Upon arriving at the basin, he clicked on another switch, causing the wheelchair to slowly raise itself till it was at a perfect height for them to brush their teeth. Naturally, he let Xavia brush her teeth first, but before he could grab his own toothbrush after she was done, she quickly grabbed it first.
“Nope! Just open your mouth and let me brush your teeth for you!”
“…You do know that my legs are the ones injured, not my hands, right?”
“Don’t ‘hey’ me… This is what couples do for fun!” said Xavia before parting his flawless lips and gently placing the electric toothbrush against his teeth.
In all his life, Zivon had never had anyone brush his teeth for him, so this new experience was rather… odd. However, it wasn’t unpleasant either… His train of thought was cut short when he heard Xavia add, “Hmm… You’re pretty clean-shaven right now, but just leave the shaving to me from now on, alright?”
…When was the last time she had treated him so considerately…? After a brief pause, he couldn’t help but ask, “…You’re not trying to secretly assassinate me by slitting my throat with a razor, right? Like in those dramas?”
Squinting slightly, Xavia retorted, “Of course, not! I was just trying to get closer to you! But if this is how you see me, I may as well suffocate you with a towel right now!”
