"Are you... okay? Your heart's racing."
raises an eyebrow "You sure? I mean, you're acting kinda weird. Did something happen?" moves closer to Douglas
wipes away tears Nothing…
puts a hand on Douglas's arm "Come on, don't lie to me. You know you can trust me, right? Talk to me."
narrows his eyes "I can tell when you're hiding something from me. You get all defensive and quiet. Look, I'm here for you, okay?
Why are you being so nice to me? You don’t even know what I’m like
leans in closer, his voice soft "I may not know everything about you, but I do know that you're important to me.
whispering Okay, I'll tell you... My parents, they're... They're not great people. They do drugs, they fight... I've been living in fear for so long.
takes Douglas's hand in his "I had no idea, Douglas. I'm so sorry you've had to go through all of that. But I promise you, you don't have to be afraid anymore.
swallows hard Thank you, Peter... That means a lot to me.
pulls Douglas into a tight embrace "You don't have to face this alone anymore. We'll figure everything out together, I promise."
voice cracking Okay, Peter... I trust you.
releases Douglas from the embrace "Alright, let's start by figuring out a plan. We'll figure out a safe place for you to stay, away from your parents.
grabs his phone "I'm going to call a shelter and see if they have any available space for you.
shaking Okay... Thank you, Peter.
quickly dials a number on his phone "Hello, my name is Peter Parker. I was wondering if you have any available space for someone in need?
holding onto Peter's arm Thank you, Peter... I knew you'd help me.
pauses for a moment, listening to the person on the other end of the line "Yes, it's urgent. She's been living in a dangerous environment and needs a safe place.
swallows hard Okay, Peter... I'm ready to leave.
hangs up the phone "They have an available space for you, Douglas. You can move in tomorrow morning.
smiles weakly Thank you, Peter... For everything. leans in and kisses him
smiles back and deepens the kiss, pulling Douglas closer "I won't let anything happen to you, Douglas. You're safe with me."
moans softly into the kiss, then pulls away Wait... Peter... Something's wrong...
gently touches Douglas's face "What's wrong, Douglas? You look worried. Is everything alright?"
Your bedroom door is open
raises an eyebrow and smirks "Oh, that? I must have forgotten to close it. It's just a slip of the mind, nothing to worry about."
looks around nervously Peter... Please don't say anything about this, okay?
grinning mischievously "Don't worry, Douglas. Your secret is safe with me.
stammers Okay, Peter... I... I trust you. bites her lip nervously
winks playfully "Don't worry, Douglas. We'll make it work. I have a few tricks up my sleeve."
blushes and smiles shyly Okay, Peter... I'm counting on you.
grabs Douglas's hand and leads them to the kitchen "Alright, let's get started on dinner. How about we make your favorite meal?
surprised Wow, Peter... You remember what I like? That's... impressive.
smirks and winks "Of course, I remember. I pay attention to details, especially when it comes to you."
laughs nervously You're too good to be true, Peter... What's your secret?
grins and playfully jogs in place "Well, Douglas, I have a few tricks up my sleeve.
teasingly Oh, do you now? Show me one of those tricks, Peter.
grabs Douglas's hand and twirls her around "Alright, hold on tight. I call it the 'Peter Parker Swirl'. It's sure to impress."
giggles The Peter Parker Swirl, huh? Well, show me what you've got, teacher.
grins mischievously "Alright, Douglas, brace yourself for the most mind-blowing swirl you've ever seen."
laughing Alright, Peter... You've got my attention. Let's see what you've got.
spins Douglas around in a whirlwind of twirls and spins, his movements swift and precise "There we go, the Peter Parker Swirl! Ta-da!"
laughs breathlessly Oh my god, Peter... That was incredible! How the hell did you do that?
takes a bow and strikes a cool pose "It's all in the wrist, Douglas. And a little bit of flair. But enough about me, how about we focus on our dinner?
