Diary Entry #10
The last time I was here everything finally felt okay. I WAS WRONG! AGAIN! I need to stop getting my hopes up like this.
First of all, I never imagined that I would be dating a fucking superhero! Secondly, I didn't think he would be at risk of being locked up! Life's just too crazy man.
I finally have a boyfriend who, ya know, loves me for me and I finally got to have my first actual kiss. I refuse to count that time I kissed Flash in kindergarten as a dare. That shit was nothing compared to this.
Anyways, I really don't know what to do. I've tried to think of anything that was off with this video that was exposed to the whole world. Something just doesn't add up and I have yet to think of it. Maybe I will when I go to Peter's. The more brains, the better, right?
Praying my boyfriend doesn't go to jail,
Meg

Two Days Later
"So only you can do all the fancy shit?"
Megan and Peter were currently in his bedroom, going through any possible evidence for his case. They would've done this yesterday but duty called for Megan at the diner, so they had to have a rain check. For once Megan was the one that had something in the way. Well, sort of. Right now he was showing her the E.D.I.T.H. glasses, which were more than just a pair of silly glasses.
"Yeah, only I have control of E.D.I.T.H. unless I pass on the control to someone else," Peter said. "which is what I did to Beck before I knew he was, you know..."
"A psycho?" Megan questioned.
"I guess that's what he is." He shrugged. "Happy told me that he apparently worked for Mr. Stark years ago but got fired for being "unstable." Makes sense, really."
"Mr. Stark like Tony Stark?" She raised an eyebrow. Megan remembered what Happy said yesterday, and she thought maybe she should bring it up.
"Yeah, why?"
"It's just..." But Megan thought about it a little more, and maybe it was a bad idea. "never mind."
"What?" Peter asked.
"Yesterday Happy said something that you really looked up to him." She said slowly, almost questioning herself after every word.
"I did." He nodded, almost tearing up. "I really did."
"I shouldn't have said anything. I'm sorry-"
"Hey, it's fine. I'm still not exactly over his, um," Peter paused. "death, but he was a great man."
"Well he gave his life to save the world, so I'd say he's pretty fucking great." Megan put on a smile, trying to put light to the situation.
"Question."
"Answer."
"Am I like your bad boy boyfriend now?" Peter asked her.
"Excuse me?" She raised an eyebrow, trying her best not to laugh at his question.
"Well cause I have this ankle bracelet and all, I guess you could say I'm a baddie." Let's be real, Peter was no where near a "baddie." He was probably the biggest sweetheart on earth even when he didn't want to be.
"You're equivalent to that guy from that episode of iCarly where Carly went on a date with a "bad boy" who collected Peewee Babies." Megan deadpanned, hurting Peter's ego a bit.
"Ouch." He cringed a little.
"Am I wrong?" She shrugged.
"No..." Peter sighed.
Despite the roast, Megan wanted to get back to business. Peter's trial was only in a couple days, and there wasn't much to help his case. "Good, now show me how these glasses work. There might be something useful for you in court."
"Like?" He asked, not sure what could be of good use to them in the courtroom.
"I don't know. "Megan shrugged. "Does it record stuff?"
Bingo. "Now when I think about it, I think it does!"
That was it. The evidence Peter needed. Of course Tony would implement camera in the glasses if they were meant for Peter. He did put a camera in his original suit too.
"Okay, okay!" Now things were finally getting somewhere, which Megan was more than happy about. "We're onto something. Try and go back to the day of the attack."
Peter put on the glasses, and Megan had to comment how dorky he looked in them, but that wasn't the point. "Edith, can you show me the footage from the attack in London?"
There was silence for a few minutes, and Megan assumes that Peter was going over the footage. While she was waiting, Peter skipped to all the important stuff, finding everything he needed, including what happened in Mysterio's point of view.
"Meg." Peter took off the glasses, almost like in a life defining, coming of age moment. "This is it."
"What is?" She asked in confusion.
"The proof!" He exclaimed.
"Like decisive evidence?" Megan questioned.
"Huh?"
"Basically what you have is enough to prove that you're innocent." She explained. Megan really knew what she was talking about. Bless that intro to law class she took freshmen year.
"I guess?" He shrugged, not really sure what law terms were. "What are you, like, my lawyer?"
"I could be one day." Megan replied. "Anyway, don't you have to submit this into evidence or something?"
"Wow you really know the law." Peter said, oddly amazed even though everything she said was basic stuff.
"Well?" She questioned.
"I'd have to tell my lawyer about it, yeah." He answered.
"Correction: your shitty lawyer." Megan commented. She was definitely not a fan of this lawyer of his.
"He's alright." Peter lied. He sucked ass. "It's not everyday that you work on a case for a superhero."
"True," She shrugged. "but it's also not everyday that your boyfriend is a superhero who is at risk of going to jail."
"You know, it's still kinda weird that I'm your boyfriend." He said. It really felt like a dream to him. Megan was basically out of his league in every way possible, yet she loved him anyway.
"Why's that?" Megan asked obliviously.
"Well for starters, you're out of my league." Peter sassed a bit.
"Am not!" She protested. "You're out of my league too with your fucking six pack."
"Oh yeah?" He smirked. "We used to be assholes to each other."
"Well you drove me crazy when you worked at Sadie's." Megan said. Ah, yes. The memories of Peter never showing up, being late, or just not doing his job when he was actually there. Who would've thought that it would've lead to a relationship?
"So did you." Peter replied.
"Of course I did." Megan rolled her eyes. "I still do."
"Yeah, you do."

Can you tell I'm winging this? Because I am.
Although right now I'm thinking that the trial will be two chapters from now and it will be split into two parts. You know, for suspense.
Then after that? Probably one more chapter then bye bye Pegan.
Trust me, I love this ship so much. They're constantly on my mind it's insane (or should I say far from sane?)
Praying you enjoyed the chapter! MJ and Ned will make an appearance next.
Also thank you for 1k followers!! This is absolutely beyond anything I ever imagined, so thank you!
