I couldn't think. Hell, I couldn't breathe. Sheogorath, the Daedric Prince of Madness, was kissing me! Sheogorath could sense my trepidation and broke the kiss, scowling slightly.

"I'm giving what you want," He growled lowly, "You could at least enjoy it."

"I am," I whispered gently, "It's just...unexpected."

"You're a nice girl." He said with a wide smile.

"And you're a nice man." I replied with a laugh.

His fingers brushed against my cheek, and they were surprisingly soft, completely unlike what I thought they would be.

"We'd better get back before Haskill gets suspicious."

He nodded and I got up to leave when he screamed, "PIGGY BACK RIDE!"

Before I could say no, he leapt onto my back, causing me to grunt and hoist him up. Thank the Gods I have wide hips so I could easily support him.

"Mush," He cried, "To the throne room!"

I sighed and walked into the throne room with the Daedric Prince giggling and jumping on my back, yelling for me to go faster. I sighed and ran around the throne room about two and a half times before collapsing from exhaustion.

"That was fun!" He squealed.

"Maybe for you." I panted, trying desperately to catch my breath.

"Your turn." He said and squatted low, knowing full well I don't jump well.

I smiled and got up and jumped just as he moved out of the way. I was nimble, so I didn't fall.

"That wasn't funny!" I pouted.

"You're right...it was hysterical!"

"Now you're just being mean again!"

I always felt like a little kid when I was around him, which was god considering I was twenty eight and had grey hair already. He squatted down again and I jumped on his back, and this time he didn't move, and he ran around the throne room, making sputtering sounds and making me laugh like I was eight years again. He ran back into his room and told me to open up a drawer and grab some clothes, so I did without question, and we sped back into the throne room and he told Haskill we were leaving for the "swimming spot". It sounded like fun, so we ran out the door and to the small town of Hale. He waved at the denizens and talked to one Khajiit woman. She beckoned me over and Sheogorath explained that she would let me change in her house. He handed me the clothes he told me to fish out and I walked inside with the woman. It was actually a two piece bathing suit, so we were indeed going swimming which excited me. It was hot in the Isles today, so a swim would be lovely. I finished getting changed and walked outside where Sheo helped me tie up the back.

"Ready?" He asked.

He must have been wearing a bathing suit underneath because he was changed already, and I beamed wildly.

"Whenever you are."

He smiled and hoisted me up on a rock, which was VERY high up from the water. I squealed in fear and clutched onto Sheogorath. He merely smiled and pushed me forward, in which case I cast a spell that would enable my feet to sink in the earth and remain there, unmoving.

"Don't be such a pansy," He complained, "It's not that bad."

"You go first." I protested.

"No way. How's about we go together?" He suggested.

I dispelled myself and stood up straight, looking at the scenery and sighed gently.

"Alright, we'll go together."

He smiled and grasped my hand tightly, and I looked out to the sea and smiled reluctantly. He looked at me and smiled warmly, moving a little closer to relax me.

"On the count of three." He whispered.

"One.." He started.

"Two.." I replied.

"THREE!" We screamed together and jumped, still holding on wildly for control.

I screamed half out of fear and half out of excitement. When we hit the water with a painful splash, I lost Sheo's hand and sank to the bottom. I swam wildly to the surface, gasping for breath as Sheogorath laughed behind me.

"Wasn't that fun?" He asked, swimming closer to me.

"Yes it was." I replied and held his face in my hands.

He kissed me again, and it felt just as wonderful as it did the first time.
