WHO: Claire and Peter B
WHAT: Keeping the magic alive
WHERE: Their house
WHEN: Tonight

He'd taken what Sirius had said to him while they'd been stuck on one another to heart, about being in that place every day, every night - sure he liked it fine enough, and it was good to have something to keep him busy, but sometimes you needed a break from it all. Lucky for him, he had several people around he trusted to man the bar in the evenings for him, and well it wasn't like the place needed a whole lot of tending really. So Peter never really was too worried about what he might find when he came back to it.

But he'd grabbed a bottle of wine and he'd made up a couple of sandwiches before he'd made his way back home again, calling it an early night and ready to maybe catch a bit of that early night with Claire, because well - he'd been busy lately, busy in the way that he'd just been going through the motions and that was disappointing really. This place was strange enough that it shouldn't happen, but there he was a year in and he'd fallen into a routine.

Tonight though was not routine at all, and Peter nudged open the door with his hip after pulling the bottle of wine up under his arm for a moment, "Honey," he called with a stupid grin on his face, "I'm home." Yeah it was dumb, but well - Peter kind of felt a little bit dumb over the two people he'd been able to call his here. So he thought he was probably allowed.

This place could be strange and sure there was the chance someone might turn up and change everything, someone they knew or didn't know. But that was life, a seemingly endless combinations of situations thrown together and Claire was going to make the most of it and make the most of what they had in the time they had it.

Peter was special, John was special and of all the men she'd ever met they made her feel a hell of a lot more. Different things but none the less valuable and she didn't want to think about losing either of them.

The hot air had the curls around her face frizzy and the back of her neck was sweaty and it felt good, the heat of the water and his body. Tension slipped out of her she hadn't actually known she was carrying.

"Oh yes, the guy who runs the bodega near my building who stares at my ass, he's a real keeper," Claire said with a snort. He wasn't the only one who prioritised work over having a life, but her work was her life in a lot of ways. If they were to go back, Claire knew she'd want to try them on for size, to know they'd given it a go rather than never know what might have been. "So you'll look for me? Pinky promise?"

It was strange, when they'd first arrived everything Peter had thought then had been about getting back, about figuring the way back to their own lives so they could get on to them. But now, a year on and Peter wasn't quite so sure he wanted to go back, at least not without being sure he could hold on to what he'd built here. And considering the multiverse of it all - well Peter wasn't sure that was going to work out that way.

He dropped a kiss to her shoulder and hummed a soft sound, not to say anything just yet, as much as it was to simply to give it to her. Because he really did love her, and what they had made here together, and John - the tub might not quite be big enough for the three of them, but Peter liked the way they all fit when they did come together.

He huffed softly, his breath warm against her skin when she snorted, "Maybe you're into that sort of thing, I mean, you have a great ass." He reminded her as if she might not know it already. "Maybe you want a man who doesn't try and hide that he can't look away." Still it was nice to know that she had considered it, thought about being back and still doing this. It wasn't just a while they were here thing.

"Yeah," He nodded, lifting his hand from her thigh to offer her his pinky, "I'll find you. If something happens." He promised. And it was a big if, he'd been here from nearly the beginning as far as he knew, and he'd never felt any sort of pull or anything like it might be him being sent back. But if it turned out that it ever happened, yeah - he'd try and find her again, multiverse be damned.
