Stefan lies on his back and Artemis rests on his chest. He strokes her hair and she looks at him with her big, sparkling gray eyes, shining with happiness and contentment.

Stefan: What? Why are you looking at me like that?

Artemis: Nothing. I'm just trying to figure out if you really exist or I've just been in a wonderful dream.

Stefan: That's what I should be wondering about, baby. Not you.

Artemis: You liked it, huh? I mean ...

He shushes her, touching his fingers to her lips.

Stefan: You don't have to explain to me what you mean. I know it.

Artemis: And what? How do you feel? Are you satisfied?

Stefan: I'm more than that. I'm complete. For the first time in my life, I feel whole.

Artemis: I feel the same, but you said for the first time in your life. Why did you say that? Did you never feel that way with her?

Stefan: With who?

Artemis: With Aphrodite.

Stefan's face takes on a serious expression.

Stefan: No. Never. I always felt like I was missing something and I didn't know what it was.

Artemis: So, why did you stay with her for four years?

Stefan: To tell you the truth ... I don't know.

She leans her head against his chest.

Artemis: Or you just don't want to tell me

Artemis: Or you just don't want to tell me. That's all right. I understand that.

Stefan: No. It's not that. I want to tell you. I want you to know everything about me, but I really don't know how to answer that. If you had asked me then, I would have told you that I loved her, but now that I've met you, I've realized that what I felt for her wasn't love. It was something else. Dependence? Deception? Stupidity? I really don't know. What I do know is that I've only known you for a few days and I'm feeling emotions I never thought possible. From what I've heard, what I'm feeling must be love, but I don't want to rush into anything. But although I can't yet tell you exactly what those feelings are, I'm willing to find out with you ... If you want it too.
