Peter's room
After realizing what Harley was doing, he pulled away from Peter and was hoping he wasn’t mad at him. He wanted to kiss Peter, but not like this. He wanted to take Peter out on date and give him a night to remember, but that idea is pretty much out the window. The only thought that was running through Harley’s mind right now was he was hoping Peter didn’t hate him.
Peter on the other hand, he was completely in shock, but not in the bad way. He was hoping to kiss Harley again, he just wasn’t expecting to happen so soon. When Harley pulled himself away from Peter, Peter just felt his face heat up which is now a bright shade of red, but he was snapped out of his daze when he heard Harley speaking.
“OH MY GOD! I’M SO SORRY PETER, I DON’T KNOW WHAT CAME OVER ME! I MEAN I’M GRATEFUL FOR YOUR OFFER AND I-I J-JUST-“ Harley rambled on trying to explain himself but he was cut off when Peter raised his hand to get Harley to stop talking.
“Hey i-it’s okay, I mean it was just the heat of the moment or something like that r-right?” Peter said and letting out an embarrassed nervous laugh.
“Y-yeah, just some impulse or something.” Harley said letting out a embarrassed laugh as well.
The two of them looked away from each other, both of their faces a bright shade of red. Now feeling the awkward silence tension, the two of them went back to the tower. When they got back Natasha was in the living room and asked them where they went and if they had fun, and instead answering they both went to their rooms. However, she saw that both of their faces were a light red, and saw how face they walked passer her. A little confused and concerned hoping they didn’t get into a fight, she went to find Tony so he can help. She explained what happened and wanting to help, Natasha offered to talk to Peter, and Tony went to talk to Harley.
Peter’s side.
Natasha knocked on Peter’s door and waited for a response, she knocked again and opened the door slowly and saw Peter face down on his bed, face buried in his pillow.
“Peter is everything okay? Come on baby spider what’s wrong?” Natasha asked softly not wanting to upset Peter in anyway.
Peter got up from his pillow and face Natasha.
“Promise you won’t tell anyone?” He asked nervously, she nodded giving him a comforting hand on his shoulder.
“HarleykissedmetodaywhenwewenttoCentralPark.” Peter said quickly as he felt his face heat up.
“Okay, say it again. This time slowly.” She said in a calm but comforting voice.
He took a deep breath and repeated what he said.
“Harley kissed me today when we went to Central Park.” He repeated burying his face in his pillow.
Natasha’s eyes went wide and rubbed Peter’s back.
“Did you hate it?” She asked
“What?” Peter asked his face still in his pillow
“Did you hate it?” She asked again trying to hide her laughter knowing she and the team already knows how him and Harley like each other.
“No….” Peter said in a shy voice.
“So you like him then?” She asked trying to hide her smirk.
“Maybe a little….” Peter said.
“Do you want to him to be your boyfriend?” She asked in a bit of a teasing tone
“I don’t know….. Maybe… a bit.” Peter said softly feeling his face going red
“Peter…” She said wanting to Peter to confess.
“Okay! yes I want to be Harley to be my… boyfriend!” Peter confessed as he mumbled the last part.
Natasha wrapped Peter in a hug, which made him hugged back. After a minute or two they pulled away from each other and he asked her what was on his mind.
“What if he doesn’t want to be my boyfriend though? What if i’m just a fling or something?” Peter asked in a sad tone.
She rolled her eyes and gave him her opinion.
“Seeing how he flirted with you the second you walked in when he got here, and how the two of you were all cuddled together the other night. I’m pretty sure he feels the same way.” She reassured him with a gentle smile.
“Still what if it was just playful flirting?” Peter asked still unsure about the whole thing.
“Peter it’s clear that you like him and he likes you, so instead of hiding in your room go out there and ask him out.” Natasha said in a gentle encouraging voice.
“You sound like Ned and Mj.” Peter said letting out a small laugh and gave Natasha a small smile
Natasha smiled back to Peter and went to pull him into a hug, which made him hug her back.
“Thanks auntie Nat.” Peter said as he smiled at her
Peter got up from his bed and went to Harley’s room, while he did that. Natasha asked FRIDAY where Clint and she told her he was in the kitchen. As she went to the kitchen to find Clint making a sandwich, she went over to him and handed his twenty bucks.
When Peter was in front of Harley’s door, he was a little scared, but taking a deep breath he knocked on the door and said.
“Harley? it’s me. Can we talk?”
