011

Megan went out into the streets, heading to the carnival to find Peter. She was tired of the ditching and let downs, so she decided to go after him. But before she could do so, Michelle found her.

"Meg!" Michelle yells out.

"MJ? What are you doing out here?" Megan questioned.

"Um, you left me with Brad and I couldn't just let you be out here alone." She replied.

"Awe, how sweet." Megan said in awe.

"I knew you guys were gonna be here!" They both turn to see Betty and Ned hand in hand, but Ned was looking really nervous for some reason. Megan had to make note to find out why. "That opera? Boring!"

"Betty? Ned?" Megan raised an eyebrow. "Why are you here?"

"We saw you leave and I assumed you went to the carnival, which you did!" Betty says.

"Uh huh, yeah." She faked a laugh. "I gotta go, so..."

"Oh, okay. See ya!" Megan grabbed Michelle's hand and dragged her further into the crowd, hoping she could find Peter.

The music from the carousel and the noises from the crowd were pretty loud, but the sudden rumble in the ground was louder. "What was that?"

Smoke started to appear, which worried both of them. "Something definitely not good."

Lava burst up from the ground, oozing out onto the streets. The lava formed into a giant monster, then everyone began screaming and running, including Megan and Michelle.

"What the hell is that?" Megan yells whilst running for her life.

"I don't know!" Michelle yells back.

Megan and Michelle ended up getting lost in the crowd of people, so Megan hid behind a building and waited for the running crowd to die down. She assumed Michelle would probably make her way back to the hotel, and Michelle's life felt more important than hers.

Michelle noticed Megan was gone when it was too late, and immediately began yelling out for her name. "Megan! Where are you?"

She decided to run in the other direction to find her, which she did quickly. Michelle immediately hugs Megan, thanking god that she didn't actually lose her forever.

"Thank god you're alive." Michelle whispers.

"You too-"

A mysterious device hit the ground and landed a couple feet away from them, and the two decided to look at what was going on. They've look to see what appeared to be Peter distracting the monster they saw pop up earlier, with Mysterio doing the fighting.

"Is that Peter?" Megan questioned.

"Seems like it." She says. "We should go."

"Definitely." After that Michelle began to run, but Megan quickly picks up the device and catches up with her.

While they were running away from anywhere but there, a giant boom occurred, and they had assumed the worst. But really it was the end of whatever that thing was, and they noticed green sparkles in the sky.

"Is it over?" Michelle asked.

"Maybe. Let's just go." Megan took Michelle's hand again for comfort, and they walked back to the hotel.

"This is strictly platonic, right?" She questioned Megan.

"Yeah, why?" Megan replied.

"Good, cause I don't like you like that." Michelle laughed.

"I'm very straight, MJ." Megan said, also laughing.

"Clearly."

Back at the hotel, the two girls took their time to process everything they had just saw. Megan had hidden the device in her backpack, thinking that she should bring it up to Peter eventually, even though she didn't want to talk to him.

Megan was now pacing back and forth, feeling many emotions at once. "I signed up to relax not almost die everywhere I go!"

"Come on, are you really surprised?" Michelle sassed.

"What's that supposed to mean?" She raised an eyebrow.

"We're on a trip and Peter is on it too. And what is Peter-"

"Spider-Man." Megan interrupts. "I know."

A few moments later there was noises from the hallway, and Michelle could easily tell it was Peter and Ned. "So, Peter's not dead, huh? Good."

Megan looks at Michelle confused. "What?"

"You should talk to him." She says. "He's out there."

"And what if I don't?" Megan questioned.

"Then consider Brad having no chance." Let's be real, Brad stood no chance anyway. He was nothing but a snake, and Michelle hates snakes.

"You're so evil." She said with an angry look in her eyes.

Before going to open the door, Megan took a deep breath. Ariana Grande didn't say just keep breathing for nothing! But in all seriousness, Megan thought it would be a decent idea to let Peter back in. Well, at least try to. She was a little bit mad about him ditching her at the opera house.

She took a few moments to contemplate what she was about to do, then told herself "fuck it" and opened the door.

"Hey." Megan emerges from her and Michelle's hotel room, still in her clothes from the opera.

The moment Peter heard her voice he quickly turned to see her. It was a shock that she was being willing to talk to him, and it was the perfect opportunity to give her the necklace.

"Hey." Peter replies, taken aback by her.

"Where did you go?" She questioned him, knowing the answer.

"Um, I didn't feel good." He lied, which she saw right through.

"Really?" Megan raises an eyebrow.

"Would I lie?" That was something Peter said a lot, and Megan noticed it for sure.

"Funny." She let out a fake laugh. "But you're back, so it's whatever."

"Yeah." He says quietly. "So, did you hear?"

"Hear what?" Megan asked.

"We're going back home tomorrow." Peter had just found out through Ned before Megan came out to talk to him, but he pretended to act like he already knew.

"Seriously?"

"Yeah, because of the whole-"

"Monster thing." She cuts him off. "I see."

"Would've been fun to see the rest of Europe." He frowns.

"Yeah, well, goodnight." Megan slowly shuts the door.

"Night." Peter replies. "You look ni-"

Peter gets cut off by the door being shut completely, and he scrunches his face in frustration. He was so desperate, beyond actually. All he wanted was one normal moment, a moment with Megan where he could admit his faults and tell her where his feelings lie.

Megan stood pressed against the door, also frustrated. Why did she think this was a good idea? Why hasn't she said her classic sassy words and shut him down? It was all too confusing.

"You should get back out there." Michelle says to her, trying to be encouraging.

"Huh? Why?" Megan questioned. "I pulled a goodnight and go!"

"I bet he's still out there." She smirked, which was true. "Come on, go."

"Fine." As Megan opens the door once more, Peter was already on his way to knock on the door, but stops in his tracks. "Oh- hey..."

"Uh, look, um, I'm not ready for this trip to be over yet and I kinda wanna do something fun that's not on the itinerary or plan or with Mr. Harrington-"

"Yes." She interrupts him. Megan wasn't sure why she said yes but she immediately regretted it anyway.

"Yes like you wanna go?" Peter questioned. He was extremely shocked that she was agreeing.

"Wait. No." Megan was currently in a mini battle in her head on whether she go or not. Was she actually willing to let him in? It was very hard to do it, but she wanted to. The fear of Peter letting her down again wasn't helping.

"No? Um-"

"I mean yes!" She interrupts, but the battle continues. "I mean no. No, I mean yes."

Peter stood there puzzled. Couldn't she just make up her mind? "I'm confused."

"I..." She pauses. "I'll go."

"Positive?" He asks, making sure her answer was definite.

"Positive."

"Okay. Awesome." Peter smiles. "I'll see you outside in ten minutes?"

"Meet me outside in five minutes." Megan demands. Maybe she was actually excited for this.

"Five is good." He says.

"Okay, bye." She quickly shuts the door, and covers her face with her hands. "Oh my god."

"I heard everything." Michelle says. It would make sense since she was casually on her bed the whole time listening to their conversation.

"Of course you did." Megan rolls her eyes.

"Do you need anything?" Michelle stands up and walks over to her best friend to help. "Mint? Extra scrunchie? My jean jacket?"

"A mint would be nice." She replied. She really didn't want any bad breath right now.

"Well, you gotta go!" Michelle takes out a pack out mints from her purse and hands it to her. "You're short on time!"

"I should've never said five minutes." Megan groaned "Quick, check if I look alright."

"Ponytail looks stable, sneakers are double knotted, breath could be better-"

"MJ!"

"Looks like you're gonna be running late!" Now Michelle was practically pushing Megan out of the door. She was itching to report to Ned about this. "Go, go, go!"

"I am!" Megan leaves the hotel room then Michelle shuts the door on her. The girl had about a minute, and she knew Peter would be extremely excited about this.

Megan met up with Peter in the lobby who was dressed in a completely different outfit than before. It was shame, she liked the button up shirt from earlier.

"Hey." She greets, twiddling with her fingers.

"Hey." He smiles at her. "Uh, so where do you wanna go?"

"Anywhere but here." Megan quickly replies.

"Okay. Let's go."

They made their way out of the hotel, walking as fast as they could with hints of smiles on their faces. It was clear they were both excited about the time they would spend together, but time will tell to see how this will go.
