*Note: Ava's powers are literally just creating/influencing explosions and the Flixian accent turns all Th's into D's.*
Ava was sat, pouting, on the couch in her and her quadruplets' house. Leah was kneeling in front of her and was stitching up a large gash in her forearm.
There were already numerous other stitched up sections and patches all across Ava's body.
Leah finally finished up her stitching and clipped the thread with her teeth. After she did that she began lecturing Ava again as she wrapped up her arm so she didn't irritate the stitches.
Once Leah gave Ava one more look over she packed up her stuff and left.
What had messed Ava up so bad?
Well... She'd accidentally blown herself up.
Ava grumped on the couch for a bit longer before deciding to go and visit Kiku instead of pouting about her failure.
She got up and threw on her jacket, putting her keys and phone into her pockets as she went out the door.
After a nice, calm walk a ways down the street the ravenette was standing in front of Kiku's door. She knocked twice, receiving no answer. With a small sigh she walked around the house and into the back yard.
Her Japanese boyfriend was sitting under his cherry blossom tree. He was sitting in a kneeling position, his hands were folded in his lap and he had his eyes closed and a relaxed expression on his face.
Ava smiled and genuine smile, not her usual stoic look.
She quietly walked over and sat down in front of him, cross-legged. She fiddled with a grenade as she patiently waited for him to finish meditating. *AVA! Don't play with a grenade! At least not around Kiku! You may kill the poor man!*
After a peaceful minute or two Kiku calmly spoke, noticing Ava's relaxed presence sat in front of his.
"Herro Ava. What brings you here?" He said.
Ava chuckled.
"I needed to get out of da house. My sisters were going to start lecturing me on being more careful again. Dat and I felt da need for cheering myself up by visiting my wonderful boyfriend." Ava ended with a toothy, closed-eyed smile.
Kiku opened his eyes and nearly leaped backwards.
"Ava! What happened to you? Your arr wrapped up rike a mummy!" He exclaimed, crawling over to her and grabbing her face in his hands gently.
Ava laughed lightly, leaning her right cheek into his warm hand.
"I'm alright. I accidentally exploded myself and Leah patched me up." The embarrassed Flixian rubbed the back of her neck. "It happens from time to time. It's usually not dis bad dough."
She nervously played with the grenade in her hands.
Kiku placed one of his hands over hers and the grenade while the other, still on her cheek, raised her eyes back to his.
"You need to be more carefur Ava. I wourd rearry hate to rose you." He said.
She snorted slightly.
"I'm not going to die or anyding. I just may get banged up pretty bad occasionally." She said, placing a gentle hand on his shoulder and smiling.
Kiku sighed and bowed his head for a bit before looking her in the eyes again.
"Okay." He managed a tiny smile which made Ava nod back. "I berieve you."
Ava smiled wider and trailed her hand softly down his arm to his hand.
She gently interlaced their figures. A happy sigh left her as she looked at their entwined hands, enjoying the reassuring contact.
Yeah, stitches sucked and blowing yourself up with your own powers was embarrassing, but if Ava got to spend some time with her lovable boyfriend afterwards then it wasn't such a bad day after all.
