For the past few days, Peter had been entirely focused on breaking down some of the gang based crime in the area. He'd already taken out a large portion of one, which mostly consisted of bikers and the every so often vampire, and now he was working on figuring out their final few locations so that he could take down the big boss and throw him behind bars where he belonged. It was difficult work though, when there was so much other crime in the city to distract him from the major task at hand. And every time he got closer, something would draw him away long enough for the baddies to move their locations. It seemed like he was being setup most of the time, but there wasn't much he could do about it. If someone was on the verge of getting hurt, he wasn't going to turn his back and continue on just because he was determined to take those guys out. He had obligations.
Not all of them consisted of crime fighting though. There was also his personal life. Especially his time with Mary Jane. After returning from a scuffle downtown, Peter agreed to go out with MJ for a little quality time. It was something that he kind of needed at the moment, what with his frustration situation out on the streets. He deserved a little time away. And so did she. So he set out to meet her downstairs, as promised, and inwardly began to beg every villain in the city to take a break while he did so as well.
As soon as he caught sight of the girl he had spent so many years admiring from afar, Peter gave her a friendly wave and instantly moved forward to greet her.
