Okay, first of all, how could Peter possibly string two words together, much less form an entire sentence, while Neal is standing next to him licking an ice cream cone?!?!?! GUH!
Second of all, damn you for managing to capture their relationship, Neal's complicated character, and the whole mood of a hot summer day in just 400 words?!?! *shakes fist*
This was brilliant and such a wonderful insight into Neal. I love how he wants to hear about Peter's childhood without resentment or regret for his own lost childhood. I love how Peter stops and thinks and worry that he might hurt Neal. *smishes them both* And my goodness, that shy smile? I love Neal's shy smile. It's my favorite. :D
