Spider x reader

    You felt hot tears pour down your face. This was the third time you had called Sasha. Yet to no avail, she hadn’t picked up the phone. You’d think your best friend would answer in your time of need. 

       You scrolled to the next person in your contacts list, Missy. After three rings, Missy had finally picked up. “Hey Y/n.”,she answered cheerfully. “Hey.”,you sighed. “Are you home by chance?”,You asked, attempting to choke back tears. 

    “Uh no I’m out of town right now. I won’t be back till tomorrow”,she said dodgy , like that wasn’t the entire truth. “Are you okay?”,she follows up. “No no everything is okay.”,you lied, trying not to be a bother. 

    “Um enjoy. I’ll talk to you tomorrow”,you sigh before hanging up.

                       <~>~<~>~<~>

  You don’t remember exactly how you got here. All you knew was that you parked your car a few blocks up and ended up outside Spiders Window. You lightly tapped on his window praying that Ant and Dusty weren’t at his house. All you needed was to be even more embarrassed. 

       Spiders light flickered on before he peered his head out his window to see you standing at the window, face soaked in tears, mascara, and rain water. “Shit. Y/n you okay?”,he asks in a concerned tone. “Can I come in?”,you asked in barely a whisper. He eagerly nods before helping you climb through his window. 

    “I’m sorry. I don’t mean to impose, I didn’t know where else to go.”,you said as tears started to roll once again. “You’re not imposing. My mom actually isn’t even here. She’s..uh..out of town“,he says,hesitant yet still glancing at you with that concerned glance on his face. 

    He eyes the darkened expression on your face, “Are they fighting again?”,he asks only glancing at you slightly. You let out a deep sigh, “Yeah. And it’s really bad this time.”, you wipe your face. 

You hated feeling weak. You weren’t a weak punk ass bitch, your words not mine . And you made sure you never cried in front of ANYONE. But when it came to Spencer, for some odd reason all your walls came down. In your eyes nobody knew him like you did. Yea he could be a dick and a narcissistic asshole but it wasn’t completely his fault. And he could be surprisingly sweet when it came down to it. 

   Your parents always fought. It was what you grew up hearing. But recently the fights had been getting worse and worse. They’d been getting more volatile, sometimes even ending in screaming matches that made you flinch at the mere sound of a raised voice in school. 

       “I..I can’t stay there. I really can’t Spencer”,you breathed out. “You don’t have to if you don’t want to Y/n. You know you’re always welcome here”,he walks over to you, caressing your arms before engulfing you into a hug. You pulled him tight as you possibly could. Truth be told, he was your safe space. He was who you went to when you needed a shoulder to lean on when it came to real shit. 

     “Okay your clothes are sopping wet, do you wanna take a shower and I’ll grab you some clean clothes?”,He asks, eyeing the damp sweats that were clung to your body. You just nod up at him with a slight smile. You make your way to his bathroom before getting into the hot shower. This seemed to make all the bad thoughts melt away. It was just you and the water, until you heard the door creek open. 

    “Ok just coming in to drop off your clothes”, Spider walks in, a hand over his eyes to shield his eyes from you. “Um why are you acting like this is something you’ve never seen before?”, You laugh at the site in front of you. 

   “Oi, I’m tryna be respectful ya’know “,he shrugs. “I mean you could always join me”,you give a smirk. Spider eyes you,shocked as if he’s considering it and then it looks as if he snaps out of it. “I will be in my room when you’re done”,he says almost tripping over his words before disappearing from the bathroom entryway . “Am I losin my edge’?”,you asked yourself aloud.   

     You rinse off before stepping out the shower and drying off with the fresh towel he had put out for you. You slip into the seemingly somewhat oversized basketball practice jersey of his and the basketball shorts that felt gigantic. You eyed yourself in the mirror, loving what was looking back at you in the mirror. 

   You make your way into Spiders room, he’s on his video game, as usual. You glance over at him and he’s already staring back at you. “I reckon you look better in my clothes than me,eh?”, he smiles. “I will admit it looks really good on me”,you smile at the mirror placed across from you beside Spencer’s bed. 

   “Well in all fairness you look good in everything you wear”, he says looking up at you from his seat on the edge of the bed. You shove him, “oh shut up”, with a laugh. He gives you a wide grin, and the comfortable silence sets in. Your mind starts to wander back to the scene that had unfolded 2 hours previously. 

      “You wanna talk about it?”, he looks up at you solemnly. You just shake your head no before taking a seat next to him. “Thank you for letting me stay here Spider. Seriously”,you grab his hand. “You know it’s no problem”,He smiles over at you. 

    “I do have one question though”,he says hesitant as if he doesn’t want to ask. “Hmm?”, you turn your attention back to him. “Why’d you come here? Like I know you said you didn’t have anywhere else to go but I can’t help but wonder.”,he asks. 

      “Truth is , I did call Sasha and Missy. But Sasha didn’t answer and Missy is out of town.  But when I sat and thought about it I only wanted to be around you. You are for some crazy reason I can’t understand, the only person who understands me. And sometimes you’re the only person I can stand to be around.”, you let out a deep sigh. 

god the girls were genuinely so beautiful i miss this era
