This takes place after Pete and Myka help Kelly. This is something I thought about after watching season 5 WH13. I really love this show, I'm just really disappointed in how they are doing the last 6 plus I DO NOT like the Pyka angle if you do I apologize now.

So this is my attempt to make myself feel better and maybe help a lot of you feel a little better who may be just as disappointed as me. I'm not sure where this is going or how many chapters but I hope you like.

I own nothing. I hope you enjoy.

The Time is Now

After leaving Kelly's Pete's pretty quiet as we head back. I know seeing Kelly was hard for him I know how much he loved her and how much it hurt him when she left. So seeing her had to be hard.

"Hey Pete. Are you ok?"

"Yeah, yeah it's just..."

"What's up? Was it seeing Kelly again?"

"No...I mean yes and no. It's just something Kelly said."

"Hmm. Do you want to talk about it?"

I sit quiet for a few minutes giving him a chance to decide if he wants to talk about it. We have been partners long enough to know when to push and when we want to talk about it in our own time.

"Pete. Are you ok?"

"Oh yeah sorry. It just she thinks I'm in love with...YOU"

"WHAT?"

All I can think is oh crap, oh crap please don't let that be true. He sees the panic on my face and starts to laugh.

"Relax Mykes jeez."

I take a deep breath still feeling uncomfortable, I pull myself together.

"Well, what did you say?"

"I didn't have time to answer she shut the door in my face."

"Oh" oh crap, oh crap, oh crap.

I'm getting a little uncomfortable, all I can think is please don't let this be true. Don't get me wrong I love Pete but not like that he is my best friend, big brother and partner. Pete speaks up tearing me from being on the verge of a panic attack.

"Mykes relax. I'm not in love with you. I mean I love you but not like that. You're like my little sister, we are best friends and partners. That will never change."

I let out a breath with a sign of relief.

"Besides you're in love with HG." I see him start to laugh.

"Yeah...Wait what."

I see him laughing even harder.

"YOU. ARE. IN. LOVE. WITH. HG." how could he possibly know that, but on the other hand Pete is pretty in tune with people.

"Shut up Pete." I punch him in the arm.

"Ouch. Easy killer driving here. Always so violent." I just glare at him. Even though I know he's right, I'm not going to give him the satisfaction. It's a long drive and he will be insufferable.

I look out the window thinking about what Pete said. He's right I'm in love with Helena and have been since the day we met but I'm not sure what to do. The last time I saw her she was playing house in Boone.

I want to tell her how I feel and I have for a long time especially after having my scare. I need her to know how I feel even if nothing comes from it at least she will know how I feel and I will have some closure.

I catch Pete watching me, I just look at him.

"What?"

"Oh nothing I'm just wondering what you're going to do about HG." I just sigh feeling defeated.

"I don't know Pete. I honestly don't know what to do. I want to tell her but the last time we saw her she was in Boone with..."

I can't even say his name it still leaves a bitter taste in my mouth. He sees my struggle and speaks up.

"Ok Mykes I'm about to have a serious big brother moment here so brace yourself"

I just stare at him with a smile, when he gets like this he actually gives good advice.

"Let me ask you this Mykes and be honest with me and yourself. Are you in love with her?"

I pause before I answer, I take a deep breath.

"Yes...I love her more than I have loved anyone in my entire life."

"Even more than Sam?"

Sam where the hell did that come from I want to be honest so I swallow my pride. I look down with a little shame. I loved Sam I really did but it was nothing like the love I feel for Helena it's different with her. It has been from the start.

"Yes."

"Ok...So what are we going to do about it?"

"WE. Didn't you just say what am I going to do about it a few minutes ago?"

"Come on Mykes I wouldn't be a very good big brother if I didn't help."

He just gives me a smile. He really is a great guy I couldn't ask for a better partner and friend.

"I don't know Pete, I mean she made her choice and we haven't spoken in 6 months. She has her life, she made it pretty clear how she felt about the warehouse about us...about me."

I let a tear fall it's still hard to think about. My heart broke that day in Boone and I haven't been the same since.

"But you want to tell her how you feel don't you?"

"Yes, I feel like the time is right that I need too."

"Ok then...You shouldn't let anyone or anything stand in your way. Let the Petester be your love guide."

"Oh Lord here we go."

"What, Mykes you know I'm a smooth operator. Me and little Pete are masters of love."

"I'm not sure little Pete has advice I want to take."

"Hey he is the one who brings..." I cut him off before he finishes.

"Pete shut up before I throw up. UGH"

He just laughs, I know he does it to get a reaction out of me. I can't help but laugh a little.

As we sit in a comfortable silence for a few minutes, all I can think is, is this really about to happen. I'm about to make a huge life changing decision, I'm about to tell Helena how I feel. Oh my God I'm about to tell Helena how I feel. Now I feel anxious, nervous and panicked.

"Mykes?"

"MYKES!"

Pete yells tearing me from my oncoming anxiety.

"What?"

"Are you ok? Yeah I'm just thinking"

"It will be ok Mykes. I got your back no matter what."

"Thanks Pete."

We are back at the B&B it's not as late as I thought but everyone else is still at the Warehouse. We get out of the car and in that second I decided it's time. I'm going to call Helena. Pete was right I need to talk to tell her how I feel now matter what. The time is now.

I'm not sure how I feel about this but I hope you enjoy it, like I said I'm not sure how many chapters this will turn in to but there will for sure be another chapter. Please any advice you have or comments I would love to hear them.
