Chapter Text
"..I don't know." There was laughs coming from the kitchen. "For the past eight years..this day has been a day of grief and horror for me. And today..is the first day in years that we've actually celebrated today." Tandy put her hand on his. They began to glow sending a warm thrill through there bodies. The front door opened and Brigid waved at them, she had two big paper bags in her hands.
"Hey guys." she held out the bags. "I have something for both of you." she handed them the bags. Tandy pulled out a white shimmering body suit with a small dagger sewn into it.
"A costume?"
"It's not 'a costume.' It's a suit."
"For what?" Tyrone asked pulling out a black leather bodysuit.
"For when you, y'know, beat the bad guys."
"Like a superhero?"
"Yes, exactly like that! Cloak and Dagger fighting crime!"
"We're not superheros." Tandy put the suit back in the bag.
"You are now. You guys think you were the only one's affected that night?"
"From what it seems like yeah."
"For now, but who knows how safe we really are."
"I don't think so." He put the suit back in the bag.
"Look, just keep it okay? Just in case."
"Where'd you get these anyway?"
"A friend."
"Guys, food is ready."
Brigid bolted into the kitchen.
"You think we're superheroes?" Tandy asked.
"More like visual-ante." He got up to go to the kitchen.
"Ty?"
"Yeah?"
She stood up and hugged him. There was a little light in between them as if to pull them apart, but Tandy found a way to push through it."..thank you..for everything." he looked at her, touched. "It may not seem like it, but you saved me." the hug was long and intimate. As if the world didn't exist when they touched.
"That food smells really good." Tandy admitted sniffing the air. "What is it mashed potatoes and gravy?"
"Yeah." he chuckled. There was more laughs coming from the kitchen.
"Ya'll better come get this food before it's all done!" Clarisse yelled. They looked at each other before running into the kitchen to make a plate. Today they sat at the dinner table in the dining room. Which s something they haven't done since Billy died. It was nice having this much company. Everyone seemed to be enjoying their time together. Until..the house shook in place. It sounded like there was an explosion a few blocks away. Sirens passed by there house as everyone sat in silence.
"What do you think that was?"
"I don't know.."
"Sound's like a job for Cloak and Dagger.." Brigid mumbled. Tandy looked at Tyrone and they got up to put their suits and cloak on.
