A/N: Xephmadia. Xephos is awoken from a lie-in by Lomadia's favourite owl. But, why?
The sound of hooting filled Xephos' head. He blinked his eyes a few times, seeing the familiar owl sitting on his chest. He smiled, stroking him gently. The spaceman sat up, glancing at the window. Slightly open; just enough for the small owl. The sunlight streaked across him from said window. It looked like it was morning but not too early. He looked at the bed beside him, seeing nothing.
"Did Lomadia send you?" Xephos looked at Mr Owl. He nodded, hooting a reply. "She wants to see me? I wonder why. Maybe she just wants me to stop being lazy." He laughed. Mr Owl hopped off, standing on the bed where his master, and her partner, slept. He pointed towards the door, hooting. Xephos stood up, smiling. "Ok, ok. I get the hint." He replied, quickly changing into his clothes. He held his hand out for the owl, who hopped on. Xephos put Mr Owl on his shoulder before he left. His mind was already wondering what Lomadia wanted. Probably nothing special; just some help with something. He jumped down from their tree house of sorts, landing on a branch below. Xephos repeated until he landed on the ground. He watched as Mr Owl took off, leading him. He had to run to keep up. You wouldn't think he could fly so fast, being a small owl. Xephos jumped over roots to make sure he didn't trip. "Lomadia?" He called. Mr Owl also hooted for his master. The two soon emerged from the forest, the beach connecting to it. Xephos walked to the water's edge, blinking. He glanced up and down the shore, seeing nothing. "Are you sure she's here?" He turned to the owl. Mr Owl nodded. Xephos sat down, shrugging. "Well...she's not here anymore." He closed his eyes. 'I wonder why she isn't here...'
"Surprise!" Lomadia leapt on Xephos from behind, the both of them tumbling into the water. She giggled, her arms wrapped around Xephos' neck. The spaceman sat up, now sitting in the water. "Did I get you?" The owl keeper asked. Xephos smiled, his arms wrapping around Lomadia's wet body. Water was still running from his own face. They were both as wet as each other, so they didn't care about getting each other wet.
"Yes. Yes you did, Lomadia." He heard Mr Owl hooting, glancing over. "You were in on it too? I should have known!" He smiled. Mr Owl nodded, hooting happily. Xephos stood up with Lomadia in his arms. He walked away from the sea, sitting down on the sand. "Was that all you called me out here for?" Xephos asked, sitting Lomadia on his lap.
"Well, no. I just thought we could do things together today. Instead of you either going to the others or sleeping, we could spend time together." She explained. "That sound like a plan to you?" She asked. The spaceman glanced out over the ocean, watching the waves. He then smiled.
"Sure. Why not?"
A/N: There will be a second Xephmadia. I've already decided that. But not yet. I've gotta give the other pairings a chance~ Or...if there's a different pairing (a maleXfemale pairing) that is liked more, then I might change it to them. So, would you prefer another Xephmadia or a different heterosexual pairing? If it's a different pairing, then I might put it up next.
