Author's Summary: Fifteen year old Neal is caught by the FBI in possession of forged paintings. Special Agent Peter Burke decides to give him a second chance at life. Will Neal take a leap of faith and finally trust someone to be there for him?

Why this must be read:

As the summary says, this is an AU where Peter catches Neal while he's still in his teens. This opens their family/ father-son dynamic up to a whole new level, which is the source of quite a few very cute scenes in this fanfiction. Neal, even though a teenager in this fanfiction, is still recognizably Neal and canon!Peter is very much in character, too. Angst, hurt and comfort are also part of the deal.


He was looking at Peter's badge, examining it, as if he could find something to prove that it was a fake.

"I've never met a federal agent before," he said as he handed the badge back to Peter.

"I think most fifteen year olds wouldn't have a reason to know one."
