One kiss. The barest touch of lips against lips, and Ralph pulled back immediately.
Bullet didn't have a chance to say anything before the door opened.
"Hey, guys" Fixit acknowledged them dismissively as she walked through the living room of the abandoned house they were living in, Bugler followed her closely. Fixit had her nose buried in a book, probably about electricity as she was trying to get the generator they had 'borrowed' to work.
"Fixit, what are you doing back so early" Ralph asked. Fixit looked up at them, as if seeing them for the first time.
"Bugler finished his book report pretty fast" she said. "I checked out some books from the library and thought I'd do some work on the generator, see if we can't get that thing up and running. We might need to steal some more wires though. Do you know where Zero is" she said, all in one breath.
"He's at work" Bullet said.
"I'm going to stop by there later, see if he can't get a good price on some light-bulbs." Fixit looked at them suspiciously. "Something wrong"
"No, no, no" Bullet and Ralph replied quickly.
"All right then. Come on, Bugler, let's go get some dinner, and you can tell me all about school" Fixit said. Bugler nodded and followed her out of the room. Ralph smiled.
"Who ever thought of Fixit as the maternal type" she asked. Bullet laughed. They both sighed and looked away.
"Never speak of this again" Bullet asked.
"That sounds great."
