Upon seeing him again, she immediately pulled his collar and yanked him right up close to her. Pix kissed him on the lips, then after a long moment she caught herself. She pushed him back again. Her hands slid into the pockets of her hoodie; it was a colder spring day. It was only a second, but her face gave away her shock at her own impulse, but after that second it melted into anger. She glared at him.
“Where the fuck were you for however-the-fuck-long? Some short notice would be nice. Even a little fucking note. You’re lucky I had hours or else something might’ve happened to Ron. Who I took total care of, thanks. Even got him to my place since all I could get out of the suits was ‘extended absence’. You’re welcome, asshole. You do NOT know how badly I want to shoot you in the fucking knee caps right now. Hell, I probably SHOULD. Where the fuck did you go for, like, a fucking WEEK?”
In short, she had been very, very lonely without him around.
Danny wasn’t sure whether or not should he be surprised because of the kiss; he had been gone for a while and it felt really weird to get something like this when he got back. Had something happened? Probably not.
After hearing the stupid rambling from Pix he shrugged. “Just needed a fuckin’ break of some stuff.. Went to see my mom. Had a nice time home. Actually forgot about the battlefield for a couple of days, yeah. That’s what happened”, he explained, not really feeling that awful about being absent or anything.
“Sorry”, he said, sighing. “Just wanted some time alone with myself and someone really dear to me. Like my mom.”
