Chương 138: Chapter 136
"If we weren't already doing it I would think you're just saying that to get into my pants," she smiled.
"Well...maybe just a little," we laughed as we made our way home. We first stopped at Felicia's place where we changed into our civilian clothes. I always kept a spare set of clothes in her place, for Spider-man emergencies, or in case we over did it the night before and needed a fresh set of clothes for school.
We took a cab back to my place and I knocked on the door. May opened it in seconds, "Peter!"
"Hey aunt May," I smiled as she opened the door and we walked in.
"Oh dear we were so worried! We heard what happened in New York and thought you had some how gotten involved!"
I chuckled, "relax aunt May, I'm fine. Nothing is ever going to happen to me."
"And if it did, they would have to answer to me," Felicia smirked.
We walked in and found Ben waiting for us in the kitchen. He smiled, "see May, I told you he would be fine."
"Oh hush you," May battered his arm playfully, "don't believe him Peter, he was just as scared as I was. Why, more so even! He got it in his head that you would go out there and try and help people in the middle of all that!"
I rubbed my head sheepishly, "yeah, I'm not that brave." Felicia rolled her eyes, clearly doing her best not to laugh.
Just then Cat's phone began to ring she looked at it and sighed, "I'm going to take this."
I nodded, "right," she left leaving us three alone, "I'm sorry I made you worry aunt May, I really am. I just couldn't call, the alien's must have knocked out a cell tower or something."
"It's alright Peter, we're just glad you're safe," Ben wrapped his arms around me and gave me a hug, I winced, my wound was still sore, "are you alright?"
"F-fine, just a little tired is all," I smiled.
"Well, not too tired I hope," May smiled, she looked over my shoulder and smiled, "perfect timeing girls!"
I blinked as I turned around and found MJ, Liz and Felicia there smiling at me. "Hey guys, what are you doing here?"
"What? Did you really think we would forget your birthday?" MJ asked.
"Yeah, he did, he actually forgot as well," Felicia rolled her eyes.
"I can actually believe that," MJ nodded.
Liz walked and suddenly wrapped her arms around me in a hug. I was startled for a second before she whispered, "thanks Pete I...I don't think I would be here if you didn't warn me."
I smiled and slowly hugged her back, "I'm glad you're safe Liz."
"Happy birthday to you," May began to sing as she walked in holding a giant chocolate cake with a single candle light up, "happy birthday to you."
"Happy birthday, happy birthday," the others began as I blushed in embarrassment, "happy birthday to you."
I blew out the candle as they clapped. I smiled as I cut off pieces and feed them to May and then Ben. We all sat down in the dining room and began to much down on cake and the delicious chicken pot pie May had made.
Ben was right in the middle of telling them about the time Peter climbed up a tree and forgot how to get down, "So then, we had to get a ladder and try to bring him down, but I kept crying! He said we would drop him and refused to come down," Ben laughed.
"I so can't imagine Tiger doing that," Felicia chuckled.
"Yeah, he's so good at climbing things and getting down these days," MJ winked. Really subtle there girls.
"Ah, I remember that day," May said with a smile as she came in, "Peter was insistent only a fireman could get him down without dropping him. So Richard went across the street to our neighbour's house, who was a fireman, and borrowed his uniform. It was the most adorable thing I have ever seen! Peter took one look at him and practically jumped into his arms!"
The girls chuckled. "Wait, who's Richard?" Liz asked confused.
Ben and May immediately looked sad, Felicia glared at Liz while MJ looked saddened. But I didn't mind, I just smiled, "Richard's my dad, he died when I was young."
"Oh," Liz blushed in embarrassment, "I'm sorry."
'Don't be, he's a man who experimented on his own child,' I sighed, "it's fine Liz, I don't really remember him, as far as I'm concerned," I held Ben's hand, "my dad's right here."
"Oh Peter," May gushed as she wrapped her hands around me, "such a good boy."
Ben smiled, "thanks Pete...but you know, it's not fair to your dad."
I shrugged, "I don't really think he would mind. You did raise me uncle Ben."
He nodded, "I know, but I mean it's not fair he's not here...giving you a gift. So," he stood up and motioned for us to follow him. We were curious, though by the way May smiled I'm guessing she knew what was going on.
We walked outside and Ben opened the garage door. Inside was a car I had no trouble recognizing. A DeLorean DMC-12, the car from the freaking Back to the Future movies! I looked inside and found it to be heavy customized, instead of the two seater it had four seats, sacrificing leg space up front.
"Woah," MJ gawked, "you got a freaking time machine Tiger!"
"Yeah," I nodded numbly as I slowly recalled from the deepest depths of Peter's memories playing in a car similar to this...no, not similar, exactly the same.
I turned to uncle Ben who smiled, "this was my dad's car," I stated.
He nodded, "yup, I'm surprised you still remember it."
"I..." I looked at the car, the body was beaten up, several dents covered its surface. I remember it breaking down so many times, it was almost comical. I looked inside and sure enough a car service kit peaked out from under the front passenger seat.
