    Summary

    To think of Spider-Man is to think of crime fighting, life saving, justice serving. To think of Spider-Man is to think of web slinging, wall climbing, avenging. To think of Spider-Man, really, is to think of the farthest thing from ordinary.

    But here he is. Red-and-blue wonder, buying groceries at the store.

     
    (Michelle gets sick and Peter helps out).

    Summary

    She cups the side of his face fondly and presses their foreheads together. “Peter,” she whispers, “that is the dumbest thing I have ever heard.”

    He closes his eyes and takes a deep breath. He feels her affectionately knock her nose against his own. This, he thinks, this is what he fought for all those months ago. “It is pretty dumb,” he readily agrees.

    Her mouth grazes his in a sweet, brief kiss. “Mhmm. Very dumb.”

    “Hey now. I said pretty dumb.”

    “You just want me to call you pretty.”

    Summary

    Ned pauses before taking an opportunity to make Peter’s stomach churn with nerves, “and try not to fall in love with your new roommate.”

    “I’m not going to fall in love with her,” he blushes, hiding his embarrassment by loading the suitcases into the trunk. “I don’t even know her.”

    Michelle Jones subleases the extra room in Peter's apartment for a semester – pining ensues.

    Summary

    “I have no idea,” he says, before lowering his voice because he’s still not convinced she’s not listening in on their conversations. The fear is well founded, alright? He swears she looks at him sometimes – with that quirked eyebrow, and penetrating gaze – as if she knows his every secret. And he has secrets. One big, red and blue, spandex covered, web-slinging, secret that no one can find out about. “Who knows anything about Jones?”

    And it’s a legitimate question.

    He knows next to nothing about their colleague.

    Apart from the fact she’s damn good at her job, is incapable of uttering a sentence that isn’t dripping in sarcasm, is a little (a whole lot) intimidating, he knows nothing about Michelle Jones.

    Not for lack of trying though.

    Summary

    Peter thinks about his hands. How they’re still shaking as he’s holding his phone, how his brain hurts from being in so much stress all the time. He could start talking about that. Instead, he asks:

    ‘What were you reading?’
    ‘Poetry. It helps me sleep, usually,’ she adds, a page turning in the background.

    Poetry sounds about good right now. Anything to set his mind off Titan, really.
    ‘Would you mind...reading it to me? Please?’

    Set after the events of Infinity War. Peter is having trouble sleeping, so he asks MJ for help.

    Summary

    It’s a house like many others. White picket fence, the paint job being eaten by years of sun and water damage.
    In the backyard, an old swing set miraculously holds up, rust slowly breaking it apart.

    When her fingers start dissolving, she doesn’t know if she’ll remember any of it, so she clings to it tooth and nail.

    As she stares at the fence, desperately gasping for air, she catches a glimpse of her parents writing. Staring back at her, a growth chart stands, obsolete heights and long forgotten friendships carved into the wood.

    Everything will be okay.
    All she needs to do is remember.

    “You'd be that one." He presses his finger to the glass. "The pink-ish, orange-ish, yellow-ish, purple-ish -”

    “-just say rainbow-”

    “-rainbow fish. Look at her. She’s so pretty. Bet she’s real smart, too. Her eyes just scream intelligence, you know? All the other fish have a three second memory, but I bet she’s got like a five second memory. Maybe six. She’s clearly queen of the tank.”

    “You’re a real dork, you know that?”

    “Says the captain of the academic decathlon team.”

    Summary

    On Monday, Flash catches Michelle's gaze in the hall and Michelle catches his, turns it into something dark and scathing, and throws it back. The incline of his eyebrow is asking, have you sorted Peter's shit out yet? Michelle doesn't even bother schooling into her features into an expression that could read as an answer. He's not worth her time.

    And, plus, the answer is no.

    She's given up all her recent opportunities to question Peter. She doesn't want to interrogate him about his life. She doesn't want him to think she cares.

    Because she doesn't. Not really. The thought of caring, of being actively involved in someone else's life seems messy. Complicated. Especially if that someone is Peter Parker.

    This is why she sticks to observing people quietly from the sidelines.

     

    (Peter has been acting weird and Michelle tries not to care).

    (And fails).

    Summary

    Peter doesn’t bring anything up at dinner even though May is giving him some serious side eye and can’t stop looking at him with that contemplative look of hers. And then, while he’s washing the dishes and handing them to her to dry, she asks, nonchalant as she can manage, “So when did you and Michelle start dating?”

    “MJ and I are just friends.”

    Or, a story in which Peter and Michelle insist that they are just friends, to the belief of no one around them.

    Summary

    Michelle is entirely unimpressed by the whole Spider-Man thing.

    She acts like it's another extraciricular, except less than because, “You can't even put it on your Common App, Parker.”

    He's not sure what he expected, but he shouldn't have expected anything else. This is Michelle, beautiful, smart, and forever unenthused Michelle.

    Summary

    Michelle Jones. You want something done? You call her, you take her price and it’s done, no questions asked.

    She’s never refused a job. Helping cheat on a final? Crisp $35. Want someone to ask your crush out for you? $15, but if you want something extravagant that’s $30 and you pay for supplies. Get proof of the supposed love of your life getting anatomy lessons with someone who definitely isn’t you behind the alleyway by the garbage bins? That’ll be $85, and an extra $20 if they’re naked (for the emotional trauma).

    “Jones,” growls Flash, slamming his wallet on the cafeteria table. “Find out who Spider-Man is, and find out how Parker knows him.”

    She thinks for a half-moment. That’s longer than she’s ever considered a deal. “500, Thompson, and I want a new camera.”
