The Unbridled Truth....Peter and Willow

Remember we are still back in February! Gotta catch 
up just a little more ;-)
Peter managed to convince Willow to come home with him instead of storming off to sulk somewhere else. We know that Willow tends to get flighty when things get tough in a relationship. She's had so much heartache over the past few years that when Luke blurted out about Peter's near illicit affair with his mother, it immediately made her want to bolt...to just run and don't look back, as if that would make what she just heard disapate from her thoughts...
The whole ride home in the car Peter did his best to try and convey to her that he was not currently involved with Cynthia. Peter-"C'mom babe, have I ever given you any reason to think I'm fucking someone else?!".... When she doesn't respond he continues...Peter- "No! You know I haven't! Shit, you and I have spent nearly every waking 
moment together since you moved back in with me...C'mon!" 
But Willow just sat still and stared out the window of Peter's car as he drove them both home. She debated several times whether she should jump out of the car when he was stopped at a red light. The urge to bolt was so strong, she fought it though...
As soon as he pulled into his parking spot at the apartment building, Willow dashed out and headed inside. By the time Peter caught up to her the door to the bedroom was shut and locked. He knows he severely disappointed her for not confiding in her about his entire past...

*Peter* "Willow?...Open the door!...Willow?!"
Peter curses under his breath and continues to jiggle the door handle..Pleading with her to let him in. 

*Peter* "Willow I know you're in there...Open the fucking door!..."
Willow still does not answer him. She just wants to be left alone. Normally she would go home to her mother's house but this time she can't bring herself to do it. Her mother still questions her sanity about things with Peter. She tolerates it but has yet to let her guard down when it comes to Peter breaking her daughter's heart again and again...And Willow cannot subject herself to the scrutiny of her mother's ill advised relationship advice, so she has opted to lock herself in Peter's bedroom instead.

*Peter* "Babe, I'm sorry! Please! I know I'm a fucking idiot for not
telling you the truth! Just open the damn door!..."
She can clearly hear the sincerity in his voice when he apologizes but it still does not placate the sting of pain she feels that he did
 not trust her enough to tell her the complete truth.

The tears have stopped flowing since they got home because she knows he is not cheating, that much is obvious, but in it's place anger begins to build. Angry because he chose to keep yet another secret from her, one so huge that ripple affects are now being felt between the entire group of friends. Things were already at a fragile state to begin with.  Peter calms down a little more trying to be sympathetic
 to what she is feeling...

*Peter* "Babe, I know you're angry with me! I'm a fuck up and I'm sorry!
What more do you want me to do?!..."
Willow pops her head up off the pillow. 

*Willow* "Just go away! Leave me alone..."
Peter sighs with relief when she finally answers him back.
 He leans in more against the locked bedroom door trying to 
make sure she hears every word he has to say.

*Peter* "You're the only woman I want, Babe...I don't love her and I never have!
 Please, it was a long time ago, I was just a kid for fucks sake...
Just open the door."
Peter goes silent and Willow pops her head up again listening to see if he is still there. Part of her wants to let him in as he pleads for forgiveness and then the angry part of her wants to let
 him suffer a little more...

*Peter* "Willow?....I'm not gonna leave till you open
the fucking door!...You want the truth? You want me to fucking tell you everything?
Then please just open the door..."
*Willow* "I don't want to talk to you! Go away!..."
Peter leans in again and tilts his forehead against the door. Her 
voice is muffled by the thick, old wooden door so he's sure 
his voice is a bit hard to hear too.

*Peter* "Fine we don't have to talk if you don't want to, okay?...Just let me in, I need
to piss like a gawddamn fucking race horse and I'd like to take a nap
 before I go to work later tonight...C'mon Babe."
Willow pops up again to reply to him.

*Willow* "So take a piss off the fucking balcony for all I care! We all know how
 much you love to show that thing off anyways...Now leave me alone!!!...."
Willow is right about that, he has had no problem whatsoever in the past at making it known about the large member that dangles 
between his legs. Peter has always used
 it to reel women in, herself included...

*Peter* "No fucking way....There's only one bathroom in
this apartment...C'mon!...Willow?!."
But Willow has gone silent again, while Peter continues to 
plead with her to at least unlock the door so he can use the 
one and only facilities in the small apartment...

*Peter* "Willow?!....C'mon, babe there's only one bathroom..."
Still no response from Willow. Peter jiggles the handle again hoping by some miracle maybe she felt sorry for him and turned the lock. 
Nothing, still locked and Willow continues to ignore him...

His hand drops from the handle, disappointed he can't get her to open the door. Peter decides to take a quick drive down to the neighborhood market, normally he'd walk it, but his bladder is currently a ticking
 time bomb...The drive alone with his thoughts and the cool air 
helps him relax and understand that she probably just needs
 time to process what she has learned. 

At home Willow dozes off to sleep. She too is tired from their late nights, and her early mornings. Willow is still adjusting to living here in this apartment again. Peter offered that if she wanted to move to another apartment he would follow her but Willow insisted it was okay. That she had closure on what happened to her last spring and that she knew how much she loved his little vintage abode near downtown.

*******************************************

Hours have now gone by and it's now late evening somewhere around 9pm and the apartment is almost pitch dark. Peter came back home and eventually dozed off on the couch. A new magazine he picked up at the local market splayed across chest after he fell asleep halfway through scoping out the articles and pictures... 

 Back in the bedroom Willow stirs awake a big yawn 
forcing it's way out as she sucks in oxygen, and wakes
 from her sleepy stupor...

*Willow yawning* "Mmmm....what time is it?"

 Willow checks the clock on the little stereo by the bed. It's 9:09pm...

Sitting up in bed she rubs her neck falling asleep

 on her stomach was not the most comfortable position. 

The apartment is not only completely dark but completely silent too. No Peter at the door begging to be let in. She wonders if 

he maybe took off for work early.

Willow gets up and heads into the living room. When

 she opens the door she finds Peter there 

sacked out on the couch, lightly snoring...

She stands in the doorway for a moment and fiddles with her necklace...He looks so sweet there sleeping...

The anger she felt hours ago has faded.

 She knows he did not intentionally mean to hurt her. It has taken so much for Peter to open up to her, and Willow as well. Constantly each of them have to shift the puzzle pieces of their

 jumbled relationship if they want to see it progress. And she knows 

she cannot let him go. Willow goes to sit at his side. He will

 be late for work if he does not wake up soon.

*Willow* "Peter?..."
She shakes his arm to stir him, 
gently jostle him awake....
*Willow* "Peter...Wake up!...You don't want to be late."
Peter is brought out of his sleep by her sweet, soft voice. 
Smiling up at her, he's glad to see her face.

*Peter smiling* "Hey...What time is it?..."
*Willow* "Late...Like 9:15...Don't you have to be at work by 10?..."
*Peter* "Yeah I do...but I don't--"
Willow interrupts him, she has a feeling she 
knows what he was about to say. The dim of the moonlight
 only giving them the faintest of light to see in the dark. She may not be able to see him clearly but she can hear it in his voice...

*Willow* "Peter, I'm not mad anymore...I know you're not cheating on me."
*Peter* "I'm not, Babe...You're the only woman I want..."
She can feel his fingers gently brushing her forearm. Attempting to reassure her that he only has eyes for her. 
*Willow* "It still bothers me that you chose not to tell me about Cynthia, instead just
 left me blinded sided by it thanks to Luke's outburst..."
*Peter* "I didn't want to put you in a bad position, Babe....What if Laura found
 out you knew and that you never told her?...I don't want you to loose
 her because I was a shitty friend. I'm sorry..."
*Willow nods* "I forgive you..."
*Peter* "Really?!..."
*Willow* "I love you too much to give up on you so easily..."
*Peter* "Good, cause I feel the same fucking way, Babe...
Peter pulls himself upright to a sitting position...
He definitely does need to get ready for work but 
he's not ready to leave her yet...

*Willow* "Do you think you will be able to patch things up with Luke?"
*Peter* "Fuck him!...That shit happened ages ago, if he wants to whine and
cry then let him...I haven't slept with Cyn-- Oh....shit..."
Peter gets situated on the couch next to Willow and leaves her hanging trailing off his sentence into his own thoughts. He forgot he hooked up with Cynthia the night after the fourth of July BBQ, Laura went into labor with Phoenix later that evening.

*Willow* "Oh shit, what?!...Peter?!"
*Peter* "I...uh...promise me you won't get mad?..."
Willow looks at him with hard skepticism but it's dark so 
Peter can barely see her reaction. He knows he has to be honest 
and forth coming, it's the only way they will get past this.

*Peter* "Technically the last time I hooked up with Cynthia was when Phoenix was born..."
*Willow* "You mean after we met?!..."
*Peter* "No...no! I mean the night Phoenix was born. I was there
when Luke called her about them heading to the hospital."
*Willow smiles with relief* "Oh! oh okay...then 3 months later you met me..."
He is not done confessing all his past hook ups with Cynthia. As Peter
begins to blurt out one more truth he pulls her in but 
as soon as the words hit his lips she pushes back...

*Peter* "I know...Also a few times after we broke up..."
*Willow* "Are you serious?!!..."
*Peter* "You want the truth right?..."
*Willow sighs* "The unbridled truth...yes. Please don't hold back
 anymore, promise me?..."
*Peter* "I promise, babe."
*Willow* "So will I...So is that it?.."
*Peter with assurance* "Yes...that is it."
Willow leans in against him relieved he finally came
 completely clean with her. She knows life is never ever going to be simple with Peter, but she wonders sometimes if that
 will be their undoing....Peter kisses the top of 
her forehead just where her hairline starts. 

*Peter* "You know this shit is not easy for me...I never imagined 

we would be here right now either. 

*Willow* "I know...neither did I."

*Peter* "I mean it though when I say I only want you. Forever scares the shit 

outta me but if I've got you then I think I can fucking get through this."

*Willow* "I know...forever scares me too."

*Peter* "I dunno, I think I've loved you since the moment I saw you..."

Willow begins to shift her body from 

where she was sitting to a more perched position...

*Willow smirks* "You mean you loved to fuck me..."

*Peter smiles* "Well, there is that too."

*Willow nods* "Mmmhmmm....Don't worry I felt the same."
She continues to lean in more as Peter leans back...It
doesn't take a genius to figure out what she's after...
These two have always had instant sexual attraction

Her movements are graceful and slow as she methodically moves in the dark, her body hovering over Peter's. Like a cat playing with it's unsuspecting prey, she saunters over him. Peter slides down succumbing to Willow's advances, kinda hard
 to resist this dark haired kitten.

*Peter* "Whoa, babe...what about work?...I'll be late."
*Willow* "You got 10 mins to spare..."
*Peter* "I don't know if 10 minutes will be enough..."
Willow slides her hand down along 
the inseam of his denim
jeans. She can already feel his arousal.

*Willow* "It will be if we make it enough..."
*Peter* "Fuck it...I can be 20 minutes late."
Peter and Willow waste no more
 time on words...As they fumble around in the near dark room,
 grabbing at each other. A soft dainty hand comes up finding a
 stubbly haired cheek and presses her lips to his...

 Willow is a beautifully angelic, woman...Who seems to make his soul feel more alive each day he spends with her. They definitely 

hold a fiery passion for one another. That fire, the passion and  
the love was born on a golden ember sunset a year ago 
when Peter finally told her he loved her. 
About 10 minutes later they lay there both breathless and flush with heat, the cool air hitting their damp, naked skin. Peter traces small circles with his finger on the back of her shoulder. 
I think he satisfied this little kitten...

*Willow* "Peter?..."
*Peter* "Yeah, babe?..."
*Willow* "What did you see in her?..."
*Peter* "Who, Cynthia?..."

*Willow* "Mmmhmmm...."
*Peter* "Believe it or not, Luke's mom was fucking hot
back in the day...but that's not how it happened..."
*Willow* "What do you mean?...."

*Peter* "You sure you want to hear this?...."
*Willow* "I don't think anything you say now can
shock me anymore. Just tell me..."
*Peter* "When Luke and I met...I was still a virgin...He wasn't."
Peter and Luke met when they were both seniors in high school, behind the gym at Luke's high school on prom night. Willow pops her body up and does her best to focus in on his face in the dim light of the room...

*Willow* "Wait a minute...Are you sayin'?..."
*Peter* "Yes, Cynthia was my first..."
*Willow drawls out in disbelief* "Noooo?!...This is a joke right?...
You're just fucking with me..."
Peter knew she would not believe her....He's always 
walked around with such confidence in his 
abilities with the opposite sex, but he wasn't always that way. 

*Peter laughs nervously* "I'm not fucking with you babe, I swear!...Luke's
mom, she....she was my first."
*Willow* "So what happened? You just show up one day when Luke's not there
 and she comes out half naked or some shit like that?...."
*Peter* "Uh no....not exactly..."
Willow slides her body back down along his chest, getting more comfortable...She is really dying to know all the details. Not everyday can she get juicy tidbits like this out of Peter, but he is stalling...
*Willow* "Then what happened?..."
*Peter* "Is this fucking turning you on?..."
*Willow* "What? No...You can't just leave me hanging....
So did you make the move or her?
Peter begins to trace circles on the back of her shoulder again. He's never told anyone about his first time. Peter
 just always buried his secrets. There is just enough 
light for Peter to see her clear blue eyes, making it easier
 to get lost in the moment with her...they are mesmerizing.

*Peter* "She did...I guess."
Peter pauses...
*Willow* "Aaaand?!...Are you worried I'm gonna tell Laura?"
*Peter* "No...It's...I've never told anyone before..."
*Willow* "Don't worry, I promise I won't tell anyone."
*Peter* "Well...you know I used to spend night's at Luke's place
 a lot...one morning she walked in on me in the bathroom..."
*Willow* "Uh..huh..."

*Peter* "Her eyes immediately dropped to my dick..."
*Willow smirks* "Can you blame a girl?..."
*Peter continues* Yeah well...instead of profusely apologizing for barging in she says
'You know I can teach you how to use that..'  then closes the door."
Willow laughs, what he just said sounds exactly like 
something a woman like Cynthia would say.
*Willow laughs* "Oh! Wow! You think she barged in on purpose?..."
*Peter with seriousness* "No, but she purposely did shit afterwards to get my attention,
when Luke was not looking of course....."
*Willow* "Naturally....She wore you down didn't she?..."

*Peter* "Babe, she made it fucking nearly impossible to not get sprung..."
*Willow* "I'm sure she did...So what happened next?"
*Peter* "About a week goes by of her teasing the shit out of me. So, I know that following
 Monday she would be home alone. Luke had to do some community service shit
for getting caught with a few joints in his pocket...Stupid shit...anyways...I get there and act like I forgot Luke wasn't home, and well she grabs my hand tells me to come inside he'll be home soon...And you, well you know what happened next..."
*Willow* "So that's the day little Peter was born?..."
Peter laughs at her comment and lightens up. He feels better now telling her about it. It takes their connection deeper and has helped Peter to trust her even more. Not because she has ever given him reason not to but because he grew up not being able to tell his parents anything, especially his Father.  But all that is another story. Peter is not ready to tell that one....
Oh! And of course Peter is more than 20 minutes 
late for work that night, lol!

The End!...
Thanks so much for tuning in!
Looks like Peter and Willow are gonna be just fine. These
 two definitely have a deeper bond now.
Next week we will check in on Shaun and Amari.
