Summary → In which Peter gets you a stuffed animal to sleep with when he's away.

｡･:*:･ﾟ★｡･:*:･ﾟ☆ ｡･:*:･ﾟ★

Peter first discovered you sleep with a stuffed animal when he snuck into your room after patrol one night. You'd left the window open a crack for him. He was prepared to lecture you on how dangerous that is, but you were already fast asleep.

You unconsciously turned onto your other side, revealing a teddy bear in your arms. A big grin spread across Peter's face. Your own face was squished into the bear, cuddling it like you would him. He cooed out an "Awww" to himself, watching you relax into your pillow. No joke, Peter swore he'd never seen anything more precious.

He slipped out of his suit and into bed with you, chuckling softly at how you were still holding on tight to the bear. You woke up the next morning in Peter's arms. You were facing him, his eyes already on you with a playful smile. He rubbed some circles on your lower back and pecked your cheek.

"Didn't know you like stuffed bears," Peter rasped, you looking down at where yours lied. It was in between you two. You'd picked up its arm and used it to touch Peter's cheek. "He's your replacement," you explained, returning the smile. "Aw, baby." He pursed his lips, which prompted you to give him a quick kiss. His arms tightened around you. "You're so cute."

Your comment from that morning never leaves Peter's mind. His replacement. There have been quite a few nights you've spent without him, whether he's too busy with homework or extracurriculars. He wants to make it up to you somehow, so he stops by Macy's before you come over that afternoon.

He hid the bear behind his pillow, the biggest one he could find in the store. He's going to surprise you with it.

One thing leads to another and the two of you end up making out, Peter hovering over you. His lips move softly on yours as you giggle into him. He smiles into the kiss and you pull him closer by his shoulders. You lay your head on the pillow, feeling something push back against you. You break the kiss with a frown.

"What the hell was that?" You mumble and reach behind you to get it. Peter's eyes widen, him taking your hand instead. He holds it while he leans forward to retrieve the teddy bear himself. "I almost forgot. I have something for you." A half smile replaces your frown. "Why?" "Just 'cuz," Peter beams at you and gives your hand a squeeze.

He manages to get the bear out with one hand, setting it in your lap. You're fully grinning now, teeth and all. You hug it to your chest and look up at Peter.

"No way," you tuck your face into it with a soft laugh. There's a familiar scent when you breathe in. Woods and spices, and it reminds you of Peter. "It smells like you," you murmur into the bear. He bites back a smile of his own. "I, uh, sprayed it with my cologne," he tells you quietly, making you remove your face from the bear to see him.

"Thought this would be a more... accurate replacement." He sits back on his hands and watches you hugging the stuffed animal. "More to scale, too," you joke about it's size. Your other one isn't so large, though you like that this one is. "It's for when I'm on missions or whenever you miss me," Peter goes on. You put the bear next to you and loop your arms around his neck.

"Peter, I love it. That's so sweet, babes. Thank you." You're giggly again as he hugs back, arms secure around your body. He breathes out, "Well, I love you."
