who could ever leave me darling (but who could stay)
Saying yes to the date with MJ was one of the best decisions Penny has ever made, and that was saying a lot. Actually, no it wasn't, but Penny was pretty freaking happy at the moment because she had a stable place to stay, a girlfriend, and great friends.
Ned, Harry, and MJ also convinced her to go to therapy, and in a way, Penny was healing from everything. It was now almost the end of March, and Penny was ok with everything that was going on in her life.
Everyone got accepted into the preferred colleges with scholarships, grants, and loans. Penny knew her friends were going to get in, which was exceedingly likely. The life Penny thought she wasn’t ever going to get was a life that was actually happening. She even branched out from being a solo spider and started working with all the other New York vigilantes.
It was honestly wild to be able to work with Matt Murdoch, the powerful Daredevil, who was known for having blood dripping off his fingers. Penny just saw him as a massive softy and jokingly called him “devil-dad” to his ire. While Foggy and Karen always teased Matt for the nickname,
Working with Deadpool was an interesting experience, and the dude was wacky with a capital W, but he was the sweetest person that Penny knew in his own macabre way. They usually got chimichangas on Thursdays after doing illegal vigilante shit that the Avengers didn’t care about. Penny also knew his identity, which was Wade Wilson, and Penny found his face pretty wicked in her own terms.
Sometimes she would team up with the two, and newspapers would call them “team red,” either from the trail of broken bodies and blood they left behind or from the fact that there uniform was red. Matt said it was the first, but Penny and Wade voted on the second, so democracy ruled. Screw you, murdock. (That was wade.)
Penny was lying in bed doing her nightly calls with Morgan and she was content, “Hey Morgan,” Penny smiled at her little sister”
“Penny” Morgan squealed excitedly
"Alright, tell me the hot gossip.” Penny spoke conspiratly to her because Morgan loved it, even though Penny found it cringeworthy. But hey, anything for her sister
So Penny was taken on a world-wind adventure with words though morgan’s life, with how “Mrs.Spencer taught Morgan about the different places in the world and how Benny stole the last juicebox when it wasn’t even his and it was for Marianne so Morgan rectified the mistake by giving Marianne her juicebox and telling Mrs.Spencer what Morgan did.”
She actually did say the story like that in rushed sentences, and Penny marveled at how fast the girl can speak, like she needs that energy.
The brown-eyed girl took a deep breath to continue while Penny giggled, "Morgs, calm down I’m here all night or well until your bedtime. Slow down, darling.”
Morgan nodded and spoke a little bit slower, “After I told Mrs. Spencer, she gave me another juicebox and Benny got in trouble and got put in the yellow square.”
Penny theatrically gasped, “So are you friends with Marianne now?”
Morgan nodded seriously, “She was a meanie before but she doesn’t like mary and grace anymore because they didn’t say anything and I did.”
Penny hummed in agreement, “Look at you making more friends.”
Morgan smiled all shy and Penny looked at the time and said, “Darling it’s almost 9:00 pm and that means bedtime for you little miss.”
Morgan groaned, “But I want to talk, mooree”
Penny huffed in amusement, “Darling we talk like everdayyy”
Morgan pouted, “Can’t you come here?"
Penny paused for a moment and shrugged her shoulders, “If mommy is ok with it, sure, i’ll come over.”
That was something huge for Penny, because she didn’t feel the hatred and deep depression over her father anymore. She made tentative peace with and didn’t see the point to putting her life on hold for someone who never wanted to stop for her.
Morgan was Penny’s sister, and she was going to see her. Besides, Penny could just ignore Tony and move on with life.
"Ok, bye darling, call you later,” Penny continued knowing Morgan would try to squeeze another story past her, but Penny knew her tricks after calling her for a while.
“Promise you’ll come,” Morgan demanded
“Cross my heart, Morgan,” Penny stated
Morgan knew Penny was being serious with the fact she used her name instead of a cheesy nickname that made Morgan’s chest feel all warm and gooey, “K bye I love you 5000”
Penny said back, smiling, “I love you, 5000.”
The call ended with a quiet beep, and Penny sighed tiredly but was content all the same because she had an amazing relationship with her little sister, her love life was going great, and her friendships were stronger than ever, even with spider-woman in the equation. The only blip in her radar was her dad and that was something she thought was ever going to go away.
Penny scorrled though her contacts to call Pepper because she wasn’t breaking a promis to Morgan.
She clicked on the name, “Pepper” and hit call without a second thought.
It took two rings and Pepper picked up promptly, “Hey penny”
Penny sighed, “Hey pepper, I have a long weekend coming up, can I come to the lakehouse”.
Going straight the point seemed better than just beating around the bush so she was just going to go for it.
Pepper paused for a second in shocked silence, “ Yeah if you want to come you could but Tony’s going to be here”
Pepper knew of the tenuous relationship Penny had with her father and it was one of the many regrets she’s had for not trying to do something. Penny sighed louder, “Don’t worry about it Pepper besides i’m coming for Morgan since she’s asked me like ten times, the next time I feel like she’s kidnapping me”
Pepper laughed, “Yeah that’s morgan, but you could come and we could arrange a day to do something, it’s a small town but there’s still some things we could do”
Penny grinned, “Yeah ok bye”
After the call ended Penny lay on her bed tracing the stars that she put up there lazily with a haze of sleep falling her. She got up shook her head and went to put her spider-suit on because she got patrol to do and not sleep.
Harry was at some company meeting that was apparently going to go for an another hour. How did Penny knew? Harry sent constant updates everytime someone did something dumb. So far Harry has begged for some supernatural or super villain disaster about 20 times. Penny counted.
Ned was currently on a hacking binge and no Penny did not want to know more and MJ was working on an essay so Penny was alone for patrol which was pretty rare since her girlfriend and her other two friends were needlessly overprotective. They said something like how she had no self-preservation while Penny thought she had just enough self-preservation.
It was an ongoing argument to her amusement and annoyance
After she got the suit on Penny made sure everything was working out of habit, crawled out of her window which was thankfully facing a dead end and no cameras.
Harry and Ned checked.
She swung to the next building with the cold yet crisp New York air filling her lungs. A smile tugged on her lips as she felt her thoughts go numb.
Penny kept and eye out for screams and when she heard them she swung there and kicked some ass. Now she was crocched at the tallest building in New York overlooking the skyline. It was breathtaking to just be sitting here and breathing. The ambience of New York seemed to pass on swiftly as Penny kind of just kept with the flow.
“Message from Harry” Karen’s voice blared into her ear and was read outloud
“Penny please please please save me, I think i’m start too count each and every strand of hair at the moment, we’re at count number 255 I’m going insane”
“End message”
Penny couldn’t help but cackle as she could feel the desperation though her best friends voice as he begged for freedom.
She slowly fell backward and shot out a web with a the message, “Karen pleae send Harry the message, “Alright i’m coming, calm down you big baby, if your bad right now I wonder how horrible your going to be when you actually become ceo”
“Message sent”
In about 20 minutes Hadi was back at her room and staring at her closet distastefully. She hadn’t dressed up formally in while and now she was going to be and she didn’t want to but Harry was freaking whiny when he wanted to be and she wasn’t going to hear the end of it for days.
So she sucked it up and pulled out awhile button down shirt with black pants and a black blazer. After showering and blowdrying her curly hair she changed into the clothes and frowned when she noticed they were a little looser than before which Penny assumed was the stress of everything else and all that.
After brushing her hair and putting it in a ponytail Penny shot off a text to MJ that she was going to be with Harry and tugged on a pair of high heels. She unfortunately got used to them as was able to walk with them but they were so irritating to wear but what could she do.
Penny called and uber from her phone and waited while scrolling though her instagram bored and disinterested.
Once she was in the car Penny’s phone started ringing with Harry’s contact flashing
“Dude i’m going right now”
Harry exhaled dramatically, “Oh thank god I was about to beg on my knees”
Penny snorted, “It can’t be that boring”
Harry sighed louder, “I would rather watch paint peel, it would be more exciting too”
Penny shook her head mockingly, “Aww poor Mr.Ceo has to work, wah wah wah”
Harry groaned, “Who though this was a great idea honestly”
After ending the call it took about 30 minutes to reach the place Harry had his whatever he was doing in. The place looked large and opulent and generally uninviting. No wonder Harry did not want to be here.
Her heels clicked ominous against the marble floor as she kept walking to the room Harry said he was in. Penny didn’t really question the fact about why she was here just that Harry needed her before he did something dumb.
She opened the door quietly and it was sort of a lecture hall based meeting with a presenter and everything. Penny assumed it was something technology or biology based but she didn’t really pay attention to the blurb Harry sent out. She scanned the hall looking for his wild curly and saw him in the far left corner doodling.
“Hey” She whispered after walking over there quietly
Penny sat down in the seat next too him and Harry whispered in her ear, “There’s two more hours left of this and I can not leave”
She squeaked, “Two more hours, Harry you’ve been here since 8 in the morning”
Harry turned too her with deadened eyes, “Exactly”
Penny softly whispered back, Why didn’t you bring your laptop or use your phone”
Harry exhaled, “I forgot my laptop and my phone is dying”
Penny smirked, “Well I got the charger”
“Oh my god I love you, whatever would I do with you”
“Probably perish”
“Oh hahah really funny i’m dying with laughter”
“Guess you don’t need it then”
“Wait wait no I was joking Penny please your the funniest person alive”
The two continued to tease each other as the minutes slowly slipped away from between the two of them. When they got together they usually just gossiped with one another or talked shit about their parents. Penny liked to call it “quality bonding time”
She also liked to inquire about Harry’s love life and she had an inkling about who he had a crush on but wasn’t going to say anything because Harry could get touchy about his feeling which was fair so she was stepping away from that minefield.
The she heard a familiar voice and lo behold her father was standing there on the podium speaking to everyone else. He looked the same actually with just more grey hair the same beard and all that.
Penny averted her eyes and conutued watching the cooking video Harry had set up. He still had hope that he would be a decent chef so she was giving commentary and they were going back and forth.
“You will burn down the kitchen if you make that”
“I would not excuse me”
“Harry honey remember that beef roast”
“That was a fluke”
“Harry you burned the pasta to a crisp while it was still boiling”
“How was I supposed to know that you were supposed to take it out after a certain hour”
“Let’s use our big boy brains and open that expensive phone and maybe google a little bunbun”
“I hate you”
“Get in line”
The two went back and forth with each other and time seemed to go slightly faster when the everything else was finally finished and the two got up from the seats monaing and groaning.
“I am never doing this again” Penny grumbled
Harry pouted mockingly, “But I thought you love me”
Penny groused, “And i’m still not doing this again”
She was about to complain even more when she hear someone very familiar clear their throat, and Harry and Penny slowly turned around like two kids who got caught with their hand in the cookie jar.
Harry broke the silence awkwardly clearing his throat while saying, “Hi Mr.Stark”
Penny just made eye contact and spoke curtly, “Dad”
Tony smiled awkwardly, “Penny how are you?”
“Fine”
“Pepper told me you were going to visit”
“Yeah I’m going to”
The conversation once again was an awkward lull, with Harry breaking it once again, “Right so me and Penny have to go but nice meeting you”
Harry lightly grabbed Penny’s arm and they both briskly walked away with an incline of Penny’s head as too say goodbye.
Penny frantically whispered to him, “I didn’t know he was going to be there”
“I’m sorry I didn’t exactly look through every list”
“Aren’y you supposed to be a ceo or something”
“That’s my assistants job”
And so on and so forth before they were standing outside with Penny’s stomach and growling. Harry looked voer to her with an amused smile
“Hungry?”
“Oh shut up”
“I’m just asking” Harry laughed as the two walked over to the nearest cafe that sold pizza among other things.
After eatin gtheir body weight in all things greasy and totally not good for them they left the store with night already befallen and Penny felt the chill but ignored it.It was almost spring but sometimes New York weather was a little unpredictable and the chill could really get to you.
Harry ordered another uber and soon they were siting there quietly nodding alon gto the ambivalent music in the car.
Who knew the driver was really into lofi tracks which was a vibe in Penny’s opinion.
Once the finally reached home all Penny wanted to do was take a quick nap and than get ready for patrolling which was great and all but Penny wasn’t feeling it at the moment”
A whisper of, “With great power comes great responsibility” filtered though her head and Penny hardened her resolve.
Once they got in the thankfully warmed penthouse Penny called outloud, “Oh honey we’re hooome”
Ned responded back, “In the kitchen”
Harry chortled, “I swear we live in this kitchen”
The brown eyed girl sniggered, “Your not wrong, it’s basically the living room at this point”
They walked to the kitchen and saw Ned at the kitchen table typing away while MJ leaned against the stove top reading a book.
Harry awed dramaticall, “Were you waiting for us”
MJ deadpanned, “No I was hungry”
Harry continued to try irritate MJ because that man has a death wish while Penny looked over Ned’s shouldure commenting on different things he could fix to easily code.
MJ and Harry continued to bicker and Penny felt content just being there with her friends.
Penny yawned and looked at the time realizing it was time for her to go be spider-woman. She ran a hand though her hair and called out, “I got patrol to do”
Ned shut his laptop, “I’m on com’s”
Harry and MJ groaned while ned cackled, “You snooze you lose fuckers”
Penny shook hear amused at how childish her friends were acting and pressed the button on her nanonite suit. She put her ponytail in a bun as the suit slowly fit her body. SHe did the customary webshooter checks and the other suit checks because her friends were worry warts.
Harry clicked on a button too open the windows while Penny flung herself out hearing the wild call of New York and she grinned brightly.
~/~./~/~/~/~/~/~/~/
“Oh my god” Penny groaned head firmly on MJ’s shoulder
MJ rubbed her back softly while Claire was pulling the bullet our of her leg.
“I hate this so much”
No matter how many times Penny got shot the pain never really went away. Yes she got used to it but it was still annoying and she was here groaning at how much it hurt. After an agonizing 10 minutes later the wound was patched up and she could finally leave.
MJ mumbled in her ear, “You have got to be careful”
Penny nodded, “I do try”
“Did you remember that you’re going too see morgan tomorrow”
“Wait that was tomorrow?”
Michelle just laughed against her lovely self-sacrifical girlfriend, “Only you Pen’
After getting the rest of her wounds tended too Penny got up as well as MJ.
“Alright Claire I got to go” Penny smiled gratefully at her
Claire grinnined teasingly, “Alright but no mre bullet holes penny please”
“Stab wounds are easier”
MJ cleared her throat sarcastically, “How about no wounds”
Penny gasped, “Why dearest you ask of the impossible”
Mj just laughed and they said their goodbyes to claire and left. While walking in the dark Penny swung her and MJ’s hand back and forth with an innocent expression on her face, “So date night”
MJ thought for a moment and then stated, “Yeah sure what the hell why not”
They both were silent for moment, “We should probably pick a place” Penny mentioned
“Yeah we should”
The both of them thought harder, “Wanna just go home”
“Hell yeah, Ned’s making his famous brownies and Harry would definitely eat them all”
So that’s what they spent the night doing at the penthouse eating brownies and watching bad reality tv because Harry won rock paper and scissors because of course he did.
Now she was curled with her girlfriend in her bedroom just talking to each other about their hopes dreams and the future because that’s how cheesy they were now. MJ was braiding Penny’s hair while penny was just lying there happy as can be.
“Penny, are you ready to face your father again” MJ asked
“I mean I have seen him before multiple times” Penny responded quietly
MJ countered, “but not by yourself in an enclosed space”
Penny didn’t know what to say too that because she was right it would’ve been a while since she was near her father in conversational way so it was going to be weird.
“I’m going there for Morgan not for my dad” Penny retorted not knowing what else to say
MJ just hummed and Penny tried to shake away the gloomy mood, “But it’s going to be fun and hopefully won’t suck that much”
///`//`//`/`//`///
Penny wanted to kill herself because in what world did she think doing a solo 14 hour road trip to Georgia was a great idea because it wasn’t.
“Looks like it’s time for some soul searching” Penn told herself sarcastically
MJ Ned and Harry didn’t know she was going there in a car and has assumed rightfully that she was going to be taking a flight there. Penny didn’t tell them that she was too lazy too book flights there and now she was stuck doing this for her darling sister.
“I can’t even blame them or Morgan because I decided too this” She thought to herself annoyed
“Well I made my bed and now i’ll lie in it”
It was currently spring break and Penny had an entire week so she thought it would be a good idea. Penny thought she was definitely high when she came up with that.
Time for the road trip of her lifetime
Well it would be the road trip of a life time if she wasn’t stuck in traffic bored out of her damn mind but at least the music was good.
Penny thunked her head against the steering wheel and the loud beep meshed well with the others car in harmony.
``//```//`/`/`/`//`/`
Being stuck in a car for 14 hours was actually turning out to be not that bad because Penny dare she say it was actually starting to have fun. She was able to blast her music for as long as possible and when she wanted too eat she just googled a place and went to go eat there. Her suitcase was packed and everything she needed and was trying out different hotels.
If she got lonely she would call up either of her friends and yes they now knew that she was doing a 14 hour road trip.
Penny’s ears were still ringing from the ensuing lecture but she was used too it. Right now she was In South Carolina looking at the stars because they were so pretty. She never really had time to just sit there always rushing from one place to the next so this was amazing in her opinion.
She hummed “cruel summer” underneath her breath and thought of a brilliant idea. Penny has been a fan of Taylor Swift since she was a little girl and the singer was currently on a worldtour at the moment.
Penny consimmerrated for a minute, Why not buy tickets and too her show in the United Kingdom because why not. She made a note in her phone to get those tickets or whatever was open because ticket master was a btich sometimes and got back in her car.
They were do for some crazy concert screaming
Once she was in her car Penny turned put on her mixed music playlist because she didn’t feel like separating her songs. So they were just in random playlists except for Taylor Swift’s, all her songs were in one playlist when she was in the mood to listen to blondie.
Penny change her mind and clicked on the mixed option for different song on Taylor’s playlists or well her playlists with taylor swift.
The first song that came on was ME!, which was a bop in Penny’s opinion. She loved every single version of this song because in a way it represented her.
The opening lines blared though her car
“I promise that you'll never find another like me
I know that I'm a handful, baby, uh
I know I never think before I jump”
And with Penny was ready to end this roadtrip with her head bopping to the beat of the song. She never understood the hate that Taylor Swift got for this song because it had everything she had ever wanted and well it always cheered her up in some ways.
Her favorite album was definitely Repuatation with no questions asked but she held the album Lover close to her chest as well as 1989.
So there Penny sat screaming the song lyrics because she could and she can.
`.///`,///`,///`,///
Even though Penny was used to not sleeping for a long period of time her eyes were burning with exhaustion. She looked at her GPS and rubbed her eyes as she pulled in a Starbucks with her latte that had a concerning amount of caffeine in it.
“Only 20 more minutes” Penny thought to herself
“Archer” was playing and the lyric “who could ever leave me darling but who could stay” was giving her mentel illness and still gave her mental illness.
Penny tapped her fingers along too the beat and belted out the lyrics to “Fearless”. And soon she was there standing in front of the lake house with her suitcase in hand. She ran a head through her head and texted pepper that she was here and there she was meeting her.
“Penny!” Morgan shouted excitedly and rant towards barreling in her arms
She laughed and spun Morgan around with her around wrapped securely on her wist, “Morgan!”
Pepper was behind her with a grin on her face, “So you drove”
Penny snorted, “It was an adventure that’s for sure”
At this point Morgan was clutching to her hand as the three of them walked in the house and it looked the sameas the last time Penny left.
The home was all homie fit for a family of three and had toys scattered and other things like her dad’s tools and Pepper’s paperwork. It looked soft and familiar in a way and even though Penny didn’t want to be here she could help but smile at the scene. She however had to ask a burning question, “Where’s Dad”
Morgan answered, “Oh daddy’s at a very important meeting”
Penny nodded sagely, “It must be long”
Pepper sighed, “It’s a Stark Industry thing, we’re thinking about moving back to New York so we don’t have to travel so often”
Penny turned and inquiring at her, “What do you mean by that?”
“Well the five years when you guys were well gone Stark industries have been dealing and all that but with the new influx of people means more things to think about and it’s a whole thing” Pepper mumbled back distracted
Penny thought outloud, “Well than”
Morgan’s patience already had worn out, “Penny come play with me”
Penny just laughed, “Alright, alright darling let’s go”
So Morgan pulled her along rambling excited that her big sister was there and the new drama that happened.
“Marianne doesn’t want to be my friend anymore because she likes mary and grace again since they said sorry to her but then benny said sorry to me”
Penny was invested, “So did you accept Benny’s apology”
“Yeah i did because mommy told me that saying sorry is good but i don’t like marianne anymore since she don’t wanna like me” Morgan spoke pouting
Penny giggled, “You accepted because you were petty”
Morgan huffed, “Well that’s mariannes fault for going back to mary and grace, but benny isn’t that much of a meanie anymore”
Penny nodded along sagely, “You both got issues with marianne”
Morgan dramatically rolled her eyes, “Ugh marianne”
Penny snickered louder, “Oh morgan”
Morgan interjected, “Anyways it’s tea party time”
Penny sighed, “Yeah sure where do I sit”
Morgan pointed at a stuffed cupcake, “Next to Annie”
She walked over to the little plastic chair and sat down uncomfortable but not saying it, “How are you Miss.Annie?”
Penny was absolutely exhausted and wanted to sleep but the caffeine kept her up thankfully and played with Morgan for the next two hours and Pepper called for dinner to Penny’s relief because she was getting hungry.
“Alright mo dinner time” Penny spoke up and offered her hand toward Morgan to stand her up.
Instead Morgan did the upwards motion to pick her up and Penny just rolled her eyes amused and pulled her up on her waist easily. It wasn’t like it was hard and Penny had picked up heavier running on 30 hours of sleep so this was piece of cake.
They walked to the kitchen with Morgan rambling in her ears about the stuffed animal drama she had going which was worse than the kindergarten drama.
Penny was getting into it when Morgan talked about how Mr.Cuddlestun was being a total poopiehead to Jaypuff the squid. It could also be the sleep deprivation talking but this was keeping her from not sleeping so she was going to take it.
Pepper had made, Mac and Cheese with mashed potatoes and french fries. It was an interesting array of options but Penny wasn’t picky and loved all three of those options along with Morgan so the two started to feast while Pepper was eating her healthy mom salad ™ .
Penny could swear she saw a lot of people especially older woman eat that but didn’t get the appeal.
She had put Morgan down on the chair next to her and the three ate food quietly while Morgan interjected with a comment or two, focused on the food infront of her. Penny was trying to hude her yawns but Pepper definitely noticed. The only reason why she left Penny play with Morgan was because of the ensuing tantrum that would happen if she said no.
“Alright Penny bed time” Pepper stated looking at her clock
“What mommy” Morgan immediately began to whine
“No morgan you sister came from a long drive and still played with you, she needs to sleep” Pepper firmly spoke
Penny wanted to deny it but she genuinely felt like she was about to pass out but nodded in agreement, “Sorry Mo i’ll play with you more tommorrow”
Morgan whined some more but Pepper was firm in her decision and Penny went to her supposed bedroom, got changed with her eyes half opened and basically zone throughout her shower and tugged on pair of sweats she stole from Harry and a shirt she stole from MJ. Her hair was wet and she needed to dry it but Penny could not care less at the moment.
All she did was mumble, “Lights out Fri”
And fell face down on her bed and tugged her covers up to her body.
In about 30 seconds she fell into blissful oblivion and a tired smile painted on her lips
Maybe it wasn’t that bad to visit again.
``//`/`/`/`/`//`/`///`/`/`
The next time Penny woke up again the sun was shining in her face as her blinds were open. She didn’t feel as exhausted as before and well she felt great.
Her stomach growled ominously
…
And hungry because of course she was and that’s what got her up from her bed while she walked in her bathroom after pulling a pair of jeans and a shirt out. Soon she did her bathroom duty as well as another shower because she felt sweaty and icky for some reason.
She stretched as she looked at the time, It was about 11 in the morning and she fell asleep at around 7 pm.
“17 hours of sleep” Penny remarked surprised
After getting her hair situated Penny walked towards the kitchen where she heard Morgan laughing loudly while her dad talked animatedly to her.
Penny wanted to slow down because her dad was there but she powered on because it was going to be fine and Pepper was there too.
“Good morning Mo” Penny announced her presence as she walked though the door
“Penny!” Morgan squealed running into her arms yet again
Penny giggled, “Always so excited to see me”
Morgan answered matter of factly, “It’s because I missed you”
Penny cooed, “Aww Morgann”
Morgan blushed and took Penny’s hand and pushed her too an empty seat that was of course by her dad that Penny was so desperately trying to ignore making eye contact or talking with because of course that would happen.
Penny wanted to throw a tantrum too and sank down in her seat and at the same time Pepper came in with pancakes that were slathered in syrup and caramel syrup as well as whip cream. Tose were definitely for her because of the stack and how much sugar that was on there.
The curly haired girl blushed embarrassed, “Pepper you didn’t have to do that, I could east cereal”
Pepper sniffed dramatic, “Never, your a guest and I know you love these pancakes so i’ll make them”
Penny couldn’t help but feel touched and murmured, “Thanks Pepper”
Pepper rubbed her shoulders, “No problem Pen”
So maybe it wasn’t always this bad but the problem sitting two feet away from her was showing that it was a little bad.
