Chipped Adora

30: Glad You're Safe

No one's POV

Adora had spent most of the day in her room, much to Catra's dismay. She wanted to talk to her, tell her about what she left to do.

A few minutes ago Adora had left her room to get a sip of water, but returned right after, leaving Catra alone with Glimmer and Bow.

"So what'd you take Darla for?" Glimmer asks, creating a small cloud of glitter before making it disappear.

"To kill Horde Prime," Catra responds quickly, noticing Glimmer's sudden change in posture. "Well did you do it?" She raises an eyebrow and looks at Catra expectantly. 

Catra shakes her head no. "No. I got to worried about Adora. I knocked him out and ran. The only thing I did was scratch his leg."

Glimmer scoffs. "Yeah, good job." She rolls her eyes and grabs some food out of the cabinet.

"Hey, don't be so rude. At least she tried. And how can you blame her? We're all worried about Adora." Bow looks at Catra, his eyebrows furrowed. "She went on a walk and got captured by Lonnie, Kyle and Rogelio. Which is why you saw them here."

Catra raises her eyebrows. "So they capture her and you let them stay here?"

"Well they didn't hurt her. They just kept her for a while, then they asked to stay, so we let them." Bow shrugs and grabs some of the food out of Glimmer's hand, putting it in his mouth and chewing.

"Yeah, sure. Anyways, where am I supposed to sleep? I've been with Adora in her room this whole time, but I don't think she wants me in there." Catra glances down at her feet before feeling a hand on her shoulder, which brings her eyes back up.

"Just go talk to her and tell her the truth. I'm sure she'll forgive you." Bow gives her a small smile and moves his hand, allowing her to walk out of the kitchen.

"Thank you, both of you." Catra smiles at the two, and they both return the gesture before Glimmer motions for her to go on. 

"Bye bye. Go talk to your girlfriend." She smirks and takes a sip of her drink. "She's not- Ugh, whatever."

Catra walks out of the room, then sprints to Adora's room, knocking on the door.

"Come in."

Catra hesitantly opens the door, her eyes glued to the floor.

"Oh, Catra. Hi." Catra glances up, her eyes immediately finding Adora's smile.

"H-Hi. I just thought you want to know what I did. While you were gone." Adora shrugs in response, leaning against her bed. "Not really, honestly I don't care as long as you're not hurt."

"Oh."

Adora pats the spot next to her, signalling for Catra to sit down beside her, which she does.

"You aren't hurt, right?" Adora asks, looking at Catra with her eyebrows furrowed worriedly.

Catra quickly nods her head, giving Adora a smile. "Yeah, I'm fine."

"Good." Adora's concerned expression vanishes, a small smile replacing it.

Suddenly Adora launches herself at Catra, engulfing her in a hug. "I'm so glad you're safe," she mumbles.

Catra wraps her arms around Adora, bringing her as close as she could come. 

"Me too."
