White Day ((Open to New Mutants))

[sonoflongshot]

Exactly a month after Valentine's Day came White Day. This year Aiden could not do some of his typical things as Angel was mending from being attacked by anti-mutant bigots. He also couldn't do as much as he used to because he spent quite a bit of time invisibly stalking her attackers and making their lives miserable.

Though he still had things together for White Day. He also had some small boxes of 'obligation' chocolate for his roommates as usual. Though Valeria's was in the freezer until she came back (and he fully believed she would.) He thought that would be appreciated more than leaving it in her lab.

He let Angel sleep in as he worked in the kitchen making a large Southern breakfast from all the recipes he had from Angel's Mom. He had more than enough to cover the other ladies in the building.

He hummed to himself as he checked on his biscuits in the oven.

"Awww, thanks, Aiden!" Caroline said, coming into the kitchen.

Sara peeked over Aiden's shoulder, sniffing the aroma of baking biscuits on her way to the coffee pot.

"So, is it time to EMP their laptops and their phones again yet?"

She gave him a 'don't pretend you don't know what I'm talking about' look.

"Anytime, cousin!" He pulled out the biscuits to let them cool. They were nice and golden brown.

He blinked innocently at Sara. "I don't think they have replacements yet."

While the biscuits were cooling, he turned off the burner under gravy before grabbing the two small boxes of chocolates and handing them out to the two ladies. "Happy White Day! Please enjoy sometime after breakfast..."

"You're trying to say there's something wrong with chocolate for breakfast?"

Sara grinned, and accepted the chocolate.

"Thank you."

She then poured herself a big mug of hot, caffeinated beverage.

Caroline carefully ignores the implications of any EMP-related conversation and appreciatively has breakfast and chocolate. "Everything in its place..."

[sonoflongshot]

"I'm saying so, yes. Particularly when I make you a nice, homemade breakfast." Which he did most mornings in that idle time he was awake and Angel was asleep. He stuck his tongue out at Sara and gave Caroline a grin and wink.

He puttered around some of the fixin's. "I'm gonna take breakfast to Angel in bed, but we probably won't be locked away for the day like all the other White Days. So, what are you two up to for the day?"

Sara sat down at the table with her coffee, then split open a biscuit and drizzled honey inside.

"I don't know. I'm pretty much caught up on everything's that's due soon. It's too cloudy for good sunbathing, Bruce is busy until later tonight... are you sure they haven't replaced those phones yet?"

She sipped her coffee, cast a glance out of the side of her eye at Caroline and winked.

"Maybe some shopping. Or TV."
