Peter is the type who, even if the first impression wasn't great, he'd give someone room to grow and change. Hell, he'll even help.

He follows that hand down his chest with his eyes, liking the feel of skin on skin. All of his senses are elevated - including touch - which makes situations like this more intense. And interesting.

He already gave a bit of indication he isn't likely to maintain the eye contact through the whole thing, but he will try.
