In her business (Old)
Okay, so turns out making mostly original chapters is harder than it looks... and sounds. So, I'm gonna be mostly copying from Homecoming... again.
So you were walking to school with Peter and Ned, the three of you trying this new filter that's supposed to tell you what Sonic character you'd be. Each on your own phones of course.
"Man, why do I keep getting Tails?" Peter says before sighing. "What'd you guys get?"
"I got Eggman. Honestly, I don't know how to feel about." Ned says.
"Mine's still loading. Hopefully, I'm a good-What the hell?" You say while looking at your phone. "Wha-Who even is this?" You showed them your phone.
"Uh... hold on." Ned says before looking it up on his phone. "Uh, says here his name is... Comedy Chimp from Sonic Boom."
"What, I'm some random monkey that no one knows crap about?"
"Yeah, maybe not trust TikTok filters." Peter says before you reached school.
As you were putting your stuff away in your locker, you heard a slam a few lockers down and looked around your door. Peter was getting confronted by Flash Thompson. You couldn't hear what they were talking about, but you had a feeling you knew what when Flash shoved him against the locker and glared at him.
Now you were no Spider-woman... Spider-person... Spider-man? But Peter was your friend and despite the jocky-like difference between you and Flash, you weren't a fan of watching your friend get bullied. You closed your locker and was about to go confront them, until another kid with braids pulled the jock away from him.
"Back off, Thompson." He threatened in a low voice. "Pick on someone your own size."
"Excuse me? And who do you think you are exactly?" The jock says, trying to be intimidating.
"You really wanna know?"
"No, but it'll help to know who I'm gonna beat to a pulp."
Flash then attempted to throw a punch but the kid ducked then swept his feet, causing him to fall on his back. He groaned a bit before sitting up, looking at the kid.
"I'm gonna ask again. Do you really wanna know?" He asked again.
The jock just glared at him before standing up and walking away, not before giving Peter the 'I'm watching you' gesture. Well, seeing the fight was over you went over and started to ask your friend if he was alright.
"You should be more careful." The kid says as he picks up Peter's glasses and gives him them. "Especially around him."
"Thanks. Uh... sorry, I don't know you." Peter says.
"I'm Miles Morales." He says with an accent in his voice before giving a two-finger salute and walking off. "Tómalo con calma."
As he disappeared in the crowd, the two of you looked at each other before shrugging.
(Later)
"I don't know too much about that guy. I mean, I heard that he transferred here from Brooklyn, his dad used to be a police officer, but that's about it." Ned explains.
"Huh, neat." You say. "Still, that was pretty clean what he did back there with Flash."
"He had it coming." Peter speaks up.
Then the bell rang and everyone stopped talking and those who weren't in their seats went back to them as the teacher started taking attendance. In the middle of it, you spotted Gwen at the door who motioned for you not to say anything. You just nodded as she did her best to sneak into the class without being noticed.
"Gwendolyne Stacy." The teacher then called out, causing her to stop.
Then everyone turned and stared at her as she squinted her eyes. You sighed with a hand on your face.
"Uh... present." She says while raising her hand.
"Good... go sit down." The teacher tells him.
Gwen's shoulders dropped as she sighed in frustration. She just shook her head and continued to her seat next to you while the teacher continued to take attendance.
"Had some early morning work?" You ask in a low voice.
"Wouldn't you like to know." She says. "Hey..." She quietly asked "Do you have any extra supplies on you?" You gave her a stare. "I lost my backpack."
(Later)
It was gym time which involved your class needing one student to do sit-ups while another held their feet down.
Yo, I don't know what schools ever did this, but no one ever had to hold my feet down whenever I did sit-ups back in gym class.
You just so happened to be paired with Gwen to help her with the exercise... well, actually there was no assigned partners, so you got to choose.
"Hey you know, I could help out if you like... you know, need anything." You say as quietly as possible.
"Like what?" She asked as quietly as well.
"Well, you know. I could be the one who sits at the computer and like has a headset while they help the hero out. Ya know like, if you're in a burning building or something I could bring up a map and tell you where to go."
"That's nice of you, (Y/N). But I think I'm good."
"Ya sure? I've been taking up a programing class with Pete, I could help."
"How long have you been doing that for?"
"Well, only recently so, I'm not like up there with Pete, but I can still help."
"Again, thanks, but I'm good really."
"Looking great there, Morales." The gym teacher says.
You two turned and looked at the new kid who along with his class were doing pushups, him seemingly holding up more than the others. His body looking like he didn't even need to do any exercise.
"Dang, that new kid's something." Gwen says with a slight blush face.
"You should've seen what he did to Flash earlier." You say.
"What?" She asked while looking at you.
"Yeah. Showed him up and put him on the floor when he was picking on Pete earlier. You should've seen have quick he did it, too."
"Ugh, lucky." She groaned.
(End of school day)
"So you really don't need my help?" You asked while leaving school.
"Look, I got this okay. It's really not a big deal for me." Gwen tells you. "If I need help, you'll be the first one I'll come to, okay?"
"Alright. You're the hero here."
"Thank you. If I cancel anymore meetups last minute or... at anytime, you know the drill."
"Yeah, well, you know what they say. With great power comes great responsibility."
"Where'd you hear that?"
"Read some Spider-woman comics. They use that phrase a lot."
(Next day at school: Robotics class or whatever class it's called)
Everything was uneventful for the first few classes, but once it came to robotics, you were glad to have something you could enjoy. Peter had finished helping you with some tinkering on your work and you decided to head over to see what Gwen was doing.
"Hey-" You started to say.
"Okay, (Y/N), as much as I love attention, I'd like at least some privacy." She told you.
"Sorry. My bad." You said while stepping back.
"Nah, nah, you're good to stay. Just saying."
"Woah. What is that?" You say while going back and seeing that she had some kind of tech with a purple glowy thingy in it.
"Dunno. Some guy tried to blast with it." She says while jamming a screwdriver into it.
"Woah, seriously?"
"Yeah, power source for something."
"Inductive charging..." You say while getting a little close to it. "Lot of microprocessors."
"Might not wanna get to close. Someone tryna combine alien tech with ours."
"Ya know, I wanna thank you for not shutting me out or anything. I'm happy to be here while you do all this cool heroine stuff."
"Not problem man. What're friends for?" She says with a smile.
Hearing that sentence made you look a little nervous and tug on your collar. I think we all know what's going through your head when she said that.
"A-Actually, I wanted to ask-"
"Step back."
You quickly did as she suddenly hit it with a hammer and it caused a small burst that made you both step back and the purple thing fall out. You looked around, seeing a few people looking at you guys, before looking back at their own thing.
"Keep your fingers clear of the blades." The teacher says, not even looking up from his book.
Gwen then sighed. "You know, I might actually need your help."
"I mean, if you lose another backpack, I could always bring extra supplies." You tell her.
"Thank you, again, but I mean the whole... hero thing."
"Oh, gotcha."
(After class)
After class was over, you and Gwen were walking down the empty hallway to the lab.
"What was that thing you wanted to ask me?" She asked.
"Huh?"
"You said you wanted to ask me something earlier."
"Oh, yeah. I was..." You paused for a moment before thinking. "Wondering how your dad might react if he finds out."
"I don't want to find out how he'll react. Afraid of what he'll think."
"Understandable."
Then her eyes widened before jumped behind a corner. You got confused before she grabbed your arm and pulled you around the corner as well. She peeked around, seeing two guys before she pulled away.
"That's one of the guys that tried to kill me." She whisper-yelled.
"Holy-" You put a hand over your mouth. "Seriously?"
"I gotta follow them. Maybe I'll find the guy that nearly drowned me." She then saw the men turn and continue walking.
"Wait, hold on-" You started to say.
"No, stay here. I gotta do this part myself."
She then ran off in their direction, leaving you behind. You sighed before shaking your head before staying where you were... Wait, did she mean to stay there in that spot or just not follow her?
(Later Gwen's bedroom) Keep your pants up people
You sat on your friend's bed while she hung from the ceiling, dropping a device into your hands. You got confused before some holographic map of the city.
"Woah, sick." He then sees the red dot. "So, is that where the bad guys are?"
"Yep. Little buddy is doing his magic." She says before taking a sip of cappuccino.
"How are you doing that while upside down?"
"Practice makes perfect."
You just nodded. You still wondered things like how the blood wasn't rushing to her head or anything, but you just shook your head. It shouldn't be too long, before she found where they were going, right?

"It has not been that long." You tell her.
"Yes, it has." She says while eating some Doritos.
"Wait, where'd you get those?"
"Uh, I had them?"
"... Can I have some?" You asked.
"Yeah, sure." She then used her web to grab the smaller bag and toss it to you.
"Seriously?"
"Hero gets the bigger bag."
You just sighed while opening the bag, still upset. Then your phone rang. You checked it and it was Peter. Taking a look at Gwen, she gave you a nod and you answered.
"Hey, what's up Pete?" You say while eating.
"Trust me, it gets easier to memorize the more you do it." You hear him say.
"Pete, did you need anything?" You asked, puzzled.
"I know that. It's not hard." You hear a voice that sounded like a certain redhead you remember.
Then you understood and smirked a bit before looking at Gwen and mouthing 'Butt Dial' and she snorted a bit before you held a finger to your lips. You decided to sit there and listen to their conversation while still keeping an eye on the map.
Nothing real eventful happened, it just seemed like they were studying together, with some minor flirting. So far, the Parker seemed to be playing it smooth. You already finished the small bag of Doritos, much to your dismay, but to your relief, Gwen decided to let you have some from hers.
"Thank you for helping me, Peter." MJ says.
"Hey, anytime. If you ever need a study partner again, you can call." Peter says.
"Well, if you wanna just hang out, I'm only a phone call away."
Okay, seemed like they were done with their study session. Eh, maybe it was time he noticed that his phone was-
"Ah, ah, where're you going?" You two hear MJ suddenly say.
"Uh, going home?" Peter says.
"Actually, I was wondering if you'd like to stay for a little longer. ~"
"Um... i-if you want me to stay, but-WOAH!" Peter suddenly said before there was a squeak.
"I've got the house to myself for the night, so I was thinking, we could do something else tonight. ~"
You and Gwen looked at each other, wide eyed when hearing that.
"W-Well... I-I don't mind." He sounded more nervous than anything while Gwen was mouthing and motioning to 'Hang up'.
"Face it, Tiger. You just hit the jackpot-"
You quickly hung up and tossed your phone over your shoulder. You two sat stone-faced for a moment.
"Let's not talk about it." You said.
"Agreed." She said.
