1. He could get up and make a run for it. Which definitely wouldn't have at all seemed suspicious, or completely given away the fact that he was indeed Spider-Man. If this guy was smart enough to figure it out, then Peter's sudden escape might as well have been a neon sign that said 'Yes, I am, in fact, Spider-Man!'
2. He could deny the entire thing. He couldn't have been the only person in the entire city named Peter, right? It was New York, there had to be a Peter on every corner, he could pretend that this guy was just horribly mistaken.
"Nah, man, I think you've got it mixed up. I just take pictures of the guy." He shook his head, trying to remain as calm and inconspicuous as was possible -- after all, he'd made his boss believe that he was just really lucky when it came to getting good shots of Spider-Man, so why couldn't he convince Elliot too?
J. Jonah Jameson was an idiot, but Peter liked to think that he was just very convincing in his arguments.
"Met the guy a few times, but hasn't everybody in this city? He's a pretty personable superhero." Peter shrugged his shoulders, sipping from his coffee and briefly returning his attention to the photos that he'd been scrolling through on his laptop.
