Peter tries to talk to her, once, but the mastiff next door breaks into Mr. Muggles' territory again, and the combined barking makes her turn, mid-sentence, and go to her room.
They try to be friendly, just as usual, and no one seems to notice anything out of the ordinary. But meeting on the stairs is awkward, and having meals with her family is uncomfortable, and when Claire hands around the coffee, she puts Peter's cup down on the table so she won't touch him. Not even by accident.
This is what she means by being careful.
The truce holds.
