"You did what?" Mylo scolded. I felt bad for Powder, it wasn't really her fault, she's young. "I'm sorry! I tried to fight him off with Mouser but,  she didn't work. Mylo rolled his eyes. 

I went over to Powder and picked her up into a hug. I couldn't really say anything, because it hurt. She nuzzled her head into my neck, which also hurt a bit but I didn't mind. I could hear the other three fighting.

"We never should have gone over there." Claggor stressed. "Doesn't matter, the stuff's gone." Vi came over to me and Powder. She gives the back of her head a rub. "It's alright Powder, at least you're okay."  She started to walk so I followed.

"Okay? What about us? I get my face bashed in and she gets a pass?" Mylo complained. Vi was unbothered. "Yep." "What about Iris? She could've died!" "Do you ever shut the fuck up Mylo?" She snapped, causing Powder and I to wince.

We all went into the elevator as Vi pulled the lever. I looked at Mylo giving him the middle finger with a smile. "What the hell was that for?" I shrugged and looked away. I enjoy messing with Mylo he has a short fuse, so does Vi but I'd never push her buttons.

We finally made it to the undercity and I set Powder down. As the elevator came to a stop I jumped out as did everyone else. As we walked home Mylo stole two fruits, he gave me one to which I threw at his face. He gave me a shove as I smiled brightly.

We finally made it to The Last Drop, home. Vi looked at everyone. "Put your poker face on, okay?" Everyone nodded, and we walked in. I felt a stare as soon as we did. We made it to our rooms and I dragged Vi on the couch with me. I was exhausted. I rested my head on Vi's shoulder.

Vi let out a frustrated sigh. "Vander learns none of this." Mylo grunts. "No worries there. Powder took care of the evidence." I looked over at the girl who's head was in her knees as she looked back up to argue her case. "I tried okay? You don't get it. You're older, you're bigger. It isn't fair!" "So stick with us, take a punch or two."

I reached to the table and picked up Claggors goggles and threw them at Mylo's face. Just then Vander walked in and everyone's heads looked down. "Everyone alright?" "Never better." Mylo can really just never shut up.

"I don't suppose you can explain why it is I'm hearing about an explosion and a foot chase topside? Five children fleeing the scene. What the hell were you thinking." He was looking at Vi and I, but mostly Vi. I decided to sit up, I was starting to feel very uncomfortable.

"That we can handle a real job." "A real job?" "We got out own tip, planned a route, nobody even saw." "You blew up a building." "That wasn't-" "Did you even stop to think about what could've happen to you? To them?" He gestured towards us. I did the same as Powder, hugging my knee's and hiding my face.

There was a moment of silence, so I thought it was over. Vander continued. "Where did you even get this tip?" Powder rat out that we found out from Ekko.

Vi stood up quickly, making me flinch. "Jumpy." I heard Mylo whisper. I rolled my eyes. "I took us there. If you wanna be mad, be mad at me. You're the one who always says we have to earn our place in this world.  "I also told you time and time again, the Northside's off limits! We stay out of Piltover's business." "Why? They've got plenty while we're down here scraping together coins."

I hated when Vi and Vander argued, it reminded me of how my parents used to argue when I was little. Reason I'm so jumpy was because my father, he did not so nice thing to my mother, and me.

"When did you get so comfortable living in someone else's shadow?" Vi finished. Everyone looked at Vander, including me. I got up and stormed out just before  Vander signaled everyone else to do so. 

Mylo, Claggor, and Powder came out of the room shortly after me. We waited on the steps for Vander to finish with Vi.

"So," Mylo started. "What was that back there?" He was looking at me. I furrowed my eyebrows, I wasn't going to talk. It burned. "Oh don't act dumb. You basically came out as a lesbian in front of everyone." My stomach started to cramp. Claggor gave me a smile. "Does that mean you like Vi?"

My eyes widened and jaw opened. I rapidly shook my head no. "Say nothing if you like Vi." Mylo teased. I stood there for a moment, embarrassed. "I-" "Iris likes Vi! Iris likes-" The door opened to Vander. He put on a dorky smile. "Who does Iris like?"

"Shu- up-" I croaked, slapping my hand to my head and heading back into the basement. I went over by the couch, grabbed Vi's hand, and went over to the bathroom.

"Bathroom?" She asked. I pointed to her face in the mirror grabbing small towel and soaking it in water. I was a bit shorter than Vi, so I sat myself on the small counter of the sink and gently scrubbed the dirt and blood off her face. 

She started to play with the ends of my hair. My hair was very long. I've never cut it. It was down to my hips. My long hair resembled my mother and I wasn't sure I wanted to get rid of that.

My stomach got all fluttery and my arms got stiff, maybe I did like Vi. I shook my thoughts away and continued cleaning her face. She smiled. "Thanks Cupcake." "Cupcake?" I coughed, that hurt. "Yeah, cupcakes are cute.

My heart was racing and I wasn't sure why, nothing like that has ever happened before. I hopped off the sink and opened the door. As soon as I came out Mylo started howling, Vi closed the door behind me. 

"Shut up Mylo, she was cleaning my face." Vi defended.  He wiggled his eyebrows. Of course he had to make it weird. I put my hand on my forehead and walked over to Vi's bed, we shared. 

"She's a problem." I heard Mylo complain, he was talking about Powder. I didn't want to listen to what he had to say so I decided to sleep. The comforting smell of Vi's bed making it easy to drift away.
