Author's Note: Happy Father's Day ya'll. This takes place in the Pretend universe.
Peter kicked a pebble into the air as his brother Daniel counted their spare change. "Five dollars…" Daniel sighed. "We only have five dollars."
Peter buried his hands into his jean pockets. " I can't find anything else either."
"How are we gonna get two gifts with five dollars?"
"We can just do a card. "
"No that's too lazy, Pete."
"We really shouldn't have waited until the day before father's day."
"This is what we get for getting to skip mother's day."
The next morning, Daniel was the first one to wake up. He went over to Peter's bed and clapped his hands together right above Peter's ears. "WAKE UP." He was met with snoring. Daniel walked a few steps backwards, rolling up his sleeves. He grabbed a pillow from his bed. Daniel leaped on top of Peter and attacked him with the pillow. Peter flailed his arms before snatching the pillow out of Daniel's hands.
" What was that for?" Peter growled. He tossed the pillow onto the ground and rubbed the sleep out of his eyes.
"I need your help."
"With what?"
"Making breakfast."
Peter rolled out of bed. "So that's our gift." Daniel nodded. Peter and Daniel made their way into the kitchen. Peter turned on the stove while Daniel grabbed the egg carton and bread. "How does Dad like his eggs?" Peter asked.
Daniel shrugged. "Which one are we talking about. The one I call Dad but you call Daddy or the one you call Dad but I call Papa."
"Both." Peter cracked an egg over the pan.
"Dad likes hard boiled and for Papa, over easy." Daniel put two slices of bread into the toaster.
"And how exactly do we make either of those." Peter cracked two more eggs.
"I don't know. I'll go look it up."
Flash forward to later in the morning, Peter and Daniel's dads were extinguishing the kitchen fire after placing their sons in. "Next time, wake one of us up."
Peter and Daniel nodded simultaneously. "Happy father's day."
"And we love you." Daniel added on.
