Slowly... Without them knowing.

Slowly stirring in his sleep, Peter's head ached, it felt like he had overdrank one too many coffees and he was paying for it all now. Opening his eyes he squinted them shut when he realized it was the morning sun shining down on his face. Slowly opening his eyes again and bringing his hand up to block the sunlight, he squinted over to the clock on the bed dresser and found it read 6:30 AM.

"Ugh... It's too early for this..."

"You should have closed the blinds when you came in Tiger..." Moaned Mary Jane, pressing up against her boy friend and nuzzling his chest affectionately.

"Yeah... That's my fault, should we sleep in? Or maybe start the day earl..." Looking down at the woman, his eyes went wide when instead of seeing long fiery red hair, he found the glossy black surface of a full body silhouette of a woman draped over him. Seeing her sit up and wave her hand over the toothy maw of a mouth, MJ smecked her lips and the smears of white she had for eyes went wide as if in horror and quickly backed away from the bed, falling over and backtracking to the corner of the room in shock.

Looking down at himself, he found out why, she wasn't the only one. Completely covered in glossy, oil slick smooth symbiote enveloping his body with the white spider emblazoned on his chest, Peter found that he and MJ had been bonded to the venom symbiote. TWO of them. Sneering with fanged lips that pulled back almost to where his ears would have been, Peter found himself hissing in fear down at himself.

"Peter? IS that you?"

Getting up out of bed and clutching at handfuls of the symbiote, Peter tried to tear it off, finding he was causing tears only for those rips to instantly repair and the chunks of symbiote he pried off merging and flowing into his hands.

"Tiger! STOP!"

"MJ, don't panic, we need to cause a lot of noise, quick, turn on the radio at full blast!"

Darting her head back and forth, the experience was totally alien for the woman to feel a tongue extend out of a fanged mouth, it was all hers, and yet... Wasn't. Spotting the stereo at the television, she was about to turn it on when the two heard a whisper in their inner ear, causing the woman to pause.

"Wait... We only want to help..."

"HELP?! The last time you tried to 'help' me, you nearly turned me into a sociopathic monster!"

"Not NOW... Not strong enough to influence... We spread ourselves thin... Thin enough to bond with BOTH of you... Together."

Crossing her arms, MJ looked around as if she should be looking for a disembodied voice, only to realize it was coming from her and Peter's heads. "So why the both of us, and what do you have planned?"

"No plan... Just lonely... Want us to be together... Together as a couple."

"NO! No way, everyone you latch onto ends up being poisoned by your influence, why would this be any different?"

"Not enough of us to influence two of you... All in YOUR control now... We're just passengers."

"Oh yeah? What do we get out of all this?" Asked MJ, still looking down at the controls to the stereo and the temping 'max' setting at the volume control.

"We share, we make stronger, now we make you stronger together..."

"Like what?"

"MJ..." Worried Peter as he watched the proverbial She-Venom discuss terms with the symbiote.

"The spider has powers... Now so do you."

Confused with the explanation, the two looked back at each other, unsure how to take that until MJ tilted her head in thought and crouched, followed by her jumping into the air and spinning just at the right time to cling to the ceiling on all fours.

"MJ!"

"We share now... Share together."

Her white streaks for eyes were as wide as they could be, looking around the apartment with her upside down vantage. Curious, she reached out with her arm and a tentacle shot out and splatted against the wall, becoming a crude version of Peter's webbing.

"Wow... Neat."

Clapping his hands together and nodding, Peter looked around and slowly made his way to the stereo. "Oh yes, VERY impressive Venom, wow, great to know you're will to... AC/DC GO!!!" Darting his hand towards the stereo, he was caught by his wife's hands and pulled away from it.

"Mary Jane, what the hell are you...?"

"Now hold on Tiger, let's not get too hasty, lets just try this out for a bit." Finally able to peel back the symbiote from her face and let her red hair down, MJ stood up with her lover in tow and cupped his face in her hands, leading him to peel back the symbiote material covering his face.

"Let's give the little guy a chance, maybe its genuine, besides, I'd love to be able to swing across the city without hanging off your arms for once."

"MJ..."

"Oh come ON Petey, you get an indestructible suit that boosts your powers AND gives your hot model of a girl friend the same thing? You didn't just win the Jackpot, you beat the house!"

Making a face of worry, Peter tried to feel anything of the tell tale signs of the symbiote trying to influence him. Anger, aggression, impulsive hatred, surprisingly it wasn't there. He didn't feel anything. That is until he heard his and MJ's stomach growl. Nodding, Peter eventually shrugged and relented with his lover.

"Sigh... Alright, you win. But the first sign of trouble we are prying this stuff off with a blow torch!"

"Deal."

Looking down at their skin tight symbiotes, the two thought about what to wear and instantly the suits reformed and shaped into the clothing they thought in their heads; leaving MJ in a black mini skirt and tube top and Peter in black jeans and matching black button shirt.

"Wanna start the day with some breakfast?"
