Boys, Boys, Boys

Now, post Brand new day, Peter feels more like himself than he’s felt in a very long time. 

There's a lot of new things he needs to accept about himself and work on, a lot of new urges and wants, and senses even higher than before. 

The most notable is the extremely high senses, or his ability to produce his own webs. But there’s also smaller things, like Peter feeling comfortable in hidden away crevices, or how he eats a lot more. 

There's also new urges when it comes to you, his partner. Peter’s always been a very physical person, but it reaches new highs. 

You can be standing in the kitchen, warming up a hot pocket, and Peter saddles up behind you and wraps himself around you, arms around your middle and face tucked into your neck. 

It's pretty cute, but it can be a lot sometimes, especially when he doesn’t want to let go. And it’s not like you can push him off unless you have strength equal to his own. 

He gets into a bit of a zone when he gets to cling to you, rubbing his face back and forth, from side to side, nipping at your neck and shoulder, fingers kneading at your torso. 

It's not even anything sensual, it more so comes across as a comfort thing, like Peter is feeling so relaxed and safe with you that all his suppressed urges just come to the surface. 

But well, it does get a bit annoying when Peter gets extra bitey. You can tell it’s not even on purpose sometimes. 

You can be in bed, lying on your stomach and scrolling your phone, when Peter clambers up the bed and pretty much sits on your hips so he can nuzzle and bite at the back of your neck. 

And sure, it’s pretty hot to be held down by a hot hunk like your boyfriend, but jeez, the hickeys and bites he leaves. 

You still think he’s got some kind of venom in those teeth, because those hickeys last way too long sometimes. Peter claims he doesn’t, but you doubt it.  

Its reached a point where wearing high collared shirts and scarves has become part of your daily fashion, even when our dear spidery lover pouts about it, because he preens like a proud peacock when he gets to look at all the marks he left behind. 

He's always been a cuddlebug, but the heightened spider DNA, and everything else, has made him so much worse. At times you think he’s trying to crawl inside your skin. He would if he could, that much is clear. 

Other spidery things that have come to the surface. Had you guys not been paying attention, a lot of it would have been dismissed as just small quirks. 

And well, maybe you notice it more than Peter does. Like for example, Peter has started tapping his fingers and feet, a lot, especially when he’s getting excited, both happy and other kinds of excited. 

If you do any kind of fighting, then Peter’s gotten notable more interested. He's always found you hot, but nowadays you can catch him just watching, eyes wide, pupils blown, fingers twitching and tapping. 

If you find some way to throw him on his back and pin him down, Peter may just cry because “holy fuck you’re so hot, iloveyouiloveyouiloveyou-”. It's cute how needy he gets. 

The amount of gifts kick up a notch, especially if you two have had an argument, or have been apart for longer periods of time. It's anything from a fancy leaf he found swinging through New York, to your favorite to-go drink, or even a pretty bracelet. 

You add how he puffs up all proud and confident, when you wear and enjoy his gifts, to the ‘spidery acts’ list. 

He's always loved any gifts you gave him in the past, but almost dying and whatever changes have been made to his DNA has made Peter more appreciative. 

You swear he sometimes purrs when you bring him things, especially food. 

There are days when Peter is more... Spider than Peter. On these days he won’t speak much, or even cuddle or cling to you. He just tends to hover, his eyes fully black and barely blinking. 

It's kinda like having a cat, the kind that wants to be in your presence but not to acknowledged or touched. Well, until you go and put on some of his clothes or gifts, or both, and you make yourself nice and vulnerable. 

Aka, flopping down on your front, maybe wagging your hips a bit, making yourself very vulnerable-looking, so your spider can feel safe in joining you. 

Cuz yeah, you did read into spiders, it makes sense, you think. A lot of male spiders are killed by their partners, so... well, whatever works. 

His hands always feel, not sticky like glue, but sticky in a different way, as he rubs up and down your back. You don’t need to look to feel how he’s just silently staring. 

He always bites harder when he’s like this. Never enough to leave scars, but he’s made you bleed a few times. Poor Peter always feels horrible, even when you tell him it’s hot. 

When he’s like this, you’ve also figured out he likes a ‘nest’ as you call it. Aka, piling a lot of blankets on the bed, or even making a blanket fort so he can huddle up around you, nuzzling against your neck until the skin gets raw. 

Dating Peter Parker will never be easy, even before you knew he was Spider-man. Before that you just had to deal with a boyfriend who seemed always on edge, lonely and unsure about a lot of things. 

After everything that’s happened, accepting another person’s love would be very hard for Peter. Especially because he’d still have MJ in the back of his mind, in the beginning anyways. 

There's also the fear that you would end up getting hurt because of him, you know? But through determination your part, and the fact that you two kept bumping into each other, something real starts growing. 

It takes a while for Peter to tell you his secret identity. A part of him is terrified about it, because of what happened last time someone knew his secret identity. 

Knowing Peter, you figuring out the truth was an accident. Like Peter swooping in as spider-man and saving you from a villain, and you immediately clock is voice and how he holds you just like your boyfriend. 

And well, after that the can of worms is open. You would be mad about the secret, but also understand, ya know? A part of you also can’t stop giggling at the fact that you’re dating THE spider-man. 

I mean, he’s New Yorks one and only spider-man, how can you not start kicking your feet and giggling like a schoolgirl.  

Insert Peter trying to give you a spider-man kiss and you just start giggling and covering your face because omg that’s spider-man and he wants to kiss you. 

After Brand New day, with everything with Jean, with Frank and Peter almost dying, there’s a new peace over your boyfriend. He's always tried to carry himself with self-assurance and confidence, but it finally feels real. 

And well, you also kinda find his more spidery acts kinda hot. 

You almost lose your brain the first time Peter gets extra predatory. Maybe he’s been in a bit of a mood, and you decide to tease him, only to turn and try to run away to be a little brat about it. 

Only for Peter to snatch you right back with his webs and pin you against his desk, barring his teeth and little out a little hiss. You swear his eyes even flash black for a moment. 

Poor Peter starts apologizing like crazy when he catches himself, only for you to be like “I’ve never been this hard in all my life” cuz holy shit. 

Dating Spider-man means a lot of things, it means date nights swinging through New York, it means lying draped over a couch as Peter works on his suit and tech, it means dates cancelled last minute because Rhino got out again, which always results in Spidey showing up at your apartment full of apologies. 

But it also means being woken up in the middle of the night by the sound of your window sliding open. 

Dating New Yorks hero means you’ve been taught self-defense from both Peter and Frank, cuz that guy cares about Peter like a broody overprotective chicken. So yeah, maybe you freak out a bit. 

Until you wake up enough to realize, oh shit, it’s just Peter. And then it hits you, oh shit, it’s Peter. 

You've been extra anxious since his near-death experience, especially with him only surviving thanks to Jean, so you do start sweating when you see how bloody and beat up he is. 

Had it been any other time, you may have found his ripped up suit pretty hot, but he looks pretty bad. 

Our lovely Peter will know you’re freaking out, and of course try to talk you down again. That he’s fine, mostly fine, and didn’t mean to wake you up. 

The fool might even ask about your day as he’s slumped on your floor, holding his bleeding side, giving you a bloody but goofy grin. 

it takes some maneuvering and the training Frank gave you to drag your spidery hunk to the bathroom, but you get it done, only bumping him into a doorway once. 

The whole time Peter tries to keep the conversation going, acting all casual like he’s not leaving blood stains all over your floor. 

Somehow you get him sitting on your closed toilet so you can wrench the torn up suit off him, at least down to his hips, so you can start patching him up. 

And Peter, well, he’s all spider hormones and hot-blooded man, starts letting out little spidery noises and tapping his foot, like some kind of spidery courting display. 

It's not his fault that he thinks it’s really hot that you can manhandle him, it’s just in his DNA, okay? Plus, he just loves you, a lot, and his brain is kinda scrambled from the pain and fighting. 

You end up kinda having to just shove his face away when Peter tries to get kisses, because you’re trying to stitch his side up damnit. But peter just wants nuzzles and kisses and to bite you a little bit. 

And hey, maybe you can use his spider behavior against him. Give him a quick but hard bite, kinda like a corrective nip, and Peter settles down, for a bit. Expect his eyes to flicker black for a bit though. 

Peter’s a real champ about pain, he has to be with what he does, so he sits still for most of your care, even as he jokes about you using too many bandages, because he’s just gonna heal anyways. 

I do think Peter likes to cuddle after getting hurt, like, burrowing in bed, curled up under a lot of blankets and holding on to you. Even better if you start running your hands through his hair. 

He gets extra cuddly after times like these, especially as the adrenaline wears out, because it always seems to hit him that he could have lost you. Or rather, you could have lost him, and Peter wouldn’t want that to happen. 

Expect a lot of small kisses all over your face and neck, as well as his hands running up and down your back before he nuzzles into your chest. Hell, he might press his ear against it so he can listen to your heart, because why not. 

Honestly, Peter only sleeps good when it’s with you, so even when he’s all banged up, Peter conks out real quick when he’s with you. 

Just watch out, cuz Peter feels like the kinda guy who twitches and jolts in his sleep, as well as mumbling and talking in his sleep. It’s kinda freaky sometimes.
