you were a bit of a mechanic, and whenever noahâs car got wrecked youâd usually help him fix it up, until you find out itâs an..Alien car thing??
âJeez, Noah. This car is a beauty for sure but maybe you shouldnât get such an old car.â You rolled out from under the car with a wrench in your hand. âHaha..maybe I should do my research next time.â
You and Noah had known each other for around two years and were pretty close friends. He had recently bought a Porsche, silver with blue stripes down the middle. Of course you were happy for him, he even took you on joyrides! Itâs just that you hadnât expected him to be able to..afford it? Not saying thatâs heâs poor but Porsches are mad expensive, you chose to mind your business though.
After you finish up, your phone starts to ring. âSorry Noah, gotta take this.â Once you exit the garage, his gaze immediately fixates on the car. âCmon! Canât we just tell her already? You torture me every time I have to stay quiet during our joyrides!â Mirage whined. âI just donât wanna scare her, Mirage. I mean your a giant machine!â Hearing this, Mirage gasped. âGiant Machine?! Weâve been through thick and thin and thatâs what you call me? Besides, didnât you try to beat me with a pipe when you first met me? Sure sheâll be freaked but someones there to reassure her this time, cough cough, you.â Even though they were currently communicating through the radio, you could still hear the sass in Mirages voice.
Noah thought about it, and he couldnât deny that Mirage was right. Besides you would find out sooner or later anyway. âFine, letâs wait for her to get back.â Hearing this, Mirage cheered. âWoohoo! I canât wait!â
.
.
âIâm back, sorry that took a while.â You smiled as you came back in the garage. Noah looked a little timid so you asked him if he was alright. âYeah, yeah I am. I just uh- need to show you something. Please donât freak out too much..â Hearing him say this made you nervous. Noah barely acted like this, so he might be very serious. And âplease donât freak out?â What the hell was this man about to show you?
As you were looking at Noah, you began to hear shifting noises from the Porsche. Once you looked over, you saw a machine guy. Wait wtf? âWhat the fuck..â Eyes widened, jaw almost on the floor..what were you looking at right now? You subconsciously began to back up. âListen I know he looks like a bad guy but trust me, he means no harm!â âBad guy?! Whatâs up what all these names youâve been calling me man? Not cool dude, not cool.â
The both of them looked at you, who was still visibly shaken. In attempt to befriend you, Mirage walked up to you and kneeled to your level. âThe names Mirage, I already know who you are.â He smiled. You were pretty scared at first, but after seeing his friendly attitude you loosened up a little. âOkay..yeah, Iâm Y/n.â Mirage grinned and patted your head as he stood.
âSee? That went great! You were worried about nothinâ!â Mirage looked at Noah who had a relieved look on his face. âWait a minute, if youâre the car does that mean..you heard, everything I said?â You asked, praying the answer was no. âYup!â fuck. âHumans have the most interesting stories.â You glare at Noah, him just smiling looking in the other direction knowingly.
Before you could scold Noah, you begin to hear that same shifting noising. You look in amazement finally being able to see Mirages transformation. âNow that I can talk, whatâd you say we go on a joyride? The three of us? You can sing your heart out just like you always do.â Noah walks up to passenger side and opens the door for you, gesturing you to get in. âMâlady?â He teased, knowing you were embarrassed. âIâm so gonna kill you for this, Noah.â
.
.
âI think Iâm gonna vomit..what part of that was a âjoyrideâ to you?!â You say, wobbling out of the car. âYouâre gonna have to get used to it, trust me.â Noah said, glaring at Mirage. âWhat can I say? I gotta go fast! Haha, get it? Cause itâs what Sonic says?â Mirage joked, resulting in no laughter âAnyways im going to get some food, want me to bring you back some, Y/n?â Noah asked heading towards the door. âAh, sure.â
Once Noah left it was just you and Mirage. âWell well well, just the two of us sweetheart! Yâknow I donât think we got to properly get to know each other, so why donât we talk a bit about ourselves, yeah?â Blushing a bit at the name, you agreed. âSure, why not?â
.
.
About an hour past and you realize how much you enjoy talking to Mirage. Heâs so enticing, nothing like the last men youâve been with, literally. âYou listenin?â Mirage asked, noticing your daze. âOh, uhm, yes sorry, what did you say?â After a few seconds of silence, Mirage chuckled. âOhh, I get it. You were so mesmerized by my dashing looks, huh? I knew youâd fall for me.â Your eyes widened, face heated. âWhat?! D-donât get cocky..â
Mirage moved closer to you and lifted your chin with a single finger. âCmon..just admit it. I have an affect on you.â His optics bored into your orbs. ââŚfuck it.â You leaned forward and pressed your lips to his. He was kinda surprised, but quickly reciprocated. Mirages lips were like nothing youâve kissed before, so smooth yet metallic, nonetheless very pleasing.
After a few seconds you two pulled apart, an immediate smirk plastering his face. âI guess Love at first sight really is real, huh?â You smiled up at him and leaned closer. âI guess so, wanna prove it?â And with that you both locked lips once again, a new relationship emerging.
a/n: title is very much inspired by the cas song :> also this kind of an frenemies to lovers sort of thing. this is short but iâm thinking of making another part.

âSo, where the hell is that spot guy?â You question
âI donât know, maybe if YOU hadnât let him get away, we wouldâve kicked his ass by now.â Miles replied
This was so typical of him, always placing the blame on you.
âOkay first of all you let him go twice already, if you actually knew how to manage being a âheroâ you wouldnât have let the damn spot get away.â
You two silently swung, looking out for a white and black humanoid looking figure, it was nights like these that working with Miles got difficult, sometimes it would be entirely unbearable, that boys ego was way too big.
After swinging through what felt like all of New York, you guys had no luck finding him, and sat on a ledge that gave you guys a view of the whole city.
âDo you know why he has those spots?â
âYes.â
âDoes it involve you?â
Heâs quiet for a moment, the only thing thatâs audible was the buzz of speeding cars.
âSorta, when that thing happened with all those scientists, I guess I did something that caused him to turn into that, and now heâs trynna get his revenge by coming after me.â
âTrouble certainly does have a way of finding you.â You silently chuckled to yourself, and decided it was time to go home.
âIf you spot that guy, and need some backup, which you certainly will, give me a call.â
âI certainly wonât, but aight.â
You tried entering your house as silently as you could, but you knew your mother would be quick to reprimand you.
âPues que chingado, como crees que puedes llegar a la casa cuando te de la pinche gana!?â
âSorry ma, I lost track of time.â You tried your best to sound as honest as you could.
âWell thatâs why I bought you a goddamn phone, iâm starting to think I should just sell it to someone who will actually use it. Ya vete a tu cuarto, y haz tarea o algo.â She went back to cleaning and listening to Luis Miguel loudly on the speaker.
Saving New York was sometimes not worth getting yelled at as soon as you walk in the door, but whatever, with great power comes great responsibility I guess.
You were lost in a book when you heard the quiet ping of the notification sound, the notification was from Miles.
miles đ: yo
you: what
miles đ: i got sum info abt the spot guy, come to my house and we could talk abt it and patrol a bit
you: you want me to go to ur house? if u wanna ask me out js say that đ
miles đ: ik ur ego is inflated but trust i would never ask u outđ
you: mm okay wtv
miles đ: you want me to or what? đ
you: fuck no calm ur ass down.

you: omw btw
You lightly tapped on his window, there was a sound of a latch being flicked up then it was followed by a quiet creak.
His room was filled with posters and action figures neatly propped up on shelves, along with some unopened boxes of collectibles, his bed was undone, and the floor was slightly messy.
âAlright, so what did you want to tell me that was so important you had to make me come all the wa-,â
âThe spot dude isnât just after me, heâs after you too, heâs going after you because youâre a spider person, and I guess after his experience with me, he decided that we were both equally bad.â He seemed to have a semi nervous tone in his voice, has thumbs were fidgeting around with each other and his eyes couldnât focus on just one thing.
âOh,â You spoke âwell thatâs great.â
âI guess weâre just gonna have to get this fucker before he can get to us,â you said
âYeah,â he huffed
And with that you decided to get a good nights rest, you needed to save up your strengths because you definitely knew that tomorrow, that abomination of a human being was gonna turn up, and you are going to be absolutely ready for whatever is coming your way.
Summary: Seeing a familiar face but different person. A person you once loved.
Warning: Spoilers for the movie Across the Spider-verse, slight angst
P.s: I don't know how to feel about this chapter,im sorry that the update is slow but i believe in quality over quantity <3 enjoy spiders!
Today have been moving so fast,first you found out how Gwen got here as you follow Miles after he left the party to catch up on Gwen. The only reason you follow him was because you promised mama Rio.
(Flashback)
You watch as Miles walk away from the party down to the fire escape stairs standing beside mama Rio. You can sense her restless and worry feeling for her own son as you remembered how much Miles wanted to leave from here,to see somewhere new,spread his wings.
âItâs okay mama Rio,you know how Miles is, he'll be alrightâYou hold her hand try to reassure her. mama Rio sigh turning her head looking at you with a worry expression.
âI know he is butâŚIâm scared of him wanting to grow up so fast, you both are just teens my dearâShe held both of your shoulder turning you to face her,firm grasp on your shoulders she says âPromise me dearâŚwhen me and Jeff are not aroundâŚpromise me you keep him safe,look out for himâ
You put your hand on one of her palm and nod your head âPromise,mamaâ
(End flashback)
How much are you willing to protect him? Your best friend? Currently you held a strong grip on his arm as you watch this Spider-manâŚwith a name Miguel O'Hara is threatening to keep Miles him here in this spider club house thing. Because he is an anomalyâŚand Miguel also want to keep you here because youâre supposedâŚto die.
âBecause of you Miles,she was supposed to die!âYou were destined to die at the colliderâŚwhen youâre trying to help your mentor,Peter Parker. At the hand of the Prowler,uncle Aaron.  The canon event for your mentor is to lose his uncle BenâŚto lose you,his pupil. Â
To know youâre supposed to die is like a punch in the guts⌠you feel sick in the stomach to know youâre not supposed to survive or even breath another day.
Currently you held Miles behind you shielding him from Miguel as he try to destroy the barrier that have been made from the big spider machine that transport any anomaly back to their original dimension. You stare wide eyes at Miguel who is trying his best to stop you both,to see this man trying to tear apart the barrier. Fear grips around you. Suddenly the machine finish its job making both of you float and transported back to your homeâŚor so you though. Â
âAaahhh!!â you  screamed as you are transported into the portal moving so fast it spit out both spiders out on top of a rooftop,the rain pouring down makes everything slippery as you and Miles rolled and slide through the concrete. You and Miles are slightly injured after getting kicked,slammed and thrown around like a rag doll by other spiders. You prop yourself up on your elbow shaking your head slightly, your ears ringing your visions are double as you try to locate where Miles is. âM-milesâŚ?âyour visions focus to see him his mask off breathing heavily trying to slow down his heart as he lean back to the wall,hundreds of thoughts running through his head before he stands up âI need to get back home!âHe runs and jump from the rooftop swing himself away.
âMiles! Wait!âYou stand up try to catch up to him but the pain on your left leg makes you limping before swing your web following him. Miles keep on swinging as fast as he can to his house,to find his dad,his mom. You follow behind him trying to get his attention from doing anything irrational.
Miles stick outside of the wall of his room opening the window and went inside, his heart racing as he take in deep breaths. You swing towards the window and you yelped as you landed on your injured leg holding yourself up on the wall, just as you climb in you heard the knob to the door turn you reach for anything nearby to cover your suit,a sweater. You grip the sweater together tightly trying your best to cover your suit.
The door to the room open slightly follow by a voice, âMiles?â
 You and Miles look at the door, to see his mom holding a laundry basket in her other hand,she look at her son.Rio look confuse to see her son but Miles desperate voice make her even worried.
âMom..there is something coming for us,somethin terribleâMiles says
âMiles youâre talking crazy whats going on?âRio walk closer to her son her eyes keep darting towards you.
Miles continue âHis name is SpotâŚhe is our nemesis, and we gonna stop him. I know you knowâŚwe been lying to you,itâs because that I knewâŚyou wonât love me the same. You wonât look at (N/N) the same way too. Then I went out there and..now im not afraid of anythingâ
âAlways,I donât care what you said,Tu me tiendes?âRio walks closer to him and hold one of his hand trying to reasure her son.
Miles pull away from her before he turn to the side readying himself to do this, he sigh âMomâ and pull the zip down turning to his mom. âI'm spider-manâhe pull his jacket apart showing his mom his spider suit. âA-and (Y/N) is also the spider-man/spider-womanâ
Rio just look at her son in confusion before she ask âW-Whoâs Spider-man?â
You frown slightly as you are witnessing everything unfold,surely everyone in Brooklyn knows who you guys are. Every news and thousands of video on YouTube telling the world about the spider duo shoving the information to every.single.person.
âAnd who is (Y/N)?âshe ask again tilting her head slightly looking at her son.
The moment she ask that you are stun,your eyes widened again looking through the window,are you hearing this right?. You blink a few times before, keeping your eyes at the familiar woman in front of you yet something in your gut is telling you she is not the same woman who would give you hug and kiss your forehead.
she let out a chuckle before giving his son a small smile âMiles you been keeping a secret of having a partner from me hm?âshe turns to walk out of the room with the laundry basket in her hand.
Your spider sense goes off as you watch this woman who look exactly like your mama Rio,your brows knitted together watching Miles run out of his room following his âmomâ to the living room trying his best to explain.
You stuck at your spot,with your thoughts run haywire at what is happening,why she doesnât remember you?, why she acts like you never met?, why does her aura feel different?
You shake your head,you need to focus. You keep watching as Miles is talking to his âmomâ before both of your attention drawn to the sound of a door knob unlocking at the main entrance of the house.
You press yourself closer peeking through the window still confuse while Miles seems to figure out what is happening looking scared at the door.
The door open to reveal, Aaron Davis. Miles supposedly dead uncle âU-uncle Aaron?â Miles mumble looking at the familiar figure walking through the door. Your eyes widen seeing the familiar figure walk infront of the open door, Uncle Aaron?. Your eyes darted to Miles,he look like he is seeing a ghost from the past then it all click in your head. You are in a different place, a place with no Spider-man to protect, a completely different dimensionâŚyouâre in a dimension of where the spider that bit Miles originally came from. Earth-42.
âOh my godâŚâyou mumble to yourself pressing yourself to the wall looking up at the sky mumbling âShitâŚshit,shitâ
You gulp as the anxious feeling and fear grip your throat like a choke hold. How in the hell you and Miles are going to get out of this? You see Uncle Aaron push Miles away slightly making a comment about him taking out his braids?
Miles turning his head making eye contact,you can see It in his eyes. He is scared. He turn his head to his uncle following him out of the house climbing up the stairs.
You crawl up the wall following them as in your head is screaming something is wrong,everything is. Both of you are in danger. You pull yourself up hiding behind the many scraps and metal on top of the rooftop keeping an eyes on Miles. As you walk further to the front your eyes looking around the place before you discover something even more heart breakingâŚon the wall Is a graffiti Of Jefferson Davis with a writing of âRest in Powerâ.
Your heart starting to beat faster fear grips you fully, your head snap towards Miles just to see him got knocked out falling straight to the floor.
âMiles!âyou jumped out from where you hide swinging your web to his body to pull him to you, to run. But your web got cut by a flashing purple,whatever it is that thing is fast. You ready yourself shooting out both of your web at it but the thing catches it pulling you to it before your head is punch with something metal. Your body flew back but you got yourself on your knee shaking your head to get rid of the ringing in your ears. You push forward charging at where its standing over Miles but suddenly something stinging comes from the back of your neck you hiss reaching your hand to pull whatever it is. Itâs a fucking sleeping dart, shit you though to yourself but you try to walk to Miles body but you starting to see double and everything is swaying from side to side. You fall to your hand and knees fighting the urge to pass out.
The figure came closer to you kneeling down to your level lifting your head by gripping your chin to look at the purple Mask before a distorted voice says âduerme, araĂąitaâyour head slips from his hand landing on the floor pass out.
Uncle Aaron walk towards the two limp body before saying âA fierce one ay?âpicking up Miles body and moves to the other one.
âNo,Iâll take this oneâthe figure says before move to pick the limp body slinging it over his shoulder and walk towards the hideout. Aaron shrug and follows them inside.
(Timeskip a few hours later)
You blink as you slowly gaining conscious, you try to move your hands but it stop by a chain that is hanging you up on the ceiling making your feet hover a few inches off the ground. You struggle in your bind hopping it to lose or break but of course,it didnât. You try to press on to your web shooter but to find nothing is on your wrist, shit they take your web shooter. Â
âDont even try, little spiderâYou snap your head to the figure who is wearing a neon mask that illuminates in the darkness. The figure walks closer to you,he walks slowly around you taking in the details of what you are. You are the same as the other one,a spider.
âWhat did you do to Milesâyou hiss out through your teeth trying to look intimidating at the figure,the figure let out a whistle as he stands infront of you. âCalm down,heh itâs not that you can do anything without your web no?âHe reply with a clear smug.
âI can take you down just fine with or without the webâyou glare at the mask,the stupid neon mask that is mocking you. âMaybe you open that stupid mask of yours so I can fuck your face up like a pulpâ
The guy chuckle before saying âYou first little spiderâhe reaches his hand on top of your head gripping your mask. You try to move away your head but its useless as the figure rip your mask off revealing your face glaring at him.
Him on the other hand,didnât expect to see such face staring back at him. The fire in your eyes staring right into his soul, it sparks something in him. He take a good look of how your lips are shaped,how your hair framing your face. He is stunned,shame that you,re with âhimâ.
âOpen yours,what youâre scared now?âyou taunting him when you see him just staring at you. The guy chuckle before he open his mask looking at you with a smirk on his lips.
Too much was running through his mind right now. And him, literally. Miles was currently getting chased by all the Spider people in the HQ. Once he heard that his dad was going to die, he knew he had to get back to his universe , he had to save his dad.
He couldnât trust anyone anymore, not even Gwen. He thought she came back because she missed him, because she wanted to see him again. He thought she came on her own will. His heart wrenched, he wanted things to work out between them, but he shouldâve know, he shouldâve listened to her. âIn every other universe, it doesnât work out.â They werenât even from the same universe , such a fool he was.
Despite all of that, he couldnât flood his mind with his thoughts, not now. He had to find a way to get all of the Spider people off of him and find his way back to the âGo home machine.â
.
.
âGAHHHâ Miles screamed after jumping through the window, still being chased by Miguel. âStop running!â Miguel shouted, on miles tail. He would stop at nothing to make sure Miles didnât get away. âThen stop chasing me!â âYouâre so frustrating!â
âI know heâs your friend, but itâs the only way!â Jess said to Gwen, both after Miles. âBut my gut says-â âThen use your head.â Jess cut her off, before speeding off. Gwen knew she fucked up, she knew Miles wonât forgive her after this. She really did miss him, she really wanted them to work, but with all of this Spider-Verse stuff, it just wasnât the right time.
She saw him getting roughed up by Miguel and Jess, and took it as her chance to catch up to him. Using her webs to web his chest, they make eye contact. The tension is thick, but despite that miles brings his hands up to rip her web off of him. âWait! Miles, please-â She huffed, attempting to catch her breath. âWait for what Gwen?! Iâve heard and seen enough, I donât have time for this. Are you here to stop me from saving my dad too?!â He yelled. This made her eyes widen. Sheâd never seen him like this, and to think sheâs the reason for it? It broke her. âListen I know what it seems like, and Iâm sorry, but I just..I just couldnât tell you.â She had a look of genuineness and sorrow on her face, it almost made Miles give in to her, almost.
â..Whyâd you lead me on like this? I thought you missed me, I thought you came to see what I was up to in life, but no. You came only to catch the spot and then leave.â His face scrunched, he was a second away from ripping the web. âI did miss you! After joining the Spider-Society and learning I could see you again, all that was on my mind was you.â Miles eyes widen, listening as she continued to spill her heart. âIn every other universe, Gwen Stacy falls for Spider Man. And in every other universe, it doesnât work out. Miles, I wish we couldâve been an exception.â
Heâs frozen. Did she technically just confess? Oh how much he just wants to scream out âWe can be,â but he canât bring himself to, not now.
âGo find your dad, miles.â With that, she releases him, watching him web away. Before sheâs out of his view, he turns around to look at her, wondering if thatâll be the last time. He knows that he told himself he couldnât trust her, he knows that he should be focusing on the task at hand, and he knows all what he just told himself. But you know Miles, can never take no for an answer. Not even when it comes to himself.
.
.
âI can do all.â
.
.
He was about to save all universes, save his dad, and save his relationship with Gwen.
Dazai apologizes. Howâs Akutagawa supposed to react?
Note! This is my first ever published story, I donât mind feedback :) Also, I probably didnât write Akutagawa correctly..might be out of character..
When did this happen? How was Akutagawa supposed to react? He didnât know. Happy? Sad? Anger? Regret? He was feeling all of those emotions when those words left Dazaiâs tongue.
âIâm sorry.â
Sorry? Heâs sorry? Dazai knew despite all of his attempts to shake him off, Akutagawa will always try to prove himself worthy.
Akutagawa also knew this, he knew he should hate him. Why would he leave him like this? After all the hurt and trauma Dazai put him through? âWorthless.â âYouâll never make it out in the mafia.â All those words that shot his chest, then come to find out that Dazai left without a word. Despite all of that, Akutagawa never gave up trying to show Dazai that he isnât worthless. That he has grown strong. That he is better than his new subordinate.
Atsushi just brought more fuel to the fire. Why didnât he get the same treatment? Why is he better? Why isnât Akutagawa good enough? âItâs no wonder Dazai left you!â When Atsushi said that, Akutagawa lost it. Not literally, thankfully, but who was he to say that? He didnât know anything.
Akutagawa longed for the day those words would come out Dazais mouth. He thought once he said that heâd be healed, but no. Nothing lifted against his chest. The words Dazai said back then will never be taken back. The trauma he inflicted will never go away.
Then to have the audacity to join the Armed Detective Agency, the good side, the light. Every-time he saw him on the sidelines, he was happy go lucky. Joking around, as if nothing ever happened.
So, what was he supposed to say? Dazai looked genuine, like he was truly sorry. But that didnât change anything. There are recent events that shows Dazai feels otherwise. Like that one time he risked his life just for one phone call with Dazai, just for him to hang up as soon as he got the phone. Not only that, but Atsushi agreed! He knew he was the better subordinate, he knew Dazai actually cared about him.
He just wanted to scream. To cry. This was all too sudden.
âYouâre..sorry? Who am I to believe you actually mean it?â Akutagawa said, but..what if he was? Was that the wrong response? Did that make things worse?
Despite all those thoughts, he oh so wanted to punch him. Let all of his anger out on him. âThatâs all you have to say? Sorry? You never pay me any mind, despite all my futile attempts just to show you that Iâm worthy! Why should I believe anything that comes out your mouth?!â
âYou donât have to. I know what Iâve put you through, and I know that Iâm sorry. Whether you believe me or not is up to you.â As those words came out, Akutagawa felt the tears pricking out his eyes.
Why was he crying? He just wanted to kill him a second ago. Akutagawa felt the world crumbling before him. This didnât change anything, but, there was progress.
As more tears fell, Dazai walked up to him. What was he gonna do? Laugh and say it was a joke? Walk away?
Nothing would prepare him for what happened. Dazai wrapped his arms around Akutagawa and hugged him.
âLet it out.â
As Dazai said that, Akutagawa couldnât hold back anymore. He sobbed against Dazai. All those times he wanted to just cry, but knew he couldnât or else his superior would find him weak, that same man was letting him cry against him.
âIâm sorry I was awful to you. It wasnât your fault.â
Hope you liked it! đŤśđ˝ I wonât post very often, only when Iâm bored.đ
