"Anakin, I like you."

The brown-haired young man blushed and stared at him, as if there was light in his eyes.

"Will you be my boyfriend?"

Anakin froze on the spot, his mind was in a mess, his heart was beyond shock, but he vaguely felt that it should be so.

Peter's attitude towards him, the time spent together after revealing their identities to each other, and the vague feeling in his heart that has been deliberately ignored, suppressed and misunderstood...

Brotherhood?friendship?Deceive yourself!

But Anakin shouldn't indulge in it, he can't establish too deep a bond on Earth.In another universe, he has family - son Luke, daughter Leia.He also has to go back and help them clean up the remnants of the Galactic Empire, atone for his past, and help the galaxy establish a new order.

Peter is still young, life is still so long.He is sunny, handsome, intelligent, and kind. He has merits that cannot be exhausted for three days and three nights, and he also has a bright future.Anakin only hoped that he was a brief passer-by in Peter's life, just like other middle school teachers, leaving memories of just a few years, and thereafter no intersection.He shouldn't occupy too much weight in Peter's life.

Reason frantically warned Anakin in his brain, ordering him to reject Peter.But he couldn't bear to see the disappointment in those shining eyes, and he didn't want to see the light inside go out.

"I..." Anakin said with difficulty, "You should think about it again. After all...you just graduated from high school and are still young."

There was still a little disappointment in Peter's eyes, but the situation was much better than Anakin expected, perhaps because he was not directly rejected.

"I'm not young anymore, I was an adult last August." He emphasized.

"Then, then let me think about it, give me some time, okay?" Anakin said weakly, he couldn't refute Peter's words directly now, "Just take it, just take care of me. Middle-aged and elderly people."

"You're not old, you look 24 or [-] at most. We walk on the street and people believe that we are brothers." Peter said, "But what you said makes sense. How about before my birthday this year? August Before the tenth, you can give me an answer, accept or reject it. It’s only the end of June, and you still have more than a month to consider. But, please come and tell me in person, okay?”

In fact, Peter wished that Anakin would agree to be his boyfriend in the next second, but he was afraid of hearing the answer of rejection, and would rather wait for a month with his heart scratching his lungs.

"Well, there's plenty of time." Anakin breathed a sigh of relief, and secretly determined to speed up the progress. At worst, he would stay up for a few nights and work overtime to fix the spaceship before Peter's birthday.

After separating from Peter, Anakin returned home in a daze, entered the door and went straight to the basement to check the progress of the spaceship's modification.

"Fuselage, wings, life support system, communication system, weapon system..." He ticked off the inspection records one by one, "Now the engine is missing. According to my calculations, I want to provide warping space The power of the current engine alone is not enough, and another one is needed.”

He crossed his arms, remembering what Vulture had told him, that there were two Chitauri engines, one was here and the other was missing.It seems that I still have to ask the other party to inquire about it.

Could it have been recovered by the Damage Control Bureau, which Stark co-runs with the government?

Anakin went to the Stark Group this time, and originally wanted to take the opportunity to steal the recovery list from the Damage Control Bureau.But on the one hand, he is not fully sure that he can successfully obtain Stark's information. On the other hand, he was brought in by Peter. Peter trusts him. If Stark loses something at this time, he will definitely be the first to suspect Peter. , which is equivalent to implicating the other party.

This sounds contradictory.Anakin will soon ignore the young man's sincere confession, get on a spaceship and escape into the universe, but still care about the little things that may hurt Peter right now.

He sneered mockingly at the blank ceiling, as if laughing at his own hypocrisy.

Fortunately, the information resources on Vulture's side are more reliable. Later in the day, he sent a message that he had a clue of the second engine.

"This is the news I got from an internal employee." The other party said mysteriously, "The engine is in Stark's Damage Control Bureau, and it will be packaged and shipped to Washington soon. Those aliens left The things under it are treasures, and there are a lot of secret agencies waiting to be robbed. Stark has contributed money and effort, and he cooperated with the US government to create such a damage control bureau, and he can only get a part of it."

"Specialized transportation? Can you get it?" Anakin didn't say "steal" or "rob", but the meaning was obvious.

Vulture looked at him and said with a grin: "No problem, I have some unique ways to get it. But the difficulty is really not small, the price... How about ordering a machine for me as compensation? I need a machine that is portable enough to allow me to sneak into warehouses or bases silently, can you do it?"

"Sneaking in quietly?" Anakin frowned.

"Yes, this is also to help you get that engine, it's safer." Vulture said.

When mentioning the spaceship engine, Anakin remembered the warping space device used to open the hyperspace gate. This thing was taken over and made into a cheap imitation, which fully met the requirements of the vulture.

"How about I make you a miniature space distortion generator? It can temporarily distort a part of the space, allowing you to pass through walls. After the machine is turned off, the space distortion will automatically recover without any trace."

"Ah, perfect!" Vulture was scratching the top of his thin-haired head, "How did you think of it, what a genius! That's it! But you have to give me the goods first, and I will rely on it to help you get it engine."

"Deal." Anakin has been working with the other party for so long, and he already believes in the other party's reputation.

"How long will it take you to make it?" Vulture asked.

Anakin estimated the time in his mind: "It will take about two weeks, I will contact you then."

"Okay, that's it."

Wait another two weeks, and the last part of the spaceship will be available. By then, I will definitely be able to slip away before Peter's birthday, no, leave.

Thinking of this, he didn't feel any relief in his heart, but was full of heavy bitterness.

Or at least leave a letter for Peter?Apologize to him, explain why and reject him.

That's too guilty, what a coward, it's better to reject him face to face.Didn't Peter insist that I answer him myself?Just obey him one more time.

Anakin took a deep breath, and finally decided to harden his heart and refuse Peter the next time they met.

Anyway, he can't eat me, can he?He soothed himself.
