She knows that her usually unfailing optimism can sometimes get to people, maybe especially people like Peter who have seen so much darkness. She can't change it, though, even if for some reason she wanted to. And so she smiles at him, showing all is forgiven.
"So, does my being older actually bother you?" She asks, mostly teasing as she smiles him and reaches for the ketchup. "Because really, it's not much of a difference."
