I've never been in this position before. Which isn't to say I was invulnerable back home -- far from it -- but I've never been the breakable one, contrary to the popular belief about Peter Parker, klutz extraordinaire. Aunt May used to treat me like I was made from spun glass, sure, but it was never actually warranted, much as she thought it was -- even after she learned the truth.
Now, though, Mary Jane has more of a point than I'd like to admit, and I hold my breath as she settles down next to me, exhaling only once she's stopped moving. She can't hurt me any more than Norman, of course, but I keep that to myself, instead just saying, "Hey."
Peter Parker, also known as the vigilante, Spider-Man, is one of Marvel Comics' flagship characters. Created by Stan Lee and Steve Ditko in 1962, Spider-Man first debuted in Amazing Fantasy #15.
