Andy was distracted when she started doing it. Clearly the meeting with Reeva and her sisters took it's toll on her and she needed to find a outlet for her stress and frustration that would also relax her. She found it in feeling his hair and sort of petting it. Andy was blushing when it started but in mere moments he felt drowsy and happier. He didn't say a word about it.

" Thanks. My sister's told me I was going soft and Reeva contemplated something awful. Doing this was like a little oasis in a sea of cruelty." She told him softly.

It became a regular occurrence and thing between them. At first it just happened now and then privately in his room but even in meetings or during missions it happened. It was a good stress reliever for when they disagreed with others or one of them was a little scared. Everyone had their own reaction to it.

" Your petting Andy like a cat every time I frustrate you it's just weird." Lorna stated once when she found Andy's head on the lap of the telepath. He was alseep with Esme still softly feeling his hair. Esme merely rolled her eyes and continued to do so.

" Could he leave the room?" Sophie and Phoebe asked in unison." It's hard to concentrate with your barely sixteen year old stress reliever on your shoulder."

" We all have our ways of dealing with things." Esme told them looking at Andy with a smile.
