Marvel Imagines

I Need You To Know-Peter Parker [TH]

So this is my first try at a marvel imagine and I'm doing this for @spiderneds who is feeling sick today. I hope you like it and I hope you get well soon :)

"Hey ____, can I meet you at your window? I'm not in trouble or anything... I just want to see you." Peter Parker, your best friend in the entire world, muttered into the phone.

He had told you about Spider-Man last year.

Ever since then, he would show up at your window beaten and bleeding. You would push back tears and patch him up to the best of your ability.

It was terrifying to know that every day could be his last day with you.

There would be no more laughs, no more jokes, no more careless grins. It would all be over before you even got to tell him how you really feel.

It would be over before you even got to say....

"Sure Pete, I'll leave it unlocked for you." You whispered.

It was midnight on a Friday and you knew that you should be sound asleep with the prospect of the weekend on your mind, but you had been unable to sleep.

A new villain was terrorizing New York, and that meant that Spider-Man was officially on duty. You had been tossing and turning for hours, nightmarish images of a wounded Peter keeping you wide awake.

You were jolted back to reality by a knock on your window and a dorky red and blue costume quietly lifting the glass to make room for him to come in. You grinned as your best friend crawled into your room.

"Hey Pete, what's-"

And then he was hugging you and weeping into your shoulder. He threw his mask behind you and he cried and cried.

Fear struck your heart. The only time you had ever seen him this grief stricken was when his Uncle Ben had....

"Peter, what's wrong?" You asked gently.

He didn't reply for a moment, just held you tighter.

"He said he was going to take you. He he was going to hurt you until I helped him. He said if I didn't help him he was going to..." He stopped himself. "I can't lose you ____, I just can't." He muttered brokenly.

Hearing the quiver in his voice made tears of your own begin to trail down your face. Peter was your best friend and to see him so afraid broke you.

"Peter, I'm not going anywhere. Not now, not ever ok?" You whispered.

"I love you ____" Peter said into your shoulder.

Your heart stopped and it felt as if time itself had stopped along with it.

"What?" You asked.

He finally pulled away and looked at you, eyes red and a painful looking bruise on his cheek that he had neglected to mention earlier.

"____  ____  I love you. I was scared to say it before, but tonight I realized that if I keep waiting... I could lose you without you ever really knowing how I feel. And I guess that I could lose you now because you might not feel the same way about me, but I don't care any more. I love you. I love you so much and I need you to know that. I need you to know that you are the most beautiful girl I've ever seen and that from the moment I met you I was in love you, even though I didn't know I was. I need you to know that if anything ever happened to you... I would never recover. I need you to know that I love you more than anything and that I would do everything to keep you safe. And if you don't feel the same, that's ok. I just need you to know that. I need you to know that I love you." Peter said.

You stood there, looking at the boy that had just confessed his love to you. Looking at your best friend who was so afraid to lose you. Looking at the person who had been through it all with you.

"I love you too Peter." You said.

You both smiled, still holding onto one another because gosh you loved each other. You may not have everything together at school and you may both be so afraid for each other, but nothing could break this.

Nothing could make you stop loving Peter and nothing could make Peter stop loving you.
