Heavy breathing. The two lovers finally rest after one more bout of passionate sex. Caelus and March have been devouring each other for a few days now with little breaks. The entire world was forgotten to them, there was only their bodies and the increasingly daring ways they explored their limits.
At first they were careful, discreet, but it didn't take long for them to throw caution to the wind. Any attempt to hide their intimate relationship was meager at best. Those concerns have left their minds, which were now only occupied with how to best pleasure each other. Once or twice, however, their lust would subside just enough for a moment of more rational thought.
"I've never been this happy before. Hehe, I'm glad you found out how I felt about you, Caelus." March says, cozying up to him under the pink blankets of her bed.
Caelus' eyes widened with the sudden realization that they still hadn't talked about how he found out. Their mouths have been too busy with other tasks, and too tired to do so during the short downtimes.
He sits up, as if awakened from a trance. "March, I still haven't told you anything! We completely lost track of time... of everything!"
"Wow, you're right! How many days has it been? Look at us, two love birds completely head over heels for each other. Hehe." she says, being cheeky with her tongue sticking out.
"Yeah, but we really gotta talk. I think it's important that you know the whole story."
"Alright," she replies excitedly, "I'm actually pretty curious to know how you did it. You weren't peeping into my room, right?"
"No, of course not!"
"But you did think about it, didn't you?" March asks with a wicked smile.
"I mean yeah, but I would never do that! I swear!" Caelus replies, trying not to start another intense round of correction.
"I know, you silly goose. Just tell me already."
"Alright, it will sound crazy, but it's all true..." Caelus tells her everything, not leaving out any details.
She looks at him with intensity, doing her best to absorb all of the information. "Wait, wait wait, pull back a minute. Do you mean Himeko and Welt... they're together?"
"Yeah, I guess."
"This whole time?" she asks with a mixed hint of shock, anger, and excitement.
"Maybe? From everything I just told you, that's the shocking part? I will admit I was pretty shocked too, but now it doesn't seem that important."
"Caelus, don't you get it? Do you have any idea how many times they sent Dan and I ahead in expeditions to scout for information before you joined? Or that time in Belobog when we were fighting for our lives and they stayed here for no reason? We could have died! You literally got impaled by Bronya's mom! And all because they were busy scrambling each other's brains!"
"Now that you mention it. I guess they didn't expect it to be that dangerous. Are you upset? I don't really blame them though, considering what we've been doing."
"Me neither!" March laughs, "I'm just angry they hid it so well. They act so normal in front of everyone. I guess experienced adults like them are just different."
"I don't know. When I was listening to Ms. Himeko's mind I could tell she was happy, but... it also felt off, like something was missing." Caelus says, trying to remember any details.
"Well, we can think about that later. Anyway, let me see if I got everything right. You can see people's minds by touching them. An Aeon no one ever heard of gave you that power to follow their path. Erosyd... Erosydine?"
