To the citizen’s of New York, Spider-Man is an unbreakable force fighting for those who cannot fight for themselves.
Although Spider-Man can do it all without hesitation, the man under the mask is still human.
It is late when Peter crawls through the window of your shared apartment in Downtown Brooklyn, a small but cozy place curated to be a sanctuary from the responsibilities of the outside world.
A heavy dip in the bed wakes you from a restless sleep, and an arm around your waist brings a soft smile to your face.
“Hey bug boy,” you say as sleep leaves you, “Anything we need to patch up?”
He sighs, “One robbery, two muggings, and a lost, drunk college kid. I’ll be fine.”
Your brows wrinkle at his reply, etching your face with concern, and turning over to face him.
It’s not often that Peter replies so vaguely. Usually, he is spiting out stories of his epic takedowns and goofy quips that render the perpetrators confused.
“I know you, Peter. Something is bothering you.”
“I just need you. You’re a cure-all,” he says, pressing a like peck to your worried lips.
“Ok, but take off the suit first, baby. I just washed the sheets, I don’t need them smelling like sweat and spandex.” A light chuckle escapes him as he rises to shed the red and blue suit.
As he reaches for clean boxers, you notice how tense he holds himself, knots riddled across his back and shoulders.
With fresh boxers and wearing the Christmas pajama pants you bought for him as a joke, he slumps himself on top of you, circling his arms under your back and clings to you like a spider monkey.
“I think you forget how heavy you are being pure muscle and all,” the words escape your mouth with strain as he pushed all the air out of your lungs.
This warrants another chuckle from him, and despite being a little crushed, happiness sparks in your heart to bring him a little joy despite his harrowing superhero occupation.
It is not uncommon for Peter to crawl into your arms and rest his head over your heart. As you understand it, the beating is grounding, proving to him that you are real. He sacrifices his life as Peter Parker to give life to Spider-Man, neglecting his humanity and nurturing the responsibility thrust upon him at an early age.
As his girlfriend, you take it as your responsibility to provide him a safe space to exist as Peter, repairing his heart and calming his anxieties with gentle love. Spider-Man may never rest, but Peter Parker clearly desperately needs it.
“I love you, you know that right?” he asks, gazing up at you with tired eyes.
“I do, my love. And I love you.”
It is said with all the adoration for this poor man in your arms. The intention in your words is simple but heavy: you just want him to feel loved.
There have been many nights of him telling stories of the ones he’s lost, his parents, his friends, his Aunt May, his former girlfriend, his team, and his mentor. After giving him space to cry and feel the emotions of them being gone, you’ve often shed your own tears after sleep has welcomed him, in disbelief at just how much being Spider-Man has cost him.
He raises a soft hand to cradle your face as he looks upon you, tears prickling his eyes. He raises himself on his arms and presses the softest of kisses to your lips, pouring his appreciation into you.
“You’re too good to me,” he confesses as his mouth melts with yours.
“No, honey, don’t say that.” Another kiss. “You deserve every bit of this.”
A bright smile takes over his face and he plants one last gentle kiss to your forehead, then rests his head back on your chest over your heart.
Running your fingers through his messy hair, a relaxed sigh echoes through his chest and carries him into sleep. You follow soon after, knowing your handsome spidey finally has someone protecting him.
