Peter finally received a day off from the studio. He was filming everyday and most times it went later than expected. It didn't bother you as much as it did him. You lived together so you saw each other more than if you had still lived separate but it just made you feel bad when he was so tired but was still expected to give his all.
On his day off he wanted to take it easy. Naturally, you agreed. You spent the morning together in the pool. He would hold you close and kiss your shoulder. You would backstroke into the side wall where he would hold you still and give you a kiss.
After swimming, you'd lay on the couch while he answered some fan mail. He had boxes filled with letters and pictures to sign. One would think it was a chore but not Peter, he enjoyed it whenever he could, but it had been a while since he had the opportunity. You started drifting off to sleep when you heard chuckling. Naturally, you thought he was laughing at you. So you groaned, squinting your eyes to look over at the snickering man who shook his head and kept writing away, in his own little world.
"Nice boyfriend." You joked while rolling over to face away from him.
"Oh darling I wasn't laughing at you, it's this letter, this man has a great sense of humor." he continued to chuckle. He sealed the envelope and put it in a separate pile. He walked over to the back of the couch and leaned over.
He stroked your cheek with his fingers while your eyes started to close.
"Wanna go upstairs and take a nap with me?" He asked quietly, you nodded, yawning while standing up. You followed him up the stairs slowly until you made it into your bedroom.

You laid down on your side of the bed and curled up to your pillow. Peter got in after you and wrapped his arms around your waist and pulled you close.
"What I'd give to get more of these days more often." he hummed into your ear. You rolled over to face him and looked into his eyes.
You smiled while playing with his short brown hair, "I know the movie will end up being fantastic, just like always."
"I hope so." he started to close his eyes, you scooted closer and laid your head against his chest, hearing his heart beat next to your ear. It was your favorite lullaby.
Even while he was sleeping, he still had his protective embrace over you. He never wanted anything bad to happen to you. It caused him a great deal of anxiety when he was away filming for many hours at a time, and would often call you during any break he had, just to make sure you were okay.
You peppered kisses all down his neck and jawline. Pulling away to look at his face. He was still asleep but must've been dreaming, his face was distorted into one that nearly broke your heart. His lip was pouty, his eyebrows pressed together, a single tear falling.
"Peter, darling." You kissed the crook of his neck and you started to shake him. Nothing.
"Peter." you shook him again. Nothing.
"Baby, are you okay?" You shook him a little harder, then finally he woke up, his eyes wide and his face filled with relief.
"Peter, were you having a nightmare?" He sat up and nodded.
"What was it about?" You cradled him, he leaned his head on your shoulder.
"I thought I was losing you but I couldn't be there because of work." you wiped the few stray tears from his cheeks.
"Oh darling, you won't lose me, not in a million years, honest. I'm right here." you pressed a kiss to the top of his forehead. He laid in your arms for a little while longer before pulling away to face you.
"Thank you."

Paradigm Shift - New Beginnings
The known universe is facing an invasion from a foe that can rewrite the natural laws and that will destroy everyting we know. Derrick is ripped from his world and sent to the newest incursion point of an enemy he doesn't even know exists. He is the hail mary or kitchen sink of the universe and it will be up to him to adapt to his new world and become strong enough to survive and to save the universe. ********* Author's Note ********* This is my first published book so feedback would be appreciated. A couple of caveats. First this story is about the details, if you don't enjoy reading and finding the easter eggs or just like to speed read through the chapters you will probably not enjoy it. Second for those that do not like the Harem tag I just want to state that this is going to be a matriarchal society and the women will outnumber the men 5-1. That being the case and because of the culture that I imagine would arise from this I felt it fair to put that tag out there. However, the main character isn't going to be picking up women left and right. This is not a typical harem story. Image was googled so I have no rights to it

A/N: I'll update chapters when I get to places where I feel it's right, I don't know where to go and want some direction or would like to have you help with the narrative in some way. Having others make choices forces me to be creative and I think that's when I'm at my best. Keep an eye out for polls in post chapter notes, they usually last 2 days. As always, love each other, and know I am grateful for every single person who reads my works.
