Peter would like to say he can be an independent person, he was part of the Marauders after all! Sometimes he had to be. They could be a little obnoxious at times, and everyone had to take a break from obnoxious people, hence, independence, right? He could be alone.
Alright, maybe whenever he took a break he started to hang out with other people, but he was still independent. Alright, maybe whenever he took a break he would hang out with you, and only you, but he was still- actually, nevermind. He relied on you like an addict does their drug, whether he was on a break from his friends or not. It was beginning to become a sort of problem. Why is it a problem? Well, aside from the obvious reason, you had also noticed and were definitely fucking with him. You had this little bracelet with a bell on it and would only make the ringing noise when it was flicked that you had explained was used for calling your dogs back home, yet you had started using it on him, ringing it whenever you you saw him or to announce your arrival. And then is started working. Every time he heard that little ding he would drop everything he was doing and wait for you to catch up. You had also used the bell as a sign to shut.
Currently, he was, in fact, on a break from his friends after a nasty full moon with Remus and a not-so-funny prank played on him, that actually caused him to snap at them. It almost felt nice to see their guilty expression every night. You know what else felt nice? Hearing that wonderful little bell ring as he was walking in a deserted corridor. Hell, he hasn't heard that sound in ages. Immediately coming to a halt, he waits until the quick footfall stop besides him before he actually starts moving again, turning to give you a grin

He may be suddenly very aware of his disheveled appearance
“Where have ya been, hm? Haven't seen you in ages.”
