"Hey May", Peter waves walking back into the living room. It's been a lazy-ish afternoon, Peter resting after the party, the tower and his going out with friends. May smirks, "hey sweetie", she hasn't really had a chance to ask yet, and now that Peter seems relaxed enough it's time for her gushing to start. "So you and the quick one, huh?".

He blushes, stumbling. "You mean Pietro, I mean, yeah, I guess, I mean I hope so, but- I think it's just hit me". To this she can't help but giggle, "so you definitely like him". Slouching in the hug she wrapped him in, he grumbles. "Yeah, that's ok right?". She nods, overtly enough for Peter to be able to feel it. "Just don't do anything stupid and it should be".

"Though you're probably the last person I gotta say this to", she adds, stepping back from her hug and to the kitchen counter. Peter shudders knowing what she was talking about, "Maaaaayyy!" He whines. She only chuckles again, playing with a bouquet of fresh flowers she placed in a vase with water. Peter taking that as his way out, "pretty flowers".

Looking over the mix of red roses and yellow daisies, May subtly rolls her eyes. "Gift from Tony, they were just delivered". Peter grins happily, smiling over the gift, "that's very nice of him".

"Right", May slightly forces out, "don't you have a movie night with them tonight, what are you gonna do about that". Peter's got no answer, it's been 2 weeks since last time and everything's changed. Placing the vase by the dining table, May catches on, "how bout you go figure that out".

"And you're ok with that?", He turns to her, "with our movie nights and everything". She shrugs, resting back on their living room couch, "I'm definitely more ok with it now that you know who they are and they aren't bad, just have fun sweetie". It's good for Peter that May's ok with it, now to figure out exactly what "it" is.
