《Moments | Spideychelle Oneshots Collection》What I've Been Looking For

(Song starts at 4:18)
During their free period, Michelle decided to go to the library and look for a good book to read and perhaps borrow. She surprisingly finished her last book at such a short period of time. A few minutes later, Peter walked in as well, looking for a book at the reference section. A few shelves later, he wasn't able to find the book he was looking for. Instead of leaving, he decided to go to the New Acquisition section, where MJ was, skimming through the plots of each book. Both of them picked up a book at opposite sides of the bookshelf and met gazes.
"Hey." said Peter. MJ just nodded. "What'cha lookin' for?" He awkwardly asked.
"A good book. Any suggestions?"
"Uhh.." He couldn't think of a book title with its author right now. So he lingered his gaze on the books and picked one entitled The Knife of Never Letting Go by Patrick Ness. "How about this one?" He held it up to show her.
"Sure, I can read that. Hand it over." They met at the end of the bookshelf and handed the book over. "Thanks." She gave him a slight smile making Peter's heart leap a little bit. "You should read The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas. Y'know, if you're having trouble finding a novel to start reading, that's a good start." She said, walking over to a desk.
"Okay. Thanks." MJ nodded at him, sitting on her desk.
Peter skimmed through the book titles on the shelves and found the book she was talking about. He grabbed it and sat on a table a few meters away from Michelle, so she was still on sight. He opened the book and started reading, but he couldn't focus at all. He looked over at her a few times and she couldn't stop looking back. Whenever they met eyes, they slowly hid their faces behind their books, hiding their reddening faces.

***After school***
Michelle went to the bookstore to buy the whole Chaos Walking trilogy. She read through 50 pages in the first book earlier at school and she loved it. Peter decided to go there as well because he wants to give Aunt May a copy of a book she really loves but her co-worker never bothered to return it after she borrowed it.
The same thing that happened to them earlier at the school library happened again at the bookstore. Both of them were nervous to talk but Peter panicked and muttered a "Hi".
"What're you doing here?" She asked, swiftly picking up all three Chaos Walking books.
"I was trying to find this book for Aunt May." He told her the title and she conveniently found the book on her side of the shelf. "Thanks." He said.
"No problem." The both of them walked over to the cashier.
"Did you wanna, go out sometime? I don't know, watch a movie or something?" He asked while they waited in line.
"Umm... yeah, sure. I mean, tonight's good." She replied, her voice getting smaller and smaller on each word.
"Yeah. I'll pick you up tonight." He said. "Y'know what, all that's on me." Peter continued, pointing at the small stack of books on MJ's hands.
"No, I can pay."
"No, I insist. Take this as a 'thanks' for the book suggestion."
"Well, okay." She smiled a little. Peter grinned.
***At Peter's house***
Peter invited Ned over and asked him for advice.
"Dude, I don't know what I was thinking. It was just like.. the perfect moment and I just had to ask her out. But I don't know how to.. act around her. I'm so awkward around her and I don't know how to form words." Peter said in a very panicked tone.

"Relax, you can do this!" Ned optimistically said, putting on Peter's Spiderman mask.
"I just.. I don't know how to impress her."
"She's full of surprises, Pete. Just be yourself around her and I'm sure it'll work out just fine."
A few hours later, he changed into a white shirt, a black denim jacket and converse black and white shoes. He then drove over to Michelle's house and pressed the doorbell on her doorstep. She answered the door, revealing her in a lilac sunday dress with her hair in a high bun. She wore beige sandals and a light brown shoulder bag.
"Bye mom. I'm just going out with a friend." She said.
"Okay, honey. Have fun!" A voice from the inside replied.
"You already have a license? Damn." said Michelle, getting inside the passenger seat of the car while Peter held open the door.
"Yeah. You haven't?" Peter replied, getting inside the driver's seat.
"Nahh. I prefer public transportation."
Peter and MJ decided to watch The Greatest Showman and bought one large popcorn box for them to share. They often bump their hands whenever they grab popcorn from the bucket during the movie. They now thought that getting one box probably wasn't the best idea. Whenever someone kissed onscreen, the two would awkwardly glance at each other and look back at the screen.
When he drove her back home, he walked her over to the front porch.
"So, did you like it? The movie, I mean." asked Peter.
"I loved it."
"That pretty girl named Anne actually looked like you." He pointed out.
"...You think I'm pretty?"
"Uhh.." He didn't know what to say. A simple 'yes' would suffice and he knew that. The problem is, he couldn't say it at all. MJ chuckled and kissed him on the cheek.
"Thanks for tonight. See you at school?"
"Umm.. Yeah. See.. see ya." Michelle closed the door and Peter still stayed there. Seconds later, he walked back to his car, thrusting his right fist in the air.

A Demon Lord's Reincarnation
Selina’s got a pretty active imagination. When doing math, she pretends that she is a great detective solving a heinous crime! Ordinary tasks, like a trip upstairs, turn into a perilous adventure to raid a dragon’s cave! She believes that life should be full of wonder and magic, and tries to force the world to cope with her conviction! But when Selina wakes up to remember her past life as the Demon Lord, she has to face the fact that real life is messy, and not anything like what she imagined. With ancient powers stirring, family problems, and the hectic life of a teenager, Selina will have to discover more about herself if she is going to survive the trials ahead. With the help of her best friend and a fair share of luck, she might just get through this alive. Maybe. (Updates (hopefully) on Sundays) This story started out as a flipped isekai. Instead of a hero being pulled into a medieval world, a Demon Lord is pulled into the modern world. It has since moved a bit beyond that initial premise but it is the foundation of the work. Along the way, I threw in dragons, elves, dwarves, and some vampires (but no werewolves, gotta nip that in the bud) all wrapped up in the political drama of a modern world. The story, however, will mainly focus on the characters and their development and as such, is a bit of a slow burn. It may take a couple of chapters to get into. You have been warned! (PS, please show patience for the author's notes. They're a bit crazy and don't always make the most sense. The author's a bit of a ditz. Please ignore him.)

The Skies of Aurora (To be rewritten in the future)
The Skies of Aurora A world full of thousands of islands spread throughout an endless sky with no ground to be seen beneath them. Here we find Shawn Blake, who lives a quiet life near a dungeon on the Isle of Fallen Snow. Very few people ever visit the Isle of Fallen Snow because there is only one dungeon that has a connection to the island in all of the endless Skies of Aurora. Thanks to that, Shawn has been able to live peacefully on the island with nothing but his training to worry about, despite being a hybrid of more than one of the five ruling races. However, unfortunately for Shawn, his peaceful life is about to come to an end as some visitors make their way to the Isle of Fallen Snow for reasons unknown. The world of Aurora is a world of endless skies full of floating islands separated by open air with the void far below them, and the only way to get from one island to another is through portals that are located at the end of each dungeon. These portals are connected to the central portal on another island. This book is a litrpg, fantasy, and sky world all in one. I hope you enjoy my book, and I welcome any and all suggestions.
