    After the events that nearly killed Peter, Jean Grey left a door open in her mind she cannot fully close. The psychic link is mild, one-way, and deeply inconvenient. Distance makes her powers slip in small, frustrating ways. Proximity settles them.

    She keeps trying to board the bus north.

    He keeps being the reason she doesn’t.

    Summary

    Peter had gone through a rough couple of years. Spiderman was still suffering the effects of Mysterio. Peter Parker was suffering the isolation of the spell. He had reached his lowest point since he donned the mask, and stayed there for four years.

    Then everything changed when he met her. When he woke up from that hospital bed, shot in the chest, receiving a letter from Jean. He learned of a mansion owned by a Charles Xavier, a home for mutants like them, and that Jean wanted him to come join her there.

    Peter knew there was only one choice for him to make. After all, he had promised her they had each other. And he needed that just as much as she did.

    Summary

    Then, several weeks later, a knock came at his front door.

    He hadn't been expecting anyone.

    He pushed himself away from the desk and made his way toward the door. When he opened it, he was met with a sight that left him momentarily speechless.

    Surprise came first.

    Then relief.

    After weeks of searching for her, Peter had never imagined that Jean would be the one to find him.

    Yet there she was, standing on his doorstep.

    She wore what she seemed to favor most—a loose, oversized jacket with the hood pulled over her head, casting most of her face into shadow. Still, Peter could see enough to know that she looked well.

    Better than he had expected, considering everything that had happened.

    For a few seconds, neither of them said anything.
    Peter simply stood there, taking her in, trying to convince himself that she was really standing in front of him.

    Jean finally broke the silence.

    “Can I come in?”

    Summary

    No one deserved to be alone.

    It’s been a mantra that’s been on repeat in his mind for some time now. It came into full throttle when he met her.

    Alone just like him.

    Broken just like him.

    Lost just like him.

    Two broken souls trying to find their way in a world that moved on its own without waiting for them to catch up.

    Summary

    Xavier's is loud. Every mind bleeds into every other mind and Jean is so, so tired of the noise. Peter Parker's frequency is the only thing in her head that doesn't feel like static. She reaches out expecting him to shut her out. He doesn't. This is probably a mistake. She's going to do it again tomorrow.

    Summary

    Peter had dimples when he smiled wide, like he was doing then, looking at the empty plate then up to her eyes and then back down to the plate. Jean liked seeing them.

    (Jean didn’t think about how much she also liked seeing the corners of his brown eyes crinkle with laughter, or that she’d noticed them glow like honey in the morning sun some days, or that she chased the soft pink that sometimes bloomed on his face when he was flustered.

    No, she only thought about the dimples, and how maybe no one else had seen them in years.)

     

    Or: Jean Grey and Peter Parker both relearn what it means to come home.

    Summary

    Three years ago, everyone forgot Peter Parker.

    Well... almost everyone.

    Jean Grey remembers the strange wave of energy that swept through the world that night, but she never figured out what caused it. Three years later, she feels that same energy again.

    This time, it belongs to a very tired, very secretive college student who apparently has no idea why a red-haired girl keeps staring at him.

    Peter has university, an internship with Dr. Otto Octavius, and the small matter of being Spider-Man. Jean has her own problems, a missing sister, college, and a growing suspicion that Peter Parker is hiding something very weird.

    Somewhere between coffee, late-night studying, questionable movie recommendations, and one very persistent mystery, they become friends.

    And then things get complicated.

    Very, very complicated. ♡

    Summary

    Jean Grey was in disbelief. Just a week ago, she was breathing for Peter Parker as he was lying in the hospital bed, unconscious. But now it's late 2015. The time before she met Spider-Man. Before her sister Sara was captured by Damage Control. Before the Avengers defeated Thanos. Before the Snap.

    Jean felt a sudden urge to check something. She opened a search engine and typed Peter Parker's name into it.

    It showed results. His Instagram page, his Facebook account. A photo of him and his aunt at the entrance ceremony to Midtown High.

    Jean understood then that she had returned to a time before the spell.

    She looked at the calendar again — it was December of 2015.

    "...I'm not too late to apply for Midtown High, am I?"

    Summary

    Jean Grey has been enrolled in Xavier’s School for Gifted Youngsters for a couple of weeks now.

    She usually keeps to herself, so most of the other students and faculty don’t know much about her.

    They know three things.

    She’s a powerful telepath and telekinetic.

    She had a sister named Sara she lost.

    And most recently, they learned she’s a big fan of Spider-Man. Emphasis on BIG.

    She constantly denies the last one, no matter how obvious it is to everyone else. They thought it was a cute crush.

    They didn’t exactly know just how…invested she was in him. But they will soon.

    Or

    The story of the X-Men learning about Jean’s interest in Spider-Man, and how much she’s into him. They might need to have a chat with her about it.

    Summary

    In the aftermath of the fight that should have been the end of him, Spider-Man ponders two impossible truths:

    One: For a moment, brief as it may have been, his spider-sense had gone quiet, as if he was as safe as he would have been inside of his own apartment.
    Two: The gunman had cried.

    On their own, these truths mean nothing. Together, held up against a light, Peter can't help but think they look suspiciously similar to a girl with red hair and a penchant for solving problems from a long distance.

    Summary

    Four months after talking down a telepath who froze a city block, and taking a bullet in the process, Peter Parker is stuck in an exhausting holding pattern. He's grateful for the lack of superpowered threats… and profoundly bored of the routine. After all, there were only so many small-time drug dealers and bank-robbing shmucks who thought they were the next Danny Ocean that could hold his interest.

    Then Jean Grey turns up on his couch at midnight, and everything changes yet again. Nobody said the process of going from having no one to having even just one would be easy, even for a superhero.

    Summary

    “What’s... what’s today’s date?” Jean whispered, her voice barely audible, Sara showed a confused look, but entertained her question.

    “It’s Tuesday. April 24th, 2018” Sara answered, searching Jean’s face for any sign of a fever or possible brain damage. “You slept straight through dinner. Mom was worried, but I told her you were just stressed about exams.”

    April 24th, 2018.

     
    All she wanted was to save him, she didn't mean to send them back in time a week before that fateful day.

    An Infinity War Rewrite, but make it SpiderPhoenix-coded wahahahaha

    Summary

    Peter wakes up shot, three days behind on everything, with Frank at the window and a vigil outside. Jean is already gone, and he has no idea where she went.
    This is what should have been the end of it. Instead, the connection that remains between them draws them somewhere none of them understands.
