Telle Pt.2 (Peter Parker x female!reader)

Part 1! Part 3! Part 4! Part 5!

Masterlist

Word Count/ Warnings: 2k+, swearing, injuries, a fight scene, and Peter Parker being adorable.

Summary: Peter figured out that you’re in love with him. Some guys mess up your whole day at school.

A/N: Oh ho ho! Another one! I’m so excited for your guys’ reaction. I’m sosososososos sorry about this being way late. Also holy shit you guys! Part one got so many notes and I was so surprised, knowing that this is my second fic I’ve ever written! You guys are amazing! I love you guys and hope you enjoy!

⚠️DISCLAIMER⚠️: If you want to be added to the taglist please please PLEASE send me an ask or a message! I will most likely not see it if you just comment! Thank you and good night.

*********

What the fuck did Y/N just say Peter thought to himself. No way. No way, no way, no way.

Peter was on the other side of your building trying to finally catch his breath after that situation when he heard:

“God, I fucking love that boy.”.

It can’t be you who said that. No. He knew that voice. It was definitely Y/N. It couldn’t have been him who she was talking about. But who else would it be? There it was. That swelling feeling in Peter’s heart and everywhere else. He felt like he wanted to do a backflip but also throw up. He knew your secret. You liked him, of course he liked you too, but you loved him. Wait hold on, back it up. Y/N said she loved me Peter thought to himself. Again, his heart swelled. He almost lost his grip and fell into the alleyway below at this realization.

Peter heard your window slam shut and he knew that was the time to actually leave.

Oh boy does he have a story for Ned, and oh boy is he going to have a sleepless night.

*********

You woke up from your almost sleepless night bright and early. You turned in your bed to face your ceiling. Your light was off but you could still see the white roof glaring at you. You slowly sit up, rubbing the sleep out of your eyes and situate yourself. You teleport with little to no thinking to your dresser. This was not a thing that, immediately after you had gotten your powers you knew how to do. Oh no. Not at all.

You started off not even knowing that you had teleportation powers. You were practicing your telekinesis powers one day and got so frustrated that you randomly teleported three times in a row, just pushing you forward a couple feet. This, of course, was a dizzying event which you threw up a little in your mouth after. After you were done steadying yourself and drinking water to try and calm your churning stomach you realized, holy shit I can teleport. After that you had been trying to practice your telekinesis, along with teaching yourself how to teleport. This was not an easy feat, but somehow, you persevered. You did once, break a lamp and cut yourself, but that wasn’t the big picture. You pull your clothes out with a couple flicks of the wrist, using your telekinesis. You slid on your clothes for today and stared at your closet for a moment. You threw open the doors and grabbed the neatly folded set of black and white clothes. You stared at the silky fabric and decided what you were doing next.

*********

“Ned! NED!” Peter shouted at Ned with all the panic spewing out.

“What, what! Peter you can’t do this to me, you texted me at like one a.m. saying, and I QUOTE, ‘NED. 911. EMERGENCY. MEET ME OUTSIDE OF SCHOOL HALF AN HOUR EARLY.’. And then you wouldn’t explain to me what happened. So why in the name of god Peter, am I here.” Ned says, surprisingly only the slightest trace of annoyance in his voice, he was just mainly excited for Peter to say whatever he was going to say next.

“Okay okay,” Peter says, panting from basically running all the way here, ”Y/N loves me”

“What.” Ned says in the most dead pan voice.

Peter takes a deep breath and slows down, “Y/N loves me.”

“What. No way. You have to be shitting me. After all this time she said it to you? Like to your face, like she said it to your face?” Ned says with the most shocked face, repeating that last part.

“No she didn’t say it to my face, I heard her say it when I was on the side of her building and she didn’t close her window.... when she said that.” Peter said starting to lead Ned over to the school, since they still had to go to their lockers.

“How does that even work?” Ned was just so confused about this whole situation.

“I stuck onto the wall next to her window to catch a breath and she just said that.” Peter said opening a door into the corridor that had his and Ned’s lockers in it.

“Wait, you can stick onto things?” Ned says, amazed.

“Yes Ned, that’s how you figured out I was Spider-Man, I was on the ceiling.” Peter recites, whisper-yelling.

“Oh yeah.” Ned remembers.

****

You shove your suit into your backpack just in case. You need a place to store it away from your family anyways.

This is no normal suit however, this is your super suit that you have been working on since— well since about a month ago. It was a extremely cheap version of Peter’s Spider-Man suit. He had let you see it when you asked him and you studied what it was made of. The closest thing that could come nowhere close to his suit was spandex.

It was a one piece black and white suit that came down to your ankles in spandex. It wasn’t the most comfortable but it worked. It also wasn’t the most flattering, but again, it worked. You had sewed it to look like a black ‘T’ that flows into your black pants. The sleeves and every area that wasn’t the pants or the ‘T’ was white. You paired it things that looked like go-go boots but without the heel. They were white with a black diamond shape that stretched all the way from the top of the boot to the beginning of your foot. All that went along with a eye mask thing like they have in ‘The Incredibles’. You had used your powers to form it to your face magically. Now it doesn’t fall off.

You shoved all of this in your backpack and it magically fit. With all of your other things already packed, you left your apartment and made your way to Midtown High, thirty minutes early.

You left this early so you could stop at your favorite cafe to have a short break in the sweet smelling place. There, you could rest your brain and have a cup of cocoa. Or coffee. Whichever you were feeling that day.

You took a little bit longer than expected getting to the cafe, probably because you were daydreaming about Peter Parker, but nonetheless, you were getting a to go cup.

You walked over to Midtown and were greeted with the sight of Peter Parker and Ned Leeds walking into the doors as you walked on campus. You prepared to avoid them while you unloaded a few books, trying not to show your suit in the bottom of your backpack.

You pushed open the school doors leading to your locker. It just so happens that you locker was only separated by a column of bricks, so you hoped to dear god that he wasn’t there or doesn’t notice you.

Strike one, Peter is at his locker with Ned. Hopefully Ned was going to distract him. You kept your head down and opened your locker and quickly shoved a couple notebooks in and your backpack, almost dropping your eye mask on the floor. You slammed your locker shut and kept your other items in your hands. You had planned after school to put your suit under the lockers with your powers after learning in your free time that there was an empty space underneath them.

You walked over to Ned and Peter with a growing smile on your face.

“Hi Pete, Hi Ned!” You say smiling at them, no trace of you having a secret in your locker left on your face.

You clearly had startled them. Or at least just Peter.

“Oh he-hey Y/N!” Peter says with his I’m-not-hiding-something face.

“What’s up?” You say, not pointing out the fact that you can tell that he’s hiding something.

Then you three start talking about the little things before the first bell rings and you all depart away from each other to go to the first couple periods you didn’t have with either of them.

Then you got to third period, which was AP Chemistry. You had this class with all of the crew including MJ. In this class you just so happened to be lab partners with him. He had been the best lab partner you ever had, because he actually worked and helped you if you needed any. You, for some reason, were just not getting what was going on that day and Peter explained it perfectly so you got everything that was going on and maybe a bit more. He was constantly checking if you were getting everything, making sure that you felt comfortable. He was just all around adorable with those brown puppy eyes.

After all that cuteness, you left to go to fourth period. Everything was fine until halfway through the period. You had gone to the bathroom and were making your way back to the classroom when you heard the intercom come on and say,

“Lockdown, lockdown. This is not a drill. There is are intruders on campus with firearms. Lockdown, lockdown. This is not a drill.”

That was strange they usually don’t say what was the cause but then again it was probably someone from the office saying it.

You see a girl run into her classroom and slam the door. You stood there frozen thinking what to do. Well it’s now or never, you think, starting to run to your locker which was just down the hall. You look around seeing all the windows into the classrooms are closed up. You throw your hands at your locker opening it as fast as you can. You rip out your backpack and throw out the couple of books that were on top of your suit. You tear your suit out of the bottom of your backpack. You find a corner out of the way of eyesight and cameras and throw off your shirt and jeans. You then try to put on your suit and eyemask on as fast as you can, almost pulling a muscle in the process. You then run back to your locker, grab your backpack, and throw your clothes in it while slamming your locker shut. You throw your backpack in a place that can’t be seen and run to where you hear footsteps and quiet chatter.

You stop at the corner before the people and peek around. They are heading the opposite way of you and have a lot of guns and weapons. Your heart speeds up tenfold and you take a deep breath. Then you notice a certain Spiderling on the ceiling above you.

“Pet- shit.” You say under your breath, honestly thankful that he’s here because you have no idea what you are doing.

“Hey! Spiderling!” You whisper yell to him. Shit, you think, I’m the only one that calls him in hat he’s gonna know who I am... Oh well. He’s going to see my face anyways.

He looks down and visibly almost falls off the ceiling. Squinting at you and then his spider eyes widen to almost their full shape.

“Y-Y/N?” Peter whispers, slowly dropping himself to the floor.

“Okay look there’s a thing called a secret identity, you would be one to know about it.” You say, putting your hands on your hips.

“Oh sorry!” He says putting a hand on his suited neck, “well we don’t have much time, I’m not going to ask what you can do except, can you tread lightly and can you hold them down?”

“Treading lightly and holding people are my specialty actually,” You say preparing yourself for the thing that was about to happen, “why are you putting this on me? I’ve never done this before? You’re gonna help right?”

“Okay I haven’t really done the whole ‘I’m going to help another superhero’ thing either, and no I’m not going to leave you, you hold them down and I’ll web them for the police,” Peter replies

“Okay, okay, okay,” you say taking some deep breaths.

“You got this, just distract them for a bit and then if they shoot... improv, I guess?” He says.

You take a deep breath. Here we go.

You silently teleport over about ten feet behind the gang of ruffians with guns.

“Hello boys!” You say putting yourself into your best ‘I’m a showgirl’ pose, also noticing you are sounding a bit like Harley Quinn, “whatcha doin’?”

The group jumps around, shaken by what’s just happened. Surprisingly, not trying to shoot at you.

“You’re not here to hurt anyone are you? Just here because you went to the wrong place? You guys look dumb enough to go to a school instead of a bank.” You say playfully. You notice Peter crawling on the ceiling out of sight ready to strike at the right moment. You notice, and feel, your hands and eyes radiating with a purplish color glow, as your powers start to flow through your veins. The purple acting like smoke, flowing up, and dissipating into the air.

Then in the next milisecond, the man who was front most, pulled his trigger. You reacted quick enough to stop it with your telekinesis mid-air. You let go and watched the bullet drop and bounce on the ground.

“Oh honey, you should not have done that.” You say, ending the sentence with a deeper and sharper tone.

You grab his gun with your telekinesis and throw it behind you.

****

Holy shit that was hot, Peter thinks. He watches as you teleport two feet in front of the group and kick the first guy straight in the face with all the might you have.

Oh my god. Peter stares at The upside down world that was you kicking this gang’s ass.

He loved it so much. He loved you so much.

****

Oh my god ow. I need to work out more, you think kicking the next man in the crotch, sending him onto the floor in immense pain. You just had to get them all on the floor at once, hold them down with your telekinesis, and get Peter to web them to the floor.

You punched another in the face and kicked him I’m the chest, sending him stumbling backwards, tripping on another one of the thugs. You had put three on the floor so far and were getting the last one. You decided to make a fool of him a bit.

You kicked him in the gut, knocking the wind out of him, and forcing him to stumble backwards. You teleported to the side and behind him as he stumbled back, and you tripped him. He fell on the guy that you kicked in the crotch, and as he was falling he elbowed crotch guy in the crotch a second time.

“Nope, nope, nope, nope, nope,” you say as the second guy you beat up tried to get up.

You use your telekinesis to hold all of them down at the same time.

“P-peter?” You say as you struggle a bit to keep them down as you haven’t held people in your powers, or this amount of stuff.

****

“O-oh sorry,” Peter says snapping out of his trance that was focused on you. He just couldn’t understand how you had kept this side that was so.... badass. You hadn’t ever fought anyone, let alone a gang of thugs... and ones with guns! You were beautiful. Even through the sweating (and subtle swearing), grunting, and kicking other men in the balls, he thought you were utterly beautiful. More gorgeous than ever before. His crush on you just got twenty times bigger. And you had powers! Why did you keep them from him. Oh well Peter had to web some bad guys.

****

Still struggling to keep the thugs under your grasp, Peter sets himself on the linoleum floor. He walks over to you, his normal kinda confident walk, but sped up. I must’ve looked so stupid and ugly while fighting them. I mean, I’m sweating. That’s not attractive... I think. Peter, oh my god can you not always look so hot.

“I can web through that right?” Peter points at the purple glow radiating off of the pool of bad guys on the floor. He pulls off his mask trying to get a better look at the glow. Oh my god, his mask hair is the best.

“Y-yeah it’s just like a mist, but no-not liquid,” you stutter out. Still struggling. Oh my god hurry up.

Peter drops his mask and webs all of the criminals’ hands, feet, and mouths. The struggle getting lighter as you let go of each ruffian as he webs them.As he webs the last one you physically collapse to the floor and just lay there a second before sitting up.

Peter laughs, “You okay?”

“Yeah, I’ve just never done anything like that before. I mean like I’ve never fought anyone or had to use that much of my powers before,” you say, feeling the glow drain out of your eyes and hands and recede back into your body. You take a extremely deep breath and let it out slowly. You get up and turn your body, fully facing Peter. You let the huge smile you were holding back flow freely out. Peter returns it fully, along with pink crawling up his neck and onto his face. Your smile recedes as you notice a sharp pain in your side, as Peter beats you looking at what exactly it was.

“Oh my god! Y/N!” He says as he runs over to you, “A bullet must have grazed you. We need to get you to Tony.”

“Ow! Shit!” You say as you realize what Peter just said, “Wait hold on, Tony as in Tony Stark?!”

“Yes he can help you with out is having to go to the hospital.” He says, slightly panicking.

“Why can’t we go to the hospital. It seems perfectly safe there,” You say watching the blood start to pour out of your side, you trying to stifle it with your hands.

“They ask questions there and we can’t deal with that if we’re superheroes,” Peter says calmly, “Can I pick you up?”

“Yes, but why can’t I just teleport both of us?” You question.

“Because my guess is that would make you bleed more, and you could be seen,” Peter says, taking you into his arm as and noting that you didn’t even protest to him picking you up, “Hold on love.” Crap why did I say love, he thinks, oh well she’s not protesting.

You both swing off towards Tony’s lab as the police arrive impossibly late.

Under the Stars (Jonerys FanFic)

Story Title: Under the Stars

Summary: Modern AU, a camping trip in Colorado ends up being more than originally planned. Story will have 4 Chapters.

Chapter 1: Packing ~ Day One

Rating: Mature

++++o++++

Chapter title: Packing ~ Day One

*Jon POV*

"Sam, No! No way are we making the same mistake again...all of our crap isn't going to fit into my truck!" I huff, while rummaging through the garage of the house we rent. Where the hell is my hiking backpack?

Sam and I have been roommates since freshman year, and now here we are...five years later and I'm finishing my last year of graduate school. Sam sighs at me. "Come on, Jon! If we can fit all our stuff into your truck, then we won't have to take another car. I'll pay for gas."

"The definition of insanity is doing the same thing again and again...and expecting a different result. Take your insanity somewhere else," I laugh, while waving my arms in the air. "There is no way that all of my camping gear, and Gilly's gear, and then your gear will fit in my SUV. We tried it last summer remember?! How do you forget loading the car, only to have to unload it and start over? You keep forgetting...one of us will need to sit in the back seat and wear a seatbelt."

Sam's face falls, "Oh, yeah... I guess Gilly will need an actual seat. This sucks. I just feel bad you have to drive alone, man."

Frowning, I shrug my shoulders, dismissing his concerns. I know Sam is just trying to be nice, he always worries about others before himself even. I sigh with relief, finding my backpack under some fishing gear. Whew!

Sam just doesn’t understand, I'm fine with being alone. I'm use to it even. Growing up I always felt like an outsider in my own home.

Besides I'm better than fine. I'm so much better after breaking up with Ygritte a month and a half ago.

A couple of months before that, my girlfriend of a year started dropping hints about marriage.

Soon those hints became conversations about marriage.

After that, conversations became debates.

A little later, the debates became demands for an engagement ring, even telling me her ring size and diamond cut preference of princess.

All of this while I was telling her...I was nowhere near ready to get married. I even told her that I wasn't sure if I would ever want to get married. Ever. Family life is not something that appeals to me. Didn't faze her one bit.

I never misled her. I was honest with her from day one of dating. Ygritte was the one that tried to change the rules.

Then one day she was honest with me.

She was so distressed about my lack of commitment, that there had been an "accident".

I guess falling into bed naked with your high school sweetheart and having sex all weekend long could be considered an accident.

An accident to me is more like spilling your coffee, or dropping your cell phone in the toilet. But what the hell do I know?

I shake my head remembering our last fight...our last anything. Ygritte had just returned from a long weekend in her hometown of Colorado Springs.

The Springs is a little less than a two hour drive from Boulder, where we are both graduate students at University of Colorado. Different departments, thank God. I hope to never see her this coming semester; Ygritte studying in the Leeds School of Business, me in the Integrative Physiology department.

She came straight over to our house and basically told my roommates to leave their home since we needed privacy to talk.

Who does that?

The request was so outrageous and Ygritte is so loud and demanding, that Sam and Jamie decided to hightail it out of there. Sam later telling me that they spent an hour at the bar speculating what her latest problem was. The two front runners were pregnancy or a brain tumor, joking that both would explain her erratic behavior.

Thankfully it was neither.

Ygritte actually thought that confessing about her weekend tryst would motivate me to move forward and 'finally' propose. I asked her if she was high or just insane.

We were over right then and there. The best part? She was mad at me! She literally just had another dude on top of her less than 10 hours earlier...but somehow I was the bad guy. I don’t know why I was surprised, sex was something she didn’t see as a big deal. She always made it clear that she didn’t think sex and feelings had to be intertwined. That is probably why she thought I would just get over her screwing some other guy. Verses I’ve always been really careful about who I was intimate with, never interested in one night stands.

Good riddance.

"Thinking about Ygritte?" Sam chuckles.

"How can you tell?"

Sam starts laughing deeply, "Whenever you think about the breakup you get this goofy smile on your face. Like you just won the damn lottery."

I just laugh and remind him I did.

Out of the corner of my eye I see Sam's watching me closely, deep in thought.

"What?" I finally ask.

"What about that girl you have been crushing on for almost a year?" Sam asks, clearing his throat. "You should ask her out."

Rolling my eyes I shake my head to say no.

"Why not, Jon?" Sam pushes. "She isn't your student anymore! Plus, you are a Teaching Assistant. It's not like you were her actual professor."

"Sam...seriously. Just stop. There are so many reasons why that's not going to happen," I snap, continuing to pack. I hate packing for a camping trip. Loathe it, even. The sooner I'm packed up, the sooner I can get to bed. We're heading out really early tomorrow.

"Go on, list your reasons," Sam urges. "I'd love to hear this. Because you and I both know the truth. You may have been dating Ygritte, but you always had that student in the back of your mind. Your constant brooding was proof you were never happy with Ygritte."

"First off, I’d been brooding long before I even met Ygritte. But fine - here goes! One: she was a student in my class and I just don't go there. Those girls are like vultures, I can't even imagine dating one. No way...not gonna happen."

Sam chuckles remembering the one student that sent me her silk thong through intercampus mail with an invitation to her apartment that night. Sending it to my office... that five graduate assistants share. Opening that gem in front of my peers was a moment I'll never forget. Right up there with turning her down and then having to see her in class three times a week that semester.

Once Sam is done laughing he resumes his pitch, "Life is short my friend. And she will be a senior next year, right?"

"Yeah," I mumble.

"So your teaching assignment next year, it's the lower level Integrative Physiology classes. Unless she failed one of them and needs to repeat it, you won't be her teacher ever again. What's the issue?" Sam continues.

"Of course she didn't fail, she's wicked smart. She got an A in all my classes last year. But...reason two: she's got a boyfriend." I say gruffly while Sam shrugs motioning for me to continue.

"Finally the most important reason, she wasn't into me...like at all," I say. "She was polite and respectful, but never once flirted with me. I had a few students with crushes, some were very sweet and some were incredibly aggressive. It was just obvious I wasn't even on her radar. She’s out of my league."

Sam frowns while raising his hands in defeat. Good, I don't want to talk about this anymore.

Sam moves his truck back to the front of the house. It's a two seater, impossible for three of us to ride comfortably in the cabin. Especially for a two hour drive to the Rocky Mountain National Park.

I do a final check of all the gear and supplies I'll need for this big Fourth of July holiday weekend camping trip. I rub my hands together preparing to fit it all into my SUV.

I can admit I am a little OCD...I like things to be a certain way, when possible. Or maybe my stepmother just successfully harped it into me after all those years under her thumb. All the years she treated me like less, while making me the family errand boy.

That is another time I won the damn lottery: when I successfully cut all financial ties with my stepmother. Now that I am no longer dependent on my parents for anything, she is actually much better with me.

I worked my ass off during my undergrad years at CU, and it paid off after a while. Through my relationships with faculty and my academic record, I was offered a teaching graduate assistant position that paid for all of my master's degree and even a stipend for housing and cost of living. The best part is I enjoy teaching, I care about the students.

I push thoughts of my childhood out of my mind now.

That is the past, I have moved forward.

++o++

An hour later we're still packing the cars while enjoying pizza and beer. Jamie, who is Sam's friend from high school, just got home from work and still needs to get organized before packing his girlfriend's SUV with their stuff. I'm looking forward to this weekend with my friends. I'll enjoy camping once I'm there, but it is such a pain in the ass to get ready and then set up. But it's worth it.

I cringe remembering that it'll be me alone with three other couples. How fun. At least I'll have my own tent. Ygritte and I were together when we planned this weekend many months ago.

Actually, my friends are pretty awesome. I'd rather be the single, odd man out, then there with the wrong girl on my arm.

We have an awesome group for this weekend's adventure. Sam's longtime girlfriend is Gilly, who is like a sister to me. Jaime’s brother, Tyrion, is also coming. Tyrion has a new girlfriend named Shae that will be joining us for the first time. She seems really cool, much better than the last string of girls Tyrion dated. And then Jamie has been dating Brienne for a little under a year. I don't know her that well, but she seems like a cool girl. She is tough as shit, and takes no crap from Jamie.

Sam, Gilly and I graduated with our bachelor's degrees a year ago. Sam is now working on his thesis in psychology while Gilly was beyond done with further education and has been working at a startup company in town. All the others will be starting their senior year this fall.

Sam is a rock star, so organized. He reserved our car-camping sites months ago, the moment the RMNP website opened for summer reservations. He showed me on the online campsite map; we have four different lots that are close, but not too close. Our lots share a large fire pit. The best part is that our pod of lots is the furthest one out, backing up to natural space. Sam outdid himself this time.

As I'm loading my SUV, Sam eyes the gear I laid out on the garage floor. "Jon, how big is the tent you are packing? The six-person one...for only you? I can let you borrow my two-person one."

I'd be miserable in a small tent, plus I need room for my husky, Ghost.

"No, I like my big tent, but thank you." I say firmly.

"Well I guess you aren't taking Ygritte's sleeping bag then? I'm shocked she didn't take it with her." Sam jokes while eying the spare bag.

Ygritte was so pissed when we broke up...that she even packed up some of the snacks she bought from our kitchen. Jamie is still convinced she swiped his full box of Lucky Charms.

"Ha! She probably forgot all about 'her' sleeping bag, or I'm sure she would have taken it. Besides, I paid for it as part of my camping collection. It's not like I bought it as a gift." I say while tossing the spare sleeping bag into the back of the garage. I'll put it away when I get back.

"I'm sorry you are stuck with only couples this weekend," Sam says. "But to be honest, I'm glad you cut Ygritte loose. She wasn’t the nicest person, often rude," he ends in a mumble. Nodding, I have nothing to add. Sam hardly speaks ill of anyone, so I know how strongly he must feel.

"Well, she's gone now, it's completely over. I heard she started dating that guy the next week," I say. "Honestly, I'm happy for her. I don't have any hard feelings. I just hope that he can meet all her expectations in life. Princess-cut diamond and all!" I snicker, as Sam spits out his water.

"Part of me feels like I should be worried about you, your woman stepping out on you and all. I then remember you never considered Ygritte as the real thing. Did you ever tell her you loved her? Did you ever love her?"

"Nope. I did care for her of course, I guess at one point I thought it was love," I frown at the memory. "I just realized that she wasn’t that person that made me really feel, I have to believe that exists out there!" I finish then losing myself in my own thoughts.

"Come on, enough about Ygritte," I say. The Ygritte topic is draining. "Let's finish this up. I can't believe Jamie hasn't even started loading their car yet. Let's offer to help."

Sam nods as we enter the house to check on him.

As I trudge towards Jamie's room I think about her warm smile and bright eyes. She's beautiful, but it's not about that. The University of Colorado has tons of beautiful girls. There's something about this girl that has captivated me from the moment I met her. She's direct, yet kind, smart, and when she looks at me...it is as though she is staring right into my soul.

Her name is Daenerys, but all her friends call her Dany.

++o+ Chapter End +o++

Read Chapter 2 (here)

Author's Note:

My concept was originally written as a Divergent story, but I see so many similarities between Jon and Four that I decided to redo this story and make it work for JONERYS. Thank you for reading!

Agilenano - News: Did you know that the aluminum can your soda comes in can be recycled over and over? Recycling cans doesn’t just save resources, it uses less energy than creating a new can from virgin resources.

But before you pop those cans in the recycling, are you ready for a reuse project? We’ve assembled a list of projects — from easy and practical to challenging and downright adventurous — that reuse your aluminum cans. Before you get started, note that aluminum is sharp and can cut you, so please exercise caution. These projects are not intended for children. And please recycle any aluminum scraps from your projects! 1. Light Redecorating Image: Make Community If you’re looking for a unique piece of décor, check out this pop-top lampshade from Sean in the Make Community. All you’ll need for this project is soda can tabs, a few basic tools, and lampshade top and bottom hoops. So, once you’ve snagged the tabs, please recycle the cans. With a little bit of effort and a lot of patience and time, you’ll end up with a distinctly stylish “chain mail” lampshade. What you’ll need: soda can tabs (100 or more), pliers, flat blade screwdriver, needle nose pliers, side cutters, top and bottom lampshade hoops 2. Take It to the Bank Literally put your can back into your wallet. Instructables explains how to create an RFID-proof soda can wallet out of two cans and some packing tape. Don’t forget to wash the sticky residue off your cans and watch out for sharp edges. What you’ll need: aluminum cans (2), hobby knife/scissors, packing tape/duct tape, felt-tip pen, sandpaper While a wallet chain may not be your style, we thought it was a super-easy and creative idea using soda can tabs. You’ll need to drink a lot of pop for this one — at least 132 cans, depending on the length of your chain. Instructables suggests visiting a local recycling center if you want to skip the obscene amount of soda ingestion. What you’ll need: soda can tabs (132-152), heavy-duty wire cutters, key ring (1-2) 3. The Heat is On Image: Instructables Those attempting this project should use extreme caution. Instructables offers step-by-step instructions for making a fully functional stove from two aluminum cans. While the project may sound complicated, the materials needed are basic and can be found in the average household. Bonus: The stove’s portability makes it ideal for your next camping trip. And forget that hot plate — this stove is small enough for the tiniest of studio apartments. What you’ll need: aluminum cans (2), utility knife or single-edged razor blade, flue tape or heavy gage aluminum foil, thumbtacks or push pins and nail or drill, marking pen, ruler, a thick book, denatured alcohol for fuel Optional: hammer and scissors 4. Holiday Ornaments Image: Little House in the Suburbs So, you’ve finally climbed up to the attic and dusted off the box of holiday decorations, only to find that your ceramic Santa smashed some of your favorite glass ornaments. Instead of spending time and money shopping for new ornaments, simply make a trip to your recycling bin. Daisy at Little House in the Suburbs suggests creating original ornaments from aluminum cans. What you’ll need: aluminum cans, scissors, sandpaper, pen or pencil, a nail, ribbon, or cord 5. A Girl’s Best Friend Image: Rena Klingenberg Although we didn’t find how-to guide for making your own diamonds (we wish!), this tutorial from Rena Klingenberg shows you have to make stylish earrings from an aluminum can. While the construction is straightforward, an artistic eye will come in handy. Use acrylic paint to customize your earrings for that hard-to-match purple cardigan. What you’ll need: aluminum can, kitchen shears, safety goggles and protective gloves, decorative paper punches, small-hole paper punch or jewelry punch, earring hooks, jump rings, chain nose/flat nose pliers, super-fine Sharpie marker, small charms Optional: acrylic paints, finish varnish 6. Tote Bag With Flair You might have sustainable reusable bags made from recycled plastics, hemp, or recycled fabric, but do you have a pop can purse? Add some fun to your shopping trips with this project from Craftster. You’ll need to do some sewing and crocheting, so if you don’t have experience, it may be helpful to pick up a how-to book. Instructables offers a variation of this bag that incorporates T-shirts for the lining and bamboo for the handles. Image: Instructables What you’ll need: aluminum cans (10), scissors, paper hole-punch, sport-weight yarn, size “H” crochet hook, sturdy fabric (such as denim), sewing machine 7. This Little Light of Mine Image: DIY Everywhere Tea light candles create a cozy ambiance for any occasion, from dinner parties to cuddling up with your favorite novel. Add a special touch to your lighting with a lantern and tea light holder made from aluminum cans. While the holder’s design looks complicated, it’s a simple project — it just requires a steady hand and a couple of craft tools. Check out DIY Everywhere for step-by-step guidance and a how-to video. The design calls for slicing the cans with sharpened blades, so it’s a good idea to wear protective gloves. What you’ll need: aluminum cans, can opener, pumice stone/sand paper, exacto knife, wire (30 cm.), wire cutters, votive candle 8. Get Organized Can you never find a pen when you need it? Choose a colorful, empty soda can to make a creative pen holder. If you’d like, cover the can with construction paper and add personal designs with markers, paints, or other craft materials to “jazz it up.” Since the average soda can is lightweight, try adding a magnet or gluing a flat piece of wood to keep the holder upright when packed full of pens. What you’ll need: aluminum can, can opener, hammer, weighted material (such as a magnet) Optional: markers, paint, construction paper, scissors, glue 9. Firsthand Recycling If you’re feeling particularly adventurous, you could try your hand at recycling the aluminum in cans in a much more direct way — melt them down and reuse the aluminum yourself! If you’ve got a decent kiln and crucible, you can turn your former aluminum cans into drink holders or whatever you set your mind to. Just be sure to clean the cans thoroughly, dry them out, and make sure there’s no residue left behind before you start. What you’ll need: aluminum cans, kiln (wood, gas, electric), crucible (with higher melting point than your furnace, such as steel), heat resistant gloves, tongs, molds for pouring aluminum. 10. It’s Aluminum (Can) Siding One man took reuse to a level very few others can claim to have reached. After getting “sick of mowing the grass,” John Milkovisch began inlaying marbles, rocks, and metal pieces into concrete to form unique landscaping figures. When the yard was completely covered, he started on the house. Over the next 18 years, he covered the house with an estimated 50,000 beer cans that he turned into aluminum siding, garlands, and curtains. His efforts even lowered his energy bills. Today, you can visit the Beer Can House in Houston and see what his years of effort accomplished. What you’ll need: aluminum cans (50,000+), concrete, redwood, additional metal scraps, rocks, marbles, architectural knowledge, community teamwork, multiple years, patience Raquel Fagan and Taylor Ratcliffe contributed to this article.

memories of 1977

1977 The first Apple Computer goes on sale. Quebec adopts French as the official language. Jimmy Carter is elected as the President of United States and the first oil flows through the Trans Alaskan Oil Pipeline. The precursor to the GPS system in use today is started by US Department of defense. Elvis Presley Dies from a heart attack aged 42.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=GZ-k3oblIM8

British Public sector trade unions including Firefighters strike for wage increases over the 10% ceiling imposed by the British government. The first ever Quadraphonic concert in London by Pink Floyd. The first commercial flight Concord London to New York. NASA space shuttle makes its first test flight off the back of a jetliner. Voyager I and Voyager II are launched unmanned to explore the outer solar system.

When Britain’s fire crews walked out on national strike, members of the public were advised to take matters into their own hands. Although the armed services, with their so-called "Green Goddess" fire engines, were drafted in, they were seen by many as a last line of defence.

As the strike took hold in the encroaching winter of November 1977, people were encouraged to keep buckets of sand and water at home. And at a time when many still relied on open fires for heating, householders were advised to have their chimneys cleaned. The London Fire Brigade issued its own 11-point safety guide, advising checking for smouldering cigarettes and leaving only essential electrical appliances like fridges plugged in. The strike began on 14 November and lasted for nine weeks, running through to the New Year. At the time fire fighters worked a basic 48-hour week, for which they were paid an average of £71.10, which amounted to £3,700 a year.

The fire fighters finally agreed to settle for a 10% pay rise with guarantees of future increases and they went back to work on 16 January.

Silver Jubilee of 1977

The Queen’s first biggie was the Silver Jubilee of 1977. The two previous monarchs had not reached this milestone; the Queen’s father King George VI died after only 15 years and two months on the throne and her uncle Edward VIII did not even make it to a year.

Britain in 1977 had recently experienced power cuts, a forerunner of the Winter of Discontent.

No wonder the country was in the mood for a party. But celebrations were different then. Children’s parties used to consist of jelly and ice-cream and Pass The Parcel; now they want a cabaret show and expensive goody bags. Similarly, the Diamond Jubilee involves a cast of thousands and many hours of airtime each day over the better part of a week. The Silver Jubilee coverage consisted of less than seven hours in total, mostly on Jubilee day itself, with not a single celebrity in sight – unless you count Margot (actress Penelope Keith) from The Good Life presenting Jubilee Jackanory.

The Royal Family was smaller 35 years ago so the Queen had to carry out all her own Jubilee engagements.

She went on a royal progress through Britain, much of it by car, so that she could be seen by as many people as possible, even if time did not allow for a walkabout in every town. Late in Jubilee year, a newspaper published a picture of her looking weary, with the comment “Well she IS 51.” And now here she is doing just as much at 86.

The tide was already turning in 1977 as that was the first year when foreign cars outsold British ones.

In Silver Jubilee year leisure for most people meant watching your newly-acquired (but in many cases rented) colour TV. There were only three channels – BBC1, BBC2 and ITV – but somehow there was always something worth watching. The Professionals was a favourite, starring Martin Shaw (sporting a bubble perm) and Lewis Collins and their Ford Capri, as was The New Avengers, a revival of the Sixties series, starring Joanna Lumley and her Purdey hairdo, a modern take on the pudding bowl. Roots, the ground-breaking mini-series tracing a black man’s family history from capture in West Africa, was broadcast in April 1977. Morecambe and Wise ruled the comedy roost. A staggering 28million – half the population at the time – watched their 1977 Christmas show, a figure unlikely to be exceeded.

Sadly the same might be said of Britain’s Wimbledon hopes. No one has really come close since Virginia Wade won in Silver Jubilee year in front of the Queen.

Before videos and DVDs, people still went to the cinema and in December 1977 everyone wanted to see Star Wars, a new kind of fantasy film about “a galaxy far, far away”, that spawned the genre that now includes The Lord Of The Rings and even Harry Potter. Meanwhile the pop world was fragmenting. On one side there was glam rock and disco; on the other, punk. The Sex Pistols’ snarling version of God Save The Queen was released in Jubilee week and their manager Malcolm McLaren said it was proof that there were “barbarians at the gate”.

They never made it through. The popularity of the Royal Family surged in Silver Jubilee year just as it had in Diamond Jubilee year.

We are not the same country we were in 1977. But perhaps we are not entirely different either.

Cost of Living

In 1977, 56 per cent of Britons owned one car or more, 74 per cent owned a washing machine. 50 per cent of people had central heating in their homes. Computers, DVD and CD players were non-existent. A couple with two children had an average net income of £363 a week. A single pensioner received an income of £180 a week. We spent 25 per cent of our income on food. We spent 10 per cent of our income on leisure and holidays. In 1977, 93 per cent of men aged 25-54 were in work. However female employment in the same age group was 59 per cent. 26 per cent of jobs were in manufacturing.

Despite the vast majority of adults thinking that things were better in the 1970s, figures from that era suggest that life was not easy.

1977: Star Wars fever hits Britain

Thousands of people were flocking to cinemas in the UK to watch the long-awaited blockbuster, Star Wars – a movie which is already setting US box offices alight. Bracing the cold weather, young and old queued from 0700 GMT in London at the Dominion, and Leicester Square cinemas, to snatch up non-reserved tickets which were otherwise booked until March.

Star Wars, which was first released in America seven months ago, has taken audiences by storm and outstripped last year’s blockbuster Jaws to gross $156m (£108m) at the box office. Carrie Fisher, Sir Alec Guiness and little known Harrison Ford star in this fairytale set in space. Produced by Gary Kurtz, written and directed by George Lucas who directed American Graffitti, the U-classified sci-fi film is a classic epic of good versus evil. It has enthralled audiences under a dazzle of special effects with wizards, heroes, monsters in "a galaxy far, far away".

The 900 people involved in the film included giants, dwarfs, artists and the man who built machines for James Bond. Many of the optical special effects were developed in California by Industrial Light and Magic, a George Lucas company. The on-stage special effects were put together at Elstree studios in Britain. Filming took the cast to Tunisia, Death Valley California, Guatemala and the EMI soundstage at Elstree.

The build-up and hype has led to store wars over Star Wars with products including T-shirts, sweets, jig-saw puzzle, watches and food to name but a few. Mr Lucas has published a paperback version and Marvel comics have produced a special edition to meet the thirst for Star Wars’ merchandise. But for those queuing today nothing will satisfy them but a chance to see the film itself – easy targets for touts trying to sell £2.20 tickets for £30.

1977 The Murders of the Yorkshire Ripper

5 February – 28-year-old homeless woman Irene Richardson is murdered in Leeds, at almost the exact location where prostitute Marcella Claxton was badly injured nine months ago. Police believe that this murder and attempted murder may be connected, along with the murders of Wilma McCann, Emily Jackson and the attempted murders of at least three other women.

Near the body, the police discovered an important clue. The killer had driven his car onto the soft ground of Soldiers Field. The police were able to determine the tire marks as being two India Autoway tires, a Pneumant, and an Esso 110, all cross-ply. With a rear track width of between 4′ 1 1/2" and 4′ 2 1/2", the number of vehicles that it could apply to was twenty-six, including Ford Corsairs. A staggering 100,000 vehicles in West Yorkshire would have to be checked, and before the killer changed any of his tires.

23 April – Prostitute Patricia Atkinson is murdered in Bradford; she is believed to be the fourth woman to die at the hands of the mysterious Yorkshire Ripper.

Patricia Atkinson, aged 32, a prostitute, was the second murder victim in 1977 by Peter Sutcliffe. To the police, the Leeds killer had now expanded his territory to include Bradford. A blood sample showed that Patricia Atkinson had consumed about twenty measures of spirits. The police also found a bloody foot print on a bottom bed sheet from a size seven Dunlop Warwick wellington boot, which matched the foot prints found at the Emily Jackson murder scene. It was clear, from this, and from the injuries sustained, that the Yorkshire Ripper had now expanded his territory to include Bradford. As well, for what would be the only time, he had committed a murder indoors.

26 June – 16-year-old shop assistant Jayne McDonald is found battered and stabbed to death in Chapeltown, Leeds; police believe she is the fifth person to be murdered by the Yorkshire Ripper. About 30 yards into Reginald Street, near an adventure playground, Sutcliffe struck Jayne MacDonald with the hammer on the back of the head. After she fell down, he then dragged her, face down, about 20 yards into the corner of the play area. Her shoes made a "horrible scraping noise" along the ground as he dragged her. He hit her again with the hammer and then pulled her clothes up and stabbed her several times in the chest and in the back.

The slaying of a young girl, not connected to the prostitute trade, an "innocent", brought not only national attention to the case, and outrage from the public not seen in the earlier murder cases, but also caused Chief Constable Ronald Gregory to appoint his most senior detective, Assistant Chief Constable George Oldfield to be in overall charge of the escalating Ripper murder investigations. Peter Sutcliffe claims to have been shocked when he saw the newspaper headlines that Jayne MacDonald had not been a prostitute as he had assumed.

Jayne’s father, Wilf MacDonald, a former railwayman, was to die two years after her murder, never having recovered from the ordeal of her murder.

10 July – Bradford woman Maureen Long, 42 is injured in an attack believed to have been committed by the Yorkshire Ripper in the West Yorkshire city.

Maureen Long had remembered going to the cloak room at the club, and walking towards the city centre. She also remembered his white Ford with the black roof. But the description of her attacker that she was able to provide – white, well-built man, aged 36 or 37, about 6ft. 1in. tall, puffy cheeks, thickish eyebrows, collar-length wiry blond hair, with noticeably large hands – relieved Peter Sutcliffe of some of his worries about being caught. His only concern was the description of his car by the nightwatchman. In August he sold the white Ford Corsair to Ronnie Barker. When it broke down, Sutcliffe reluctantly took it back, stripped the car down, and redistributed the spare parts around the replacement car he had bought in September 1977, a red Ford Corsair.

10 October – Missing 20-year-old prostitute Jean Jordan is found dead in Chorlton, Manchester, nine days after she was last seen alive. Police believe that the Yorkshire Ripper may have killed her; the first crime outside Yorkshire which the killer has been suspected of.

Jean Jordan, also known as Jean Royle, and a prostitute, was killed on October 1 1977 as the Yorkshire Ripper expanded his territory to include Manchester. The events of the murder resulted in the Yorkshire Ripper leaving a clue that could be (and was) directly traced to him. Sutcliffe would also return to the body nine days later to try and recover the incriminating £5 pound note evidence, and when he failed, would carry out the worst attack and mutilations on any of his victims.

The handbag had not been found on October 10th, as it was just outside the police search area. The £5 note, which Peter Sutcliffe had been searching for on his return visit to Manchester, had finally been found. The incriminating note, the police discovered, had been from a batch issued in pay packets days before the murder.

Unfortunately, the five day delay in its discovery, coupled with the delay caused by the fact the body had not been discovered before Sutcliffe returned to it, and other factors, such as the delay by the police it announcing its discovery and the serial number, meant that too much time had passed to further narrow the search for its owner by any public input (see £5 Note Clue for information about the hunt for the owner of the note).

28 October – Police in Yorkshire appeal for help in finding the Yorkshire Ripper, who is believed to be responsible for a series of murders and attacks on women across the county during the last two years.

14 December – 25-year-old Leeds prostitute Marilyn Moore is injured in an attack believed to have been committed by the Yorkshire Ripper.

Marilyn Moore, a 25-year-old prostitute, survived an attack by Peter Sutcliffe, and provided one of the best photofits of the suspect from a known Ripper victim. As well, a clue found at the scene tied this attack to the Irene Richardson murder. Her description of the car was that is was a dark coloured or maroon vehicle, about the size of a Morris Oxford. Sutcliffe was, in fact, driving his red Ford Corsair. The police found an important clue in the tire track evidence that they found at the scene of the attack on Marilyn Moore. The tire tracks where consistent with the tire track evidence found at the Irene Richardson murder scene, the same India Autoway cross-ply tires were on the front wheels. There was no doubt that the Yorkshire Ripper had been the one who had attacked Marilyn Moore.
