I imagined that here, he wouldn't be a reluctant hero so much as he'd be a nervous hero.

As said before, Peter idolizes the other heroes in this world and strives to be like them. The only issue is that one he becomes like them, he's nervous because he doesn't know what he's doing. He wants to be a hero, but he's scared that he'll mess up being a hero.

I feel that as the story progresses, it should get darker, gradually developing Peter from an over-excited amateur to a hardened hero who understands the risks of what he does, but does it anyways because, on top of it being his responsibility, helping those in need feels good to him.

So, no. I've never considered Peter to be a reluctant hero because he just does what he does to get the job done. It gets stressful and overbearing at times, sure, but every man gets to that point at one time or another in their lives.
