Twenty One - lovey dovey shenanigans

Samuel was sitting at the hospital pick-up point, pressing an ice-pack against his chest. He had called Mick to grab him a change of clothes and pick him up from the hospital. The doctor had told him that no bones were broken and gave him a wrap for his chest to speed up the healing. 

"Hey, blondie. Get in the car." Mick shouted from his car. "Sorry I'm late, I went to go get groceries because you dropped them all on the ground." 

"Thanks." Samuel got in the car. 

"Change your top, that sweater's got a tear in it." Mick tossed Samuel a t-shirt.

"I loved this sweater." Samuel grumbled as he changed. 

"What did you do to wreck your sweater, get eaten by a giant hamster?" 

"Did you see what happened on the news?" Samuel asked, ignoring the last part of his question.

"You mean you got beaten up by that Static chick?" Mick smirked.

"No, it was the Titanium iron man wannabe who blasted me." Samuel snapped.

"Hey man, what you did just now was really respectable, risking your life to protect those people." Mick smiled, putting his hand on Samuel's shoulder. 

"Wait, I didn't tell you about that." 

"I saw it on the news, they were interviewing a lady who said you got an old man out of danger."

"Oh." Samuel let out a breath.

Hopefully no one else witnessed my ice powers besides that Static lady or the Titanium person.

Samuel was surprised to see Virgo standing in front of his door when Mick and him made it back. When Virgo spotted them, she ran over to Samuel and wrapped him in a hug. 

"I'm just gonna leave you two here, while I put these groceries in the room." Mick told them as he backed away slowly.

Virgo squeezed Samuel tighter in the hug until Samuel let out a yelp of pain. 

"Oh I'm so sorry." Virgo pulled away, rubbing his chest gently.

"It's fine." Samuel smiled, rubbing the back of his head. "I'm fine."

"I brought you some cream to help with the bruising. Mick told me everything." Virgo pulled a bottle out of her pocket.

"Thanks. I..." Samuel began.

"Do you even know how dangerous what you did was? You could have died! You should have been more careful. This is the second time you've done something so life-threatening!" Virgo cut him off, a small tear forming in her eyes.

"I'm so sorry for doing such dangerous things. But because of this experience, I realized how unpredictable life could be," Samuel gripped her hands and took in a deep breath, "which is why I want to ask you if you want to be my girlfriend." 

Virgo's eyes brimmed with tears as she nodded vigorously. 

Samuel gently wiped away her tears. "I love you."

"I love you more." Virgo whispered back, placing her arms around his neck.

"I love you 3000." Samuel murmured, gazing longingly into her eyes and sliding his arms slowly to her waist.

"Shut up." Virgo chuckled, playing with the hair on the back of his head.

"No you." Samuel whispered, feeling her rapid heartbeat as he pulled her against him.

Their faces were inches apart and Samuel could feel her warm breath on his face. Virgo leaned forward and tip-toed to let her soft lips gently brushing against Samuel's. With his heart racing in his chest, Samuel closed his eyes and kissed her back. 

"Called it!" Mick yelled, peeking his head out from the door.

In surprise, Samuel stepped back, abruptly ending the kiss and accidentally pulling Virgo forward. Virgo being pulled backwards on tip-toes sent her falling into Samuel. Samuel not expected her sudden impact pushed him off his feet and falling onto the ground. Virgo fell on top of him, accidentally knocking her forehead against his chin.

"Wow Virgo, what a way to sweep Samuel off his feet." Mick joked.

"Shut up." Virgo scowled at Mick. 

"Are you ok?" Samuel smiled affectionately, rubbing her forehead.

"I hope so." Virgo laughed, rubbing his chin.

"I think you might need to use the bruising cream as well." Samuel chuckled.
