Chapter 56.
Thanks to Happy picking her up from school and driving her home, she was now with her parents as they stood in front of a group of reporters. Cameras were being held at them and Briana knew that her friends from school, including Peter and Cat, must be watching. All of them wondering the same thing as her; what was her father going to ask her mother?
"Miss Virginia 'Pepper' Potts," Tony says, a mischievous smile on his face. "You stood by my side after all these years, through every mishap, bad decision, mass murderer, and raising our beautiful and amazing daughter."
Briana smiled shyly from hearing her father say this and continued to watch. If this was what she thought it was.... then her uncle Rhodey better get the twenty dollars he's gonna lose ready.
Tony continues, "You've filled every hole in my life, as partner, lover, impulse control, sparring partner, and mother of my child, as everything I need. You deserve everything, but I hope you'll settle for me,"
Pepper lets out a choked laugh and she smiles down at him, like it's only the two of them in the room.
"Miss Potts, just marry me already,"
Briana felt her heart burst with happiness. Was it finally going to happen!?
Pepper laughs and nods down at him, "I'm gonna marry the heck out of you, Mr. Stark,"
The lights of the cameras illuminate them as they kiss and Briana smiled big as her parents kissed.
"I got you," Tony tells her.
Pepper smirks back, "I got you first,"
•••
Briana has been smiling ever since her father proposed to her mother. After years of trying to get them together and betting with her Uncle Rhodey, it finally happened. She stood on the balcony of her bedroom as she stared out towards the city with a smile.
She felt her phone buzz and took it out to receive a text from Peter.
Peter: Look behind you.
With a confused look, she turned around to see Peter standing right in the Spider-Man suit that she made him because she believed in him, "Pete? Did you swing all the way here?" Briana asked.
He nodded, "For you, it was worth it,"
She felt her cheeks heat up a bit as she giggled. "What's up?" She asked, smiling as she went over to him.
"Well, I came here for two things. The first one, I wanted to say thanks for the suit," Peter said.
Briana smiled, "Well, I did make it for you. It's yours, Pete. What's the other thing?"
Peter smiled and his cheeks turned red a bit as he gently held her hand, "As for the other thing... I felt bad that I had to leave early because of the Vulture, and since you're an amazing girl, I wanted to make it up to you, we never did get to enjoy homecoming that night,"
Briana felt herself blushed. He swing all the way here, to make up homecoming for her? She giggled as Peter suddenly spun her around. But as the two of them smiled and laughed while dancing together, a song began to play out in the distance like it was fate that was bringing the two of them together.
You know I want you
It's not a secret I try to hide
I know you want me
So don't keep saying our hands are tied
You claim it's not in the cards
Fate is pulling you miles away
And out of reach from me
But you're here in my heart
So who can stop me if I decide
That you're my destiny?
Peter spun Briana around again causing her to laugh and smile. His heart flutters as he saw her happy, because he knew that she deserved to be happy and she deserved to have someone who could make her happy. He only hoped that she felt the same way about him.
What if we rewrite the stars?
Say you were made to be mine
Nothing could keep us apart
You'd be the one I was meant to find
It's up to you, and it's up to me
No one can say what we get to be
So why don't we rewrite the stars?
Maybe the world could be ours
Tonight
He spun her so close to him, it caused their faces to be inches apart. Their faces flushed bright red at this as their brown eyes met.
You think it's easy
You think I don't want to run to you
But there are mountains
And there are doors that we can't walk through
I know you're wondering why
Because we're able to be
Just you and me
Within these walls
But when we go outside
You're going to wake up and see that it was hopeless after all
Briana danced over to Peter and he smiled as he placed his hands on her hips and pulled her close to him. She blushed and wrapped her arms around his neck as they danced.
No one can rewrite the stars
How can you say you'll be mine?
Everything keeps us apart
And I'm not the one you were meant to find
It's not up to you
It's not up to me
When everyone tells us what we can be
Peter spun Briana towards him again, pulling her so his hands rested on his hips and their bodies were pressed together, her hands rested around his neck and they locked eyes, their faces inches away from each other.
How can we rewrite the stars?
Say that the world can be ours
Tonight
All I want is to fly with you
All I want is to fall with you
So just give me all of you
It feels impossible (it's not impossible)
Is it impossible?
Say that it's possible
How do we rewrite the stars?
Say you were made to be mine?
Nothing can keep us apart
'Cause you are the one I was meant to find
It's up to you
And it's up to me
No one can say what we get to be
And why don't we rewrite the stars?
Changing the world to be ours
At the "ours" of the song, Peter spun her around one last time then spun her back to him.
You know I want you
It's not a secret I try to hide
But I can't have you
We're bound to break and my hands are tied
At the last note, Briana spun around in his arms and smiled as they locked eyes again. "That was amazing. Thank you, Peter," she said smiling.
Peter turned red a bit and smiled, "You deserved it. You're a amazing girl, Bri. You're sweet, smart, kind. You don't give up on others, you always believe in them,"
Briana blushed when she heard him say that about her. Was this really what he thought about her?
"Thank you, Pete, for everything," she smiled at him then she leaned in and kissed his cheek causing him to turn beet red. Then he gently grabbed her hand and brought it up as he kissed her hand, causing her to giggle and blush.
"See you around, M'lady," those words. She felt the memory of those words back to when she lost half the people she called family and learnt the truth about her grandparents' death.
"See you around, Spidey," those words would always be special to her, because those words would always remind her of how she feels about him and that very first kiss. It would remind her of the very moment she would never ever forget.
And so, with the same dreamily smile on her face, she watched as her hero, the boy she loved, swing back to his home. And as she watched, she knew that Peter Parker would always hold the key to her heart.
Avengers/Spider-Man belongs to Marvel
Briana belongs to me
