Chapter Three Strange Couples


Peter walked the streets of Midtown, Manhattan waiting for his appointment with his doctor. He stopped feeling a presence staring at him watching him as he walked. What was happening? Was he just being paranoid? What if this wasn't real and he was being followed by a bad guy? Peter questions himself while looking over his shoulder waiting to find someone looking at him. He had been thinking someone was watching him since he had gotten out of the hospital but he dare not tell anyone knowing they would call him crazy and probably lock him up.

Peter then walks into the Company's building that in real life was a building full of businesses. He walked in seeing so many people rushing around trying to get their work done. He walked to the elevator going inside pushing the 15th floor button.

The doors opened to a doctor's clinic where the receptionist waved at Peter before he walked to the door of his doctors opening it seeing the man sitting in his chair reading the newspaper.

"Aw Peter glad to see you. Sit down now how have you been? Any more strange things happening to you lately?"

Peter shook his head not waiting to go into detail about how he swore someone had been following him. "No nothing out of the normal not remembering people the way they should be normal at least."

His doctor nodded now setting down his paper wiping his horn-rimmed glasses. "Now Peter what did I say. You're not crazy just because your brain waves crossed signals doesn't mean you are crazy. It just means you need to focus on remembering what your brain messed up."

Peter looked at him not sure if he wanted to believe him since the memory of little Noah he had been wondering about his whole life. It wasn't just the fact that Noah had asked about his scar well car it was everything. He remembered most of his childhood excluding Gabriel and Matt but he had missing parts of his life and didn't remember most of the people he cared about the most well he didn't remember them they way they were suppose to be.

"Peter." Peter looked at the doctor giving a small smile meaning he was sorry for not talking to him and thinking his thoughts.

"Tell me who did you pick to reconnect with his week?"

Peter smiled and sat down getting out the list his doctor had gave him to pick who he wanted to get to know again for their sessions. "Um I picked Matt and Niki."

"Aw you're oldest brother's best friend and his wife. Very good now tell me how that went."

Peter looked at him then to the list. Calling them a couple was strange in either reality. Matt Parkman in his mind was a guy with the power to read minds who had met his brother then himself. They weren't friends but they weren't enemies either. Niki Sanders had a weird relationship with Peter. He had met her as Nathan's hooker then in a future Peter traveled to she was his girlfriend. Matt and Niki had to be the strangest couple he had ever met.

"Calling them a couple would be an understatement."


Strange Couple

Peter stood in the foyer of Matt and Niki's apartment which was next to Peter's in the lower east side of New York. From what he knew Matt had been like a third brother to him since Matt's father was close with his parents before they had children. Matt was also Nathan's best friend and chief of Nathan's private service while also being a detective for the NYPD. Niki was Tracy's younger sister. Peter had thought Tracy was Niki since he only had Niki in his mind when he was in his coma. The two looked exactly alike but Tracy dyed her hair brown probably because she didn't want to look too much like her sister which Peter got he wanted to be known as himself and not only as Nathan's brother.

"Peter get in here I found the coffee." Matt shouted from the kitchen where he had been looking for the coffee Niki hid from him. "Niki hides everything of mine."

Peter walked into the kitchen sitting down as Matt poured him some coffee. "Thanks."

"No problem man I mean what you do for us coffee is nothing."

"Did you move my necklace?" Niki states coming out of their bedroom buttoning her shirt up eyeing Peter when she sees the coffee. "That stuff will kill you. You know."

"Geeze Nik we have company. Can't you dress in the room." Matt states as he goes into the bedroom. "For the last time your jewelry doesn't need to be on my tie rack."

Peter starts to chuckle as he sees Matt walk back out handing Niki her necklace then he starts to put on his tie as he rolls his eyes at her.

"Remind me to never get married." Peter states after seeing the bickering couple.

Niki looks at Matt grabbing the tie and fixing it on him right after chocking him for hiding her necklace. She then glares at Peter smirking. "Boy wonder did loose his marbles."

"Pete we aren't married." Matt states winking at him as he kisses Niki. "Thanks Nik." Matt says mockingly after she gets finished chocking him with his tie.

Niki looks at Matt pushing him away after his playful kiss. "We aren't even sleeping together." Niki states as she sits down fixing her high heels.

Peter looks at them confused. "But you guys have family pictures."

Matt sits down. "Raising kids as a single parent is hard enough let alone in New York. We decided to live together after well….."

"DL left." Niki cuts Matt off. "He owed a lot of money to the wrong people."

Peter nods. "DL your husband so Matt you adopted Molly?"

Matt shakes his head. "No she mine fresh and blood."

"Aren't you gay?"

Matt glares at Peter. "What are you mad man."

Niki smirks walking over to Matt squeezing his shoulders. "I always knew you had a thing for Mohinder."

Peter smiled he had always wondered about Mohinder and Matt. "Yeah you two seem pretty friendly."

Matt gets up from the table ready to walk away. "I don't need this from you guys. Plus Peter you don't even remember half of this so don't go there."

"Its ok to love him baby." Niki jokes as she slaps Matt's butt when he walks away going to his room.

"Aren't you late for a pool dance or something." Matt yells from their bedroom.

Peter eyes Niki who glares at him. "You don't think he is for real?" She questions as Peter shrugs not sure what to tell her till he figures the truth is the best thing. "Um you were kind of a stripper and my girlfriend in my mind for awhile."

Niki walks over to Peter bending down to lean on the table almost popping out of her shirt. "Oh was I? You better be good Petrelli or I'll tell Ms. Claire about little old me."

Peter frowns. Why did she have to bring up Claire? "So what do you do then?"

"I work at a bio-tech firm called Pinehearst."

Peter looks around the small apartment stopping at a picture of Micah and Molly in private school uniforms. Niki sees Peter looking at the picture. "Your brother and Tracy paid for Micah and Molly to attend the school you guys had went to. I don't know what I would do if my sister didn't give Micah the education he needs. You know he is a genius."

Peter smiles glad to hear his brother was helping out as Niki continues. "After Matt's wife died Nathan took them in till Matt got back on track. Heidi hated that then when DL went missing Tracy helped me out all she could. She got Nathan's team to help search for him so the mob wouldn't come to my doorstep and kill Micah or me. Matt and I we are just us. Were not a couple but we are a family though I can tell Molly and Micah aren't close to becoming brother and sister we are a family. I'm glad my sister found your brother Pete. He is what she needed after raising a hellhound like me especially after she lost Jessica."

Peter looks at her taking her hand. "I'm sorry you two lost your sister."

Niki pulls her hand away distraught from his words. "Peter I don't know what you remember but Jessica wasn't my sister. She's Tracy's daughter. She died 10 years ago. She had a virus died before she turned 5."

Peter looks at Niki then to the table. "The Shanti virus." He mumbles to himself remembering in his mind Mohinder was treating Molly for that disease.

"What's that something new Mohinder is cooking up?" Matt questions walking back into the room now fully dress in his private service outfit. He looks at Peter who eyes him. "Nathan has a meeting tonight he needs his best guard there."

"And you're the best guy for the job."

Niki grabs Matt pulling him in for a hug just as the apartment door opens revealing Mohinder walking inside with Micah and Molly who were fighting over something or another.

"Nah Molly."

"No Micah."

"Ah!"

"That's enough from you two." Mohinder states placing Molly's books on the table. "Remind me never to bring up Charles Darwin."

Matt laughs at Mohinder. "Thanks for bringing these two home Mohinder."

"Just don't make it a regular thing Matthew."

Peter watches Mohinder eye Matt as he smirks to himself thinking of what Niki had said earlier. Couple talk indeed.

"Peter!"

Peter was pulled out of his thought as Micah and Molly ran up to him both attacking him. Micah gave Peter a small hug then letting go sitting on the chair next to him as Molly jumped on Peter's lap hugging him.

"You're not in a coma no more! Now we can finish the story book I've been waiting."

Peter smiles at Molly as Mohinder pats Peter's back.

"Good luck. Maya and I will see you tomorrow for dinner right?"

Peter nods at Mohinder as Matt pulls Molly off of him. "Sure I'll be there."

Niki nods to Mohinder then looks to the kids. "Kids thank Mohinder for walking you home from school you know he had to get out of work early for you two."

"But he works a block away from our school."

"Micah!" Niki eyes her son as Micah then goes over and gives Mohinder a hug.

"Dr. Suresh next time we should talk about string theory." He leans in whispering to him but loud enough for everyone else to hear. "Molly wont know what we are talking about then."

"Yeah I will Micah!"

Molly walks over to Micah and Mohinder. Micah rolls his eyes at her as she sticks out her tongue at him. Peter laughs at the sight knowing that is exactly how a brother and sister would act contre to Niki's earlier statement.

"Micah Molly stop." Matt states eyeing his daughter.

Molly stops then hugs Mohinder who is still bent down from Micah's whisper. "Thanks Mohinder."

"You're welcome you two. See you tomorrow." Mohinder states leaving the Parkman-Sanders family alone with Peter.

Molly walks over to Peter now leaning on his chair. Her eyes locked with his as her chin sits on Peter's arm. "I like grape juice."


"Aw Molls. Don't freak Peter out just yet he still doesn't remember everything." Matt states picking up his daughter giving her a kiss before handing her over to Niki who does the same then places the girl on the chair across from Peter.

"You finish your homework Micah." Matt states before hugging him and grabbing his keys.

"Try to behave you two." Niki states kissing her son's forehead before grabbing her purse walking out the door with Matt.

Peter looks at the two as they walk out of the apartment. He looks to Micah who is busy reading his book and then at Molly who is still eyeing him. How did this happen? What happened exactly? Why was he here?


Peter looked around the room to hear the door open and Matt and Niki walk back into the room looking at him.

"Peter?" Niki sits down at the last available chair touching Peter's arm smiling at him.

"I'm guessing a favor?" Peter questions hoping it has nothing to do with Claire not ready to be around her more then necessary.

"You kind of were our babysitter when we both worked nights."

Peter looked at Niki then to Matt who gave a grin then to the two children who had wide eyes hoping he would say yes. "Sure why not its not like I have a life."

"Yes!"

Micah and Molly both shout as they run to go get some toys bringing them back into the room.

"We can build my model train."

"No Peter is reading my story book."

"No Molly."

"Yes Micah!"

Before Peter could take back his agreement Matt and Niki had left. Now he sat there watching Micah and Molly fight over him. He so needed a life.
