Chapter 251: Re-spin the Webs

I woke up early the next day and walked down to find Peter and MJ already sitting at the dining table. MJ was fixing up a plate of pancakes while Peter read the newspaper.

I chuckled aloud gaining their attention. Peter raised an eyebrow, "what's so funny?"

"I never imagined I could ever do the whole perfect family thing," I smiled, "mom cooks breakfast while the dad reads the newspaper. Looks so perfect."

MJ smiled, "yeah, this is what your life's going to be one day."

"No offence, but no way," I shivered, "there's no way I would ever have that ugly goatee."

"What? You don't like the goatee?" Peter asked shocked.

"No, who are you trying to be? Tony Stark?" I scoffed, "now a full beard, that would be badass. Can you imagine it? Chicks would dig the beard!"

MJ chuckled as she leaned down and kissed Peter's cheek, "I prefer the goatee, that way I don't feel like I'm kissing a porcupine," Peter smiled winking at me.

I threw my hands up, "whatever. As far as I'm concerned this is version of my life that might not even happen."

"Why do you think that?" Peter asked.

"I've been thinking a lot about what you said last night. A greater responsibility. So, if I'm not going to be Spider-man, I honestly don't know what I should do," I replied sitting down.

Peter raised an eyebrow as he sighed and put his paper away. "Let me give you some ideas Pete, the future isn't set in stone, it never is. The world needs people like you in it, so, whatever you do, remember, with great power, comes great responsibility."

I snorted, "when did I get so sagely?"

Peter smiled, holding MJ's hand, "I think it was a few weeks after I met her"

MJ chuckled, "so are you saying all he needs is a good woman to set him straight?"

Peter chuckled, "maybe," he turned to me, "do you Peter?"

I looked away, a memory of Felicia in my head, "yeah, I did. Felicia Hardy."

MJ humned, "were you close?"

I shrugged, I took out my phone and showed the pic I took on our first date, "we were. She's was actually my best friend. We fought crime together, took classes together… I'm guessing you don't have the same relationship?"

Peter and MJ looked at the picture as the former shook his head, "no. I didn't meet her until I finished college and was few years into my superhero career. I stopped her trying to rob a jewelry store."

I chuckled, "same. And then when Felicia Hardy walked into my classroom the next day I knew that she was the Black Cat. And then shit happened, blah blah blah...what happened to your Felicia?"

Peter passed me the phone, "she married Flash and had a kid. But she-"

"-She what?!" I cried out, completely shocked. I did love May's stories, but I never did read them all, obviously I missed a few critical issues, "she married Flash Thompson?!"

MJ blinked, "yes?"

I gaped, "fuck me! How?! She married that moron?! That bullying pieces of shit?!"

Peter chuckled, "oh, right, I forgot, he still bullies you doesn't he?"

I scoffed, "he tries. I use big words to confuse him and so he kind of just stays away."

"Well Flash eventually becomes a very good friend," Peter explained as he sipped his coffee.

I blinked, "you're joking."

"No," MJ smiled, "they actually go out for drinks once in awhile." She placed three plates filled with pancakes on the table, "I swear, you spiders and your appetite."

I grumbled, "that's it, this reality is messed up. I have a goatee, end up with MJ, Felicia married a moron and apparently he and I become best friends. "

Peter chuckled, "don't worry, you'll get used to it."

"No way man, Flash's nothing more than a bully, there's no way I'm ever going to be his friend!"

MJ laughed, "give it time Tiger." I grumbled.

Just then May can down and stopped me and blinked, "oh, right, damn I was hoping yesterday was a really messed up dream."

"Sorry kiddo," Peter chuckled.

I smiled, turning to Peter and MJ, "hey, since I'm technically her dad, can I like ground her?"

"No," May said.

"Yes," MJ smiled.

"Mom!"

"What? He's technically your dad," she chuckled.

We all chuckled, May just grumbled, rolling her eyes at me. We sat down for breakfast and May turned to me, "so what are you going to do today?"

I blinked, "what do you mean?"

May shrugged, "I mean what are you going to do? You can't just sit here all day can you?"

I hummed, "I guess...well I honestly don't know."

"You should go to school," Peter suggested with a smile.

"What?!" May and I cried out at once.

"It doesn't matter if you are in another world, school is good for you, it's important."

I scoffed, "I don't know about you future me, but I work with Reed Richards and Susan Storm in the Baxter building for a living, I doubt school can teach me things I don't already know."

Peter raised an eyebrow, "you work at the Baxter building?"

"Yup! Even have a few patents under my name!"

"Oh...do you have a degree?"

I blinked, "no..."

"Then you need to go to school."
