Peter makes a tiny, fragmented sound that eventually works itself to a full dull, huh kind of a laugh. "No," he says lightly. "I don't."
Peter doesn't say anything for a few moments after that. He's still trying to put his thoughts into order so that he can understand with perfect clarity what he's feeling, but like knowing what to say right now, it's not coming easily.
And it doesn't quite come together when he opens his mouth to speak again.
"Why do you always leave?" he asks.
Peter kind-of asked before after Alec left when he punched him in the nose, but he never explicitly asked why he chose to leave. Peter just pointed out that Alec was avoiding him, Alec avoided admitting it, and Peter just asked why he didn't want to talk about it because that's the reason he thought Alec was avoiding him to begin with.
Peter's not entirely sure it still is, or that it ever was.
