You left, I own nothing this is all for fun…
That afternoon, neither of them brought up the fact that Neal has been missing for a couple of years, and he suddenly showed back up today. Elizabeth went over the afternoon again and again, before she finally decided that her anger was justified.
A couple of days later, she began to worry about Peter a bit, by now she was sure he would have at least brought up the subject of Neal, but he was still being quite on the matter.
By Saturday that afternoon, she had to leave her boys to work an event, but when she returned around 230 that Sunday morning, she found Peter still up setting at the kitchen table with Joshua passed out curled up next to Satch. It didn't take her long to notice the old familiar expression on his face that Neal was generally the cause of.
"Honey, what are you doing up?" she questioned as she stopped to cress Joshua's face.
"We had a guest earlier tonight."
"Neal?"
Shaking his head yes, she wanted to press for more as she walked over and hugged him around the neck, before she sat down next to him. After a few moments, they allowed themselves to be distracted after Joshua tossed and turned a bit after hearing their voices. Instead of starting the conversation of Neal, which would surly take several hours, Peter scooped Joshua up to take him to bed.
Peter had to drag himself from Joshua's room, and as he rounded the corner to their bed room, he was hoping to at least tonight, Elizabeth wouldn't press him for any info on Neal.
That night he laid there watching the sun coming up, unable to catch any sleep; his mind was still racing trying to process his evening with Neal.

Having the evening going better than planned with Peter made Neal felt a little better, but he still had the feeling that something was wrong , he felt like he was being watched. Every car he passed or every person he saw could have been the one. The one he was waiting on, the one he has been searching for.
For the time being he was able to smooth things over with June, Mozzie, and now thankfully Peter. He also knew that there would be a series of very long conversations with each of them- once things were over, but for now there just wasn't time.
First thing Monday morning, Peter called on Diana and Jones to get their help on tracking down all they could on a person or persons called G2.
"Boss….. Where's Neal been and why is back?"
Peter frowned…pondered if or even how was he going to tell them where Neal has been and why he left.
Sorry for this short chap….time is not on my side right now…
