"Stop!" Peter said moving away from her.

"Hey, what's the matter? " she asked still panting.

"I cant do this anymore. I'm sorry" he said moving backwards.

"What are you talking about?" She asked halfly annoyed as he cleaned his mouth with his palm.

"I said I can't do this anymore. I'm sorry" he said as he ran out of the basement.

"Peter!" She screamed his name but he wouldn't listen.

He ran to her room to take his phone and shirt and wore it. He stared at his erection and found out it was still there. He swallowed hard and stared at his phone, seeing 3 messages from Elena and Laura.

After reading them, he stormed out of the room and climbed the staircase down, reaching the living room, he met Mrs. Woods who was just returning from wherever she went to.

She stared at a confused and sweating Peter as her eyes darted to his erection.

"Good day ma'am, I was just leaving" he said and without allowing her to reply, he ran out of the house.

Leaving a dumbfounded Mrs. Woods stare at the door he just pass through.

Sophia climbed upstairs from the basement and got to the living room, meeting the gaze of her mom, she stopped.

"Seriously now, Sophia?" Her mom said as she clenched her fist and ran to her room while yelling.

"You're no better than me!"

Peter got to Alex's house and found the crew sitting in the living room.

"I'm so sorry guys for not being around" he said sitting on the couch.

"Yeah, whatever, just hope you used a dinger " Alex said making Peter scoff.

"Would you stop it already? I didn't have sex with her this time around" he said before resting his back on the sofa.

"We called Bonnie, She said she doesn't wanna talk to anyone. So we were hoping--"

"I don't think she'll listen to me too. She's mad at me" Peter said cutting Elena's speech.

"Why? What did you do?" Laura asked him as he breathed down.

'She heard our conversation the last time we talked about I and Sophia" he stated. (written by Naomi Innocent)

"Hmm, that's why she left to cool off huh?" Elena said unbelievably.

"Laura, I think I really need to visit your grandpa and ask who Bonnie really is. She ain't behaving like a child at all" Alex complained.

"Stop making a fuss out of this ok? Bonnie is just a smart sweet little girl. She's just attached to Peter that's all. Remember she's been with just you and Peter right from when she was born?" Elena asked as Alex shrugged.

(Yeah whatever, I'll still ask Grandpa Ethan about her. He might know something) he thought.

"So Peter, you made her go away, you have to bring her back" Laura said standing up as she walked to the basement.

"How many days do we have before the homicide occur?" He asked as Elena stood up from the sofa.

"It's happening tomorrow, so you better be fast to coax her to come" she said before walking to the basement too.

"You've got this dude" Alex said patting his back.

"Where's she?" He asked.

"At Fay's, maybe Fay would help you coerce her" Alex said before standing up and walking away.

Peter alighted from the cab outside Fay's apartment, holding the ice cream and rose flower.

"I hope this works" he muttered to himself and walked to the apartment.

He knocked on the door as Fay opened it as if she was expecting him.

She got shocked and turned to face Bonnie at her back who was sitting on a sofa while staring at the TV.

She swallowed hard and return her gaze, resting it on Peter.

"Don't look at me weirdly, I can smell his cologne from miles away. Yh, that's how much I love and know about him" Bonnie said from the living room as Fay swallowed hard in shock again.

"What is it?" Peter asked a confused Fay who smiled nervously.

"Oh, nothing. It's just Bonnie. She asked me to open the door that you are here. I'm just perplexed because it's actually true" she explained.

"Can I see her?" He asked as Fay shook her head.

"Nope, she said she doesn't wanna see anyone today, especially you" Fay stated.

"And why is that? I just wanna tell her I'm sorry" Peter stated.

"Bonnie, can you hear me? I said I'm sorry" he said to her hearing but she blocked her ears with her fingers.

"I think it's best you go and come back tomorrow in the morning. She doesn't wanna see anyone today" Fay told him as he bowed his head.

"Ok then, tell her I'll be back first thing in the morning" he said as he made to leave.

"Tell him he can drop the ice cream and flowers" Bonnie said from inside making Fay giggle.

"She said you can drop the ice cream and roses before leaving" She said.

"Oh, of course" Peter said handling it over to Fay who took it from him.

"Bye Peter. Send my regards to Alex" She said.

"Yh sure, and please, help me talk to her too" Peter said.

"Sure, I'll do just that" she said as Peter nodded before walking away as she banged the door.

"Seriously Bonnie?" Fay said to her as she glanced at one of Fay's little cousin who was eating the TV remote.

"She's gonna eat that" Bonnie said before walking away to the room she share with Fay's 11 years old cousin.

*.

# What do you mean she refused seeing you?" Laura said from the phone.

# I don't know, I guess she's really pissed, but I'll make sure I report back, early tomorrow" Peter said standing under the sun waiting for a taxi to pass by.

#"Yh you should. We have just tomorrow" Laura said as she ended the call.

He felt so frustrated as he dropped his hands on his waist as the sun dealt with him.

A taxi stopped before him as he entered inside looking really frustrated.

(Skip to the next day)

The next day, Peter reported back to Fay's house as he knocked on the door again. This time, Bonnie opened it.

"Hey Bonnie" he said smiling as she huffed.

"Get in before I change my mind and send you away" she said as he hurriedly entered the house then she closed the door.

"Hello" Peter said to Fay's aunt who was seated on a couch as she stitched a dress.

"Oh hello dear. You must be our Bonnie's Peter, she has said a lot about you" Fay's aunt said leaving Peter dumbfounded.

"Oh" that was all he could say.

"Hi Peter " Fay waved at him from the kitchen as he waved back.

"Come in" Bonnie said taking his hand as they both walked to the room she share with Fay's cousin.

She sat on the bed as Peter sat beside her.

"Here, I bought this for you" he said handling her a mini bag as she took it. Opening it, she saw a complete set of make up.

"Are you trying to bribe me to do something or what?" She folded her arms and gave him a suspicious glare.

"No no, of course not" he said sweating nervously while waving his fingers.

"That's it, you're lying. You always sweat when you lie" Bonnie said as he wondered what other secret thing she knows about him.

"Anyways, thanks for the ice cream and the roses yesterday. And for the roses, Fay's little cousin ate it" she said as she and Peter burst into laughter.

He realize how free and happy he was around her as he stared at her. He remove the strainds of hair from her face as he saw how beautiful her blue eyes were.

"I'm sorry Bonnie. For making you cry. I have been so stupid and nonchalant. Please give me a second chance to make things right" He said as Bonnie frowned and before she could say Holly Molly, he pressed his lips against her, kissing her as she reciprocated.

Peter never expected her to reciprocate so he pushed her away immediately she did that.

"Who taught you how to do that?" He asked perplexd as she rolled her eyes.

"I watch movies you know? Just shut up and kiss me!" Bonnie said and jumped on him as they both laughed and played on the bed.
