Amaya nodded weakly, not actually finding the motivation to get up herself. She didn't want to get up yet, or go call the doctor for the matter. Riley just found out the cold truth about having powers and it hit her hard like a punch in the gut.

"....Alright...Yeah, I think we can do that....Thanks again....Bye...." Adrian sighed as he hung up the phone. "Well, whether he wants to find out or not at this point, he's going to." he said as walked over to place a post-it note with the appointment time on the fridge as a reminder.

Giving him a weak smile, Amaya nodded, still sitting on the couch. "Least he'll be done asking us for a while..." She murmured.

"And the weekend was starting off so well, too." Adrian sighed as he plopped back down on the couch next to her. "Finish up one bout of drama just to start another."

"Think it'll ever stop?" Amaya asked softly, staring ahead of her as she laced her fingers together.

"I hope so." Adrian said putting an arm around her shoulders and gently pushing her head to rest against his shoulder. "Cali will be gone in a few months, and Riley's only going to get older. Drama's bound to calm down then."

"Then why do I feel like this is just the tip of the iceberg?..." She asked, curling up to him and pulling her knees in close. "I keep feeling like something bad is going to happen.."

"Because we're mutates that are always going to get the s**t end of the stick at some point or another." Adrian said bluntly. "Kids or not, we're always gonna screwed over by life and saddled with drama.

"You know just what to say..." She muttered sarcastically, still staying curled up to him.

"If I said the alternative and told you not to worry, would you have believed me?" Adrian asked as he wrapped a wing around her.

"No...but still...waiting for whatever this is...I don't like it. It makes me nervous and scared for whatever is coming..." She told him, frowning now.

"We'll be fine." Adrian assured her. "We've been through so much crap that whatever's coming--if anything--will be a cakewalk."

((I don't understand why I have to write a critical review...I know how to find a good article and make sure it's legit...))
Though she nodded lightly, at this point Amaya hardly believed Adrian. She'd taken a lot of abuse over the years both mentally and physically, and she was nowhere near as good a fighter as she used to be when she was in the ring. Age and old injuries had slowed her greatly, though only she really knew that fact, it still concerned her to think if something happened, wondering if she'd be able to still protect herself and her family.

"We'll be fine, you worry too much." Adrian assured her as he gave her a kiss on the head.

"You don't worry enough. I have to worry twice as much just to keep up the average." Amaya muttered.
