7.

Marisol wakes up in the garden on Wraths chest.

His arms are wrapped around her and he's snoring softly. His chest feels nice, like two pillows made of marshmallows.

Sitting up a bit more, Marisol looks up at Wraths face. He looks peaceful, he doesn't look as angry, the lines have softened and his perpetual frown is gone.

She smiles and lays back on his chest, snuggling close to him again and waiting for the man to wake up.

Eventually he did, moving a bit with a grunt and he opened his eyes, looking down at Marisol who smiled,

"Hey sleepyhead" she said and Wrath hummed, rubbing his eyes,

"Hey Mari" he said, yawning a bit, "could have woken me up"

"You seemed like you needed the rest" Marisol said, shrugging and Wraths lips twitched at that, a large hand coming to tuck some of her hair behind her ear.

Marisol smiles at that, gently fixing the flower crown that's still perched on Wraths head and he looks at her. The look isn't like anything that he's shown before, it's soft. Caring.

Before Marisol can think too much of it, she hears someone clear their throat and the two look over.

There's a young man. He's pretty tall and kinda lanky with floppy black hair and a soul patch on his chin, he looks a little awkward.

"Uh-am I interrupting any-"

"What do you want Pride?" Wrath asks, raising an eyebrow at who Marisol assumes is another Sin.

Pride looks a bit awkward, "Uh-The Queen wishes to speak with Marisol...alone"

Wrath frowns a bit but nods, "I assume you've been sent to escort her?"

"...Yea"

Wrath looks at Marisol, "Well...I'll be around Mari".

Marisol nods, slowly getting up and heading over to Pride who looks at Wrath, looking a bit scared before he walked off quickly. Marisol followed after him.

The two walked in silence for a while before Pride spoke,

"He...really seems to like you" he said awkwardly,

"He does?"

"Yea...he's not that gentle with anyone else, never has been" he looked down at Marisol, tilting his head a bit curiously. Marisol swallows a bit and keeps walking.

The two make it to the Queen and Kings room. Pride knocking and a voice comes from the other side,

"Who is it?"

"It's Pride your majesty! I've collected Marisol"

"Send her in!"

Pride nods to Marisol who bites her lip nervously. Sterling herself, she pushes the door open and heads inside.
