Her hand that was holding his locked into his fingers, his words melted her heart like ice cream in the sun. She was his hero, something she would have never expected.

Her face turned bright red as he said called her his hero. “Funny how you are my motivation to do good and I am yours.” A small laugh left her as she shook her head slightly, a large smile crept across her full lips. “You keep doing what you’re doing Peter; I believe in you, I trust you and I l…”

Aunt May nearly dropped the groceries seeing the two together. “Oh Lexi!” She said quickly as she pulled Lexi from the sitting position and yanked her into a hug, Lexi wincing as the woman hugged her tightly, “You should have listened to Peter and stayed here. How could you do something so foolish? Why would you risk yourself? Did you really think…”

The old lady stared at her, not really understanding what Lexi meant by that, but her words weren’t meant for Aunt May, they were for Peter. “Well, alright then.” Feeling as though their conversation was done, “well I’m going to make some lunch. Are you staying for lunch?”

“Yes, yes of course.” She said with a smile as the woman disappeared into the kitchen. She turned her attention to Peter, giving him goofy smile before pointing in the direction of Aunt May. “That woman has horrible good timing in interrupting moments.”
