"You knew this was coming, Pete!"

"Man, I can't wait to get some shut-eye," yawned Lisa, after she closed and locked the door to her and Peter's apartment.

"Yeah, me too..." agreed Peter.

Just then, Peter's flip phone started to ring. 

"Wait, hang on, hon. It's Aunt May..." Peter told Lisa, which she just nodded in response. "Hey, Aunt May. You're calling late. What's up?"

"Oh, I'm so sorry, dear! I- I wanted to talk to you about something, but I don't want to bother you-"

"No, you could never be a bother, Aunt May. You're practically my mom. I'll be right over."

"Are you sure, Peter?"

"Yes, I'm sure. I'm already dressed. See you soon."

"Well, alright, dear."

"Hi, May!" smiled Lisa.

Aunt May laughed over the phone.

"Oh! Why, hello, Lisa! I love your new album, dear."

"Thank you!" she smiled.

"I'll see you soon. I love you, Peter."

"Love you, too, Aunt May," smiled Peter, before hanging up and starting to explain himself to Lisa.

Lisa just smiled and pecked her boyfriend's cheek.

"It's okay," she reassured him. "Go see what Aunt May wants."

Peter kissed her.

"I love you."

"I love you, more," giggled a smitten Lisa, before getting serious. "But you should probably leave the suit..."

Peter looked down and his eyes went wide.

"Good thinking," he said.

With a simple thought, the black suit flowed down to the floor. Thinking on her toes, Lisa grabbed a nearby mason jar and captured the black goo inside it.

"Okay, I'll be back soon. Love you," Peter said, pecking his girlfriend's lips.

"Mmm. Love you, more," Lisa smiled, into the kiss.

Peter turned to leave, but Lisa stopped him.

"Oh, baby?"

"Yeah, bubs?"

"Tell Aunt May I said 'Hi.'"

"Will do," he said, as he started to turn around.

"Oh, and, Peter?"

"Yes?"

"Can you bring me back one of Aunt May's famous snickerdoodles?"

Peter let out a soft laugh.

"Of course, babe," he said.

"Peter."

"Yes?"

"Be careful."

"I'll try."

"Pete?"

Peter let out a somewhat irritated sigh, as he turned back around for the fourth time.

"Yes, Lise?"

"I just wanted to say I love you..." she said, before giggling.

Peter threw his head back and laughed.
