Peter walked up to the mansion where he knew that Maddie lived slowly, nervously glancing around himself constantly. When he got up to the door, he raised his hand to knock at it, then turned around and started to walk away. Half way down the drive he groaned and turned back around, walking back up to the house, where he did the same thing. After repeating this process three more times, he finally knocked on the door.

"God, can no on answer the door?" I mumble into the couch, getting up and making my way over.
"What?" I mutter, pulling it open.

"Hey, Maddie." Peter said softly.

I glance up, then back down."Hey."

"I - I was wondering if we could talk?" he asked, unsure of what to say.

I nod, still not looking at him, opening the door so he could come in.

Peter gave her a small smile, then went into her house. "I want us to be friends again, Maddie." he said softly, figuring it would probably be best to get right to the point.

I nod, brushing my hair back over my shoulder."That's what you came here for?"

"And to say I'm sorry. For being a dick and a jerk and a manwhore and whatever else you want to call me, it's probably true. I'm pretty sure I've apologized to everyone else, but I don't think I have yet to you."

"No, you haven't." I say, hands jammed into my pocekts."But you have now."

Peter sighed. "I am sorry." he said softly.

"I know." I say quietly,"I know."

Peter looked at Maddie with concern. "Are you okay?" he asked, just as quietly.

"Yeah, fucking perfect." I say sarcastically then stop, knowing it wasn't fiar to take my anger out on him,"No, sorry. Bad week."

Peter offered her a weak smile. "Yeah? Do you want to talk?"

"No, not really. Had enough talking to last me a lifetime."

"Cool. Then I guess I- well, um, I-" Peter sighed. "Were you friends with Molly?" he asked her.

"I don't want to talk about Molly." I mutter, a knot tighting in my stomach as he mentions her and Regulus's voice floats back into my head.

"So you know then?" he asked her, looking down.

I nod sliently, really not wanting to talk about it.

Peter nodded, grateful that he didn't have to tell another.

"So, how you been lately?" I ask, for the sake of saying something.

Peter smiled slightly. "Pretty good. Life's kind of crazy, what with four kids and another on the way and getting married, but still amazing."

"God, four kids? Total of five, I could never handle that."

Peter laughed. "Yeah, I know. I mean, well, I've got Bill and Charlie too, plus my twins and then Hannah's preggers, so..." he shrugged. "It's worth it."

I smile weakly,"Don't know if I could handle it, your a good dad Wormtail,"

Peter smiled. "Thanks Mads. I'm sure you'll be a great mum, too."

"Yeah, right. Can't even take care of myself, gonna be a horrible mum."

"Yeah, not here." I mutter,"I'm not..I'm not cut out for this whole 'mum' thing."
