Wonderful story, awwwww. I already loved the idea as it was being formed, but the end result is just pure squeeeeee :D Heeee :D

I absolutely adore Elizabeth in her mother hen mode, coaxing Neal into trusting her at least a bit, then taking care of him, and keeping Peter calm and reasonable, LOL. Young Neal is simply irresistible after all :D

And Peter is so very Peter in this, heee :D

Love it to bits :D
