Capítulo 174: Chapter 174: Moving In
[Third Person's PoV]
The hatch of the VR capsule opened, and out came Bruce, with both his and Hulk's consciousness back in his body.
"So, how was it?" Peter asked, looking at Bruce with amusement.
Bruce just stared at all of them sitting in chairs with a blank expression. "I'm sure you all already saw how it went..."
"Come on, don't be like that. We want to hear your opinion," Peter continued to tease.
"It honestly went better than I expected. It showed me a new perspective on things. Thank you... Truly," Bruce nodded graciously toward Peter.
"Okay, now you're embarrassing me..." Peter muttered, rubbing the back of his neck.
Betty simply stood up and hugged Bruce. "If you ever need someone to talk to, or help processing how you feel, please come to me. I'd be more than happy to lend an ear."
Bruce hugged her back, inhaling her scent. "Thank you."
"Get a room, you two! You've got people watching," Felicia scoffed in fake disgust as she picked up her chair and began leaving the room, with the others following behind her.
Peter then walked alongside Bruce. "I think you saw pretty well how the Hulk is. He's no different than a child. He's your responsibility, Bruce. You'll need to teach him along the way."
"I'll try, but it's easier said than done. It might take years," Bruce muttered wearily.
"Small steps, right?" Peter said confidently.
"I suppose you're right. Right now, I feel like I just took a giant leap with the Hulk."
"Hey, I know this might seem weird and random for me to bring up, but if you need a place to stay and hide out, why don't you stay here?" Peter asked.
"Are you serious?" Bruce asked, looking at Peter strangely.
"I know, I know, it's weird since we literally just met and I'm asking you to suddenly move in. But it beats constantly moving around and always being on the run. Not to mention, it's freeee," Peter nudged him.
"I do like free things..." Bruce muttered before sighing and shaking his head. "I'm sorry, but I can't do free. It feels like I'd be taking advantage of a kid."
"How about paying me back with your brain?"
"Excuse me?"
"You've only seen the tip of the iceberg of the things created here. For example, wanna know what I use to power everything around here? A dual sun core reactor."
Bruce practically snapped his head toward Peter. "WHAT!? You managed to combine the theories of power from the core of a sun and a fusion reactor!? Are you crazy!? If that went wrong, it could have caused—wait, the VR world..." Bruce immediately realized.
"You're using the VR world to experiment before bringing your creations to life. That's really smart—genius, actually. It's the safest place to conduct experiments without any real consequences. Kid, your proposal just became a lot sweeter."
"So what, if I stay here, my rent will be my inventions and theories? You wouldn't steal them, would you?"
"I can sign an NDA about everything I learn from you, if that'll make you feel better."
Bruce stood and turned toward Peter. "I don't think that'll be necessary. You've shown me that you're someone I can trust. You're more than just a kid—you're a man with honor. I trust you completely."
"So, are you staying?"
Bruce rubbed his chin thoughtfully. "You're seriously making this harder than it needs to be... Alright, I'll stay, BUT! Only until I find a secure place for myself."
"No," Peter said, shaking his head.
"Excuse me?"
"That kind of thinking is why you'll end up single. It's not just a place for you anymore; it should be a place for you and Betty. She clearly cares about you. If you truly love her and are planning a future together, you should consult her and ask for her opinion too. Communication between partners is what keeps a relationship alive. So, don't make any major life-changing decisions without her."
Bruce blinked, staring at Peter strangely.
"What?"
"It's a bit disturbing how mature you are about everything."
Peter walked with his hands behind his head. "Well, I kinda have to be. The moment you choose to be a hero, your life isn't your own anymore. I'm responsible for the lives of a lot of people. A single mistake on my part could cause many deaths, so I have to be mature about a few things."
Bruce patted Peter's back sympathetically. 'He's a really good kid...' Bruce thought, and for the first time in a long while, he thought about the future. 'I hope that when I have kids, they turn out like him someday...'
"BETTY! BRUCE DECIDED TO STAY HERE, SO THAT MEANS YOU WILL TOO! IF YOU GUYS ARE GONNA HAVE SEX, MAKE SURE TO CLEAN UP AFTER YOURSELVES!" Peter yelled, cupping his hands over his mouth.
Bruce stood still, staring at Peter. "I take it back. I take it all back," he said, shaking his head in exasperation.
"Hm?" Peter asked, tilting his head in confusion.
"Ha!" Felicia laughed loudly, overhearing what Peter yelled.
As things settled down, Peter and the others realized how late it had gotten. One by one, they began heading home, leaving only MJ, Peter, Bruce, and Betty behind.
Peter then showed Bruce and Betty to their room. "Ah, I'm not sure if you guys wanted one room or two?"
"One is more than enough," Betty said before blushing, realizing how it sounded.
"Oh? Okay~ Like I said, if you guys are going to have sex, there's a washing machine down here so you can wash the sheets."
"Peter, please stop talking," Bruce pleaded.
MJ soon returned, handing Peter two pens. "Here."
"Thanks," Peter said before showing them to Bruce and Betty. "These are for when you want to go out and stay undercover without being noticed."
Peter held the pen to his face, and his appearance changed before returning to normal. Both Bruce and Betty were flabbergasted.
"Where the hell were you when I was running?" Bruce teased as they both took the pens.
"Goodnight, and don't make too much noise," Peter teased. They promptly closed the door in his face, causing him to laugh in amusement.
MJ shook her head in amusement. "Come on, I think you've bothered them long enough."
"Are you sure? I still have a few extra teases left in me," Peter replied, reluctant to stop.
MJ slowed her pace, letting Peter walk ahead before jumping onto his back. "You can use them on me," she whispered close to his ear.
"You naughty, naughty girl..." Peter murmured back, carrying her toward his indoor garage.
After securing a helmet on her head, he started driving her home. MJ stood behind Peter on the motorcycle, her arms resting comfortably on his shoulders.
"So, are you staying over tonight?" MJ asked curiously as they rode along.
"Is that even a question?" Peter smirked, his eyes focused ahead.
When they arrived at her house, MJ took off her helmet and kissed his cheek. "I'll be waiting for you in my room. Be quick..."
"Someone's impatient," Peter teased. He quickly got ready and sneaked over to her room, where he found MJ lounging in her underwear, posing provocatively with her head resting on her hand. She wiggled her fingers at him, beckoning him forward.
Peter's eyes widened as he took in the sight. He tossed off his shirt and climbed into bed with her, grinning from ear to ear.
The two playfully tossed each other around, giggling under the sheets. Their legs tangled together as MJ cradled Peter's face, kissing him repeatedly. She wrapped her arms around his neck, pressing her face against his with a content smile.
"What are you doing?" Peter asked, amused by her affectionate hold.
"Nothing~ I just love you. I think this is what they call a sudden love surge."
"You're so cute and sweet, do you know that?" Peter said, his heart swelling as he basked in her love.
"Or so I've heard," MJ replied, her smile brightening.
She shifted on top of Peter, cupping his face as she kissed him deeply again, reigniting the spark between them.

The next day…
MJ and Peter were entwined together, both trembling as they reached their climax. MJ, on all fours, bit into her pillow to muffle her moans while Peter pressed against her, releasing everything he had.
When they were done, they collapsed onto the bed, panting heavily and gasping for air.
"We didn't get any sleep last night…" MJ muttered, though her satisfied expression said otherwise.
She sighed in mild annoyance. "Why do we always have to do it in my bed? I'm always the one who has to clean up."
Peter chuckled, gently pulling her hair out of her face. "Well, my walls are thinner, we can't do it in the spider cave because, well, you know who is there, and you don't like public play."
He grinned before adding, "I could reinforce my walls, make them soundproof. How about we try it at my place next time?"
"That sounds good. Now let's get ready—you know, school and all..." MJ said, rolling her eyes but smiling.
Before leaving, Peter gave her one more kiss. "Love you. See you in a bit."
After getting ready at his house, Peter joined Aunt May and Uncle Ben for breakfast.
"Please come home for dinner once in a while. It gets lonely without you," Aunt May teased.
"You're right. I'm sorry…" Peter replied apologetically.
But he froze as Uncle Ben switched on the news.
"Tony Stark, owner of Stark Industries, is reported missing after a deal gone wrong during his trip to Afghanistan."
'It's starting!' Peter thought excitedly, though he felt a pang of guilt. 'I know I shouldn't be excited about the trauma he's going to experience, but I just can't help it…'
Both Aunt May and Uncle Ben stared at the news in surprise. Peter discreetly grabbed his phone and texted Aria: **"Buy all of Stark Industries' stocks when they hit rock bottom."**
Once he finished breakfast, Peter hugged Uncle Ben and kissed Aunt May on the cheek as an apology for missing dinners, then rushed out. He picked up MJ on his motorcycle before swinging by to get Gwen. All three arrived at school just as Harry pulled up on his bike, with Lizzy clinging to him from behind.
Felicia soon arrived, glaring at Peter and Harry while flipping them both off. "Thanks for picking me up, guys. I really appreciate the walk," she said sarcastically.
Peter and Harry laughed awkwardly as the group made their way to class.
From afar, a boy with silver hair and striking blue eyes watched them with a small smile.
"I thought you'd ride with Peter," Harry said, scratching the back of his head.
"I had both Gwen and MJ with me. It wasn't my fault… but next time, I'll grab the car," Peter promised, joining his hands together and looking at Felicia apologetically.
Felicia scoffed, ignoring them as she walked ahead. The group laughed and followed after her.
When they sat down in class, the homeroom teacher entered and cleared his throat. "Settle down, class. I have a big announcement to make."
Everyone glanced at the teacher curiously.
"We have a transfer student joining us for a short while. Come on in and introduce yourself."
The door opened, and a boy with silver hair and captivating blue eyes stepped into the room. He wore a leather jacket with a silver chain, his backpack slung over one shoulder.
"Sup. The name's Felix Petterson," he said with a casual nod.
Immediately, many of the girls were taken by him, while some of the boys grew envious.
Felix glanced at Peter and his friends, noticing their lack of reactions. 'Good. It looks like my ability to suppress my presence worked on their Spidey-senses,' he thought with satisfaction.
A smile crept across his face as he overheard Peter mutter, "Hey, Felicia, I think we found your long-lost twin brother."
