"No, we couldn't.." Peter was still looking at her, just trying to take everything in, do his best to memorize every little detail. "Can't have you wondering off when I want you all to myself.." It wasn't selfish, that was how must people felt about their girlfriends, and he definitely considered her his girlfriend. There wasn't anyone else he'd rather be with right then. He believed in second chances, and Elle had proven that she wanted one, that she was capable of really helping.
When she kissed him, he allowed his eyes to close, returning the affection. After a second he lowered his head and started to trail his lips across her neck, letting his teeth lightly drag against her skin, not applying any real amount of pressure.
