On the Avengers' side, the five newly joined members were undergoing intense training.
Meanwhile,
Rhodey looked at Daisy, who had a crying face, with a speechless expression.
"Tell me, how did you manage to get yourself injured just from training?"
Rhodey said, applying medicine to Daisy's arm, in an exasperated tone.
It turned out that,
Just a moment ago, he suddenly heard a scream from Daisy in the gym.
Rhodey, thinking something had happened, immediately teleported into the gym, only to see Daisy covering her left arm with tear-filled eyes, looking pained.
"How did you do this?"
Rhodey asked her.
Daisy pointed to a pile of dumbbells on the floor.
Then she told him that she was experimenting with a new move, and she accidentally injured her arm.
Rhodey was completely speechless.
Could new moves with no certainty be tested randomly like this?
Didn't she know to take it little by little first?
Subsequently, Rhodey examined Daisy's arm and found that the bone in her left forearm was slightly cracked.
Fortunately, she stopped in time, so the problem didn't become more serious.
Now it was just a small bone fracture.
If it had broken, it would have been even more troublesome!
Soon,
Rhodey bandaged Daisy up, and he also put two splints under the gauze to immobilize her forearm, so she wouldn't be tempted to move it around.
"Don't move around these next few days, and rest well, understand?"
Rhodey got up, put the medical kit back in its place, and then poured a glass of Water and handed it to Daisy.
"I'm injured, I can't move."
Daisy wiggled her bandaged arm.
Rhodey, "..."
Only your left hand is injured!
Although he said that, Rhodey still brought the water glass to her mouth.
"Drink."
Daisy smiled and took a sip, then said, "Rhodey, I'm hungry!"
???
No, it's only a little past 1 PM, and you're hungry less than two hours after lunch?
Rhodey felt that Daisy was doing it on purpose.
She just wanted to take the opportunity to boss him around.
However, seeing her pitiful look, Rhodey couldn't say anything.
After a while,
Rhodey came over with a bag of potato chips.
"Eat."
He said.
Daisy looked at her injured arm, then raised her head and looked at Rhodey with tearful eyes.
"Alright, alright, I'll feed you!"
Rhodey gave in, tore open the potato chip bag, took out a chip, and brought it to her mouth.
Crunch ~!
The crisp sound of the potato chip rang out.
Daisy's eyes narrowed into a slit with happiness.
Next,
Rhodey was again bossed around by Daisy to do many things.
She was either thirsty one moment or wanted some other thing the next.
Rhodey endured it, considering she was an injured person.
But in the end, she even wanted Rhodey to carry her back to her room to rest.
Rhodey gritted his teeth and endured it again.
However, as soon as he put her down,
Daisy said again that her arm was bandaged, and she couldn't change into her pajamas herself, asking Rhodey for help.
Upon hearing this, Rhodey couldn't tolerate it anymore!
So he severely lectured Daisy.
He only stopped when Daisy cried and begged for mercy.
By this time, it was almost 1 AM.
Daisy had fallen asleep dizzily, a happy smile still on her lips.
Rhodey, however, felt very energetic.
Although lecturing Daisy had taken three or four hours, he wasn't tired at all.
But seeing that Daisy was already asleep, Rhodey thought about it and decided to let her off for today.
"Sleep!"
Lying down and closing his eyes, the room quickly became quiet.
...
The next day,
A little past 8 AM.
Rhodey hadn't even opened his eyes when he felt something brushing his nose.
It was a bit ticklish.
Opening his eyes, Rhodey saw Daisy smiling at him.
"You're awake!"
Daisy leaned beside him, resting her head on Rhodey.
"Why are you awake so early? Don't you want to rest more?"
"I can't sleep."
Daisy looked up at him.
"Rhodey, what kind of relationship do you think we have now?"
"What do you think?"
Rhodey countered.
"No, I want you to say it!"
Daisy looked at him.
"Given this, what else could it be?" Rhodey gently patted her little head and said, "From now on, you are my Rhodey's little girlfriend!"
Hearing this, Daisy's face also showed a happy expression.
But soon, she pouted and said, "Why 'little' girlfriend? Where am I 'little'?"
Cough, cough~!
This shouldn't be said, or something might happen.
However, Daisy was certainly not small at all.
Rhodey could prove that!
"But, should we keep our relationship a secret from Gwen for now?"
Daisy suddenly said, "I'm not mentally prepared yet. What if Gwen gets angry?"
"Don't worry, Gwen won't get angry."
Rhodey said.
In fact, Rhodey felt that the intelligent Gwen probably already saw through his little intentions.
She just didn't expose him.
So;
Even if Gwen really found out, at most she would just hit him, and after hitting him, her anger would dissipate.
"No, I'm still a little worried. Let's not tell Gwen yet. How about we tell her when I'm mentally prepared?"
Daisy shook her head, saying she was really a bit afraid to face Gwen now.
After all, she was essentially a third party, wasn't she?
That's so unethical!
And Gwen was so good to her.
If it weren't for her true inability to control her emotions, Daisy would never have done such a thing.
But...
Facing Rhodey every day, Daisy found it really hard to resist his attraction to her.
Perhaps even Rhodey himself hadn't realized his special attraction to the opposite sex.
But Daisy, who was with Rhodey all day, knew it all too well.
Otherwise;
She wouldn't have done something that betrayed her good sister!
It's all Rhodey's fault!!
