"You're right." She sounded almost defeated. It was unlike her to just give up and admit Mai was right, but she had done it, so it was time for her to take a step back and try to make amendments.

Shay blinked and smiled as Mai handed her the present, heart warming to see that her lodger had gotten her a present. The thought alone touched Shay, but when she opened  the present up to see not only the perfect book for her, but the tickets for her and her wife, a soft gasp escaped her lips. She covered her mouth with her hand before looking over at Mai and wrapping her in a quick tight hug. She stepped back quickly and cleared her throat“Sorry, I know that’s not really your thing, but it was just…Thank you. Honestly and truly Mai, thank you.”

Thanks for feeding my ego, kiddos :3 And I'm glad I'm not the only one who knows all of it, because it would make me kind of sad if I was, tbh. It was my favorite for like 2 years after it came out.

Shay wasn’t expecting the punch otherwise there was no way she would’ve ducked it. She stumbled slightly as the punch connected but was almost instantly on the defensive. Shay hooked a leg behind Mai, and slammed a forearm into her stomach before shoving her back, tripping her and sending Mai into the floor. Shay was on her an instant later in a crouch, the majority of her weight pinning Mai’s legs down. One leg pinned Mai’s wrist to the floor and Shay had her other wrist in her hand. Once Mai was pinned, Shay turned her head and spat to the side, watching as a bloody mass flew out. She raised and eyebrow and looked down at the agent in her charge. “Good hit. You’re not getting another.”

"Okay. Wait. Did I-- Did I do something wrong? I mean--"

Shay raised an eyebrow at Mai, wondering what on earth she was talking about, when Mai pointed to her neck. Her eyes widened and she quickly slapped her hand over the bruise. “Dammit Audrey” she grumbled before looking up at Mai with an embarrassed smile. “Um. Sorry, my wife she can be-” Shay cut herself off “You know what never mind, I’ll go take care of this, sorry and thank you!” Shay said quickly before nearly running from the room, her cheek bright red from embarrasment.
