When Eddie and Volt came home from work, they found you sitting on the sofa, staring at the turned-off television, with tears streaming down your face.
“Oh, my sweet spark, what happened?” Volt asked, rushing to you immediately with Eddie not far behind. You reached out to him, letting him pull you into a tight embrace.
“Stupid movie made me cry…” you mumbled. Both Eddie and Volt let out relieved sighs.
“You poor thing,” Volt said, just a hint of teasing in his voice. “Your heart’s just too big for your own good, isn’t it?” You nod and bury your face into his shoulder, letting out a shuddering breath. Eddie sat down next to you on the sofa and began rubbing your back soothingly. He pressed a kiss to the top of your head.
“That’s why we love you, though,” he said.
You turned to look at him. “‘Cause I’m a crybaby?”
Eddie laughed softly. “No, hon. It’s ‘cause you’re compassionate.”
“And sweet, and loving,” Volt added.
“And kindhearted, and caring.”
“And hard-working, and determined.”
“Alright, alright,” you interrupted them. “You’re gonna make me cry more.” They both chuckled. Long moments passed in quiet as they simply held you and comforted you and loved you, but when thinking about that made you tear up again, you decided to break the silence.
“Can we watch a happy show now?” you asked.
“Of course, live wire,” Volt said, pressing a quick kiss to your forehead. “Anything you’d like.”
Eddie kissed your head again, too, before standing up. “I’ll go make the popcorn.”
