Aaron's POV
I looked over to Aphmau. She was quietly crying. I hugged her, and she sighed.
"I'm sorry that I yelled at you." I set my hand under her chin.
"I'm sorry I wasn't thinking about your feelings..." She sighed.
"You have to promise me something," I begged.
"What is it?" She asked.
"Let me help you. You saved my life. Let me save yours." I kissed her.
"I promise you can help me." She hugged me.
"Ok, thank you. Now, I know you have a lot of work to do, so let's go home." I smirked.
"Alright, let's go." She grabbed my hand. We walked back home and she walked over to her desk.
"Uh..." I looked down at the mess from the previous night.
"C-Could you help me clean this up?" She asked.
"Yeah, I'll give it my best shot." I shrugged, holding back from throwing up. It made me nauseous to be near someone else's blood, but it was worth a shot. I got a towel and began trying to clean up. Most of it was dried up, but we still tried. I looked down at some of the papers that had her blood on them. It was paperwork for Zane's execution.
"I was so stressed, and it got the best of me." She sighed, looking over at the papers I was holding.
"It's alright. We'll work on this later." I hugged her. She smiled. I picked up the papers that were stained, and I threw them away.
After I finished, I sat down at her desk. I picked up a paper and began writing.
"What are you writing?" She asked.
"I'm rewriting for the paperwork. It needs to be done." I continued writing.
"You don't have to do that. I can help you." She pulled up a chair.
"It's fine. I know what needs to be done." I shrugged. After a bit, she looked over at me.
"How much more is there?" She asked.
"It's ready. All it needs is a reason for death, the way he's being killed, and your signature." I slid it over to her.
"Ok," She said. She began writing when she looked up at me.
"What?" I asked.
"I feel wrong..." She looked over at me.
"It's alright. It needs to be done." I kissed her cheek. She sighed and continued.

I sat looking over at Aphmau. She was sitting in her chair quietly, looking down at Lilith. I stood up and walked behind her, setting my hands on her shoulders. She smiled up at me.
"Hey, Baby." She grinned.
"You are so precious." I began to massage her shoulders. I felt her relax under my touch.
"I love you." She sighed in relief.
"I love you more." I smiled and continued massaging her shoulders.
"Hold on." She stood up and kissed my cheek. She walked by me and set Lilith down in her crib. I smiled as I looked at the gorgeous woman I had all to myself. She walked back to me and kissed my cheek.
"Why don't we move this to the bed?" I smirked. She blushed.
"O-Ok..." She looked down. She walked over and lied on her stomach. I sat next to her and began to press my hands on her lower back.
"Mmm. That feels good." She moaned softly. I smirked.
"Oh, yeah?" I chuckled.
"Can you work a bit lower?" She smirked.
