Chapter 100

I shrugged, "anything babe, I'm all yours today."

"Well," she looked me up and down, "maybe...shopping!"

"Shopping?" I asked.

"Yup! It's about time I buy you something decent Peter!" she hissed, "you have such an amazing body, but you keep wearing those big clunky clothes!"

I looked down, she was right. I have been meaning to spice up Peter's wardrobe for some time now, but I either never had the time or money for that. Huh, guess I do now.

"Okay Kitten, let's go shopping," I smiled.

"Yes!" Felicia smiled.

"After we finish studying," I told her.

"Oh come on, we already know this stuff!" Felicia whined, ", you taught us this weeks ago! We are basically just revising everything right?!"

"Well...I suppose," I hummned.

"That settles it, we're going shopping! Now!" Felicia slammed her books shut and packed th away.

I sighed and turned to MJ, "sorry MJ, but I think we have to call it early today."

MJ nodded, "it's fine Tiger, I get it. Anyway, enjoy your date you two," MJ moved to leave when Felicia stopped her.

"Where do you think you're going Red?" Felicia spoke, "you're coming with us!"

"I am?"

"She is?" I asked surprised.

"Isn't this like, a boyfriend girlfriend date thing?" MJ asked in surprise.

"Yeah, but I need your help, you think he'll just sit there let me try on clothes all day?" Felicia huffed, "Peter is a two woman job, so you're going to help me pick his clothes and then you can leave."

I honestly didn't mind, MJ and I haven't spoken much lately, so I just shrugged my shoulders. MJ looked at Felicia and then at me before nodded, "okay, sounds fun."

We left the cafe almost immediately and got into a cab that dropped us off at a mall a few blocks down. Felicia practically dragged MJ and I inside. Her first stop, buying me underwear.

"Here," she tossed several packages of briefs into our shopping bag, "very important."

I raised an eyebrow looking at them, red, blue, black...pink? "Ah, Kitten, I have plenty of underwear."

"And I am tired of seeing only white!" Felicia glared as MJ blushed.

I looked at MJ and grumbled, "Felicia!"

"What? She'll get used to it," she said waving off MJ's embarrassment, "now, let's see what we can do with you."

It was two hours of what felt like Purgatory. I was dragged from store to store made to try on clothes like an app that let you dress up a barbie doll with a swipe of a button. I felt humiliated, and I almost faked a heart attack to get out of it. Almost.

In the end I did manage to get a few clothes I liked, a leather jacket, a nice pair of pants and even a cool shirt with Tony Stark's arc reactor in the middle, it even glowed!

But MJ and Felicia also got me a lot of other clothes I wouldn't even think of wearing. They made me look like a snobbish douche, like Harry. I managed to curb the girls attention and throw away the really ugly ones, but I still got an entirely new wardrobe filled with pompous looking clothes.

After shopping we decided to go to a restaurant for an early dinner, a restaurant down two blocks down.

"This way," MJ said pointing down an alleyway, "it's a short cut."

Felicia and I shrugged and followed her. I was stuck carrying the bag, though thanks to my spider strength I barely even felt it.

"So Tiger what's your plan for the evening?" Felicia asked.

"Well, I have to be in the Baxter building after dinner, Sue needs to runs some more tests on...on a project she's working on. I'm assisting her," Felicia raised an eyebrow and I waved it off, mouthing, 'later'.

"It's so cool that you work with the FF Tiger," MJ sighed, "it's so cool. Hey, does Johnny Storm really sleep naked?"

I blinked, "no, why would you think that? And more importantly why do you think I would know if he did?"

"Well, wouldn't he like burn his clothes while sleeping?" MJ asked, "so I don't know...it would make sense if he just slept naked."

"Yeah, it would," Felicia nodded, "and what about the Thing? Does he have a junk? Or is it like covered up those rocks?"

"And can like Mr. Fantastic increase the size of any part of his body?" MJ asked.

I blinked, "you know….I don't know...huh, I should ask them."

"Ha, yeah you should," Felicia snorted.

Just then a figure jumped out from behind a dumpster and stood in front of us. He had his hood up and flashed a knife, "cash, now!"

MJ screamed in terror as she jumped back, Felicia went to move but I stopped her, pushing her and MJ behind me. She was good, but she didn't have super powers. I looked at her shock my head, she hesitated before standing down.

"I said cash, now!" the man yelled out.

I looked at him, I could kick his ass without using my powers, I could...but something was wrong. His hands were shaking, nervousness? No...I smelt something else, a lemony scent, I instantly connected with a feeling of dread...fear. He was afraid.

"You don't want to do this," I told him softly.

"Give me all your money kid! Now! And no one gets hurt!"

"Do as he says Peter!" MJ whispered out.

Felicia snarled but I held her back, I looked at the man, "this is the first time you're doing this isn't that right?"

The man stopped, "w-what?"

"People don't mug people in this part of town, to many cops...you're new at this. And you're desperate," I slowly moved towards him, "you don't want to hurt me."

"I-I can't, I don't have a choice!" he yelled, but I see the knife slowly moving down.

"You always have a choice," I told him, "why? Why do you need the cash."

"M-my family," he stammered, "they'll stare."

"Okay….then here," I took out my wallet, it had a hundred dollar note in it. I also took out an old bill and wrote down a number. I gave the man the cash and number, "take the cash, feed your family. The number I wrote down is to a homeless shelter that'll take in anyone. If you can't feed them, take them there. If you do this again, you might get caught next time, and then you'll never be able to help them."
