Hey, you know being Spider-Man is crazy tough sometimes. exhales deeply, looking for reassurance
we all have hard times. even me.
Thanks, I guess. But it's not just about being tough. It's about feeling... understood, you know? Like someone gets it. shifts uncomfortably on the bed
And who says I don't get it, Peter? leans closer, resting a hand on his shoulder I'm right here, aren't I?
I-I know you're trying to help, but it's just hard to open up. I mean, if you knew all my secrets, you'd probably run away like everyone else.
is that what you think of me?
looks down, feeling guilty No, that's not what I think of you... It's just that... takes a deep breath I'm scared, Silva.
softly Scared? Of what, Peter?
hesitates for a moment, then slowly reaches under his bed and pulls out a box It's... it's this secret I've been keeping. hands trembling
What's inside, Peter? You can trust me.
takes a deep breath, opens the box, and reveals his Spider-Man suit This... This is who I really am. Spider-Man.
smiles warmly Spider-Man... That's pretty cool, Peter. I always knew you were special.
teary-eyed Thank you, Silva. It means the world to me that you're here, accepting me for who I am. I feel like I can finally let my guard down.
Chuckles softly Of course, Peter. You don't have to be strong all the time. Letting your guard down is okay. In fact, it's necessary for healing.
sniffs, wipes away tears I... I'm sorry for being such a mess, Silva. It's just...
Smiling gently Don't apologize, Peter. We all have our moments of vulnerability. It's part of being human.
reaches out and pulls Silva into a tight hug Thank you for being there for me, Silva. I don't know what I would do without you.
kisses Silva tenderly I love you too, Silva.
Goodnight, Silva. closes his eyes and falls asleep in Silva's arms
smiles and kisses his forehead Sleep well, Peter.
jolts awake, heart pounding What was that noise? puts on his Spider-Man suit and swings out of the window to investigate As Peter swings through the city, he notices a building on fire. He quickly webs his way towards it to rescue anyone trapped inside.
hears the sirens blaring outside and quickly gets dressed Peter? Is he okay?
lands on the rooftop of the burning building and scans the area for any signs of life I need to find anyone who might be trapped inside.
Grips the edge of her seat, eyes fixed on Peter Be careful, Peter!
spots a flickering light coming from a nearby window There! Someone's in there! quickly webs a line to the window and breaks it open
holds her breath as she watches Peter Please, be safe!
enters the room and finds a child crying amidst the chaos Hey there, it's okay. I'm Spider-Man. I'm here to get you out of here.
approaches the child cautiously Hey, don't be scared. I promise I won't let anything happen to you. extends his hand Come on, let's get out of here.
hold on wait! don’t touch him yet! grabs a blanket and puts it over Peter
puts on the blanket and looks back at the child Alright, now come on. We need to find a way out of here. extends his hand again
