Boring.
So boring.
Nothing but boring, stupid, dirty boxes and crates that the Merc was looking at for a full hour now. And the rails he was sitting on were super cold on his butt, too.
He was pretty sure that the mark he was waiting for wouldn’t show up anymore.
Wade was pissed and so close to just blowing this shitty warehouse up.
{But wouldn’t that mean no money?}
[Yeah.]
{But we want money! LOTS OF MONEY!}
“Shut up, goddamnit, I know!”
“Know what?”
Wade looked down and saw a delicate red-and-blue-clad foot dissappear. The Merc turned around and watched as Spiderman crawled up the metal wall behind him, then up onto the ceiling.
“The boxes are harrassing me, Honey. And my stupid mark doesn’t turn up,” he whined, while Spiderman turned and stared at him upside-down.
“You mean my mark?” the younger man asked and Wade heard the grin in his voice.
“Yeah, yeah. I still need him to unlock the whatever-it-is in the boxes to get my money, then you can web him up.”
“We’ll just wait for a little longer. You never know, he’s probably into drugs. Let’s say, if ... if he’s not here by three we go home,” Peter proposed and Wade had to look down for a moment to hide the huge grin that would definitely show under his mask.
He just loved it when Peter mentioned the two of them as a unit, or that they would go home, THEIR home, together and all.
“Yeah, let’s do that,” he mumbled once he could stop smiling so hard.
So they waited.
And waited.
But, really, this time it wasn’t so bad, because they talked in low voices, joked, made plans for a nice dinner the next day.
Three AM was creeping up on them and their mark was nowhere to be seen, but Wade’s mood wasn’t too bad anymore. Actually, he didn’t care that much at all, as long as he had Peter in front of him, this wonderful lithe body dangling from a web.
“Hey, can I get a kiss?”
Peter looked up, mid-sentence – oops – and cocked his head to the side.
“Uh ... yeah ...?” the younger man answered and started to crawl up on his web towards the Mercenary.
”No, wait, stay like that. Let’s do it like on TV!” he explained, pretty sure that that was the best idea he’s had this night. And the most entertaining.
“What did you watch?” Peter giggled, but slid down the web until he was directly in front of his boyfriend.
“Some show about you and they had the you-guy kiss a girl upside-down in the rain. It was kinda hot, but I like it better without the rain and all.”
Peter laughed, which was the best sound ever for all times.
“C’mere!” Wade demanded cheerfully, then pulled the younger hero closer. He lifted the mask slowly, finding an absolutely kissable mouth slightly curved with an amused smile.
That was about the longest he could hold himself with his lover so near, so he lunged forward and kissed Peter.
After a few seconds, the younger man broke the kiss, laughing.
“With the mask on?”, he giggled and Wade allowed himself the huge grin this time.
“Babe, you can have everything under the costume as soon as we get home,” the Merc promised and Peter laughed louder, before jumping over to a small, open window.
A shimmering web appeared in the middle of Wade’s chest and the Merc howled with laughter as Peter hauled him through the window and they made a beeline for their appartment.
