I was now back inside the school writing in my notebook jotting notes down after the class I took, I hadn't notice miles running down the hall and towards me.

he had bumped into me which made yelp in surprise not knowing who it was, I turned around and saw it was miles.

"Oh! you..okay?" I asked while looking at him weirdly, he was sweating an awful lot. I furrowed my eyebrows, "Miles? hey, your sweating a lot." I pointed out.

"What?" He replies as he wipes the sweat from his head, "Why are you sweating so much?" I asked.

Miles looked off to the side before turning back to me, "it's a puberty thing." he says.

Then his eyes widens slightly and I stood there with furrowed eyebrows, "I don't know why I said that. I'm not going through puberty." he quickly said.

I stood there and looked at him with a raised eyebrow, "I did, but I'm done. I'm a man." Miles said while mimicking a deep voice.

"So, remember when I said I was going to see you the day before yesterday? I'm sorry I couldn't come. I had went somewhere with my uncle Aaron." Miles continued to say.

"Uh..miles, really, it's fine." I said while scratching the back of my neck, "but it's not! I felt like I lied. if I would've knew we were going somewhere I would've told you [name] and I-"

"Miles, miles it's okay! I'm not keeping tabs on you. please don't feel like you have to tell me everything." I said with a chuckle.

Miles stared at me for a few seconds before pulling me into a hug, this time I wasn't surprised and hugged him back.

Do the shoulder touch now before they walk away. wait am I doing this in slow motion or is it just me? Miles thought to himself.

I felt him place his hand on my shoulder as he pulled away from the hug, "...hey." I heard him say.

I stared at his hand on my shoulder and then looked into his eyes, "Hi?" I replied.

It was quiet between us for awhile and I sighed, "Miles you're acting weird. I should get going." I said.

"Oh! well, uhm, bye." Miles says and I turned around to walk away but felt his hand grab onto my shirt and yank me backwards.

"Miles! h-hey, what are you doing?" I asked with a small gasp, "s-sorry. I'm trying to let go." Miles said.

"Seriously..." I mumbled as miles was still touching my shoulder, "it wasn't me I swear!" Miles protested.

He tried pulling away but only pulled tighter and the pin on my shirt made me wince, "ow! ow! okay, maybe not let go!" I say.

Then his hand was now on the collar of my shirt and he yanked me forward, we were inches away from each other and now our noses were brushing.

"Miles, let go." I said and tried moving out of his grasp, "I'm workin' on it." Miles said and I tried getting away again only to fail.

"I think it's just puberty." Miles whispered to me, "shush! you don't even know what puberty is do you?!" I whisper shouted back.

Miles hand was still sticking to the collar of my shirt somehow, "Okay I have a plan." he told me.

"No, heck no!" I said and shook my head while still trying to get out of his grasp, "I'm gonna pull really hard." Miles said.

"That's a stupid plan!" I said while holding his wrist, "one..." he started counting down.

"Don't do this miles, please."

"2..."

"Miles I'll punch you so hard you won't see daylight again."

"I wouldn't mind."

"What?"

"ONE!"

"MILES NO—!"

———

I sat in my seat with a grumble while my arms were crossed, Gwen got caught in the crossfire too and they had to shave her hair.

Miles looked over at me and quickly looked away when he noticed my dazed stare, I had to put on a new shirt.

"Still friends?" he asks and I turned to him with a glare, "Sometimes I wonder why I tolerate you." I mumbled but he heard me.

I stood up and grabbed my backpack, miles followed after me and glanced down at the patch of my shirt that was still on his hand, as well as Gwen's hair.

He ducked his head as he walked behind me, grabbing onto my backpack. I walked while my shoulders were slumped.

I was taller than miles by two inches and so it was easy for him to hide behind me, everyone was staring at us.

I then bumped into someone and a lumped formed in my throat when I saw it was a security guard, "hey! I know you snuck out last night, morales." The security guard says.

Miles appeared from around me and chuckled, "Who's morales?" Miles says and groaned loudly.

I felt him grab my wrist and the both of us started running, "hey! miles, let go! I'm not getting dragged into your mess!" I shouted but it was on deaf ears.

As we started running I accidentally bumped into someone and apologized, "sorry!" I say quickly and that's when miles dragged me inside a room.

I landed on the desk when he placed me there and I stared at him confused, "Dude what are you doing?" I whisper shouted.

As soon as he tried getting away from the door his hand was stuck? I was surprised by this and my eyes widened slightly.

his shoes slipped off and papers fell out of his backpack, "What are you doing in my office, morales?!" the security guard shouted.

Then unexpectedly miles fell into the desk and collided with me and I fell on top of him, his shirt was off but he still had his tie on.

"Morales open up!" the security guard yelled.

Miles hand got stuck in my hair and I yelped when he tugged on my hair by accident, "M-Miles let go, please!" I said and winced.

"I'm sorry [name]!" Miles said and then he collided with me again which he pinned me against the wall.

"Why is this happening?" Miles whispered to himself and I got dragged onto the ceiling with him, "miles!" I shouted surprised.

"I'm sorry, forgive me!" Miles said but it was muffled into his shirt which fell off, I then landed in the chair with him and the both of us was now on the brick wall of the school.

"MILES!" I shouted and his hand was still in my hair and I tried pulling away.

Then a hoard of birds came towards us making me scream in surprise, miles gripped my waist and squeezed it tightly.

"Miles let go, right now!"

"I can't!"

We hit the window a few times and some students looked but saw nothing thankfully.

We both fell into his dorm room where him and his roommate stayed at, he fell on top of me.

he straddled my waist and his hand was still stuck in my hair but I eventually got him off me, "What is happening.." I said with furrowed eyebrows.

"There can't be two spider-man's can there?" Miles says as he looked down at me, I felt my eye twitch.

"..." I stayed quiet before punching him directly in the face but not too hard.

———

Miles typed away at his phone trying to get in contact with his uncle, he was mumbling to himself and I just walked next to him.

"Wait, miles, hold on!" I tried stopping him from getting hit by the taxi but...he landed somehow? everyone started clapping.

I stood there wide eyed and felt as though I was crazy. I mean, yeah he was doing the tricks of spider-man which he rarely knew. I'm honestly shocked...

                LATER
THAT NIGHT...

Both me and miles were now on a train. I had my head laying in his lap as I slept, his leg was shaking a bit but eventually he calmed down once he noticed I was asleep. guess that was his comfort?

I snored softly and miles ran his fingers through my hair and placed a kiss on my forehead.

...some friend he is. I mean, right? we're just friends that's it. I remember agreeing to that, he probably doesn't.

Then the train came to a stop, I awoke from my slumber and stretched, accidentally kicking the guy next to me in the face.

Weird..my reflexes were pretty fast. okay, I'm not gonna even try that. I'm not no spider-man/woman, could never be.

Being a superhero is hard and has a lot of responsibilities. I don't know how miles is going to handle this.

I stepped out and stood next to him while letting out another yawn, I saw him staring down at the ground.

"Hey, you good?" I asked as I turned to look at him, he moved his gaze away from the floor and glanced towards me, "Ima be honest, I'm panicking right now." he replied and sent me a small smile.

"Don't worry. you're probably just being crazy and got me into some deranged stuff with you." I said and smiled.

Miles let out a chuckle, "right like I would actually do that. wait, would I?" he says.

I rolled my eyes and walked forward, "you coming?" I asked him while raising my eyebrow.

"Yep, yeah hold up." he says.
