KATE HELPED AROUND at F.E.A.S.T for the next several days. Y/N was always there by her side offering a helping hand and giving her company. Although he wasn't realizing it, or just didn't want to, he was taking Martin Li's advice. Maybe deep inside, he did want to form some type of relationship again.

In those days, Kate appreciated the eighteen-year-old for being there when he didn't have to. He seemed to want to help anytime she needed the assistance, even if it seemed like she could do it herself. But she enjoyed the company, especially from a friendly and...if she had to admit... a rather cute-looking boy that was around her age.

Y/N carried a box of doughnuts while Kate held a decanter filled with coffee. They walked around the main area of the shelter handing out the pastries and filling cups to those who wanted them.

"So you're technically twenty-three?" Kate asked as they continued their conversation.

"Yeah, but like many others now, it doesn't matter." He replied mentioning how he was Blipped. "I could've been drinking age by now but here we are."

He handed a doughnut to a woman and Kate filled her coffee. They started moving on down to another group of people.

"What's stopping you?" She asked. "I don't have any problems with that."

"Well, you're about to turn twenty-one next year so there's some wiggle room there. And I suppose the venues you go to don't really care to card you, Ms. Big Bucks."

"Hey!"

Y/N let out a chuckle and gesticulated toward his heart. "I'm kidding, I'm kidding."

She lightly laughed in return and continued serving the pastries to the people.

The two young volunteers were in a room sorting items and toys that children would play with. Kate put them back in boxes after Y/N cleaned and disinfected them.

"O-M-G." Kate held the action figure that Y/N had just cleaned. "It's Hawkeye."

The boy glanced at it before continuing to clean the toy he currently had.

"Yeah, I know. I'm surprised we still have that."

"Surprised? Why?" She looked into the box. "We have the rest of the main four. Of course, he has to be included."

"It's just...you know...who really likes Hawkeye?"

Kate let out a gasp. It caught Y/N's attention and he looked at her.

"What?" He asked.

"I like Hawkeye." She replied.

"Really?"

"He's the best Avenger."

Y/N nodded and let out a chuckle. "If you say so."

"If you say so." She imitated. "Clint Barton is the heart and soul of the team, even though people don't want to admit it."

"Sure." He nodded and kept cleaning one of the toys. "Sure."

"You suck." Kate said with a chuckle. "Who's your favorite then?"

"Um...well..." Y/N looked into another box and spotted a familiar item. He grabbed it and held it up. "Ah. Here you go."

Kate snickered upon seeing the toy. "Ant-Man?"

"He's cool. Very underrated."

"Out everyone you pick the shrinking guy." Kate looked into her box and went through other toys. "You could've done Cap, Doctor Strange, or even..." She grabbed one of the figures and held them up.

"Another bug-themed hero...Spider-Man." Kate added.

Y/N glanced at it and simply nodded. He looked back down at the toy he was cleaning and spoke.

"Yeah...he's cool too."

Kate looked at the toy. "He is. It's very interesting how he hides who he is and does what he does just because...he can. He doesn't need or want the recognition. And while the others are either doing bigger things or waiting for extreme threats...he's there for the city. For the little guy."

The boy took in her words. She basically explained his whole mission as Spider-Man and what he was there for. It felt great knowing she was one of the people who understood.

"But, then again, Hawkeye is better." She added.

That brought a laugh out of Y/N. Kate laughed as well and the two continued sorting the items.

In the gymnasium within the community center, Kate and Y/N were there along with several other occupants. A group of guys played basketball on one half of the court while a few others watched what Kate had to demonstrate on the other.

The day before, a man who used to be an MMA fighter had a conversation with Kate about the sport. So for an activity and to have some fun, she was allowed to teach a brief class on self-defense.

They had a blue mat as padding over the hardwood. Y/N was on the side watching as she gave simple and easy-to-learn pointers. Midway through, she briefly sparred with the former MMA fighter, who she was able to take down. Y/N nodded in an impressed manner.

"Wow, she knocked you on your ass, Roddy." A woman told the man.

He got up and let out a laugh. "I told you already, chica is no joke."

Kate placed her hands on her hips and smiled. "I have four black belts. In TaeKwonDo, Judo, Aikido, and Karate. I'm currently working on getting mine for Brazilian jiu-jitsu."

A collective murmur came from the class. Y/N crossed his arms and nodded yet again. One of the people looked at him on the side and spoke.

"How about you, bro?"

"What?" Y/N asked.

"You must know some things."

He chuckled. "What makes you think that?"

"A week ago I saw you help that kid that was being harassed by those hoodlums outside the shelter. They bolted after you took one of them down."

"Right! You told me about that." Another guy told the man.

Y/N immediately recalled the incident. A group of twenty-year-olds was going to beat up a teenager that decided to leave their so-called gang. Luckily, Y/N was around and scared them before it could happen. He didn't know that somebody saw him...but again, he wasn't really good at laying low.

"That was...in the spur of the moment." Y/N finally replied.

"You know how to fight?" Kate asked him and motioned him to the mat. "Come on, show me what you got."

"Uh...I don't..."

The class spoke in unison and basically cheered for the young man to be a part of the lesson. Y/N was often one to cave in to pressure, as he remembered the time he attended Liz's party because he somehow knew Spider-Man.

"Come on." Kate called out and joined the people in egging him on.

Y/N let out a sigh and walked up to the mat. The people clapped and the boy chuckled.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah. Woo-hoo." He said sarcastically.

Kate looked at him. "What do you know?"

"Uh..."

Y/N wasn't sure. His moves and fighting styles were based on his speed, agility, and reflexes. He often improvised his moves and used some from action movies he'd watch.

"Aikido?" She asked again.

"Eye-what-o?"

Suddenly, Kate threw a straight punch at Y/N. His spider-sense alerted him of the incoming attack and he trapped her hand in a hold before pushing her back.

The group reacted with a collective murmur. Kate quickly rolled back to her feet and chuckled.

"What's with the fake obliviousness? That was pretty good."

"You were actually going to punch me." Y/N replied with a snicker.

"And thankfully you were able to avoid it. But how about this?"

Immediately, Y/N could sense the incoming barrage of attacks. The well-trained female combatant swung at the boy and tried landing kicks. Y/N could've just let himself get beat, fall to the mat, and submit, but a part of him didn't want to. It's as if he wanted to show her a side of him that she didn't know yet, a side apart from the friendly and awkward one.

He was on the defensive and evaded the woman's punches and kicks. Kate landed another kick but Y/N trapped it. She tried to kick him with her other foot but the man was able to duck.

Kate tried landing more punches but Y/N successfully grabbed both hands and pulled her in toward his chest, trapping her. There was a pause in the sparring as they looked at each other for a brief moment, their faces only a couple of inches apart. They questioned what the next move would be.

Suddenly, Kate took the opportunity to hit Y/N in the chest and break free. She rolled backward and threw Y/N behind her here he landed on the mat.

The people loved the display they were witnessing. With the boy now on the ground, they decided Kate was the winner and applauded her. Y/N got on a knee and looked up, seeing Kate holding her hand out to him. He took it and was helped up.

"Wow, you are spectacular." She complimented. "Not many people can keep up with me that long."

Y/N breathily chuckled and rolled his shoulder around. He wasn't hurt or exhausted but needed to act as if he was.

"Gee...thanks." He replied, to which Kate smiled back.

"Chica knocked you on your ass too." The former MMA fighter called out to the boy.

His female colleague looked at him. "Yeah, but he lasted ten times longer than you."

"Yeah, yeah." The man replied with an eye roll.

On a Tuesday night, Y/N and Kate were finishing up their shift. Afterward, they bid farewell to Martin Li and the staff before leaving the shelter.

They walked through the neighborhood of Chinatown. Kate's apartment was about seven blocks away from the shelter near NoHo, so as their treks often were, it wasn't gonna be long.

"So you just completely avoid watching them?" Kate asked Y/N. They were talking about basketball.

"Sometimes I don't find the time or I just want to save myself from the pain." He replied with hands in his pockets. "The Knicks were trash before I Blipped and when I come back...they still are."

"You gotta give them a chance. Or move on to the WNBA like me. It's way more fun to watch."

"Liberty fan, then?"

"No. I watch the Las Vegas Aces. More so because Becky Hammon coaches them. I love her."

Y/N chuckled. "I'll check them out. You know...I grew up watching basketball."

"Had someone that'd take you?" She asked.

Y/N immediately thought of his father and Ben Parker. They both would take him and Peter to games whether it'd be for the Mets or the Knicks.

"Yeah...my dad used to. He was a big fan of the Knicks."

Kate noticed his dejected state after answering. The boy never mentioned any family before and the way he acted made her assume that he wasn't in his life anymore.

They kept walking and Kate suddenly stopped. She called out to him.

"Wait."

Y/N turned around and raised a brow. Kate began to take something out of her coat.

"I was going to wait to give you this...but now I'm thinking what the heck. Merry early Christmas."

Kate handed him a small gift bag. Y/N was still pretty confused as he took it and examined the item.

"The present isn't the bag itself." Kate jested as the boy eyed the gift bag for some time.

"You didn't have to." Y/N finally spoke.

"I wanted to. Besides, Ms. Big Bucks wanted to be nice for once."

He chuckled after remembering the name he called her once. He finally took out a small black case within the bag and opened it.

It was a sleek charcoal ring with a silver stripe going all around it. It also contained two small diamonds that were the color of his birthstone. The gift had Y/N taken aback.

"Heh...I can't take this, Kate." He said. "How much—"

"It doesn't matter. I just wanted to give you something. To thank you for being such a great guy and being my guide for the last couple of weeks. Without you, my time at the shelter would've been either really tough or really boring."

Y/N smiled softly and looked back down at the ring. He took in a breath.

"But I...I didn't get you anything. It doesn't feel right."

"You don't have to. Unless you really want to...then I'll give you a list of the things I like." She joked.

The young man laughed and closed the case he placed it back into the gift bag and looked at Kate.

"Thank you."

Kate nodded and hugged Y/N. She knew the boy was hurting at times, and although Y/N never told her why she still wanted to offer any sort of comfort she can.

On his part, Y/N was very happy to have a friend like Kate around. She was becoming the first real bond he had after the spell that erased the world's memory of him was done. He wanted a relationship like that again.

But then that voice in his head shouted and scolded him. He can't have a relationship. He can't have close friendships. He can't bring anybody into his life. Anybody close to Y/N L/N would also be close to Spider-Man...and that'd lead to the person being in danger.

Y/N didn't know which part of himself to listen to.

The two parted and Y/N gave a soft smile back. They continued walking down the sidewalk and were a few blocks away from her apartment.

Suddenly, a couple of police cars sped through the intersection on their way to deal with an incident. Y/N looked on at the cruisers before they could cross the street.

"Uh...I'm sorry, Kate. I left my phone in the inventory back at the shelter. I gotta go get it."

"Want me to come?"

"No, it's fine. I'll see you tomorrow, yeah?"

She nodded. "Yeah."

"Again, thank you for the gift." He started to walk away. "It means a lot. Really."

He turned around and jogged down the sidewalk. Kate watched him for a few seconds turning around herself and crossing the street.

Y/N glanced back once she turned around and slipped into a nearby alley. He looked up and with one swift movement, leaped onto the rooftop of the small building. There, he took off his clothes and revealed the Spider-Man suit underneath.

After putting on the shoes of his costume, he looked at the gift bag on the floor. He took the case and opened it up, looking at the ring again. He didn't feel comfortable leaving the jewelry unattended on the rooftop, so he decided to put it on.

Y/N put his glove on over his ring and then put on his other one. The web-slinger put on his mask last and ran off the rooftop, initiating his swing through the intersection.

• • •

Y/N HAD SOME interesting plans that night. After volunteering at the shelter until the afternoon, Kate told him about a charity gala happening at the Presidential Hotel in Midtown...an event she decided to invite him to. Y/N wasn't sure about it at first, but after hearing that she mentioned him to her mother, he felt like he should.

She also said it was an event she didn't want to go to, so being there with someone else would make it better. Besides, being a plus one was the least he could do for the gift she gave him.

Now, they were in the venue. Y/N wore a pretty cheap suit he had in a box that he still hadn't unpacked. Kate wore a tuxedo herself, which was all black and stood out compared to the other women in the room. Her mother wanted her to wear a red dress like her, but she decided against it. Eleanor didn't care and her full attention was on the night she was having with her partner, Jack Duquesne.

Y/N stood with Kate by a table, his hands in his pockets as they engaged in small talk. The boy had his eyes fixated on his surroundings, looking at the guests and waiters passing by. It was very familiar, as this was the same exact place he and Daredevil stopped Kingpin, Poindexter, and Shocker.

"Get back to work." A server randomly told them as he walked by.

Kate laughed and was followed by Y/N. The boy glanced at her.

"Did I really dress that bad? That I look like a waiter?" He asked.

"Why'd he tell me, then?" Kate replied. "I'm way better dressed than you."

As they talked, an older man went up to them. Immediately, he seemed to recognize Kate.

"Oh! You're the little Bishop girl."

She awkwardly nodded. "Yes, I am."

"Armand. Armand Duquesne." He greeted. "You use to come to my brownstone for brunch."

"Oh, build your own blintz bar."

"Precisely." He chuckled, then looked at Y/N. "Young man, and you are?"

"Y/N." He greeted. "Y/N L/N."

"L/N? Are you related to that poor journalist who passed away a month ago?"

Immediately, Y/N felt a hit in his heart. Armand heard of what happened to his father, Michael. Despite that, Y/N composed himself and shook his head.

"No. I'm sorry, I don't know who you're talking about."

Y/N looked down and Kate noticed his reaction. Before the silence could linger, Armand spoke to Kate again.

"You know, it's unfair. I never looked that good in a tuxedo in my life."

Kate laughed at his remark. The man continued.

"But I'd appreciate if you wear something a little more lady-like for the wedding so we won't be competing."

"What wedding?" Kate asked with an arched brow.

"You don't know? Eleanor and Jack." He noticed her confusion. "Oh! Those secretive little love birds."

Kate was rather shocked at the revelation that her mother was going to marry another man. Armand explained how he tried to talk his relative out of it but that Jack's mind was set on being with Eleanor.

"Seems like he won the jackpot." Kate remarked.

"You think so? So does he." He took a sip of his glass. "That I'm not so sure."

There was yet again awkward silence. Armand decided it was best to bid his farewells to the young lady.

"Well, uh, I'm gonna make my excuses because it seems that you need to have a chat with your prize of a mother. Until next time, Miss Bishop." He also nodded at Y/N. "Young man."

Armand left the two. Kate shook her head and looked straight ahead at Eleanor and Jack, who was laughing with a group of other people.

"Uh...can you excuse me for a minute?" She asked Y/N.

He knew what she wanted to do. "Sure. Go ahead."

Kate feigned a smile and went over to talk with her mother. Y/N sighed as he stood back by the table. A waiter passed by with beverages and he quickly grabbed one.

Upon taking a sip, he realized it was empty. He shook his head and put it down. That was just his luck.

Kate had decided to go outside after confronting her mother. Y/N was still inside, deciding to respect her privacy and space as she reacted to the sudden news of the marriage. He was inside for quite a while, mostly standing around hearing the faint music or on his cell phone scrolling through social media.

The boy actually started an account for his alter-ego, Spider-Man, a few weeks ago. He'd usually post pictures of himself on top of skyscrapers or updates on random things...like the Knicks.

His handle was NYCWallCrawler and had a good amount of followers to start. Nothing compared to people like the Hulk or Ant-Man. He also didn't really have to worry about getting hacked or anything, Y/N was a tech whiz and knew what to do to keep that from happening.

As he was on the phone, he felt his spider-sense go off. He looked up and a brief visual of the looming threat appeared in his head.

A bomb.

A couple of seconds later, an explosion erupted on a lower floor of the hotel. The room rumbled and the lights flickered until most of them shut off. An alarm quickly sounded and people began to leave in a panic.

Y/N looked around at the running patrons before slipping away to an empty room. There, he removed his cheap suit and donned his Spider-Man attire.

The Tracksuit Draculas stormed the cellar where the auction was taking place. They wore balaclavas and had guns in hand.

Armand and Jack, who were bidding at the auction, stood with other buyers and looked at one of the gunmen.

One rich patron stared at him and exclaimed. "Do you know who I am?"

Suddenly, he was shot in the leg. They looked on in shock as the man fell to the floor. The shooter stepped out of the hole in the wall and grasped his pistol.

"No. And yet, I don't care." The man with white face paint spoke.

It was Kazimierz Kazimierczak. Kazi.

The Clown.

"Who...are—are you insane?" The injured yet bold man groaned. "Where'd you come from?"

"I told you." Kazi aimed the pistol at him. "I came from hell."

Before he can shoot, the man was kicked in the side and hurled away. The gunman beside Kazi tried to react but he was also attacked and sent to the floor.

Kate Bishop, donning the Ronin suit that was being auctioned off, looked at the patrons who were in awe.

"Hello." She simply said.

A gunshot sounded and Kate ducked to avoid the incoming bullets. She shouted at the patrons to get out of the room which they did, but Jack made sure to grab the unattended Ronin sword before leaving.

Kate dealt with the Draculas inside the cellar. Meanwhile, many were outside trying to gather the stolen items and look for the special watch their boss wanted.

"I found it!" One of them exclaimed.

"That's all we need, bro." His colleague replied. "Anything else is bonus, bro."

A Tracksuit member came out of the cellar holding a bag. The man was suddenly grabbed by a swinging Spider-Man and thrown into the back of their open truck. The web-slinger landed beside the other members who looked on at the newcomer.

"What's Spider-Man doing here, bro?" A Dracula exclaimed. "He's gonna mess everything up!"

"Ah! Thanks for the confidence boost, man." Y/N quipped.

One of them shot their handgun at Spider-Man and the hero cartwheeled away from the gunfire. He webbed the gun away mid-move and threw it aside before leaping at the group.

Y/N ended up grappling a man's neck with his legs and hurled him backward where he hit a wall. He was on all fours when another Dracula stood over Y/N and aimed his gun at him.

The web-slinger reacted by kicking the man's face and then jumping up. He landed on the downed criminal's chest and bounced off to punch two others nearby. 

Suddenly, more guys arrived and saw the hero over their defeated colleagues.

"Get him, bros!"

They charged Spider-Man. The web-slinger weaved away from their melee attacks and started to fight them off.

"Great, backup's here." Y/N scoffed mid-brawl. "Why don't I have backup? Oh right, nobody likes me!"

Y/N landed a spinning kick and sent a Tracksuit member crashing into the side of a dumpster. Another swung a bat but the teenager backflipped over the man. He then push-kicked and caused him to impact one of his colleagues.

"Hey, arrivees. Did I mention this was a rent party? Chip in." He quickly webbed one of their faces and dodged an attack coming from another. "No, for real, I need rent money."

Meanwhile, one of the Tracksuit members was frantically packing up the watch and other items into a bag. Out of nowhere, a dog ran in and began to bite his leg.

"Hey! Get off me!" He fell to the floor as the animal pulled him down. "I will get you, dumb dog!"

Another shout was heard. "Hey!"

Kate, still in the Ronin suit, ran out of the cellar and kicked the Dracula in the face. With him down, she looked up and saw Spider-Man fighting off the group in the alley.

Y/N was able to catch a glimpse of her but was preoccupied. She wanted to assist, but upon hearing the dog's bark and seeing it run away, she chose to chase it.

A Tracksuit who was beaten by Spider-Man noticed her and called out to the others.

"It's the Ronin! Boss wants him dead and I'll make sure of it." He exclaimed and started to run after her.

Y/N overheard this and didn't want any harm to come to the person, despite barely seeing them and not knowing who they were. He needed to handle the men quickly.

He trapped one of their arms after a jab and immediately threw him into a dumpster, where the lid shut. Another one ran to him and he kicked him in the knee before knocking him out with a spinning back kick.

The last man looked on in awe at how quickly he dealt with the two others, it was all a blur. He wasn't able to react fast enough once Spider-Man zipped toward him and landed a clean punch across his face, taking him down too.

"You don't see many heroes fighting crooks in alleys." He spoke to himself and began to run out of the alley. "Probably Daredevil...maybe Luke Cage."

The man still chased after Kate Bishop. The girl didn't even notice him as she was preoccupied with trying to catch the dog.

"You can't run, Ro–"

Spider-Man suddenly landed in front of the Tracksuit member. He gave the hero a surprised look and Y/N simply handed him one end of a web.

"Can you hold this for me?"

He immediately webbed the end of the line to his chest and the tension pulled him up. The man shouted as he hung in the air.

Meanwhile, Kate leaped over a passing car and grabbed the dog before it can be run over at the intersection.

She turned around and looked at Spider-Man for a few seconds before fleeing the scene with the animal.

Y/N watched as she ran away. He also heard police sirens in the distance and knew they were about to show up at the crime scene. Not wanting to add conflict to their task, he shot a web upwards and swung away.

Back in the alley, some of the previously unconscious Tracksuit Draculas were coming to. As they were getting up, Kazi and his crew from the cellar came out and entered the alley.

The leader of the job looked around at the downed men and at the ones who were recovering.

"What happened?" He asked rather calmly.

"It...it was Spider-Man." A man panted. "He must be working with the Ronin."

Kazi gestured at his beaten men. "He did all this?"

All the man did was nod. Kazi glanced at his colleague, Ivan, who didn't say a thing and simply shrugged.

"A man in spandex...beating ten men when he should've been outnumbered. He should be right here...on the ground...dead...along with the Ronin."

There was a beat as Kazi stared at his underling.

"Why aren't they?"

The man stammered. "They...they got one over us, Kazi. They...ran away."

Kazi nodded and let out a chuckle. He suddenly laughed louder and the people around him wondered if they should join the Clown in the guffaw.

Kazi immediately pulled out his pistol and shot the man in the chest four times. He fell to the floor, dead. Ivan and the others kept calm and didn't dare to react.

"Losing to the Ronin...understandable. But to a Halloween costume-wearing fool! No! We don't get paid to endure such humiliation! So next time, do your job and put that man in the ground, or you'll be in it instead."

They didn't respond as the silence was all Kazi needed. Ivan and the others didn't dare to speak as the unhinged man was unpredictable. There was only one person that was able to keep him in check: their boss. And she wasn't here at the moment.

"Now, let's get a move on!" Kazi exclaimed. "We have the watch. We did our job."

The Tracksuits listened to him and the man entered their truck. They quickly drove away from the scene before the police could arrive.

• • •

KATE BISHOP ENTERED her apartment with the dog. She still wore the Ronin costume, which caught a lot of eyes on her way there.

She ended up calling Y/N and telling him to meet her there. The boy acted nervous and panicky, making her think he simply ran out of the venue with the rest of the patrons. He agreed and told her he'd see her there.

"Welcome to my apartment." She spoke to the dog, let it in, and closed the door. "Whoa. Okay, that was, that was crazy. But we're safe. We're safe."

Y/N heard the door close and got up from the seat. He was now in his cheap tuxedo and his eyes widened upon seeing her current attire. It was then he realized she was the ninja in the alley.

"What—What are you wearing?" He asked.

"It's...I don't know." She stammered. "I got it from the black market auction."

"That's what they were conducting in the cellar?" He asked.

Kate arched a brow at his question, wondering how he knew about it so quickly since the incident just happened. Y/N caught himself and tried to save face.

"The...uh...explosion felt like it came from below. So, random guess." He fiddled with his fingers and looked at the dog. "Um...where'd you get this guy?"

Kate brushed his question off and began to speak.

"Look, long story short, I think Armand, that old guy that talked to us, is probably behind the break-in."

The dog began to whine. The two young people noticed and Kate assumed he was hungry.

"You're hungry? You must be hungry." Kate still held the leather case that the suit came in. "Y/N, get him some food from my fridge."

"What do you even have that he'd want?" He replied as he went over to the fridge.

She put the case down. "Just get him something."

Y/N opened the fridge and looked through it. Immediately, he grabbed the first thing he saw. A box of pizza.

"Okay, buddy." He opened up the box and placed it near the dog. "Pizza time."

Kate took out her phone and looked up the address to Armand's place.

"I've gotta find out what's up with Armand." Kate muttered and grabbed the case again. She looked at Y/N. "Can you take care of the dog for me?"

"What? Where are you going?" He asked.

"I gotta see what Armand's up to. I overheard him threatening my mom, and then with what just happened, it all seems weird."

"You're going alone?"

"I got this. Don't worry. Just..." She looked at the dog. "Do not destroy this apartment."

Kate was about to leave, but Y/N called out before he can.

"I can help. I—I can go with you."

Kate looked back at him. Although appreciative of his help, she felt like this was something she needed to do herself.

"This isn't a day at the shelter. This is something very different. I'd prefer if you're here. Safe."

Y/N didn't know what to say. It mirrored his own feelings toward the people close to him. Kate had a similar mentality to his...one of valor and selflessness.

All he did was nod and Kate gave one back. She left the apartment, leaving Y/N and the dog alone.

He looked down at him as he was eating the remaining slice of pizza. Y/N then looked to his right toward the windows. Kate wanted him safe, but he wanted to make sure she was too.

"I think you'll be okay on your own for a bit here, right?" Y/N asked the dog.

The dog looked up and stuck out his tongue. Y/N pet him on the head and chuckled. He started making his way toward the window, unbuttoning his shirt and revealing his Spider-Man costume underneath.

"I'll be right back."
