 Elder Quad
Axel looked at her playfully and chuckled. "Oh you know full well what I'm trying to say, Missus Phoenix." Oh yes, he loved calling her that. He did wish they had their father's real name, kudos to Valencia, but he knew it would just turn into something nasty with the Ministry and that's the last thing he wanted. The only contact he wanted, and had, with them was for them to tell him what his mission was that day. That's it. And he had what he wanted. Why would he screw it up?
Laughing lightly, the young man nodded. "You're right. There's absolutely no way I'm going to the hospital today. Hmmm..maybe tomorrow," he teased, nudging her slightly. "Alrighty, let's get to work." He stood up, heaving a sigh and pulling her with him. He began walking down the stairs, his hand never leaving hers.
"Wait," he turned around to face her on the fourth stair. "Did you call me a goofball?" He couldn't help but laugh at the ridiculous nickname. "You're very clever, you know?" he chuckled, giving her a small peck on the cheek.
Walking into the kitchen, Axel grabbed a basket from the counter then went to the back door. "I'm off." He smiled at her once more before he disappeared into their backyard to pick fruit and chop some wood. "Holy potatoes! It's hot out!"
