Thanatos
The God of death, the God everyone loathes, and yet the one everyone longs for at the end, the God they cling too, seek comfort in, the God all the others forget about and yet... Olympus itself would fall without him.
He's lonely... under...

"I missed you today" Thanatos said, glancing at me from his canvas as I lay before him A smile broke across my lips, one I was determined not to let out but escaped nonetheless I could not help but look like a love sick child in awe of someone so out of reach
And yet Thanatos was mine I had the privilege to call this man my own And I still felt like a fool chasing him after all this time of us being a couple
I still felt that nervous tingle in my chest whenever he looked at me When his eyes raked over my body on the bed before I lost his attention back to the painting I wanted him to look at me like that forever
I wanted him to notice me for more than a romance "Thanatos" I said, earning a hummed reply to go on I stood up, nearing him as I worked up the courage to do what I was about to.
He finally looked at me His dark irises back on mine "Everything alright?" He asked, setting his paintbrush down and stepping forward so I would not see the painting I nodded, feeling my hair bounce over my shoulders.
"I just..." how could I explain it? That I wanted us to become more intimate That I knew within our boundaries we would not exactly be... doing such things other couples would But that I craved his lips against mine.
I braved the embarrassment, and leant forwards, gently bracing my hands against his chest and connecting my lips with his Softly kissing the boy in front of me The boy I had been in love with since I was a child Pining after him And now every kiss we shared was a shocking reminder that I had him
That I owned the heart of the lonely boy I would constantly dream of
He kissed me back, slowly grasping hold of my cheeks, before he pulled away all too soon, brushing the hair from my face before I finally opened my eyes again "So beautiful" he muttered I leaned in again, only to be held back Only to feel rejection sink deep into my bones and freeze them. Freeze me entirely.
"Macaria we... we said we would not get carried away with ourselves" he said "I know" I said "But we live in hell Than, it is natural to sin every now and again" I said boldly, hoping I would sway his mind.
He stared at me with a surprised expression, one that told me he did not think I would ever try to lure him into a wrongful action "Thanatos, please" I said quietly, taking hold of his face in my hands, as his sat patiently on my waist I kissed him, pressing my body against his in a desperate attempt at some sort of reaction.
And I got one As he finally caved Hesitating only for a moment before he kissed me back with equal vigour His tongue slowly gliding along my bottom lip before it danced with mine This was different than before.
