She had sent that letter to the High lady.
All she could hope she wouldn't get caught, the wedding was in a week, she was making her way to Eris's room.
She bid the guards a chirpy hello and then walked in, they had gotten used to her. Rhea was sitting beside her firstborn. Eris was sleeping and Rhea was singing softly. None of the other boys were to be seen. She bid her a hello too and then sat down.
"How is he?" Lilliana asked
"He's fine, he woke up and had breakfast before sleeping again." Rhea said
Lilliana nodded.
"I have to go see his father, just don't let him..."
"Yes, um...if he asks i won't tell him." Lilliana said and Rhea left.
She got up and took a book to read form the shelf, she sat down again beside Eris, opened her book and began reading, it was about Ice.
Questionable? Yes.
She was so focused on reading she didn't realize she was playing with his hair. The red hair so soft. She turned her head to look at him and when she did, he was looking up at her.
She moved her hand back.
"Please do that again." He said
She hesitantly did again.
"How are you?" She asked
"I'm fine, though my arm hurts." He said
"But don't leave." He whispered
She nodded
"Just saying I still am not talking." She said though the words felt like a lie.
"Why." He asked
"Because what you did; launching onto your brothers with a kill order in your head. I don't appreciate you killing my brother in laws." She said
He was blinking
"Brother in laws?" He whispered
"I'm marrying you, aren't I?" She said
The corner of his mouth turned up.
"Yes." He said
"But if I am taken to the market, to get muffins and also with a promise of a visit to the lake. I might talk." She said
"I promise." He said and grinned
"Stop grinning, you idiot." She said though she herself was smiling
He didn't stop grinning
"You don't like Felix?" He asked dulling her smile
"Felix? No. Why would I like him?" She said
"Not zane? Sirius?" He asked
"Eh no. They are like my brothers." She explained
Eris nodded
"What are you reading?" He asked
"A book." She spoke
"What book?"
"It's on ice." She told him
"On ice?"
"About Ice." She said slowly
"Oh, that one." He remembered
"Why do you even have one?" She Asked
"I...got it when my father told me about our marriage. I wanted to learn about you." He said
"About my magic, not me. If you wanted to learn something about me, you could easily ask your sources." She replied
"Touché."
"Where is Zane?" He asked
"Why?"
"I just want to know about the whereabouts of my brother." He said shrugging as he sat up.
"I have no idea, perhaps doing what he does." She said
He nodded
"You know you are the epitome of dumbass." She said
He looked offended
"I think what you meant to say is epitome of beauty and grace." He whispered
"I will punch you in the face." She whispered back.
And an arm snaked around her waist and pulled her.
And soon enough she was pulled under the duvet.
"Eris." She gasped
"Punch me in the face?" He said
"I will."
"Try me."
"I won't, well I won't do it right now, if I do, your nose won't be as straight." She whispered
"Someone likes my nose." He whispered
She felt his breath on her cheek. His arm was still around her waist.
"I think I like your eyes more." She whispered back
"No I like your face." She said
"Admit it you like me a lot." He whispered
"Your face is pretty." She admitted in a whisper
"I really like your eyes." She whispered
"Yours are beautiful." He countered
"Hmm."
"They are a beautiful blue."
"They look cold." She said
"A lovely cold."
"But I admire that mouth more." She whispered
"Flirting are we?" He teased
"Shut up."
"Can I hold your hand ? It looks too heavy for you." He said
She raised an eyebrow.
"Do you have a map? I'm too lost in your eyes." He whispered
Another eyebrow rose.
"Shut up, you can't even." She was looking for the word
"Can't what?" Asked
"Make me blush." She completed
"Darling I don't need an innuendo for that." He said
She scoffed
And as if on cue, he pulled her closer and closer.
Maintaining eye contact had suddenly become difficult, not because she was being squashed by his arm, but because she couldn't help but realize that she had gone red, a blush had creeped up her neck.
"I hate you." She whispered
He grinned
"I told you." He whispered
"You annoy me." She scowled
"I may annoy you but you love it." He said
She frowned even though her mouth was morphing into a smile.
He placed a small kiss in the corner of of her mouth before hugging her and closing his eyes.
She was blinking, shocked at the whisper of a kiss.
Her heart was racing. She knew her cheeks were red. She tried to normalize her heart beat but it felt impossible.
Eris then hugged her and closed his eyes. Though his mouth had a smirk plastered on it. She snuggled close to him and fell asleep.
" I do like you a lot." She whispered thinking he was asleepHe himself was grinning, his heart too was racing, his heart was doing happy dance. He won her over. She snuggled close and hugged him, her eyes fluttered Shut. He was going to marry her, and she didn't like his brothers. Oh he was happy.
Her pale skin was adorned in a blush.
She didn't know but she looked beautiful. H didn't know how to describe this feeling, this feeling of happiness? Whatever it was, he just wished it wouldn't be taken away from him.
He didn't want her to be taken away.
