He lay on his back with a softer set of black clothes, still pants and top but they were made in the same silky fashion of the sheets. He hadn't so much as looked at me since he'd lay down. He'd barely looked at me since we'd entered the room. I was getting frustrated with the inattention.
When we'd come back he'd already had a silky gown laid out. Turning my back to him I'd quickly changed and crawled in under the sheets. He'd lay on top and found a place that must have been quite interesting in the ceiling, because his eyes never wavered.
"Okay, I give." I laid my head on his chest and stared where he'd been looking. I felt his chest rise as he took a deep breath. "Where is it?"
"Where is what?" he whispered.
"What your so captivated by up there?" He laughed pulling me against his side with his arm. I felt my toes curl as my body relaxed against him.
"I was going through my head how to make up for today actually." he said. He looked down at me and I smiled.
"How do you plan to make up for today?"
"You ask a lot of questions." he teased.
"Of course, you said you'd teach me." I felt lighthearted, teasing him back. If it were truly a dream, please never wake me I prayed yet again.
"I'll teach you anything you wish to know." he spoke it as solemn as any man taking a vow and I nodded.
"I want to know how to drive a chariot." I popped out with the first extravagant thing I could think of.
He tilted his head to one side, "Your crazy, aren't you?"
I smacked his arm that was wrapped around me, "Hardly any more than you."
"Then my dear, we're both in trouble." He relaxed against me finally, and I felt his chest rumble with his silent laughter. "Tomorrow, you'll be able to do anything you wish. I've got to catch up on some things, but with your mind I'm sure you can keep busy."
"Of course." I shut my eyes, burying my nose into his shirt. It contained his scent, pure masculine magic, and I smiled. "Good night Hades."
"Good night my Persephone."
