Hello again! I don't really like this one very much, but I hope that you do. I might come back to this one later and touch it up, because I'm not very happy with the result.
Even so, enjoy!

097. Safety First
"Peter, come on. This is a nice suit! It'll get all wrinkled!" Neal whined, a rare occurrence in Peter's presence, sitting in the passenger's seat of the car.
"Neal, just put the seatbelt on. I don't want to have to peel you off of the road if we happen to get in a car accident." The agent's keys were in the ignition, waiting to be turned to start the car.
"But the great thing about the new Ford Taurus is that it does most of the driving for you!" Neal smiled, attempting to get Peter to change his mind. They were heading to an undercover operation and they had to look their best, not even an undercover conman could risk a wrinkled disguise!
"Yeah, and if I let it drive you'll end up a pancake. Just put the seatbelt on." Frustration was growing between the two, but Peter wouldn't let the younger man win.
"But Peter, I have to look good!"
"Safety first."
"Oh, I see. So you would rather risk my life in a battle against a road then against a bad guy?" Neal plastered a pout on his face, something that not even Peter could resist, he knew.
Except maybe this time… "If you don't put the seat belt on right now then I'm carting you back to jail."
"Come on, Pete, you don't mean that." Neal's face was pale. That was a threat that he hadn't heard in a very long time.
"Oh I do, now put it on."
"But-"
"Okay, get out." Peter didn't even look at the conman, simply taking the keys out of the ignition.
"Fine, I'll do it!" Neal gave in and buckled his seatbelt. A scowl of disgust haunted his still pale features. "Jeez."
Peter's smirk could be seen from a mile away. Neal Caffrey was definitely rubbing off on him.
Eh, if anyone has any tips as to how to make this one better, they would be greatly appreciated!
And please, I know that I'm just writing these for my own satisfaction, but it would make me very happy if you dropped a review. Even if it's just to say you liked it! It would mean a lot to me!
Also, thank you so much to unique94chick for your review!
Just one more thing, does anyone even read author's notes any more? Just wondering.
