Come into my parlor, said the spider to the fly: For Haled
This was a bad idea. Peter was pretty sure of this. Even if it was just Derek crashing there a few days, it meant them living together. In the former home of a woman he'd killed. Somewhere deep down, he knew this was a bad idea.
Yet he'd invited him nonetheless.
Unlocking the door, he made sure everything was clean and neat. It was all elegant in white and grey and oyster with a fireplace where earlier he'd built a fire, a massive desk tucked into one corner and a rather expensive computer set up that hadn't come with the place when he'd "inherited" it.

He considered that. "Don't work at the school. That's only going to make you creepier."
no subject
"I didn't plan on working at the school. I'm around teenagers often enough."
no subject
"Aren't we though," he said with a sigh. "We need adult interaction."
no subject
"Adult interaction that isn't just with each other."
no subject
"That would be nice, wouldn't it? Except most in town know us."
no subject
Peter's next point made the option of changing his name somewhat pointless, though. "Does that mean we're stuck with just the company of each other until the teenagers grow up?"
no subject
His name, that birthright, had always meant so much to him. This change wouldn't take that away from him.
"Boy, make it sound more horrible," he muttered, rolling his eyes.
no subject
"Come on." He watched Peter roll his eyes, resisting letting it catch on. "Like you want your only real adult contact in person to be me. Having each other isn't a problem. It's not having anybody else that is."
no subject
Which hadn't been that hard. He hadn't been entirely social before. Instead he'd been there for his family as much as he could. All for the sake of the pack.
"Derek, most of my contact before was family. Just a lot more family than one person."
no subject
"I know that. But there were still more of us back then." And, if he thought about it, the two of them hadn't spent a whole lot of time together. Sure, Peter had taken care of them, but Derek didn't recall all that much bonding time for the two of them.
no subject
"So get out. Make friends."
no subject
"I'll work on that."
no subject
"Derek, you can't punish yourself forever."
no subject
Derek shrugged his shoulders after a moment. It was harder than it sounded and he wasn't really sure where to start.
no subject
Peter bounced to his feet and gave a nod.
"We're going out."
no subject
"Right now?" As if it wasn't obvious.

He almost didn't want to know. But, Derek still stood up, ready to follow Peter once he moved for the door.

It wasn't too far, a hole in the wall place. Yet when he walked in, the bartender nodded. She was his age or a bit older, but in trim shape. "Evening, Peter. Evening Peter's friend."
