"I-I, don't know." I answered, wondering why I had. He saw my expression and his eyes softened.
"I am just not used to people caring for me, is all." He looked at the ceiling, where a pattern of stars had been painted. "My family, if you could call them that, were not very caring. My mother hated me, and I did my best to stay away from her. My father almost killed me, when I was only a day old. My siblings, they tried their best to torture me, but I was the one who caused them unbearable pain. I always looked up to the stars, and wondered what it felt like to love or be loved. Then I found you, while I was watching from here, and I couldn't stop thinking about the little girl who protected her siblings from her father." He turned to look at me. "Your heart was pure, and you were innocent, so I left clues for your mother to find and come to you. I watched you for years, seeing you try to leave the place without leaving your siblings. You loved, you loved them with all your heart, and you protected them.
"I couldn't stop thinking if you were the one who would teach me of love. The only things I loved were the stars and poetry. I watched Selene and Helios grow closer and more powerful together, and I knew I could never do that with my own siblings. I needed to love, and be loved, to be able to rest. You showed me that." He paused, his eyes silver once again, no pain or sadness within them. "You showed me how to loved, how it feels to love, and I cannot stop what I feel for you. I hope to be loved the same way."
I could not bear the space between us anymore, and I reached out, my hand wrapping behind his neck and pulling him closer. I felt his lips on mine, cool from the water, and I felt him relax against me. His arms wrapped around my waist, his hands moving up my body. My arms were around his neck, my hands and fingers tangled in his soft hair. His lips opened under mine and I opened mine, feeling something wet and warm on my tongue. I melted against him, my hands going from his soft hair to his waist, going up to his bare chest against me. His hands went up to my hair before shaping my body, the fire burning through me. His hands went to my waist once more, his fingers under my thin shirt and touching my bare skin. I shivered at his touch, but I kept going.
I dug my nails into his sides, a low growl emanating through his throat. His teeth nip my lower lip, making me automatically moan into his mouth. He smiles against my lips, the ends of his lips rising. His hands travel under my shirt, feeling and shaping my body. I pull him on top of me, his body going above mine on the bed. The first time we kissed it had been like a spark, but now, with him on me, a flame ignited by the same spark.
His mouth moved to the corner of mine, his lips passing over my chin, my collarbone, my whole neck, to the soft spot of my neck, where my neck met my chest. My fingers felt moist, and I moved them from his sides to his back, my nails scratching his bare skin. He growled into my chest, before moving his hands up, pulling my shirt up with them. I slid my arms up, and my shirt was lying on the floor beside the bed. I pushed my palms against his chest savagely, and he pinned them against the bed, both arms on either side of my head.
His lips came back to mine, and I pulled him against me, the bare skin of his abdomen and stomach against mine. He kissed me wildly, my thoughts scrambled by his touch. I pulled on the belt loops of his jeans, and in seconds I had torn off his belt and thrown it onto the bed. Astraeus pushed me into the bed, his knees around my hips. His body was arched over mine, his hands on my hips. I gasped in his lips when his long fingers gently slid under the side of my jeans. His lips swirled wildly against mine, me tearing at him like my life depended on it.
He wasn't to be outdone, though. His teeth bit down on my lower lip, drawing blood. I shuddered underneath him, and a moan escaped my mouth when his lips went to the side of my neck, biting the tender skin there as I felt something warm run across it. His tongue felt relaxing and yet adrenaline-inducing, running it over the bite that had started to bleed.
Then he rolled me on top of him, his legs still wrapped around my waist, pinning me against me, not that I minded. As he kissed my neck I ran my fingers across his chest, digging them in when he bit under my collarbone. We both moaned until he moved his mouth back against mine, melting me faster than metal in a forge. The fire had grown inside of us, him tearing at me with his teeth while I did to him with my short nails, making sure to dig them in to draw blood. His tongue wrapped into mine, making me surge against him. I scratched his shoulder blades as he deepened the kiss, pulling me against him.
I pulled away from his hot lips as I bit them both together, Astraeus shuddering under me. I let my lips glide over his chin to his collarbone, biting down hard enough to draw blood. I smiled against his skin when his bitten down nails dug into my sides. I moved back to his lips when he bit down on my shoulder, blood flowing freely from the wounds all over us. I pressed my fingernails against the front of his chest, leaving deep scratches that made him dig his into my shoulders, the smell of blood and salt and citrus all around me.
I couldn't stop. I couldn't think. I couldn't do anything at all, but let my body react against his. I felt him scratch my skin under my jeans, near my hip, and I gasped against his hot mouth that tasted like salt and blood. This couldn't be happening, it must be a dream.
I pulled away from him, digging my palms into the bedsheets before closing my hands into fists with the sheets keeping my nails from digging into the palms of my hands. "Astraeus." I gasped, my chest breathing raggedly. Astraeus was breathing as hard, maybe worse, as me. I looked at his body, scraped with blood all over him where I had torn at him. I never knew I could do that, I couldn't ever do that if I was thinking straight.
"Blossom," He said, in between his heaving gasps for air. "I never knew-, you could play dirty."
"I didn't know-, either." I replied, trying to think straight. "Astraeus. We shouldn't-" I tried to name what we had been doing, but voicing it out was harder than it seemed.
He let go of me, his hands and fingers leaving my hips and jeans. I stumbled backward on the bed, my brain not responding to what my body had almost made me do. He sat up, his face in his bloody hands. "I'm sorry, but I just couldn't stop. It's only the second time, and I almost tore your clothing from your body." He murmured, his words only understandable a bit behind his fingers. "It's just, after tomorrow, you have to spend with him." He pronounced the last word coldly, making sure that I understood that he hated the idea of me with Hyperion, a titan who was nothing like the thoughtful one in front of me.
"I know, we couldn't stop ourselves, but we did now. We should-" I couldn't say the last words, thinking they would sound a bit cliche to him.
He said it for me with a smile. "'-take it slow'?" I nodded and he did as well. I looked at him, scars all over his body where I hadn't torn at him.
"I can sleep on the floor if you want me to, and you can have the bed." He shook his head, and before I could protest, he had his arms around me as he pulled me on top of him, my chin on his chest.
"I think you can be mature enough to sleep in my arms without fussing." He kissed my forehead, leaving an imprint of where his lips had been by blood. I put my hands on his chests, and for the first time since I came down to Tartarus, felt safe enough to sleep.
