Juno had never been happier to wake up. Then again he'd never been woken up by Peter. "Coffee, dear detective?" Juno sat up blinking then nodded silently. "Really you've ought to get a coffeemaker, it'll make coffee better than this swill but it's what we've got now." Juno said nothing and took a sip. "Are you joking?"

"Why, Juno what would make you think such a thing?"

"This is a lot better than what I usually have."

"Okay, you got me." Peter said jokingly. "There's a coffee shop near here so I went there." Juno rested his head against Peter's shoulder. "Why are you here?"

"I missed you, I already told you."

"No, why are  you really here?" Peter sighed.

"I probably should've guessed that you would know something was off. Naturally it started with a heist." Peter told Juno how he was given an incorrect floor plan and some security cameras may have caught a bit of him. "And I did miss you and am happy to see you again but that wasn't my main reason."

"You should go." Juno said. "What? Juno-"

"You should go. You're not here for anything other than to hide. It's been long enough you can leave. The police aren't good at their job and I won't tell anybody even if they ask so go."

"Juno, I..."

"Get out."

"Juno-"

"Get out!" Peter sipped his coffee seemingly unfazed. "No. I think I like it here, with you."

"I'm getting real tired of these lies, Nureyev."

"Juno, you really let your emotions get it the way, it should be obvious that I'm telling the truth."

"To be honest I don't care right now. I was so stupid to think..."Juno trailed off, shaking his head. "Juno." Peter grabbed Juno's wrist. "Will you just listen to me!" Juno looked away from Peter. "Just go." Peter let go of Juno's wrist and got up. But he didn't pack his things he didn't get a ticket off Mars he didn't even think about that. Instead he went to Rita.
