It was a cold January evening, you sat snug in the couch watching some TLC show about a man making out with his car since your subscription services were down for the night, it was hell

Scrolling though the channels, “The Amazing Spider-Man” came on with “Into The Spider-verse” right after, sweet

Suddenly you heard a small “ow” come from the room behind you, Malik, your beloved boyfriend walked out rubbing his hand

“Stupid spider- I swear the landlord needs to take better care of this shitty place”

He grumbled as he patched up his throbbing hand looking up at you with a smile, locs falling infront of his face

“Sorry ‘bout that sweetheart, spider got me while I was sketching new designs for the new community center they’re building downtown.”

And that was that. Right?

Right?

——————————————

The next morning you awoke to Malik sticking to the ceiling with his hands, dead asleep

You screamed so loud he woke up- panicked hard at his position he tugged around until he fell to the floor with an “Oof!”

“WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK WAS THAT-“

He yelped standing up- reaching for the doorknob only for it to get stuck on his hand as well

He Screamed

You Screamed

Your fat ass pug, Fino, that slept on the edge of your bed screamed just for the hell if it

That damned spider.
