Henley Reeves and Tobias Eaton
District 3 - General electronics
Henley’s hands moved swiftly as she disassembled the broken transit radio. Her nose twitched as she sought out the problem. Ah, there it is.
A strand of hair fell into her eyes and she blew it away. She checked the drawer next to her. No. The one below that one? Also no.
“Hey Tobias, could you hand me a new cable? I’m all out.”
“Sure. Ow!”
Henley startled and looked up. “What—?”
Tobias shook his hand to get the feeling away.
“That’s the fourth time I got shocked today.”
Henley laughed. “Aww, poor boy.”

Tobias glared at her. “Careful now. Or you might find yourself on the receiving end of a knife flying your way.” Even as he taunted her, he searched for the cable she needed.
The redhead merely scoffed. “As if you would dare to hit me.”
“You wanna try it out, then? See who chickens out first.” He had no doubt she wouldn’t chicken out. But she was wrong that he wouldn’t hurt her. Maybe he would let the knife cut some of those red locks off.
Tobias grinned at the image.
