Trying to be better
Y/N's POV:
A few months after the event with the collider in Miles' universe, I see myself doing my usual Spider-Man things. Chilling on the top of Empire State Building having an authentic New York City hot dog
I then get a call from mom
May: Hey sweetie, what are you doing?
Y/N: The usual. Saving people, saving cats stuck on trees and watching over the city. I actually visited them today. Brought them flowers.
May: I'm glad you did it. And I'm also glad you moved on.
Y/N: Well, someone very special I met some time ago told me that we should honor those who aren't with us anymore. I just miss them so much.
May: I know you do, sweetie. But Pete, Gwen and Ben wouldn't want you to be suffering over them. Instead, they'd want you to be doing what you do best. Being a hero. How's the whole fangs and claws situation, by the way?
Y/N: Oh, I'm controlling them now.
May: Good to know.
I then hear sirens and my police scanner beeps
Y/N: Sorry mom. Gotta go to work.
May: Be careful.
I hang up the call and jump off the building before activating my web wings and gliding with them
What do you got for me, New York?
Scanner: Attention. Car chase near Rockfeller Center. Suspects are armed and dangerous.
I swing as fast as I can to Rockfeller Center and see some thugs in a black SUV
After that, I thread the needle through a truck and they start shooting at me
I then land on the roof of the car and face a goon with a machine gun
Y/N: Hi, are you Jalen? Is this my Uber? Nevermind. Bye!
I tangle him with my web and he flies out of the car.
I then knock on the windshield and wave at the driver before kicking him out of the car
After all of that, the car loses control and flips, but I manage to catch it. Like I always do
After that, the cops arrive
Y/N: I'll let you guys take it from here.
Cop: I appreciate the help, Spider-Man.
After that, I swing around the city for a few hours doing Spider-Man stuff
When the night comes, I go back to my house in Queens
Mom said we're moving in some time from now, so some things are a mess there
Y/N: I'm home! Something smells amazing here.
I hear my mom calling my name from the kitchen
Y/N: I'm here...oh.
I see an old man standing next to mom
May: Y/N, this is John, the man I talked to you about. He's having dinner with us. John, this is Y/N, my son.
Y/N: Uh...nice to meet you.
Mom then puts dinner on the dining room table and there is an awkward silcence between us
John: So, as I was telling you before Y/N arrived, Jonah won two pulitzer prizes.
May: That's amazing.
I then realize who John is talking about.
Y/N: Excuse me, but is "Jonah" J. JONAH Jameson?
John: Yes.
Y/N: And why are we talking about him?
May: Y/N...John is JJJ's father.
I was drinking a glass of water and immediately spit after hearing this
Y/N: JJJ's father?!
John: Yes. I am John Jonah Jameson Sr. You didn't know that?
I keep my head down and just eat dinner without saying a word
The rest of the dinner was awkward. Pretty much just John and mom talked while I just said "yes" or "no"
I'll need to have a serious talk with my mom
Y/N: First of all. Why?
May: Why what?
Y/N: Why date the father of the only guy that hates my guts? I don't want to be Jameson's stepbrother.
May: You're being selfish, Y/N. Can't you be happy that I'm dating again?
I just sigh deeply
Y/N: I just...still miss him, you know?
May: I know, sweetie. Just keep in mind that no one can replace Ben. John is...a good man.
Y/N: He better treat you right.
May: He will.
I go up to my room and lay down on my bed with my headphones and looking at some old pictures of my universe's Gwen and pictures of Spider-Woman Gwen, the one I met when I was sucked into Miles' universe
Frank Sinatra's It Had To Be You is playing in my headphones
Why do I do just as you say
Why must I just give you your way
Why do I sigh, why don't I try to forget
It must have been that something lovers call fate
Kept me saying I have to wait
I saw them all, just couldn't fall, 'til we metIt had to be you
It had to be you
I wandered around, and I finally found
The somebody who
Could make me be true
And could make me be blue
And even be glad
Just to be sad - thinking of you

After that, I get a call from an unknown number
Y/N: Hello?
?????: Hi stranger...long time no see. Have you been avoiding my calls in the last month?
Oh boy, I know this voice
?????: Can you come out to play? Or did I catch you past your bed time?
Y/N: It depends. Are you stealing stuff?
?????: Nope...I'm just back in town to see some friends.
Y/N: When and where, Felicia?
Felicia: MoMA. 30 minutes.
Why does Felicia want to see me?
I suit up and sneak out of the house after that
