"Good morning sleeping beauty. Rise and shine! Go get ready, I'm making breakfast!" Philia woke up her boyfriend Francois with a kiss. He opened his eyes hesitatingly, squinting against the bright was the morning after the first time they'd made love. Francois had taken her out to a dance club and they both returned to his place drunk but completely aware of what they were doing. Amazingly, neither of them had a bad hangover.

Philia was now comfortable in Francois' two-floor flat. They frequently made each other meals in his high-tech kitchen and had movie nights similar to the one they had three weeks ago, only with a lot more… interaction. She had constantly been debating on when to tell him that he was in love with a goddess. One thing was certain; it would have to be soon. Because it was her first mortal love, both of them were falling for each other hard.

By now, Francois was up. He said sleepily, "Nu-uh, I'm making breakfast. You can go have a shower." Philia now had a drawer of clothes in his bedroom. She shrugged and went off to get ready. Little did she know what he had planned.

Francois was flipping blueberry pancakes when she came down the stairs. He smiled at her and picked up the platter piled with food and set it on the table. He opened a carton of apple juice and poured them both a glass. (He had been very surprised when he put a glass of it in front of her or the first time and she shouted, "Nectar!" and glugged the whole thing down. He hoped for the same reaction every time- it was a good laugh- but she obviously learned from experience) Before she sat down, he pulled her to him and said, "I want to ask you something." She nodded. "How much do you love me?" "What is this Francois?" "Just tell me." "You're the love of my life." "Then how about spending the rest of your life with me?" Philia gaped. He got down on his knee. "Philia Peterson, will you marry me?"

Philia spluttered. "Bu- Phil, you don- I… I can't."

"Why not?" he asked with a kicked-puppy expression.

"You might want to sit down."

"So, what you're basically saying is that you're a Greek Goddess?" Francois choked on the last two words.

"Hera, to be exact."

"Whatever you've told me so far has been… a lie?"

"Y-Yes." She said sadly, remorsefully.

"But why?"

"You know my hus-husband Zeus, right?" He nodded. "I was sick of his ways. He took me for granted and had affair on affair. So a few weeks ago, I pretty much told him to stuff himself."

"Good on you." He smiled weakly.

"I came down thinking to give him a piece of his own mind. The only thoughts in my mind were those of revenge. But then… I met you. You were unlike any other mortal I'd ever encountered. I knew I was in danger of losing my heart to you and yet I plunged into this relationship headfirst. I was jaded after centuries of being pushed away by him in favor of lesser mortal women. You-," she looked him in the eyes," you brought me back to life, in a way. And for that I'm forever indebted to you. You are the first mortal to ever make my heart flutter." She smiled wryly.

"Listen Philia- Hera, I really do love you and even after this I do want to be with you. But I understand if you don't want to be with me anymore. I won't stop you from going back to Olympus."

"I-I don't think I'm ready to face everyone just yet."

"Then you want to be with me?"

"Yes, I do." She smiled. "But Francois, you do realize that I'll have to go back sometime right?"

"All the more reason to enjoy what time we have." He leaned forward to kiss her.

A/N: I received a review asking me to not make it too lovey-dovey. I'm afraid you'll have to bear with it for now but let the girl be born. I have some great stuff planned! :)
