I'll Be Your Hero | A. Davenport

Hole In One

(Y/N) POV

Walking into the living room Davenport motions us over to him "Hey, guys, check this out. I picked this up at auction today, and it only cost me a million dollars."

Adam looks puzzled "Wha--? For a sheet?" Davenport looks over at Adam "Well, I guess I'd better start saving up if I'm gonna be a ghost for Halloween."

"It's a painting, Adam, by a very famous artist named Von Schtopp." Davenport pulls off the sheet.

Bree just looks at it, Chase shakes his head trying to process the paint, Leo and I just frown "Hm. I wish I would have been there to "Von Schtopp" you from buying it." I start to laugh at Leo's comment.

Adam frowns his brows and places his hands on his hips "What is it?"

Davenport sighs and smiles "It's abstract art, Adam. It's whatever you think it is."

Bree tilts her head "I think it's a crying woman."

Chase shakes his head and crosses his arms "I think it's a storm at sea."

"I think it's a waste of paint" I mumble out, Adam smiles down at me while Davenport shoots a glare my way.

Leo shakes his head "No, I think someone just blew a million bucks."

Davenport's phone starts to ring "That's me. Davenport Industries. Hello? Uh-huh. Oh, boy. All right." Davenport hangs up the phone and looks back at us "Looks like I've got to put out a fire at work."

"What happened?" Chase asks

"Betty from accounting got her head caught in the positron collider again." Davenport responds causing us all to grimace "That's gonna be messy. Can you guys put that in the art vault for me?"

Davenport goes to walk away but Leo calls after "Wait, you have an art vault?"

Davenport turns around with a smug smile "When are you guys gonna learn? I have a everything." He chuckles "But whatever you do, do not touch the Davenportraits."

"What's a Davenportrait?" Leo and I ask only for the siblings to take us to the art vault and show us what a Davenportrait looks like.

Looking over at Leo I notice him standing like The Scream "Am I screaming out loud or just inside my head?"

Chase looks at me "I'm just gonna say it: Davenport is one weird dude."

I nod my head "Took the words right out of my mouth"

Adam walks over and puts the painting on the stand "Ah. Voila. The Von Schto-- " he starts to sneeze and we usher him to turn around and not sneeze on us. Adam sneezes and accidentally triggers heat vision that burns a hole through the painting.

Chase pushes past us and runs over to the painting "Adam, what did you do?"

Adam starts to blink "Oh, I think that sneeze accidentally triggered my heat vision."

Leo walks over to the painting "Big D is going to freak out!"

Chase turns over to us "Let's not panic. This hole is barely noticeable." Adam sneezes again and burns a bigger hole in the painting causing Chase to start panicking "That, however, is incredibly noticeable!"

I turn over to Adam panic in my voice "Adam if you're going to destroy paintings, do it to those!" I motion over to the Davenportraits. Adam frowns at me getting frustrated with him and I can't help but let out a sigh and motion him closer to me.

Chase looks through the hole in the painting and walks around back over to me "Adam, I cannot believe you just destroyed Mr. Davenport's million-dollar painting!"
