"There is no true love without jealousy, so don't scold me for hating the men near you. I am jealous of everybody who is with you when I'm not with you."

"Practice dancing with me!" Athanasia asserts to Lucas

"Practice dancing with me!" Athanasia asserts to Lucas. Her golden locks fall over her shoulder, the blush-colored ribbon tying her bangs.

"No," was Lucas' blunt answer, leaning his head against his hand. He was biting into a juicy red apple, lazing around on the floor with a pillow being his only support.

"I think I might end up dancing with my Dad at me and Arius' debutante," Athanasia tells him. 'I'm pretending like that won't happen though,' her thoughts show the truth.

"But we have a big height difference, see?" Athanasia makes a gesture with her hands, her arm not long enough to reach her father's exact height. "I'll be wearing shoes with pointy heels, so what if I step on him?"

"So, you're asking me to turn into a grown-up just so I can practice with you?" Lucas asks for confirmation, holding onto the apple core.

"Yep." Athanasia nods her head, sitting down beside the ruby-eyed Magician. "Weren't you around the same height as my Dad back then?"

Athanasia remembers how Lucas held Raven at a distance she couldn't reach.

"Even if not, you can just make yourself around that height, right?" She concludes in her request.

Lucas puts on a disgruntled expression, his brows furrowed. "Huh? Why would I..."

"Realizing he wouldn't agree, Athanasia prepared her counterattack. "Dear Lucas, most powerful being in the whole world and the prettiest boy-warlock in all the realms!"

Flowers began blooming.

"Won't you please? Hmmm?"
