Chapter 9
Nobody is reading this anyway but I put my heart and soul into the next 21 chapters so... here we go...
Peter went home and was crying. May ran to him and wrapped him in a hug when she saw him.
"What happened, Peter?" May was worried about him.
"I didn't get to ask Luci out but she doesn't want me anymore... I really messed up... it's all my fault," Peter cried and looked at the case.
"I need to go, May. I love you," Peter hugged her and she hugged him back.
"I love you too, Peter," May said before she let him go.

After sulking and feeling stupid, Luci decided to go out as Frost.
She flew past the restaurants, seeing couples together happily. She had wanted that Peter so badly.
Luci saw a flash of blue light. She flew to the source and saw the girl from before.
She was typing on her phone when Frost flew down.
"Gah! I'm walking here- Frost! Hi there!" The girl didn't seem threatened or anything like that.
"What are you up to?" Frost raised an eyebrow.
"I was honestly just coming to find you. I heard that you are mad at him," the girl said and Frost looked at her.
"H-how do you know that?" Frost asked curiously. She hadn't told anyone but her uncle that Peter broke her heart.
"Oh I know quite a bit, Frost. But anyways, I want to help you with your little predicament. We'll make Spidey jealous," she said with a smile. "I'm not evil you know. I just help the story move smoothly and it means I sometimes have to do radical things to keep everything on track."
Frost hummed softly and nodded, "I don't really want to get back at him but a new partner would be nice."
"Then I'm your new partner! My name is Hailey," she held her hand out.
Luci took her hand and flew up to the roof. She took her mask off making her hair and her skin turn back to normal.
"I'm Lucinda," Luci shook the startled girls hand.
"A little warning next time, please," Hailey looked at Luci making her giggle.
"Alright, partner," Luci felt a pang of sadness in her heart. She always called Spiderman... her partner... now she was so hurt and just wish Ned never told her that she was being used.
"Let's go," Hailey smiled.

Peter sat on top of his apartment building in his old, homemade suit. He couldn't put the new suit on... he lost Luci because of it...
'No, Peter, you lost her because of your stupidity,' He told himself.
He remembered the first date he took her on. It was absolutely perfect and magical... Lucinda looked gorgeous as always... he just wanted her...
"I don't want to be Spiderman..." He went inside and got dressed before he took a taxi to Manhattan. He went to the tower with the suit in it's case still.
He rang the doorbell and walked inside with Happy. He just stayed quiet.
"Kid? You okay?" Happy asked, kinda freaked out.
"No, Happy... I'm not okay... I just need to give this back to Mr. Stark and talk to Lucinda," Peter prayed she was at the tower.
"Alright, kid," Happy left it alone.
When Peter walked to Tony's living room, he looked down.
Tony looked at Peter and glared before seeing his tears.
"Peter?" Tony saw the case as Peter put it in the table.
"I don't want it anymore..." Peter said softly and Tony frowned.
"What? Isn't that what you wanted?" Tony raised an eyebrow.
"I did but I wanted to ask Luci to be my girlfriend... now she doesn't want me..." A few tears trickled down his cheeks.
"She said you used her to get your suit back," Kaylanna said softly as she walked closer to Peter and he let out a soft sob.
"I did but it made me realize how much I really do like her... how much I want to truly be with her..."
Tony sighed and hugged Peter, "take the suit. I don't know if Luci is in her room or not but you can check."
Peter nodded and Kaylanna showed him to Lucinda's room.
He knocked on the door but there was no answer. He opened the door a little and looked inside.
The room was spacious and nice but his eyes were immediately drawn to her wall. There were tons of pictures on the wall consisting of Luci and him, Luci with MJ and Ned, the Avengers. There were pictures of Orion too. One photo caught his eye, Lucinda with Captain America and Blizzard... but Lucinda had Frostbite's suit on...
"Luci is... oh my..." Peter felt even more stupid.
He looked around and saw a book... Lucinda's diary...
It was open so he looked through it and cried softly. He found an entry that made his heart ache.
Dear Diary,
I ruined everything. Peter and I aren't friends anymore. He hates me. Yesterday I was so excited. Peter asked me out and I really thought that I would finally get to be with him. Everything was going to be perfect. I was so ready to have a perfect first date but he never came. I sat there for hours. I was there until the restaurant closed and he never showed up. I had to walk home in the rain but I just thought that it was finally going to happen. I really believed that Peter wanted to be with me. He is everything to me and I just wanted to be everything to him or at least be enough for him to want me. He yelled at me though. I just wanted to ask if we could still be friends. I never wanted to lose Peter but I did and it's all my fault. I made Peter, my bestfriend, the guy I really, truly want to be with, hate me. Now I'll never even get to spend my life with him as friends. He blocked my number and he took all of the photos of me off his Instagram. He's erased me from his life and I just can't take it. Why did I have to fall for him? Why does he have to be so perfect? Why can't I be what he wants? I just wanted Peter but I lost everything. I don't know what to do anymore. I can't even look at a picture of him or see his name without crying. I don't know what to do without him. He is my world and I'm lost without him. I'm scared.
"I-I knew she liked me b-but I didn't know I hurt her that much..."
He found out that she knew he was Spiderman all along but reading about all their dates, it killed him inside. One entry particular made him want to throw up from guilt.
Dear Diary,
Today was absolutely amazing! I was with Peter and he took me out to watch the sunset on the beach. He was so sweet and romantic. I felt so at home in his arms. We aren't technically boyfriend and girlfriend yet but it's been a while since we started trying out how a relationship between us would go. I think everything is going perfectly! He seems so happy and I know I'm really happy. We haven't argued once and he makes me feel so special. This is everything I've ever wanted! I'm finally getting my chance to prove to Peter that I'm the one for him! I can't mess this up. I feel like he's gonna ask me to be officially be his girlfriend soon. This past month of being with Peter has been everything I've ever dreamed of and more! I really hope everything stays this perfect. I'm anxious to be his girlfriend but I know Peter will ask at the right time. My dad and my uncle think he's just using me but I trust Peter with everything I have. I know he would never use me.
"I'm such an idiot... she was so happy... I ruined that..." Peter bit his lip and read the latest entry that had tears stains in it.
Dear Diary,
I was so stupid to think Peter actually wanted me back. I thought that I actually meant something to him but I mean nothing. I wish it was real. It felt so real. I tried so hard to be perfect so he would want to stay with me but he never wanted me to begin with. I was so happy and I thought I was making him happy. Being with Peter was the best feeling ever. I just wish it never ended and that it wasn't all a lie. I trusted him with everything I have. I wish Ned never told me. I wish I could stay in Peter's arms longer. He would probably leave me eventually but at least it would still have felt real. I thought I finally had everything I ever wanted. I thought everything was perfect. I really believed everything Peter said to me. No wonder he never asked me to officially be his girlfriend. He never wanted to be my boyfriend. I want more than anything to be Peter's girlfriend. I want to be his everything. I wish I was Liz. She doesn't even realize that she is the luckiest girl in the entire universe. Peter actually wants her. I'm just not good enough. He really meant it when he said I was weak and not as good as Liz. I don't understand how she is so perfect. I want to be perfect. I want to be better than Liz. Maybe I should just graduate now. I just wanted to stay in school so I could be with Peter still but he doesn't want me around. No one will replace him. I don't want to move on. I don't want to be with anyone else. Why does this have to hurt so much? I wish my brother was here. He would know what to do.
Peter felt tears trickle down his cheeks, "Ned told her... I just shouldn't have lied to her... I don't deserve her... I don't deserve anyone."
He sat at her desk and cried.
Tony had to get Peter but he felt so guilty and heartbroken at that point.
"It's all my fault and I just want her... I want her to be with me but it's too late..." Peter looked at Tony who was trying to calm him down.
"I want Lucinda back..."
