The days since she was in the hospital eventually turned to months and MJ was getting better every single day that went by. She still struggled with nightmares and horrible anxiety but Peter was always there to comfort her and she hadn't picked up a blade to harm herself since, even when her seventeenth birthday passed and she was sad that her parents weren't alive to celebrate with them but the fact that Peter and Aunt May were there helped to fill the empty void in her heart.

MJ woke up early one morning and got up to go out to the kitchen where Peter was making them breakfast.

"Hey, wheres May?" She asks as she sat at the table and Peter put a plate of food in front of her.

"Oh she had to go to work early and she's working late today too," he says as he sat down next to her, "oh and happy anniversary." He adds as he kissed her on the cheek and MJ froze. She had a feeling she was forgetting something but she couldn't quite place it. MJ knew she didn't normally care about things like this but this was Peter, the most important person in her life.

"Oh my God, I'm so sorry Peter I totally forgot, and I'm so sorry!" She says as she put her head in her hands.

"Hey it's okay. I'll be honest I didn't remember until last night." He says, making her sigh in relief, "hey let's play hooky today." He adds, making her stare at him like he had two heads.

"But It's a school day, we can't skip. Wouldn't we get into trouble?"

"Only if you're caught but that's why you need to beat them to it before they eat you out." He says as he stood up and went over to the landline, punching the number in for the school and clearing his throat, "hi yes, I was just calling to let you know that my nephew, Peter Parker, and Michelle Jones will not be in school today since they're sick." He explains, faking a woman's voice before going to hang up the phone and MJ laughed.

"Well what do you want to do today since we're "sick"?"

"Get dressed. We're going to go out on the town." He says, making MJ laugh and get up, quickly getting dressed before meeting Peter outside and the two left to go out.

Over the course of the day, MJ and Peter did a bunch of fun stuff, including going to the movies and going to the pier where there was a carnival of some sort going around and Peter won MJ a stuffed elephant and she hoped this day would never end but it was getting late and they knew Aunt May would be worried about them.

MJ and Peter got back to the apartment to see the lights were off and assumed that May wouldn't be home yet.

Peter turned on the lights as they came in to see Aunt May sitting on the couch waiting for them to get back.

She was angry.

She was very angry.
