Peter stared at the TV as the news camera pointed to the ocean as they were pulling the car out of it.

"They found a body, but sadly the woman has died." The news lady said, turning back to the camera. "There-"

Peter turned off the TV, looking down at the baby as he was feeding her her milk from the bottle. He felt a hand on his shoulder. "She's lucky you were there." Aunt May said, kissing the top of his head.

Peter nodded. "Yeah, I just...I don't know why I thought she was going to make it out of there alive."

"I know you tried your best to save her but now look what you got at the end." Aunt May said, getting a cloth to wipe off the milk and saliva that was dripping off her chin.

"Yeah...hey, am I doing this right?" Peter said, frowning.

"No, yes..you're doing great." She smiled. She went back into the kitchen. "By the way, what are you going to tell MJ when she gets home?"

Peter frowned. "When's that?"

"...Today."

Peter stopped cradling the baby and slowly looked over at Aunt May. He had completely forgot that MJ was coming home today after being in Mexico for six months.

"Oh sh-, that's today isn't it?" Peter softly got up from the chair and into the living room with Aunt May saying, 'Support her head, Pete' as he made his way over to the calender on the wall. She was right, she does come home today.

"What am I gonna do? What am I gonna tell her?" He ran a hand through his hair, sighing.

Aunt May came over to him, grabbing the baby. "Just tell her what you told me, she'll understand."

"Aunt May, what is she gonna think of this? You know she dislikes kids."

Aunt May looked down as she was trying to burp the baby. "Peter. Just try to make her understand how things went down. If she really likes you, then she'll like Rosemary as well."

"I don't know, I just- wait, what did you call her?" Peter said.

"Rosemary." She shrugged. "I don't know. I didn't think her mother told you her name. I couldn't sleep last night because I was still wrapping my head around this and I was thinking of names and I came up with...Rosemary. Do you like it?"

Peter smiled, going over to hug her. "I love it. I honestly don't know what I would do without you, Aunt May. Thank you for helping me with her."

"That's what I'm here for." She said hugging him back.

Peter pulled away. "I'm going to go pick her up from the airport...I'm not going to say anything until she sees her, okay?"

Aunt May nodded. "I think that's best."

Peter waited at the terminal as he waited for MJ to come out. He looked down at the bouquet of flowers he had quickly went to buy at the store before he had got there.
