MHA # 2 | Tuesday Afternoon

[knife_bender]

For all of his outward confidence, there was a little part of Diego that was nervous for Annie today. He knew she had everything to be part of a big superhero team, but her universe had some weird ideas of what a superhero should be. So, yes, he might have been doing some anxious pacing around the apartment waiting for her to get back.

At least with this audition over he could stop feeling guilty when he ate something that wasn't kale around her.

[For the girl!]

"Like I have no bones?" Annie guessed, lazily arching up to kiss him and feeling herself blush anew.

She was maybe a touch self-conscious about being all talkative, even if she knew it was welcome and that she'd, like, barely scratched the verbal-bossiness surface.

"Like you're happy," he said with a smile. "And relaxed."

He was getting another kiss for that. "Thanks to you, I am both very happy, and very relaxed," she agreed easily, reaching a hand up to lightly run her thumb along his jaw. "Give me a second for my legs to work and we can keep relaxing in bed?"

Where it would be a lot more comfortable to eventually, inevitably fall asleep.

"Great plan," he said. "I'd offer to carry you, but I don't trust my legs right now either."

"Good," Annie said, looking quite pleased about that. "Raincheck on carrying me, then, and we can help each other get to the bed. Teamwork."
