Roommates and sleepovers (Peter, then Annie eventually)

[st_x5_494]

Alec liked Sunny. Not in a like-like sort of way, but she had fire in her he could definitely appreciate and she ever wanted to take him to bed to sort out any further aggression, he would totally be willing to do that. But after that and a run - he hated arrival day - he ended up back down the hall to his room. He pushed over the door and saw Peter lying face down on his bed. Alec was almost tempted to just back out of the room.

He didn't.

"Well, that's not a good sign." He sighed. "What happened? Did you fall and hurt your face again? Maybe you farted in front of Liz?"

Peter doesn't say anything to that because he's not exactly sure what he can say to it except I love you back, and he doesn't want to make it any more confusing for her than it is already.

So instead, Peter just holds her as long as she needs to be held.

The comfort of Peter's arms are enough for her to drift back to sleep. Her body relaxed completely in just few short minutes.

Peter gently rests Annie down, tucks the plush Spider-Man near her, then pulls the covers over her.

Peter dampens his lips and looks down at Annie. He has no idea what he's doing, but he's doing the best he knows. He really hopes that it's enough.

Peter crawls back onto the couch and pulls his own blanket over him and soon enough, like Annie, falls asleep.
