Peter doesn’t want to hurt you at all, you can tell even behind the mask, those eyes zooming in like a camera lens. His fist never leaves his side, and all you can do is take a step closer. He takes one back.

“We have to fight,” you tell him boldly, your voice never wavering. “You knew it would come down to this when you came here, right?”

Peter likes to pretend the person in the black suit and gas mask isn’t you. Sometimes he convinces himself you’re twins so that he can sleep at night, instead of tossing and turning and wondering which one of his super aquatints is going to beat you up.

“You don’t have to do this.” This time when you take a step forward, he does too. This new tactic throws you off, the distance between you closer and charged with something. Something dangerous and explosive.

Your little dance continues until face to face is almost chest to chest. “I know. But I want to.”“This isn’t you. Please, I know it’s not.” His pleasing voice stirs up emotions you fought so hard to suppress. Without thinking, your hand shoots out, grabbing the edge of his mask. His reflexes are quick to apprehend your wrist, but he doesn’t pull your hand away.

Still locked, you very slowly drag your nails across his jaw as you lift the mask slightly, just barely enough to uncover his lips. You dart you eyes to them, and you have no doubt Peter is doing the same.

It takes but a second to be completely enveloped in his arms, kissing him so deeply your head spins. You want to cry; he’s so warm and tender and kind, but you are not. You’re nothing like this good, heroic boy in front of you.

You are broken, and cold, and you love creating chaos. Perhaps that’s the reason you love him so much.
