Ch: 95 [Preparing for the second date]

Ch: 95 [Preparing for the second date]

I'll need two-day max to final check the implant. Well, then, it's time to go on a second date with Michelle, after this, a few more dates. Well, I opened my laptop and began doing some research. Where should I take her next? It's our second date, so... aha... got it, I should take her to a movie theater! Movies always give a nice ambiance for couples to enjoy each other's company and build memories. Nah! That's too generic.

Wait a sec, how about rollercoasters or theme parks, and hey, that's fun and stuff. Girls love it... yeah, but the last time I went to a theme park with Gwen, it didn't turn out well thanks to those terrorists bombing that place. So, yeah, better avoid theme parks for now.

I'm not that good when it comes to dating and deciding a place. May is different. I know what she likes and enjoys. But Michelle, well, she is a mystery that I'll solve. Let's see... Humm... How about Scuba diving? I know it costs money to buy gear and there are some rules, but hey, I ain't lacking money. Might as well try it out.

Anyway, I think I got it. After this, I'll make the bookings and call her later in the evening.

[3rd Person pov]

It's been three days since Michelle went out on a date with Parker and that was probably the best date ever. It's not like anyone asked her on a date ever. He is the first one who did so and she can't help but feel happy thinking about that day. "I wonder if he will ask me out again," She thought. 'When is he going to call me? Where is he going to take me? What is he doing? Should I call him? What if he gets angry?' Thoughts like these ran inside Michelle's head.

At present, Michelle is sitting on the bed with her phone in her hand. She couldn't get Peter's face out of her head and her heart was racing thinking about that day and when they walked hand in hand. She still remembered how good it felt to walk with him and how much she liked him. 'Shit, I need to calm down.' She slapped herself on her cheeks and tried to calm her heart.

"Damn it. What have you done to me, Peter Parker?" She asked no one in particular. She sighed heavily and kept on thinking about what to do next.

She typed Peter's number on the phone, but before she could press the call button, the phone vibrated. It was a call from Peter.

Michelle quickly pressed the answer button. "Hey!" She sounded excited as a happy expression surfaced on her face.

"Did I hear a hint of excitement in your voice?" Peter asked on the other side.

"I just said 'Hey'. I doubt you could tell anything from just that," She argued.

"I dunno, maybe I'm just imagining things."

"Maybe, who knows? So, what's up?" She asked.

"What? I can't just call you because I miss your sweet voice?" Peter said teasingly.

"Shut it, Parker," Michelle rolled her eyes as she lay back on the bed, swinging her legs playfully.

"Hehe..." Peter chuckled, "So, what are you doing?"

"Oh, nothing much, just lazing around."

"That's boring. I'm pretty sure you could do something better than that," Peter pointed out.

"Oh, you got a better idea?" She turned over to the other side of the bed and placed her head on the pillow.

"Yeah. Do you know how to swim?" He asked her.

"Swim? Hahaha... Oh, Parker. You have no idea. I'm pretty sure I can beat you in swimming."

[Peter's POV] [Location: Mall]

I found a place that sells scuba gear and I need new clothes and shoes. It's been a while since I spent some money on myself. Might as well go all out. Well, I could have just rented the gear, but I want a new one for me and for Michelle.

This store is really good. It has everything I need. I bought two entire sets and obviously, the best one they have.

"I want it delivered at this address by tonight, can you do it?" I asked the cashier girl.

"Nah, we need at least 48 hours for that, besides, there are other delivery on the list. So, I wouldn't count on 48 hours," She replied with a tired tone.

"You're not gonna let me try to persuade you?" I took out 200 dollars and placed the bills on the counter.

She glanced at both sides, then quickly pocketed the money, "Sure, I'll make sure they deliver it by tonight."

"Thanks," I smiled and left the store. Alright, I got the gear, now I need new clothes. But man, no matter where you go, money talks and gets your job done.

Yet, some say, money can't buy happiness.

That cashier girl for example. I know her. She lives around the slums and I saved her a couple of times as Spiderman during my patrols. If I'm not mistaken, her name is Sarah. She told me about her situation. Why? Who knows? She talked, and I listened. Her brother goes to elementary school and her parents... Well, let's say, they have no parents. Anyway, she works hard to take care of him. So, that $200 might not be much for me, but for her, it means she can buy her brother some new clothes or a proper dinner after her shift, maybe it will help her a little with the rent. Now, isn't she happy? Even if it's a little bit, but she's happy.

My next stop is the clothing department on the other side of the mall. As I was walking there, my eyes caught a familiar figure, standing near the Women's Clothing Department.

I can recognize that messy brown hair everywhere. That's Michelle.
