#god tags are so scarce jeez

[abstract-crossverse]

I am holding out my hands so lovingly for some seek x reader content. Literally anything for him I just ask you very very politely for seek content pretty please

Absolutely, one goop man comin up

Letting people know in advance that these first few requests that arent that specific will be headcanons similar to how I did with Ambush so I can get a grip on the characters Long as shit again, so you know the drill, the rest is under the cut

Cw// around the Dating headcanons, one of them is gonna be a tad bit suggestive, nothing in need of worry but if you feel queezy with suggestiveness then I would advise you to proceed with caution during that part. It's only that one paragraph though so everything else if fine and dandy 👌

===========================

Seek x Reader [headcanons, fluff]

-> Seek is the (mostly) self-proclaimed leader of the entities. However, he doesn't call the shots in the hotel itself- he takes on responsibilities like making sure the chaos entities (Rush, Screech, and sometimes Ambush if he's feeling silly) from blowing something up... And of course, he helps plan around strategies to get the players when they decide to actually prepare something out instead of winging it and hoping for the best- that'll be important later

-> Anyway, you weren't the only one traversing the hotel this time, you had friends with you, yall were 4 in total and managed to live until now. though you got pretty roughed up, Screech bit your leg pretty hard when you failed to find him in time and no bandages were found, so one of your friends was helping you walk through the long hallway you found yourselves in, all confused and on edge about the eyes you saw in the earlier rooms

-> You all heard rumbling and bubbling coming from behind you, looking back you saw Seek emerging from the goop that seeped through the floorboards at the start of the corridor. It wasn't long until he was running at you, the other 2 ran ahead as you and your friend stayed behind a bit to help you move through the fallen furniture and doors Guiding Light tried to point you in the direction of.

-> Though it didn't last long, your legs got stuck under a fallen bookshelf in the third room you had to run through. your friend tried freeing you but to no avail, and Seek was closing space quickly, they yelled an apology and let go of you, running off so they wouldn't be dead meat.. you felt betrayed but knew there was no saving you, so you simply braced yourself for imminent death

-> But it never came. In fact, you felt the weight of the bookshelf lift from you, peeking out of your arms you saw Seek standing above you, the black coat he wore covered a white button-up that somehow wasn't stained by the inky substance dripping off his face, black pants and boots, a black tie and belt around his waist and neck, and white cuffs accented his outfit. He stared down at you as you tried registering what was happening

-> Before you knew it, he had picked up bridal style and began bringing you along the corridors he had to run through, lifting the fallen furniture and putting out the fires with arms that formed out of the same inky substance dripping from the walls. The eyes seemed to look among themselves in confusion as they witnessed Seek bring you along the halls in his arms, were they not his? Or did they have a mind of their own?

-> By the time you got to the last stretch the door was still closed as the arms put out the fire from the fallen chandeliers and cleaned the broken glass from the ground. Though there were three fewer arms than usual, you didn't know that, you didn't know those three arms were supposed to be there in the first place.

-> You coughed from the smoke still floating around the hall that slowly cleared through the broken windows. It wasn't long until Seek put you down sitting against a wall next to a window, where another arm came through the broken window to hold you there.

"Stay here." He spoke, voice echoing around the room as he walked off through the end door, bringing the red aura he emitted to the next room. You were confused and terrified, what was he going to do to you? Was he keeping you alive for shit and giggles? Giving you false hope that you'd survive only to kill you at the end? Thoughts ran through your head as you began to panic more and more, you nearly jumped as the hand holding you rubbed your arm with its thumb, attempting to soothe you as it seemed to sense your fear, which only confused you more

Which reminds you- how could Seek speak? He had no mouth to speak from? And why were the arms fixing the place up? You watched as the multiple arms put up new chandeliers on the ceiling in place of the old ones as if they were fixing a dollhouse, the carpet didn't even look like there was a fire on it just a second ago either... You shrunk slightly at the sight of the eyes on the walls staring directly at you, sometimes looking among themselves as if talking with each other. You wondered if they were Seek's, if he was making sure you wouldn't escape

Later you realized Seek was back as the red aura entered your peripheral vision, the eyes looked at him too. He carried a handful of bandaids and a bottle of disinfectant spray and a bit of cotton, he sat in front of you as the arm holding you slipped back through the window

"... May I?" He looked from your injured leg to you, did he want to heal you? You could only nod slowly, afraid of what could happen if you said no, and so he lifted your pant leg and sprayed some disinfectant into a piece of cotton, gently wiping at the bite marks Screech left on your leg, you hissed in pain at the burning sensation of the solution.

Seek glanced occasionally from your leg to you every time you hissed or flinched, but slowly patched up your leg. It wasn't long before you spoke;

"... Why... Why are you helping me?.." he paused, causing you to tense when he looked up at you "... They left you for dead. I felt pity, so I'll give you a chance to survive some longer." He stated, finishing with your leg and pulling your pant leg down again, he simply sat in front of you now

"I can tell you have more questions... I'll answer some of them, but once I am done, I won't answer anymore. Understood?" He asked, having another arm pop up through the window next to you and take the dirty cotton and spray away, along with the paper from the bandaids and bandaid he didn't need to use, it went way with the materials in its large hand. You could only nod, it wasn't every day you could get any answers to what this place was...

-> The more you two seemed to talk, the more you both drifted away from your initial topic. Not like Seek didn't notice, of course, he did, but he found himself enjoying your conversation, it had been too long since he properly talked with a human.. he can't help but wonder how long it's been since his death and addition to the Hotel's "staff"

-> The eyes were still on the walls, though there were a lot fewer than before the room was clean. Though after some time of talking, he knew he had to go away before Jack realized he was "slacking on the job" and kill you himself.. he's retired, not harmless though. So Seek got up after a while of talking

"I must go." He said, offering a hand to help you up, as your leg wasn't too well still, you took his hand as he pulled you up. "already?" You asked with a small pout "well, it was nice chatting with you, you're really chill!" You smiled at him as he chuckled, flustered and averting his eye to the side

"oh- uh.. before you go- do you know what happened to my friends?" You were still worried about those people? What a heart you have. ".. they were caught by my arms, my apologies, but they should be waking up back down in the lobby." He stated, lowering his head momentarily as your heart sank a bit.. I guess you're by yourself now "oh.."

A small silence broke between you too as you furrowed your brows in worry, you glanced at the door to the next room. "It's- it's fine... I'll be okay, I can do this alone... Thank you- for the help again, sir.." "Seek. It's what most of you call me, I find it fitting." He shrugged, holding his hands behind his back, you nodded "Seek, alright, I'll keep that in mind. I'll... See you some time I guess..." He nodded, and you began lightly limping your way to the door to the next room, making sure to check the number before you went through

As you opened the door, the lights in the hall flickered as wet, sploosh-y sounds echoed through the room. You looked back, only to find an empty, intact hall, Seek was gone, and so were the eyes, and the windows somehow were fixed. It confused you, but not much of a surprise, this hotel is the weirdest you've ever been to.. how'd you even get here again?

-> After that day, Seek found himself thinking about you often.. he'd never spared someone before, so you can imagine that moment stood out quite a bit. he wonders if you made it to the end or if you were caught by Figure.. or maybe someone else, new people seem to struggle in the greenhouse and you seemed new to the hotel.. to an extent at least, you weren't surprised or confused by when he said he caught your companions and that they should've been back in the Hotel's lobby

-> Though it wasn't long until you met again, this time you were alone, you stood at the end of the hall, looking as he emerged from the ground. He saw you wave at him with a small, worried smile, he figured you didn't know if you both were on good terms or not, if he was going to chase you or if you'd chat again... to your luck, he felt especially tired today

-> So you both sat down in the hall again, talking away to your heart's content, laughing with jokes and stories about the Hotel and it's residents. You realized how none of the other entities were just monsters hunting for whatever they could get a bite out of, that they were human once, but remember nothing of their past lives and got desensitized to killing as they slowly began to see this place as a game, anyone who was killed would reappear within a certain amount of time. So what did it griefing matter? They can't truly die here anyways.

-> Some of the stories he told you were morbid sure, but you enjoyed your time with him. Even if it's usually cut short by the Eyes on the walls making some noise that caught his attention, seeming to listen for something then saying he needed to go somewhere. You figured he could sense other people coming through the rooms and to your location, so you obliged, albeit sad you had to cut your times short, quickly making your way through the now not-so-dangerous obstacle course from his chase, the main differences being that there was no fire in the rooms you speed through, and the final hall had no arms, though you could see them waiting outside the windows if you looked out.

-> And so the cycle began, every time you met with Seek you mainly chatted before he had to go attend to other "Players", as he called them, you walk off and continue through the hotel until meeting him later on before the garden. You found yourself looking forward to encountering him, you've memorized what number of rooms his crescendo would usually show up in, and tease him about being late if his Hall came nearing door 40 or 80.

-> He finds you amusing, you've grown on him but he won't admit it, often making jokes that he could kill you right that second if he wanted to, he doesn't understand how you enjoy being in his presence, how you're not scared of him. You challenge him, saying he wouldn't cuz he doesn't have the balls to do so, which prompts him into chasing you around playfully until he inevitably catches you and begins pretending to attack you with tickles. By the end of it, you're both on the ground, calming down from fits of laughter, occasional giggles leaving you both.

-> He's been feeling warmer and warmer around you lately, a fuzzy feeling in his chest he can't quite explain whenever he looks at you, a mere smile from you leaving him breathless- which confuses him even more given he doesn't have lungs anymore, or any organs for that matter. So the fact you manage to make his metaphorical heart skip a beat shocks him beyond belief

-> Seek often goes to his brother to gush and try to make sense of what he's feeling, Hide sometimes never hears the end of it, though they managed to pin down it was love- Hide still made fun of his brother for behaving in such an unorthodox fashion compared to his usual behavior of "I hate the Players, they are annoying.", Seek would roll his eye.

-> He clutches a hand on his chest as you wander back into his mind, your face, your hair, the way you laugh... he can barely describe how perfect it all is, how perfect you are... You're just... Too much for him to even begin describing, how whatever influence is out there led him to meet such a beautiful soul as you is beyond him, but is he complaining? Not at all.

-> You've been getting closer and closer to each other each day, every time he even gets the slightest contact with you anymore makes him struggle to get a word out, which doesn't go unnoticed by you, of course. Youve got his usual behavior down well enough so it's obvious something's up with him

-> He shrugs it off when you ask about it, of course he does, but his pride won't let him admit it. Not yet. And sure as hell not like this.

-> He comes from the late 60s, and was raised to be a gentleman, and even if he knows of a lot of the new world and its culture (aka 2000s-2020s stuff) his old habits still die hard since he's never really changed since his living times. So if he confesses his love to you, he'll do it right... He knows what he feels for you is love, he just barely knows how to handle it, it's overwhelming- he didn't think it would hit him this hard- give him a moment

-> One night, he planned on confessing to you, so one night Jack finally made it not storm for once, he would invite you out to the garden. It was risky- especially since ever since Jack implemented the Greenhouse, he's been hanging around there doing god knows what- but it was tonight, this was just a perfect, beautiful night, when would he get a chance like this again?

-> So after a good hour practicing how'd he'd invite you out to the garden and confess his feelings over a mirror- also with Hide's help. He finally mustered up the courage to seek you out and put his plan in motion;

Seek traversed the Hotel under the floorboards and within the walls in search of you, he requested aid from Hide for extra eyes on areas he couldn't see. But you were nowhere to be seen, which made him anxious, were you not doing another 'run' through the Hotel today? Was lady luck really cursing him today?

But to his relief, one of Hide's eyes pooped up within the wall he was inside, peeking through the crack to see if you were anywhere but only found other Players confused by Dupe's traps as they didn't remember which room they were in. Hide whispered to him you were already in the Garden, to his convenience and surprise

Seek thanked his brother as the eye slipped away into nonexistence, before he peeked again through the boards, watching as one of the Players decided to wing it and walked into one of Dupe's rooms, getting bit in the process as the other two freaked out and laughed at the other who fell to the floor on his ass, completely dumbfounded. Seek chuckled in amusement, their misery is funny to him. Anyways, he has to get to you quick before you choose to come back inside

He slipped through under the door and gates to the Garden, only slightly forming to be able to peek and look around for you. Almost immediately found you lying on the grass, looking up at the oddly star-filled sky with a slight smile on your face, his eyes squinted in a smile a bit, gazing at you as he reformed into his usual form, fixing his tie before making his way towards you

He got closer, you turned your head in his direction with a slightly confused expression as you heard the crushing of grass, you smiled, his heart skipped a beat.

"hey." Such a short greeting, but your tone said more than that, a warm, comforting tone, if only you could see the stupid little grin he has on his face. You looked just so beautiful under the lighting in the garden. ".. hello... Are you alright?" He asked, sitting beside you as you looked back up

"yeah... Just. Taking the scene in." He looked up at the sky, lying beside you to admire the scenery better ".. it is beautiful isn't it?" You nodded "almost as beautiful as your eyes."

You took a moment to process before laughing a bit "oh that was cheesy!" He turned his head to glare playfully as you laughed, he could see a pink tint forming in your cheeks "what? You dont like that one? Alright, do a better one then!" He poked your arm lightly

"oh fine, you're on!" You said between chuckles, looking back up to think of a pickup line. You hummed "... Yknow, I adore the stars, they mean so much even if being so far away from where we are.. I guess you're a star then." You thought that was smooth enough, not perfect but good enough, Seek's eye widened slightly, it was tough to know when he was blushing due to what he was made out of, but his behavior and stammering gave away that at least your flirt landed

You giggled at his behavior "alright, your turn." He cleared his throat, thinking for a moment before he got an idea

"If I were to kiss you then go to Hell, I would. So then I can brag with the devils I saw heaven without ever entering it." He turned his gaze to you as your face got redder, you stammered, sitting up "that's- that's Shakespeare, isn't it?-" you glared at him a bit, a smile growing on your face "mmmaybe." He chuckled as you grumbled at him, lightly punching his arm

".. it is true though... About the kiss thing.. and the beautiful one too.." he sat up, if he had a heart it would be racing right now, he could still feel the adrenaline coursing through his body as if he did though. You stared at him in slight shock, he continued

"... Nothing can compare to how I feel around you. You make me feel warm, every time you spare a glance at me-.. my heart would skip beats if I had one- though I still feel it as if I did... I didn't know it would even be possible.." he paused, a chuckle escaping him "your smile makes me melt, your gaze makes me feel as if I swallowed butterflies.. Your laugh is music to me, your little quirks and habits make me fall further for you- you are simply perfect in more ways I could imagine to describe..."

As much as he may seem calm now, believe me, he's freaking out internally, pushing out words as much as he could before he couldn't make himself speak anymore. You averted your eyes in embarrassment, covering half your face with a hand. He gently took your chin in his hand, pulling your attention back to him as he moved your head to look back at you, it only made your blush worse

He took a deep breath silently "I love you... There's no doubt about that, I'm deeply in love with you... But I-.. I must ask if you do too..." He looked into your eyes, gaze never broken, he felt anxiety, worried you'd reject him. He'd respect your wishes of course, whatever they may be, but he couldn't help praying that you'd love him too

You took only a couple of seconds to respond, and though it felt like an eternity, you kicked yourself mentally to say something. "I-I..- I love you too-.." you muttered, barely above a whisper, you were so close.. ".. c- come again, dear?" He requested, he heard you, just didn't quite believe it just yet-

The nickname made your heart skip a beat, you swallowed the lump in your throat you didn't even realize was there, "I love you. I love you, too." You repeated, making sure that time he could hear you clearly

You saw his eye shine as he smiled, feeling him sigh in what you could assume was relief before he embraced you, holding you close as you buried your face in the crook of his neck, wrapping your arms around him. You both were incredibly happy that night, and ended up spending the night together in one of the halls connected to bedrooms, cuddled as you talked about anything as always until you both drifted to slumber.

-> finally to general dating headcanons YIPPEE

-> PDA is a bit tough for him, it makes him embarrassed and as much as he'd love to give and receive affection while not in the confines of a room with no other entities with it- he can bring himself to, he gets too embarrassed and stammer-y, the least he can handle is holding your hand or your waist if you're walking somewhere or if you're with him while he's talking to someone

-> but if you're in private... oooooh prepare thyself cuz this man is SO touch starved. he wants your attention and is quite clingy if you dont have any boundaries you'd like to establish regarding personal space. you will be getting Kisses, hugs, you'll be held as much as you'd like him to, you are not immune to cuddling either- HE LIKES TO HOLD YOU IS THAT SUCH A CRIME??

-> You are his first relationship... at least as far as he can remember- the feeling of romantic love is familiar to him so he's felt it before, he just doesn't remember if he's been in a relationship while he was alive

-> He can be a little Jealous, and a little possessive at times- it's nothing he'll ever bring up to end up starting a fight or anything, he has no doubts or concerns about you cheating or anything- he knows you would do that he trusts you deeply. He likes your attention and gets a bit grumpy if you give another too much of your attention, it's enough that you can notice he's a bit upset, sometimes his mind can't help overthinking so its good to give some reassurance sometimes, if not by words then just give him affection of any kind, kisses, a tight squeeze on a hug, hold his hand, its the little things that find their way to reassure him most

-> About the possessiveness- its nothing to worry about too much, max that'll happen regarding that is: him hugging you or slightly tightening his grip on you if he notices another entity looking at you (what he deems is) weirdly, and glaring at them slightly until the cease that. Something that will end up happening 70% of the time after that happens is him being a little more passionate with his kisses, a lot of praise, and sentences with the range of "You're mine.". Take that as you will.

-> ANYWAY, he's a sweetheart, a big gift giver, whatever he can find that he knows you'd like he's taking it to give it to you, no questions asked. if you both met while living he'd be the type to spoil the shit out of you, mention something you'd like to get about your favorite media or something you found nice in a store, I dare you, within that same week it would be in your hands. he still is the type to spoil, if Jeff manages to get his hands on human items to up in his store Seek knows you like he's immediately getting it for you, especially if it's food you've been craving, he'll personally ask Jeff to help him make that for you if he can find the recipe to make it

-> He's a great cook, he doesn't remember where he learned culinary but he's one good cook. Though he doesn't have access to the Hotel's kitchen- one Jeff does for whatever reason, so if he wants to make something edible he has to ask for Jeff's permission, even so, it's really dark in there and Jeff is pretty sensitive to too many lights so if Jeff is to help him make the dish then he kinda has to tape a flashlight to his head so he can see where things are. if Jeff needs to stay in the shop but Seek gets his go ahead then he's fine to turn on the lights as long as he keeps the door to the kitchen closed

-> Date nights with him include dinner he makes and/or going out to the garden to listen to the rain, he enjoys quality time with you as much as he loves you, so as long as you're happy, he couldn't be more pleased

-> Have any hobbies? Drawing, knitting, writing, etc? He is thrilled to know about your hobbies and interests, he enjoys watching you do what you love and enjoy. want to infodump about your media interests? He'll lend you an ear, talk his ear off, he wouldn't mind, he'll try his best to understand what you're explaining to him and try not to get lost in gazing at you and you talk passionately about your interest, he thinks your voice sounds heavenly please don't stop talking.

-> He may even ask you to teach him how to do one of your hobbies, gaining interest in seeing you do it so often. I will say, he'll struggle so much with knitting and crocheting if you try to teach him, those hands were not made for strings, you'll have to untie his hands a lot from the yarn you give him

-> He may or may not tangle himself up on purpose sometimes, call him an attention whore all you want, he can and will go to pathetically funny lengths to have your attention at times. and he'll play the innocent card

"So then you loop the yarn around the-" "uhm... darling-...?" he interrupted you hesitantly, you looked over with a confused smile on your face before it was replaced with one of shock. He was completely tangled in the yarn you were teaching him to knit, his project of a scarf hanging from his head with the needles as the yarn tied around his upper body and arms, how'd he get like that?? You looked away for one second-

"wh- how'd you manage that??? Jesus Christ-" you dropped your needles and project beside you on the couch you both sat upon, hovering your hands back and forth above his form, trying to figure out where to start detangling the man. You heard him laugh softly "I guess the yarn doesn't quite like me." he joked as you attempted to detangle him from one side "God, babe, the hell am I gonna do with you?" you giggled, he looked pretty funny tied up the way he was, looking at him with a warm 'really?' look, you knew he was doing this on purpose at this point

"I dont know.. what ARE you going to do with me?" he asked, a challenging look in his eye as he gazed down at you, you hummed, pulling a string you found that undid the knots around your lover, the yarn fell around him as you grabbed his face with both hands, pulling him closer to yours "I dont think I know yet, I'll figure it out soon though~" you sang, gazing into each other's eyes warmly as you both closed in for a quick kiss, he pulled you into a hug "mm.. I guess this is enough lessons for a bit, until the yarn is not so angry with you anymore, of course." you both laughed softly "sure, my love. thank you for freeing me from my entanglement, by the way." "Anytime, babe."

-> He asks Hide to keep an eye on you when he can't, make sure you're alright and all, yeah? he doesn't trust the other players in this Hotel, what if they hurt you? "what if"s course through his mind as he thinks of every possible outcome. It's what makes him a good planner, but it can also ruin any way for him to see a positive result in a situation, he thinks Inside the Box a little too much- Hide keeps an eye on you through the eyes when you're to meet your Lover and peeking out slightly through closets before quickly disappearing into the darkness when you need to enter one

-> Seek has questioned if he should tell the other entities of your relationship. On one hand- he's scared someone will rat him out to Jack- intentionally or accidentally, on the other, it would be best to tell them so they dont outright kill you. He rather they at least knock you out rather than outright kill you, since killing you would send you back all the way down to the lobby, whilst if they knock you out it makes him be able to quickly snatch you away and nurse you back to consciousness

-> You'll get a headache or be generally sore afterward but who wouldn't after being hit hard enough to pass out, right? Besides, being killed hurts more in the aftermath than being knocked out so you can't quite complain

-> Eventually he does tell the others. Like with the Ambush fic I wrote a while ago, some are supportive, some are indifferent and others are quite hesitant about the idea, but if it makes you happy then they can't complain.

-> I will say it now, Screech is not his kid, never was, fortunately, or unfortunately for some of you. Screech and Sally both have a situation of "It takes a village to raise a child", the village being the adult entities, they all take care of the two in their own ways though Rush seems closer to Screech than the rest. While Seek does well with kids, Screech can be a little much at times, especially with the huge difference between their generations but he tries to understand the little critter. If Screech is with him it's one of three situations:

Screech had a question and no other academically smart entity was available to answer his question

Screech is being lectured for doing something dumb that- let's be real he's likely to do that- Rush encouraged because it would be funny. Sometimes Rush is also being lectured with Screech

Or Screech is just vibing in his general area while he reads a book or watches Screech go about whatever he's doing, the kid claims: "Uncle Seek, Halt, Eyes, Dupe, and Ambush are the most chill to vibe in silence with, but none of the others were free to vibe so Uncle Seek it is!" he says innocently, leaning his smaller form against Seeks arm as the one-eyed entity reads a book with an amused look on his eye

-> It's sweet how they all care for the little ones, even though Screech bites- learning about how almost every entity in this place was human once makes you feel.. kinda bad for him and Sally really, also a bit disturbed, Jack seems to run the shots from what Seek told you, as well as he's the one who turned them into entities in the first place, is this Jack dude really that terrible to have ripped away a child from it's family and life? maybe I'll elaborate more on Screech if he gets requested for platonic hcs or smtg

-> Anyway, some of the entities enjoy your presence around, and you're loved to bits by your lover, honestly for how your first impression of the Hotel went, this is much better than you initially imagined.

[stealth-spiderr]

you needed me. or someone // p.p.

this was requested by one of my loves @noneighborhood sorry it took so long rip i hope you like it xo

summary // it’s been stressful week and sometimes you just gotta cry and you best friend peter is there to make you feel better.

pairing // peter parker x reader

warnings // a lotta crying, swearing

word count // 1,257

It’s finally Friday, but honestly that doesn’t bring you any relief like it usually would. You’ve scarcely survived one of the most stressful weeks ever, 90% of your teachers decided to make big assignments all due this week and somehow you manged to get them all done. Barely. You’d lost countless hours of sleep trying to finish them to your standard of ‘good enough’ which was grade A material. And honestly? You didn’t feel like you’d met the bar.

Monday night you’d finished the first one, definitely not to your satisfaction but there more you changed little things the more you wanted to just scrap it and restart the whole thing, which you definitely didn’t have time for. So that night you forced yourself into bed and after a moment of staring at the ceiling, you broke. You rolled over and buried your face in your pillow to stifle your sobs.

You managed to make it to Wednesday before everything got to much for you once again. you’d walked into your most difficult class, handing in the assignment, which was definitely the one you struggled most to complete only to turn to your desk and see a surprise test on it. You hadn’t exactly been keeping up with class lately in order to get your assignments done so you knew you’d bomb this test badly. You’ve never left a classroom so fast after that test, not even on the last day of the year. You just needed to get out of there, it was getting harder to breathe every time you read and reread each question trying to understand exactly what it was asking. You bolted to the bathrooms, completely missing the concerned eyes of your best friend Peter following you.

Friday was just draining, you were beyond tired from your lack of sleep all week, and your numerous breakdowns didn’t help. Peter could tell how off you were, but normally you’d go to him if anything was bothering you so he hadn’t asked about it. But then he saw you practically falling asleep in your locker, he couldn’t leave it alone.

“Hey,” he says, shaking your shoulder.

It startles you and try to lean on your locker door but it swings away from you sending you falling but Peter catches you easily.

“Scared the hell out of me,” you mumble, pulling him into a hug.

“If you weren’t taking a nap in your locker, it wouldn’t have,” He says with a chuckle. “But seriously, are you getting enough sleep?”

“Yeah, of course.”

You don’t want to worry him, but he tilts his head and gives you a small glare. He can always tell when you’re not being honest with him.

“Look, if you’re up late worrying about my internship you don’t need to be, okay?”

You manage a soft smile and shake your head, “Jeez, Pete, I’m not always thinking about you. I just had a bunch of assignments due this week, that’s all.”

And that wasn’t a lie, because while you usually were kept awake worrying about Peter while he out saving Queens as Spider-man, your overwhelming workload definitely took the forefront of your mind the past few nights.

Peter nods in understanding before checking his phone and sighing.

“Go on, save the city,” you tell him.

He grins at you and starts walking away but turns back, “Maybe I could come by yours later? Make sure you don’t stay up all night.”

“Yeah, I’d like that.”

“Awesome, cool, I’ll see you later, then.”

“Bye, Pete.

And the second he’s gone the bubble of happy he created popped and a week’s worth of stress falls back on your shoulders. You’re slow leaving the school, the short walk to your car sapping most of your energy. You don’t have a long drive home, but right now it feels like it and you’re barely half way home when your eyes are filling with tears, dangerously clouding your vision.

“Fuck,” you shout, after wiping your eyes three times to get rid of the fast flowing tears.

You quickly pull over and you lose it. It doesn’t even matter if anyone can see you. You just let everything out, bringing your knees up onto the seat, turning to the side so you don’t accidentally bump the horn. Minutes go by and you’re still sobbing, your shirt is a mess from using it to wipe your face but you snap your head up when the passenger door opens. It’s Peter, pulling the spidey mask off so he can be just Peter with you.

“Pete, someone’s gonna see you,” you say in between sobs.

“I don’t care about that, I care about you, (Y/N). What’s wrong?” he answers, a gloved hand resting on your knee.

“God, what’s right? This week has been the worst, I had, like, six assignments due and I got a maximum of eight or nine hours sleep since Monday. I fell asleep in my locker for fuck’s sake! It’s too much.”

Your breathing speeds up again, and your fingers are digging into your shins so Peter grabs them and squeezes tight, thumbs rubbing along your knuckles softly. It takes a while but you calm down, your head resting on the seat, watching Peter with heavy eyes. He’s looking your joined hands, thumbs still moving over your skin but he brings his gaze to yours when you sniff and shift a little.

“I’m sorry you wasted your time here when you could have been saving Queens,” you mumble.

He lets go of one of your hands and brings it to your head, smoothing out your messy hair before cupping your cheek, “I was saving Queens, I was saving you.”

“I wasn’t in danger-”

“No, but you needed me. Or someone, at least. What kind of best friend would I be if I saw you crying in your car and just left you to it?”

“A shitty one.”

“Exactly.”

He examines you, looking like a right mess. Red eyes, swollen face, sticky with semi-dry tears. And yet, to Peter, you were still breath taking.

“You know I love you, right?” he asks.

“Yeah, of course I do. I love you too, so much,” you reply.

There’s a pause before Peter mumbles, “I love love you.”

He had no intention for you to hear it, but you did. He’d said it too loud for the quietness of the car and you took a sharp breath at words. Which Peter heard, instantly realising you’d heard his biggest secret he’d ever kept from you. His cheeks burned and he looked away from you to try and hide it but you could see the red as easily as the red of his suit.

“Pete-”

“No, you don’t need to say anything, I’m sorry if I ruined our friendship. I don’t want us to be weird, so if you need time I totally understand-”

“Peter, we aren’t going to be weird because we’re us. And I love love you too.”

“Really?”

You nod and he grins, bringing your hand he was still holding to his face and kissing it.

“Okay, so how about Spider-man takes the day off so he can cuddle with his girlfriend and watch movies?”

You crack a smile, “Sounds great to his girlfriend.”

You start the engine and pull back out onto the road in the direction of your place but Peter pats your arm and juts his thumb behind him.

“Actually can you turn around? I need to get my backpack or May will be so mad at me.”
