Please can I stay for dinner?" Peter B begged Miguel as he picked up the shards from the rapture gun he had obliterated minutes beforehand.

"Why would I let you do that?" Miguel got up from his place on the floor and marched over to Peter putting his hands on his hips.

"Uh, because I totally just saved your ass." Peter shrugged, winking at Miguel.

"And destroyed my stuff."

"To be fair, you're more of "it's stuff" that it's yours." Peter smirked.

Miguel was silent and went over to the bed. He sat down heavily and let out a loud huff. Peter continued to pick up the shards until he couldn't shake Miguel's gaze. Peter looked up to see Miguel pouting at him. His lower lip slightly jutted out.

"Oh come on Miguel, you have to admit that was a pretty educated thing for me to say." Peter said, turning to face Miguel properly. Miguel rolled his eyes and made a break for the door. Peter outstretched an arm, blocking him from getting by. Miguel snarled at him.

"What are you doing?" Miguel was glaring daggers into Peter B's skull.

"Keeping you from leaving yet." Peter said before bringing his other arm around Miguel to wrap him in a hug. Miguel was extremely tense at first but slowly relaxed into it.

"And so you could get a well deserved hug of course." Peter B mumbled into Miguel's broad shoulder. Miguel didn't bring his arms around Peter B in return, but Peter B was alright with that. He understood why not. After all the drama with Mj he had learned to be a lot more patient. Him and Mj were still on the fence about recovering their marriage but after having spent time with Mile he had gained a new confidence. And after spending time with Gabriella, he knew he did want a kid. And he wanted that kid to grow up and become someone like Miles and Gabriella. He wasn't sure how in God's name he was going to do that, but he was going to try. And that was something he hadn't done in a long time.

Miguel began to wriggle in Peter B's grasp and Peter knew he'd rather let go earlier than he would've liked instead of getting his head ripped off.

"Oh Miguel? You never gave me an answer." Peter said sheepishly.

"What did you even ask me?" Miguel cocked an eyebrow.

"I asked if I could stay for dinner?" It came out more of a question than a request.

There was a long and rather painful silence that left Peter B's eyes scrambling around the room looking for something to focus on.

"Fine." Miguel grouched.

"Great! What are we making?" Peter hooked and arm over Miguel's neck in which Miguel shrugged off.

"We?"

"Yes Miguel. We." Peter B imitated Miguel's voice at the end.

"I don't know. I'll ask Gaby." The two walked down the stairs together.

"Do you make all of your decisions through her?" Peter taunted.

Miguel thought about it before speaking up, "yeah."

"Unbelievable!" Peter jokingly shot his hands up in the air and by mistake hit Miguel over the head. Miguel attempted to growl, but it came out more of a shy laugh.

"Did Miguel O'Hara just laugh? Did he laugh at little ol' me?" Peter B smiled wide.

"Oh shut up you goof."

"And now he's calling me a goof!" Peter B sang his way all the way to the kitchen.

The pair made their way outside to Gabriella who turned around and ran at the sight of her father.

"Papa!" She cried running to him to hug him around the waist. Peter B watched as Miguel knelt down and nestled his head in her neck. He watched as Gabriella ran a hand through his hair. He watched Miguel whisper something to Gabriella that made her nod in understanding. He watched them. He watched all of them and he took careful notes. The way Miguel's hands held tightly onto Gabriella's back. The way Gabriella cupped his face and kissed him on the forehead.

All good things to know for if he had a kid.

"What do you want for dinner cariño?"

"Meat."

Peter B stifled a laugh.

"Meat?" Miguel echoed in confusion.

"Yes papa. Meat."

Miguel looked at Peter B with an expression that was just as confused as Peter B felt.

"Is that ok with you Parker?"

Peter B nodded his head slowly. Unsure of what to make of the strange request.

"Great. How about albondigas?" Gabriella nodded her head vigorously, a huge grin on her face.

Peter followed the two of them in. He liked seeing how happy they were together. Miguel shone. His head was a little higher and his voice was a little softer. Peter B appreciated this side of him and hoped to see more of it. While watching the two of them, it had occurred to him that he needed to tell Mj where he was going to be that night.

"I need to tell Mj where I'm going be around dinner time. I'll be back in a few!" Peter B saluted to them and watched as Miguel cringed.

Peter B opened the portal and hopped through. Once in his own house he looked for Mj and found her sat on the couch in front of the Tv watching Buzzfeed Unsolved. Mj had said he reminded her of Shane. Peter did not take this as a compliment.

"You're back late." Mj gave him a playful scowl.

"I'm sorry! Look, you know Miguel,"

"How could I not? You talk about him all the time."

"Ok well, that's besides the point." Peter pointed a finger at her, "as I was saying, you know how he lost his fiancé?"

Mj nodded her head.

"He's really not doing well and I feel like it might be best if I stay the night over at his place. Now before you sa-"

"You know you think that I think it sounds like an excuse to sleep with him, but go for it."

Peter's eyes lit up, "really?"

"Yes, but if you do anything I want to know all the details and if he's interested in women." Mj stated matter of factly.

"Ok great. Then I'll be off before he destroys the place." Peter walked over to Mj and kissed her on the cheek before heading out the door once again.
