"Loker," Ria's voice whispered. Loker's eyes opened from his sleep. Ria was sitting on the end of the bed, but Loker was staring at the blanket under him.

"What?" he asked.

"I just got home," she murmured, touching Loker's knee and sending tremors up his body. Loker got her intentions.

"Right now?" he asked. He looked at her. Her eyes were burning with lust and they were pleading. Her hair was swept over her shoulder and she looked stunning.

"Yes," she whined. It was the most beautiful sound in the world to Loker.

"No," Loker insisted. Ria licked her lips. Loker shuddered.

"Don't do that again," he cautioned her. She bit her lip and leaned over Loker. He realized that he had the disadvantage being the one who was sprawled out on their bed.

"Please?" she whispered, her sweet breath tickling his face.

"N-No," Loker found it harder to resist her. She licked her lips again without thinking. Loker sighed.

"Eli," She pleaded. She rested one gentle hand on his bicep. He lost all of his will power. He brought her head down to his.

"How do you always get what you want?" he asked her when they had broken that first kiss.

"Because you love me," Ria smirked and kissed him again.

Ria woke up with Loker's arm around her waist. He kissed the back of her neck in greeting.

"I was pretty stupid last night," He announced.

"Why?" she asked.

"I hesitated when I had you begging to sleep with me," Loker said in bewilderment. Ria kissed him.

"Yeah, that was pretty stupid," she smiled.

"Well I gave in eventually," he defended

"I knew what I was doing," Ria sighed happily.

"I'm I going to have you begging me again tonight?" he asked hopefully.

"Maybe," she teased him.

"Hey, I know your weakness now," Loker reminded her, kissing her neck.

"Yes, but I know yours," she murmured, turning to face him so she could stare into his eyes.

"What?" Loker asked her when he saw her expression.

"I love you," she said.

"I know, you told me that once," He smiled.

"I love you still," she shrugged. Loker's grin doubled in size.

"Huh?" Ria asked, looking at his grin. Loker pulled her close to him and smiled into the kiss he gave her.

"I love you too," Loker said when he pulled away. There was a knock on the door.

"Who's there?" Ria called out.

"Lightman. And for Pete's sake, get some bloody clothes on," Ria and Loker could practically hear Lightman's eyes rolling.

Ria and Loker erupted in a fit of laughter and bliss.
