A Lost Galaxy One shot.

Kai has to realise at some point, you cannot live life fully by the book, and Leo is the one to teach him.

Terra Venture Lab.

"Steady... Steady..." Kendrix's hand continued to tremble. She slammed the pliars down on the counter next to the circuit board she had offered to repair for Damon and glared up at the person opposite her over her glasses.

"Kai." She hissed, "Repeating steady is not helpful."

"Sorry." The blue looked away shamefully, "I thought it- I just wanted to help." The brunette began to move away from the desk, "I-i'll go. Maya might want help with flower arranging or whatever she is doing."

Kendrix sighed and softened, "Kai, don't worry about it. Just- this is intricate and with you distracting me-"

Kai grinned, "So you admit I'm a distraction?" And wiggled his eyebrows suggestively.

Kendrix ducked her head away in an attempt to hide her reddening cheeks. She couldn't stay mad at Kai for long, especially if she wanted a decent meal that night. She coughed, hoping her voice wouldn't show any signs of flustering or bashfulness.

"If you want to be helpful," she grabbed the pliars again, "You could take that," she nodded to a large motor-like device in the corner of the room, "To Leo. He's been bugging me about it for a while now."

Kai perked up at having the opportunity to amend his mistake, after all mistakes meant failure and he wasn't a big fan of that. Every action required over thinking and a detailed plan on how to get the outcome he wanted.

"I can do that." He moved over to it and picked up the motor, "What's it for anyway?"

"Upgrade on his jammer." She returned to the circuit board, eyes narrowed in concentration and her hand finally steadied. Kai took this to be the end of their conversation and left in search of Leo.


Leo was harder to find then he had anticipated. Kendrix was already mad enough with him, and if he couldn't find Leo then she'd be even more mad. The only way she could get anymore mad was if he went back and asked her where Leo was before smashing the motor in front of her.

Crap! What if he broke it before he found Leo?!

He wasn't usually clumsy but what if today was the day he tripped over his shoelace and landed face first in the motor?! He glanced down at his feet; no, laces tied, he was in the clear.

"Kai! Watch out-!" Kai walked into something rather soft and heard a crack that made his stomach knot...

"No, no, no!" He rapidly began to inspect the motor until it became clear what had broken... The front now had a large, wide line running along the front plastic cover with parts of it falling away, the largest chunk being held up by none other than the Galaxy Red. "She's gonna kill me!"

"Who?" Leo looked at the broken pieces in his hand, "Hey is this..." His mouth dropped open as he realised before the urge to laugh became unbearable. "Do you know how much time Kendrix spent on this?"

"All week!" Kai spoke with panic in his tone; this was not how to it was meant to be! "I was being so careful!"

"You were staring at your feet and walked into me!"

"I was looking for you!"

"On the floor?"

"Well if you didn't vanish every day this wouldn't have happened! Kendrix is going to murder me! She'll get her soldering iron and-"

Leo smirked smugly and shook his head, "When will you just admit it?"

Kai met Leo's dark eyes with a look of confusion, "What?"

"I'm not blind you know, I can see it. You like Kendrix."

"Obviously I like Kendrix, we're friends."

"No Kai, not like that. You like her more than friends." Leo watched Kai squirm slightly, cheeks burning a soft pink that only made the Red laugh, "See. Look, don't worry about this." He signalled to the broken motor, "You leave that to me, i'll sort it out."

"How? You can't fix a motor."

"True, but I'll think of something." Leo took the motor from the Blue, "Kendrix will never know you broke it, trust me. Sometimes you just need to wing it."

Kai looked at the elder man alarmed and tried to snatch the device back but Leo swiftly dodged his lunge. "I don't like this-"

"It'll be fine! Relax!" Leo patted the man's shoulder, "Go make dinner and I'll have this message fixed by then." Leo walked off in the direction of where he knew Damon would be, leaving Kai to stand wordless in the middle of the hall...

Oh boy, was he so screwed.


Kai put the final plate down on the table, hand shaking from nerves. He could just be honest with Kendrix, she'd hate him for a few weeks but she would get over it eventually...

Right?

He sat in his chair just as Leo and Damon walked in. He couldn't even question Leo about it without revealing his screw up! Leo sent a wink across the table to him but it only rifled Kai's nerves further. Suddenly, he wasn't very hungry.

He pushed his plate away and stood to leave when Kendrix entered looking neutral. She locked eyes on Kai, eyes narrowing down to dagger slits...

Uh oh.

"I know what you did Kai Chen." She spoke acidicly, "You- you-"

"I didnt mean to! It just happened and-"

"Ken!" Leo called over, "Damon fitted the motor in but something went wrong and it cracked." Her glare moved to Leo.

"What?"

"It's only surface damaged." Damon reasoned, "I'll get it fixed and fitted tonight."

Kai looked around at the pair with his head cocked to the side. They were pretending it was them? Well... That wasn't his plan but he'd go with it.

"I didn't do it- break it I mean.."

Kendrix looked at him with an expression that showed her confusion was probably as level with his own. She furrowed her brow, "O-kay? That's not what I meant."

"Wait. What did I do then?"

Kendrix face softened into a sweet smile and Kai felt himself relax. "The flowers?"

Maya skipped into the room with a mischievous grin on her face. She sat down beside Leo and whispered something quickly to him.

"Flowers...?"

"The ones you left in my room? And in the lab? You left a note."

"Don't be silly Kai." Maya encouraged as if she had read his mind and realised he was going to deny all knowledge, "I helped you pick them remember? Because you thought Kendrix could do with cheering up!"

Kai looked at the three sat down with his mouth opening and closing as he attempted to speak, but no words were coming out.

"Well it worked." Kendrix told the group, "it brightened up the room enough for me to finish that circuit board. I love them, thank you Kai." She pecked his cheek and moved passed him to the table, her back to him as she sat, "This looks great."

Kai was thankful Kendrix couldn't see his face burning a bright red, even if it meant the other three had a clear view of him getting embarrassed but excited at the same time.

Leo smirked and mouthed, "We're not blind." Before they all turned to their food, Kai remaining rooted to the spot with his hand moving to his cheek.

Okay, so maybe you can wing it and get the reaction you want..
