A few says later....

"Aunt May? How could you not tell us?" Peter shouts into his phone. "It was supposed to be a surprise!! I wanted to be closer to the baby!!" I hear her voice say back. I sit, crosses legged on the couch, eating. I've been really hungry lately....oh well. Peter shuts off his phone, and paces around the kitchen.

"Aunt May is moving here."

"What?"

"Yup."

"Where?"

"Down the street a bit, turn left, go down there, then turn right, 4th house down."

"When?"

"She said she'll be here tomorrow."

"What? Really?"

"Yeah."

At least there's something good coming out of Aunt May moving here. It means that my baby can be with her grandmother. But the bad thing is, we don't know where that murderer is. He could be anywhere.

Peter has been seriously stressed lately. He's just been worried about this murderer and everything, and he doesn't want Aunt May to get involved I guess. But he's just been stressed all in general. I can tell. I don't like seeing him like this. It's not healthy for the family. He comes walking over to me, and buries his head in his hands. I tap the space beside me motioning for him to sit down. He sits down, and I put my head on his shoulder.

"You ok baby?" I ask softly.

"Yeah. I guess."

"Oh It's ok. Nothing will happen, I'm sure. We just have to make sure we don't give away her new address to anyone. Ok?"

"Yeah. But I still can't understand how that guy got all our personal information. It's really weird. I just don't know anymore."

"Oh Peter. None of this was your fault. Stop beating yourself up."

"But..."

"No 'buts', we'll get through this together."

I take his hand softly.

"Peter. Don't worry about it. Ok?"

"Ok."

"Don't."

"I won't."

"Please don't Peter."

"It's fine..."

"I love you too much to see you like this."

Silence.
