In a family of hunters, it was almost considered a crime not to have some secret lair in your house for weapons and training and whatnot, though the one in Xavier's uncles' house had become less secret since all of Xavier's friends knew about it (though Xavier's list of friends wasn't exactly extensive). But it had become one of Lia and Xavier's favorite hangout spots in the house considering his uncles' refused to go down there ever since Kylie died, and Abby didn't go down there whenever the two of them were there unless she was invited at risk of awkwardness. Perks of living with your best friend, right?
Either way, whenever Xavier invited Lia over he always went down there to get in a few minutes of practice before she showed up. And that's exactly what he was doing today, repeatedly shooting arrows at a worn out target waiting for his love to walk down the stairs to meet him.

Lia wanted to talk to Xavier. She had an idea but she didn't know how he'd react. She walked into his house. They dated long enough for it to be normal for her to just walk in. She knew wherre he would be so she wenr downstairs. She enough he was there. She leaned againsr the wall and watched him sholt a bit more befoew finallu speaking up. "You sure look sexy when you do that, " lia teased.

Xavier was too far lost in his own head to hear Lia coming in. He was almost frightened when she spoke up, but he played it off well by turning and grinning at her. "I do what I can to please you," he said with a wink before putting his bow down and crossing the room to meet her. He kissed her quickly then asked, "So how are you today?"

"I'm good. I haven't been up to much just thinking." Lia sat down and began to toy around with one of the knives to distract herself. She looked over at Xavier. "What about you? " Lia asked she didnt know how to bring up ehat she wanted to bring up.

Xavier shrugged, taking the knife from Lias hands without a word. He didn't like the idea of Lia playing with weapons, and he was afraid shed hurt herself. "Nothing really. Chilling with Netflix and cheetos." Xavier usually didn't account the time he spent training into his life when he talked about it. He was so used to never being able to talk about it.

"Xavier I've been thinking.." Lia trailed off. She looked at the knife Xavier was holding. She then glanced back up at him. How would he react?" She pursed her lips. She figured he'd react badly. "I think i should learn how to use a weapon. Sometjing simple like a gun," lia braced heeaelf for xavier's reaction.

Xavier was definitely caught off guard by Lias question. "You what?" he said. Xavier's first instinct was to turn her down. He didn't want her involved in any of that part of his life. "First off, a gun is definitely not simple. Its one of the most deadly weapons I know how to use. Secondly, no. You're not getting involved in that life. Ever. The only reason I'm still involved in it is to protect you and Hope." Xavier was a lot less selfish than he led people to believe. All he really wanted was to make his family happy and proud, though that was becoming increasingly more difficult.

"I didn't say I wanted to become a hunter," Lia said. She rolled her eyes at Xavier. She looked over at him. "I just want to be able to protect myself. I'm not always with you and Preston, " Lia said. She stood up and looked Xavier in the eye.

Xavier raised an eyebrow at her. "Who else are you ever with?" he said, almost teasingly. But Xavier understood where she was coming from. Everyone around Lia had some way of defending themselves except her. Even Skylar had taken up swordsmanship after the kanima attack. What Xavier was afraid of was that she might end up hurting herself in the process of learning. Xavier had suffered plenty of injuries in his time, many of which might have killed him if he weren't so lucky. He just didn't want Lia getting hurt.

Lia sighed and just looked over at Xavier. "What about when I'm alone?" Lia asked. She raised an eyebrow at him. "What happens when someone decides that, that is the perfect Timw to come over and kill me? How would you feel?" Lia asked.

Xavier sighed. "I'd be terrified," he said, realizing that Lia probably did need yo know how to protect herself. "Look, I'll teach you a few basics, but nothing too dangerous, okay?" The whole idea made Xavier extremely nervous, but he'd probably feel better about it later.

"I just need something to defend myself with," lia said, in the midst of6 months she watched her fekend die, her beat deiend lose her family, her other friend betray her, her best guy friend run away and her brother and niece get kidnapped. Lia just wanted to protect herslef. Sje didnt want to feel helpless espically since so many bad things were happening.
