my last one-shots had lots of upsetting aspects to them so when the_quiet_jade requested a little Lloygan from Forgive Forget I jumped at the chance to get into some fluff. So let's begin!

Warning because I have absolutely no plan for this whatsoever so things could get messy
Double warning cheddar popcorn ahead!

Lloyd has dealt with many emotions. His own and the ones of others. As a leader he was empathetic and compassionate, always ready to help bear the burdens of others. But as a boyfriend that also meant working through many mood swings that came his way.

He has seen happy Reagan, laughter and spontaneous romantic acts kept her that way. They'd sit on the couch and have movie nights or go out on hikes together. There was always so much love.

Lloyd has also experienced sad Reagan, various things could make her sad like the death of her grandmother, a movie, or maybe something particularly disturbing on the news. Wrap her tight, pile up as many blankets as she wants, make sure she knows that he's there for her.

But angry Reagan was something totally different. It was fragile and Lloyd was reeling of the stress from his lack of knowledge on the situation. Of course she's been angry before but there was been very little times where she has been this angr at him and usually he knew why. But as Reagan steamed and slammed things around in their shared apartment, Lloyd locked himself in the bathroom and quickly pulled out his phone.

He debated on who to call. Lloyd has almost never seen Cole's girlfriend, Siena, angry, the sweet girl had a beautiful character trait called 'keeping her cool' and 'knowing how to be well behaved' that only ten percent of the human population were able to achieve. Gwen has been angry many times. He's seen her yell at football players on the television and destroy Wu's tea pot. But Zane was very hard to understand and Lloyd wondered how long it would take him to figure out the cryptic nindroids words. And then there was Kai and Isla. Lloyd has seen her angry many times. She wasn't an angry person. She was just in a relationship with a dummy who did a lot of stupid stuff. So maybe asking the dummy wasn't the best idea. Lloyd pondered over what to do for a second longer and winced as the sound of something smashing was heard.

Finally his fingers scrolled through his contacts and hit a number.

"Hello?" A female voice asked after a few rings.

Lloyd peered through the key hole, barely making out his girlfriend's shape as she moved down the hall.

"Hey, Nya." He said in a hushed voice.

There was crackling on the other line, the sound of his friend moving the phone around and turning it to speaker as she did something.

"Why are you whispering?" Nya asked quizzically. "Did you finally grow out of those stupid graphic novels and go get a real book at the library?"

"What? No!" It came out too loud. "I mean- no."

"Then what's going on green-bean?"

Lloyd pinned the device between his shoulder and his cheek as he grabbed some towels off of the counter and began stuffing them by the crack under the door in attempt to muffle their conversation.
