I let out a sigh as I lifted the ball up into the air and then dropped it before catching it.
"I am so bored." I groaned out.
"I feel that.... want to go steal something?" Peter asked as he laid on the ground.
"Right now I don't really care what we do." I said calmly.
"So..."
"No we aren't stealing... I like having a clean record Maximoff."
"Damn.... could practice with your powers."
"I'm not in the mood."
"Want to just lay here and do nothing?"
"Yes."
"Could cuddle."
"I don't trust you."
"Why not?" He asked playfully.
"Last time you tried to cuddle with me you smacked my ass." I said as I set up.
"Could bug your mom?"
"She is in Germany."
"Could have sex."
"Alright."
"Seriously?"
"No."
"After a year of knowing you, I should of known that you were screwing with me." He said as he shook his head.
"Yea I was." I said with a laugh.
"I hate you."
"Love you too." I said with a laugh.
"Isn't your birthday tomorrow?" He asked with a smirk.
"No it's today... just turned fifteen."
"And you are here instead of home?"
"Mom is gone to Germany, Daniel is with David in Paris.... so really don't have any plans." I said as I shrugged my shoulder.
"Nope, we are doing something. Mom! It's Cas' birthday and she isn't doing anything!" Peter yelled as he ran up stairs.
"Damn it." I said as I raced after him.
"Why didn't you tell me? I'll go and get a cake." She said with a smile.
"You don't have to do that-"
"Shut up, you are practically family." She said softly.
"Thank you... but you don't have to do that." I said softly.
"To bad." She said as she grabbed her purse.
She left the house and I sent Peter a glare.
"Love you best friend."
"I hate you." I said as I walked back down stairs.
"Oh no you don't. Mom gave me money to take you out. So me and you are getting slushes." He said as picked me up and put me on his back.
I laughed as I wrapped my arms around his neck and he sped to the nearest gas station. I smiled as he put me down and we walked into the gas station.
"Jerk." I said as we grabbed a cup.
"You love me." He said as he sent me a smile.
We got our slushes and he paid before we went to the park and set down on the swings.
"So I got asked out on a date." Peter said with a smile.
"Did you say yes?"
"Nope... said I was taken." He said with a smile.
"By who?"
"You."
"Was she ugly?"
"She was Amy Stone."
"And you said you were dating me? Why?"
"We kind of are dating." He said with a smile.
"No we aren't."
"Yes we are."
"No we-"
"We spend every second of the day together. We cuddle, we go out and eat dinner together and you have met my parents and I've met yours."
"Doesn't mean we are dating."
"What will make us be dating?"
"Peter..."
"One good reason why you and I can't date." He said as he looked over at me.
"We just can't."
"Why?" He asked softly.
"Because you'll end up leaving." I said as I looked away from him.
"Why would you think that?"
"Everyone leaves."
"I'm not everyone." He said softly.
"I can't."
"Cas look at me.... you are my best friend.... I've liked you since I first met you a year ago.... you aren't like everyone... you are different." He said as he forced me to look at him.
I shook my head no and he let out a sigh.
"I'll wait as long as I have to.... because you mean the world to me.... and one day I'm going to break that wall." He said as he sent me a small smile.
His phone went off and he pulled it out.
"Hey, Yea we are on our way." He said softly.
"Mom has everything ready." He said softly.
He picked me up and sped to his house.
"I'll be back. Make sure she doesn't escape." Peter said as he sped away.
I smiled as I watched him speed away. Until he returned I talked to his mother and sisters. When I heard the door open I turned to see Peter walk in with a box.
"Happy birthday." He said as he handed it to me.
"Peter you didn't have to." I said as I took it from him.
The box was small and had silver wrapping paper around it. I smiled as I unwrapped it and opened the box. My eyes went wide when I pulled out a bracket with a white diamond lightning bolt charm.
"I can't... this... this couldn't of been cheap." I said softly.
"It wasn't but it's yours... and you are keeping it. I had this planned out for three months." He said with a smile.
I sent him a smile and handed it to him.
"Clip it on me." I said as I shook my head.
He took it from my hand and gently slipped it on my wrist.
"Perfect." He said softly.
"Thank you.... I love it." I said as I looked at it.
"Your welcome." He said softly.
"I owe you." I said as I sent him a smile.
"You already did enough... I mean you got me my favorite jacket." He said as he sent me a smile.
"I did get you that for your birthday... I forgot." I said with a laugh.
"Favorite piece of clothing." He said with a smile.
"I think you would just wear that if you could." I said with a laugh.
"Don't tempt me." He said playfully.
I shook my head and left to help Peter's mother cook.
"So... did he finally man up and tell you how he felt?" Wanda asked with a smile.
"Yea... but I said I couldn't date him...... and I'm starting to regret saying it."
"If there is one thing I know it's that he is crazy about you." She said softly.
