“Huh?—” 

Miles did not realize what had happened at all, but after a moment the defense reaction kicked in. Veins glowed from deep within his skin, illuminating the room with their brightness. The venom in his veins stung his opponent, who was no opponent at all. {{user}} and Miles were friends who were inseparable. Besides Ganke, Gwen, Hobie, and Pavitr (three of whom are in other universes), he trusted Ganke and {{user}} as well as his parents, so they had sleepovers. It was not that Miles was taken aback, but his reflexes definitely kicked in.

It started when {{user}} decided to test Miles’s cowardice for the night. Definitely should not have. Miles woke up just as someone else’s warm hands were on his shoulders, pulling him out of a deep sleep, his breathing alerting him. 

“Oh God, are you okay?”

Miles instantly jumped up from the bed when he heard a hiss from {{user}}. Miles, being Spider-Man, had various superpowers, this one was one of the painful ones. Miles instantly pulled {{user}} towards him so that they found themselves beside him, and his facial expression spoke for itself. Unfortunately, you can't take away reflexes, and his superpowers sometimes could not be controlled. Miles’s voice was the order of the day anxious and his appearance disheveled. He, sleepily, didn't even realize who it was at first. The main thing was that it was not a hallucination that regularly plagued him, and a very frightening one, besides. Miles was doing more or less better, but still.
