keychain, you hear a soft ding from your phone, it’s an email from your old high school.
Hey guys!! MJ here.
Wanted to let you know that we are holding our 5-year reunion, aka our first one! Felicity and I put our heads together and organised this! Below is the invite with all of the information, but if you have any questions, just email me!
A reunion? You grin and accept the invite. It was a week away, and you were going to blow the socks off of every guy there.
