I held tightly, my body was developing a moist warmth that was quite delicious. Hades was finally taking me somewhere. I had been bored and alone wandering the halls finding little to do, but now he was mine. The souls were gone, his duties done, and I intended to keep him at my side.

He let go of me slowly, unwrapping me from his cloak and I felt the sun before anything else. Finally taking my eyes off my impressive accomplice, I gazed at the most wonderous of sights.

Plains of green grass met light blue sky as far as the eyes could see. I reached out my bare feet to the soft lush meadow and sighed. I looked back to see him standing with his hands behind his back smiling at me. "It's wonderful." He nodded, but his eyes never left me.

I pranced around, delighted in the feel of the green grass, even the smell. Then I lay down against the soft earth. "Did Mother make this?" I asked. He strolled to me looking down, his eyes sparkling and shook his head. "Who?"

"I did." I shook my head, but grinned.

"I didn't realize.. ."

He shrugged, "It's more of a dream than actual garden, but it suits my needs perfectly." He gazed around at the wandering people. They all seemed happy, smiling, some with friends, others alone just enjoying the warm heat and clean air.

I stood up and ran. I ran and ran, my feet barely touched the ground, and I laughed. I looked over and Hades was gliding beside me, a pure masculine smile on his lips. It caught me off guard that he wasn't actually running, but seemed to be gliding through the air and I tripped. Landing softly in the grass, I looked up to find him worried above me. Giggling at my clumsiness, I grabbed him, pulling him down beside me.

"Care to tell me, how you did that?" I asked. He lay on the ground hands on his chest. He shut his eyes and I pinched him. "Were you flying?"

"So many questions little one?" he asked, never opening his eyes. "Why not enjoy what you have asked for?"

I laughed, "Your good at not answering questions." I ran my hand down his cheek, down his chest, grasping one of his hands. He turned to me then, his blue eyes sparkling with pleasure. I leaned forward, hoping he'd catch the hint and kiss me, but his eyes wandered off.

"Come." he said standing pulling me beside him. I followed as he explained how pure it was, how the people couldn't help but feel content in this little piece of heaven, and my heart was aching that he would ignore me in such a way. I was the only one to be disturbed in the Elysian Fields.
