face it tiger, you just hit the jackpot... the fame and glamour don't last but so what? i'm going to enjoy the ride as long as i can. this is everything i ever wanted... isn't it?... this time little mary jane's in the spotlight!... like scarlet o'hara said, tomorrow is another day!... danger is my middle name. it's monogrammed on all my towels... go get 'em, tiger.

it’s been a week since he’s heard from her, all SILENCE on her end if not for a one worded text telling him she landed. he’s panicked, unknowing to the damage the chameleon caused, instead only the worst scenarios play out in his mind the entire plane ride. what he first chalked up to her being busy, has quickly turned into terror – he can only think of him being SPIDER - MAN finally catching up to her his whole taxi ride to her hotel, fists balled nervously following a knock on her door. his imagination catches up to him, running wild with a MILLION villains that could be waiting for him behind the wall / he doesn’t expect to see her. shoulders drop as defense lowers, anxiety settling as arms wrap around slender frame. ❛ oh my god — mary jane. ❜
her job is all that matters right now. it’s all she has. all she can focus on to keep her mind off the way things were left back home. if she were 10 years younger, she’d have used this as an excuse to make the most of the attention she received, find a chiseled lifeguard who had nothing to offer, but the satisfaction of maybe hurting peter the way he had hurt her. but even the few hours she had to herself were spent alone, if not flipping aimlessly through channels in her room, then walking down the beach with no clear destination in mind. she thinks it’s the room service she had just ordered when she hears a knock at the door – peter the last person she expected to be standing there, a thousand miles purposely between them. she inhales, startled though visage is withdrawn – she doesn’t return the gesture, arms hanging loosely at her side. she resists the urge to crumble against him. her voice is even – cold. ❛
———what’re you doing here? ❜
