Peter stared at the TV as the news camera pointed to the ocean as they were pulling the car out of it.
"They found a body, but sadly the woman has died." The news lady said, turning back to the camera. "There-"
Peter turned off the TV, looking down at the baby as he was feeding her her milk from the bottle. He felt a hand on his shoulder. "She's lucky you were there." Aunt May said, kissing the top of his head.
Peter nodded. "Yeah, I just...I don't know why I thought she was going to make it out of there alive."
"I know you tried your best to save her but now look what you got at the end." Aunt May said, getting a cloth to wipe off the milk and saliva that was dripping off her chin.
"Yeah...hey, am I doing this right?" Peter said, frowning.
"No, yes..you're doing great." She smiled. She went back into the kitchen. "By the way, what are you going to tell MJ when she gets home?"
Peter frowned. "When's that?"
"...Today."
Peter stopped cradling the baby and slowly looked over at Aunt May. He had completely forgot that MJ was coming home today after being in Mexico for six months.
"Oh sh-, that's today isn't it?" Peter softly got up from the chair and into the living room with Aunt May saying, 'Support her head, Pete' as he made his way over to the calender on the wall. She was right, she does come home today.
"What am I gonna do? What am I gonna tell her?" He ran a hand through his hair, sighing.
Aunt May came over to him, grabbing the baby. "Just tell her what you told me, she'll understand."
"Aunt May, what is she gonna think of this? You know she dislikes kids."
Aunt May looked down as she was trying to burp the baby. "Peter. Just try to make her understand how things went down. If she really likes you, then she'll like Rosemary as well."
"I don't know, I just- wait, what did you call her?" Peter said.
"Rosemary." She shrugged. "I don't know. I didn't think her mother told you her name. I couldn't sleep last night because I was still wrapping my head around this and I was thinking of names and I came up with...Rosemary. Do you like it?"
Peter smiled, going over to hug her. "I love it. I honestly don't know what I would do without you, Aunt May. Thank you for helping me with her."
"That's what I'm here for." She said hugging him back.
Peter pulled away. "I'm going to go pick her up from the airport...I'm not going to say anything until she sees her, okay?"
Aunt May nodded. "I think that's best."
-----------------------
Peter waited at the terminal as he waited for MJ to come out. He looked down at the bouquet of flowers he had quickly went to buy at the store before he had got there.
He looked around at the crowd of the people, searching for her, until he recognized her beautiful brown curls. He smiled, as she looked up from her phone, as she finally saw him. She smiled widely, running over to him as Peter opened his arms for her to run into.
"Peter!" She wrapped her arms around his neck as he wrapped his arms around her waist. "I missed you so much."
"I missed you more." Peter said, kissing her softly on the lips. MJ pulled away, looking down at the flowers. "Are these for me?"
"Y-Yeah, they are." He said, handing them to her.
MJ smiled, receiving them while saying a 'thank you'. "Aunt May didn't come with you? What, did she stay at home to make me my favorite food? Kidding." She chuckled.
"Of course she did. You know she loves you, right?"
MJ smiled. "I love her too. I'm glad her and I got along. It means alot to me."
"It means alot to me, too. You two are the most important girls in my life it...means alot to me."
They both made it to baggage claim as they waited for her suitcases. Peter kept quiet as he grabbed her bags and led her to the car as she made a phone call to her Mom.
"I'm just going to stay at Peter's for a while, if that's alright? I'll be home soon. Okay. I love you too, bye."
MJ hung up, putting her seatbelt on as Peter put the car in reverse.
The car ride home was quiet as Peter wasn't saying much to her. "Is everything at home, okay? I don't know, you just seem very quiet." MJ spoke up.
Peter turned to her. "Hm? No, everything is okay, Em." He grabbed her hand, interlocking it with his as he kissed it. "I promise."
-----------------------
Peter said a small prayer as he walked up with MJ to the front door of his apartment. He pulled his keys out, unlocking the door. He made way for MJ to enter first and he made entered, closing the door behind him.
He saw Aunt May come out of the kitchen, smiling, while cleaning her hands with her tablecloth. She hugged her. "Aw, MJ! It's nice to see you again, I really missed you."
"I missed you too, how are you?"
"I'm doing alright, how are you? How was your flight? You must be tired."
"It was okay. Just going from one plane to another has made me a bit tired." MJ chuckled, taking off her sweater.
"Well, I hope you're hungry. I made you your favorite food to welcome you home." Aunt May led MJ into the kitchen before Peter pulled her back.
"Where's Rosemary?" He whispered.
"She's sleeping in your room. I fed her and I changed her so I don't think she'll cry and ruin dinner before you had the chance to tell MJ first."
Peter nodded. "Thanks." They both walked into the kitchen to get ready to eat.
-----------------------
"I met some girls in Mexico who were just so nice to me. They took me out to explore and they took me to all the best restaurants...the food was incredible, but the next day in the bathroom was...not." She laughed, drinking from her cup of pomegranate juice. She looked over at Peter. "Pete, are you okay? You've barely eaten."
"Um, I'm fine. I, just, I'm not really that hungry." He cleared his throat, as he poured himself his third drink of pomegranate.
"It's nice that you had some fun, MJ. Did you-" Aunt May was suddenly cut off by Rosemary's crying that made Peter's eyes widen.
"Wow, the walls must be really thin that you could hear the baby next door..." MJ chuckled. Aunt May put down her fork and looked over at Peter.
Peter swallowed. He knew it was time to tell her. Peter looked at both of them before heading over to his bedroom.
He grabbed Rosemary and slowly walked over to the kitchen. He heard MJ ask Aunt May what was going on.
He saw MJ's confused look as he walked in with Rosemary. "Peter, what is this?"
"This is Rosemary. She's-" Peter looked over at Aunt May and then back at MJ. "She's my daughter."
MJ stood up, frowning. "What?"
"Look, MJ, it's not what you think-"
"Then what is it, Peter? That you cheated on me as soon as I left for Mexico? That you impregnated a girl while I was gone? I can't believe you."
"No, No." Peter got in her way so she wouldn't leave. "It's not like that, let me explain-"
"I don't want to hear it, Peter. Don't talk to me ever again." She grabbed her purse before turning to Aunt May. "I'm sorry, but I have to go Aunt May...dinner was amazing, thank you."
She walked past Peter and closed the door behind her before Peter could say another word.
