Library [02/18]

[likethegun]

Sometime during the night, the dog thing had worn off, and Sam had gone back to being human-shaped. That alone was enough to put him in a good mood as he went to open the library.

"I wasn't deaf in the common room, you know. I could still understand English."

"Hey, whatever works," Peter said. "You'd rather I led with Dawn and a frying pan?"

Re: Fourth Period [02/18]

"No, I guess not," Sam said. "But I still think you're wrong about me carrying around unnecessary guilt."

"Nope," Peter said, making a gesture to cut off that train of conversation. "Not going there. I had to go to class on what should be a holiday. I'm not adding beating my head against a brick wall to the mix. Find something more fun to talk about."

Sam rolled his eyes, but went along with what Peter asked anyway. "Fine. Did you have fun at the dance?"

"Wasn't as bad as I thought it'd be," Peter admitted. He took a sip of coffee. "Better than being emo in my room anyway."

Re: Fourth Period [02/18]

"Most things are better than being emo in your room," Sam said. "I'm glad you had a good time."

"It was nice," Peter said. "Brooke was good company."

Re: Fourth Period [02/18]

[likethegun]

"Good friendly company? Or good date company?" Sam asked.

"...yes?" Peter replied, looking sheepish. "Started as one, kinda ended up as the other."

Re: Fourth Period [02/18]

[likethegun]

"Really?" Sam smiled at Peter. "You work fast. Good job."

Re: Fourth Period [02/18]

"Shaddup," Peter said, without any real anger or upset. "I didn't mean for it to go that way."

Re: Fourth Period [02/18]

[likethegun]

"Are you sorry it did?" Sam asked.

Re: Fourth Period [02/18]

[repeterpetrelli.livejournal.com]

"No," Peter said. "'course I haven't run into her since. For all I know she's sorry I did."

Re: Fourth Period [02/18]

[likethegun]

"Have you thought about going to talk to her to see if she's okay?" Because that was obviously what Sam would do in the situation, and not go and hide instead.

Re: Fourth Period [02/18]

[repeterpetrelli.livejournal.com]

"No, because when I'm concerned about something I prefer to bottle it up and not bother anyone with my feelings," Peter replied dryly, giving Sam an arch look. "Oh wait, that's you. Nah, just haven't had a chance to run into her yet."

Re: Fourth Period [02/18]

[likethegun]

Sam shot Peter a dirty look. "You know, for someone who's supposed to be my best friend, you're being awfully mean today."

Re: Fourth Period [02/18]

[repeterpetrelli.livejournal.com]

"Not mean, stubborn," Peter replied. He took a piece of powdered donut for himself. "Just because I said we're changing the topic doesn't mean I'm letting you off the hook. I'll hound you to the ends of the Earth if I have to."

Pause. Grin.

"No pun intended, I swear to God."

Re: Fourth Period [02/18]

[likethegun]

Sam tried to glare at Peter, but he could only do it for so long before he found himself caving and breaking into a smile.

"You're even more stubborn than I am, I swear," he said. "You'll have to let me know how it goes with Brooke when you finally get a chance to talk to her."

"You kidding?" Peter smiled. "You and Nathan are at the top of the list. Always. So how's things with you other than being a dog for a while?"

Re: Fourth Period [02/18]

[likethegun]

"Things are good," Sam said. "Especially between Dawn and I, thanks to Valentine's Day. So, that makes things seem a lot better."

Re: Fourth Period [02/18]

"I'm glad," Peter said. "You deserve a little happiness."

Re: Fourth Period [02/18]

[likethegun]

"Thanks," Sam said, looking a little bashful. "I guess it does kind of balance out everything else that's been going on lately."

Re: Fourth Period [02/18]

[repeterpetrelli.livejournal.com]

"Which you also deserve," Peter said. "Balance, I mean. Not everything else."

Re: Fourth Period [02/18]

[likethegun]

Sam laughed. "I figured you meant the balance. If I could just get things to tip more in my favor, that wouldn't be so bad."
