Spider-Man 0X

Ch: 58 [Love triangle]

[First person POV] [Peter's POV]

"Can you believe it? Spiderman robbing banks!" Gwen said as she was making sandwiches for her father.

I tried to look surprised, "Yeah... That's just insane."

"I know! What was he thinking?" She shook her head. "This isn't like him at all."

"I think someone's trying to frame him," I suggested.

"You think so?" Gwen looked at me curiously.

"Well, yeah. Why would Spiderman rob a bank? It doesn't make sense. And he was seen at every bank robbery, so it's not like he didn't want to be identified," I explained. "It's just not logical."

"Hmm... Yeah, why would he announce to the world that he's a thief? He could have just stolen the money and gotten away without anyone knowing it was him," Gwen nodded thoughtfully.

"Exactly," I nodded. "That way he could have kept on robbing and committing crimes, but instead, he chose to announce, 'Hey, look, I am a thief!'"

"Well, the truth will come out eventually. I'm sure the real Spiderman will show up and prove his innocence. Maybe even catch that fake one," Gwen said as she began to pack her father's breakfast.

"Oh, I'm sure he will do more than just catch him," I chuckled. "Anyway, want to go with you?"

"Yeah, that would be nice. We can take the train together," She smiled.

"Train? You ever drove a sports car?"

"A sports car?" Gwen looked at me with wide eyes. "You own a sports car?!"

"Well, give me a few minutes. By the time you get ready, I'll bring it here," I kissed her lips.

"Okay, hurry back." She gave me a kiss and I went out of the house.

I walked out of the building and into the street. My mind was filled with various thoughts on this new situation. A fake guy who wants to frame me... Humm... I racked my mind, trying to remember all the comics I'd read in my first life. There are just too many of them, but... I stopped in the middle of the street as a name popped into my mind, 'Chameleon!'

I need to see that footage in NYPD. I need to be sure. If it's him then things are going to get pretty complicated from here on. I don't mind fighting against the NYPD, but if the S.H.I.E.L.D gets involved, then things are going to get really messy. Then again, I doubt that Fury is that dumb not to notice that it isn't Spiderman in that footage. Fuck! Just when I was thinking of solving Josh's daughter's case, one villain after another kept popping up, all once at a time. Mutants, Abomination, Ice Lady, then Kingpin, now Chameleon and if I'm not wrong, then the next one would be Green Goblin. It's like those Spiderman games where multiple villains pop up and make life hell for Spiderman.

I sighed heavily, 'Guess, it's time to up my game. First, find Josh's daughter at Oscorp, then kill Chameleon, after that, we will see...'

I went to the garage. May and MJ are still sleeping since it's only 6 am. I drove my Aston Martin back to Gwen's house. She locked the door and I got out and gave her the keys, "You think you can handle it?"

"Have I ever told you how I stole a Lambo from NYPD's garage?" Gwen smirked as she took the keys and entered the driver's seat and I took the passenger seat beside her.

"You did what?" I looked at her in shock.

"What? I didn't steal it, exactly. I borrowed it. I brought it back before they noticed it was missing. They never figured out it was me," She laughed.

"Damn. Why did you do that?" I asked in amusement.

"Don't know. Might be because I got my license and was going through a rebellious phase. I wanted to get in trouble. Get my dad's attention. But I turned back in the mid-way. I realized that stealing a car wasn't something I should do as a cop's daughter. Wouldn't want my dad to get into trouble because of me."

"Wow."

"Yeah, well, we all have done some stupid things once or twice in our life," Gwen laughed as she started the car.

"Well, I guess we all have..." I said, thinking about the past. Well, not that it matters anymore.

Gwen drove the car like a pro. We chatted on the way and before we knew it, we were at the Police station. She went in and gave her dad his breakfast and came out in a few minutes.

"So, do you have any plans for today?" Gwen asked me as she entered the car.

"Yup, got a few important things to take care of. So, I'll be busy for the week, but as promised, we are going on a date next week, alright?"

"Okay," Gwen nodded as she drove back to her house. She stopped the car and turned toward me, "You want to talk about the last night?"

"Sure, if you want to," I shrugged.

"Yeah, I do... I mean, it was great. You were great. And I enjoyed it very much," She blushed slightly. "And I was wondering did you mean it? You know..." She trailed off, looking away from me.

"I meant every word I said," I said sincerely as I cupped her cheeks. "You are a wonderful girl and I'm really happy that I met you. You have become really special to me, Gwen. And as I said, I won't be holding back anymore." I pressed my lips against hers and kissed her softly.

After we parted, she was blushing and had a happy smile on her face.

"And if you want to know if I love you or not, or if it was just a slip of mouth in that situation... It wasn't. I do love you, Gwen," I told her confidently.

"You do?" She whispered.

"I do. I don't know since when exactly, but I have started to love you and I can't stop myself from loving you. However, I also want you to be sure about what you want. Because once you say yes to me, there's no going back. If you say yes to me, then it's for real. I won't let you go even if you want me to," I said seriously, looking directly into her eyes.

She looked at me with her beautiful blue eyes and nodded, "What about MJ?"

"What about her?"

"Aren't you two dating?"

"Come on, I told you everything about her situation."

"I know, but she still likes you. She cares for you a lot," Gwen sighed. "Shit! Peter... There's something you should know."

"Ok. I'm listening."

"MJ... She... She called me last night, just before you came. She told me that she wanted to talk to me about something important."

"Really? Did she say what it was about?" I asked in surprise. I wonder why she called Gwen when she could have talked to me at home. Wait! I know where this is going...

"We talked a lot and she confessed her feelings about you and asked for my help to set things up between you two. She couldn't gather up the courage to say it to you since she is basically living on your expenses. She said that you might think of her as a gold digger if she confessed her feelings to you," Gwen said softly. "She told me that she tried to hide her feelings for you, but she can't anymore. She wants you to notice her. She wants you to be with her. She loves you, Peter. I... I was supposed to be helping her but... Fuck! Last night..."

I sighed and rubbed my head. This is a mess.

"I know it's my fault," Gwen looked down in guilt. "I shouldn't have done that. We shouldn't have done that. But how could I betray my own feelings? I... I just couldn't..."

We sat there without a word for a few minutes...

"Well, that's kinda messed up. To think both you and MJ have feelings for me... Shit... This is one of those fanfictions, isn't it? You know, those stories where a guy gets a harem of beautiful girls. Hahaha..." I laughed wryly. "... That sounded bad, didn't it? So, what now?" I asked.

"I think it's better to come clean with her before things get bad. I'm sure she will hate me for what I've done, but... I guess, I deserve it," Gwen said dejectedly.

Damn it! I ain't a pro when it comes to relationships. It's a fucking mess. But I do know one thing. I won't lose any girls in this life. They are all mine.

"Well, how about I talk to MJ? You know, clear things out. You know, give her some time to calm down. Then we can all sit together and talk this over."

"You sure?" She asked worriedly.

"Yeah," I nodded. "Look, it's not your fault. It's not MJ's fault either. It's no one's fault. We all have feelings, right? We can't control our feelings. The only thing we can do is decide what to do with them. And I don't intend to lose anyone. So, I'll talk with her. You don't have to worry about it. I'll take care of it, alright? Just give me a few days, yeah?"

Gwen looked at me with tears in her eyes and hugged me tightly, "Peter... Thank you!"

"A good luck kiss would be appreciated," I said teasingly.

She smiled and kissed my lips.

As much as I would like to talk things through, I don't have time for now...

Before me were all the parts I took out from those laser rifles and the materials I ordered already came today. Time to craft some gadgets. Maybe a couple of deadly weapons with these laser tech babies would do nicely.

So, let's see what I can do with these.
