Carnival Under the Night Sky (Katherine)

[Kaine Riley]

Night had settled across the New York Harbor as Kaine walked up on the entrance of the carnival as he looked up with his glasses. He figured going as a civillian with katherine might give them a chance to know each other better. Katherine already knew that he was Scarlet Spider, so there was at least not a worry to hide behind Scarlet Spider around her. He could be himself and that was fine with him. The sunglasses, though he really didn't need them at night helped hide his scar that went down his right eye, he imagined that a lot of people would stare at him for looking so odd. He had gotten the scar a long time ago and it had been with him through most of his life, even costing him a part of his vision which didn't help either.

He walked up to the entrance as the people there were buying tickets. "Heay I'll by two teen tickets." He said as the tender nodded and took the money that he had. Most of the money he had these days wasn't from a job but from being Scarlet Spider. On occasions he went out to catch bad guys who had been put up as wanted by the police, and most of the time it usually worked that he got a decent amount of cash from it making out and it'd help pay for the rent too.

"Here you are sir and enjoy." The woman said as she gave him the tickets. Now came the hardest part. Kaine had offered Katherine a meeting spot underneath the entrance so she could see him easily with the red jacket. It reminded him of his suit a little bit, but no one would suspect that he was out here as a super hero. He tried to keep his identify a secret so no one would know,well except for a select few that he trusted.

"And now comes the tough part, waiting." He said to himself as he sat down on a bench as the minutes ticked by. He hoped Katherine hadn't gotten into any trouble or anything. Otherwise he would've felt guilty. What was supposed to be a fun weekend would turn into a disaster. Suppose he had the spider-man bad luck on his side to. As he sat on the bench he felt someone brush up against him nearly knocking him over. "Heay, watch it!" He said with a sharp glare behind his glasses, his spidey sense hadn't gone off, this wasn't the place for it. But the older looking guy merely laughed.

"Heay pipsqueak did I strike a nerve? You look like small fry if you ask me." He said with a chuckle. It was so hard resisting bringing out his stingers in this situation, to scare the guy half to death but ,he knew that would ruin everything as Kaine sighed.

"Bug off, I'm waiting for my date." He said as the guy laughed, this was going to irritate him so badly that he couldn't do anything here. Sometimes having a secret identity stunk. And eventually he knew the guy would get tired, bored and move on.

Katherine looked in mirror at herself and sighed this was her first date in actually last time it was trick so they can make her look like a fool. She actually hope this time it was going to different since was really to fully trust this She was currently wearing a just a shirt that black letters that says Wild thing and blue jean shorts. She then picked on her watch and switched it on changing her appearance so she looks like a normal person expect for her white hair which was the only thing that made her unique and she didn't want the hologram to cover. She wanted this night to be perfect and not to be ruined by her frightening people.

The night was suppose to be a fun time she wanted to make it a good one.She then got on her bike and drove her wait to the fairgrounds to the spot where told to meet up with him. She saw him and then smiled he was as handsome as ever and now she saw some guy picking on him and sighed little bit she had to also restrain herself from rushing over there and teaching those guys a lesson because she didn't want to embarrass her boyfriend by having his girlfriend having to come over to protect him. She smiled happy there was no fight and walked over to him " hello Kaine it's nice to see you again ...you looking pretty nice " she was being awkward since she didn't know what say to guy as she fidgeted her hands little bit nervously as she blushed little bit.

The fight quickly dispersed as the others began to talk a bit, mostly bad mouthing as Kaine managed to keep up his end of the fight pretty well. No surprise there. But the guy quickly left when he began to grow board as kaine sighed. But he heard someone nearby call out to him as he heard someone nearby call out for him and he was surprised to see that it was Katherine, and she certainly looked pretty. "Heay Katherine, sorry you had to see that a minute ago. I guess they got on my nerves." He said. There was a point where he almost wanted to take out his stingers, but once again they would've called him a freak.

"You look beautiful yourself, Katherine. I like the looks you've got." He said with a smile as he took off his glasses for a bit but it revealed his scar. "I think I'll keep the glasses on, even though the guy harassed me for it." He admitted knowing he was conscious of that scar. It had brought so many bad memories for it. "But now that the both of us are here, how about we go in? I've got tickets for the both of us." He said handing it over towards her as he put a hand on her shoulder. He would've hugged her, but he didn't do hugs... Still he'd make sure that Katherine and himself got through this one unscathed. He hoped that villains or bad guys didn't show up to ruin the fun for others at the carnival.

She smiled brightly as he called her beautiful although this wasn't her actual appearance it made her feel great usually people made fun of her white hair in her civilian appearance.She then responds to his compliment " Thanks ....Kaine ..I..." She was blushing deeply she was stuttering mess but it was a warm feeling inside she was feeling.She felt the warmness of his hand her shoulder as she got closer to him as she walked with him towards the entrance.

She took her ticket and then smiled waited for him to take her hand she was very cheerful since this was first real date all the others were just pranks or they would just stand her up. She hoped this time it was going different she really loved this guy and it would break her heart if he was just like everyone else who appeared to like her.She also hoped no villains caused them trouble or someone trying hurt people but there are times that things are quiet and that is a good thing.

It was true as well that this was his first date also. Kaine hadn't had much experience with love, so it had been a rough time. In fact Katherine had been someone special to him upon first glance. Even that he could trust his identidy with her meant the world too to him. Since Scarlet Spider seemed so close, but he knew better than to run around with his stingers out. "So Katherine, what ride do you want to go on first? I can handle rollercoasters and such." He admitted. One thing he wasn't a big fan of was getting wet on rides but he'd be willing to tolerate it if Werecat wanted it.

He took Katherine's hand gently in his but was also mindful that his stingers were right there in his wrists. He'd never forgive himself if he hurt her. "It sure is a quiet night tonight, I mean without being busy and all. I think I haven't had a night like that in a long time." He admitted knowing he was usually busy being Scarlet Spider and Katherine probably was busy having to go to school at Xavier's school for gifted beings. It must've been a tough job going there, but that was something he wasn't exactly interested in...he felt like he didn't belong there. He looked over the top of his sunglasses to look around, it probably looked odd seeing him with sunglasses but he'd perfer it that no one saw his scars. One painful part of his past. Although if Katherine asked, he'd be willing to take them off for a short part of time. "And don't worry, so far the Spidey sense hasn't gone off. And for our sake, I hope it doesn't." He added in a soft whisper he knew if his spidey sense went off things would be far worse.
