Peter's pov

I wake up to Happy softly smacking my cheek because we had arrived at the Tower.
He had apparently come to pick us up and had lifted me into the car.

I didn't even remember falling asleep. The last thing I can recall was me balling my eyes out in MJ's arms.

Happy once again smacks me in the face, this time a little harder, to shake me from my daze.

As I am about to get up, Happy stops me, "Careful, she seems exhausted."

I look beside me to see MJ sleeping peacefully while lightly snoring.

"She seemed really worried about you when I came to pick you guys up." Happy says while heading back around to the driver's seat.

I nod gratefully as I carefully hoist her into my arms and head up stairs.

...........................

As we enter the common room floor, I spot mom and dad on the couch watching what looks like The Notebook.

Mom spots us and smiles over her shoulder while dad barely spares us a glance.

"Hey honey, how was your walk?"

"It was fine I guess." I say looking down.

There is an awkward silence as mom looks between dad and I.

"That's it, this has gone on way too long!" She whisper yells as she takes MJ into her arms.

"I'm going upstairs to put her to bed and if your not back to normal by the time I get back, so help me god, Michelle and I are packing our stuff and going to stay with my sister!" She storms out angrily muttering some thing about gray hair.

After she leaves there is once again an awkward silence that seems to stretch on until I sigh and sit on the seat across from him.

"I'm sorry, for disappointing you an-" I start to say until he interrupts me.

"Wait, let me stop you right there. You think I'm mad at you?"

"I mean yeah, why else would you be avoiding me."

"I thought you were mad at me for not being more involved in your life." He said looking away.

"What do you mean not involved,  three weeks ago you literally drove like 30 miles because I forgot my biology project." 

"But-"

"And what in that supposedly genius brain of yours made you think that the best way to be more involved would be to ignore me and basically run away every time I enter the room?"

He looks away, seeming slightly embarrassed, and scratches his head sheepishly, "Well now that I'm hearing it out loud, it really wasn't my best idea, but I didn't even know you were having sex, I mean I still cut the crusts off your sandwiches."

"Ok first of all, those things are abominations and secondly that's because I really didn't want to sit through another one of your 'talks'."

Dad smiles at me and breathes a sigh of relief, "I can't believe we just spent the last week worried about nothing."

"Yeah we really are idiot aren't we." I say chuckling softly.

Dad reaches over and pulls me into a tight hug, "I love you Bambi."

"Love you too dad."

We stay in that position for a while before we both deside to go to bed.

I make my way to my room to seey mom sitting next to MJ while stroking her hair.
