I stayed quiet for a few seconds. Not knowing should I admit it or not.
"Effie, I need an answer right now." Luke said slowly. I was still looking in his beautiful brown eyes and opened my mouth.
"I know what you've done." I said simply. His eyes filled with tears.
"Please tell me that you still love me." Luke said with eyes filled with tears. "I cannot lose you. At first I've done it cause he said he could help me bring down the gods. But then you came. And gods gave you nothing so I decided I must do this no matter what. I'm doing this for you. For us. For the kids. For every demigod out there. Please tell me you understand." I took a step that was keeping us from each other and I put my hand on the left side of his face. I connected our lips in a slow kiss full of passion.
"I love you way more that you're aware of." I said and connected our foreheads. "I will love you forever and nothing can change my mind. You done a good thing. Maybe not in the best way but it's still good and I'll help you." I said slowly. Luke just connected our lips before I could say anything more.
Before I could even fight back his tongue was down my throat and his right hand found its way to my throat. I was first pushed against the counter next to the sink. I curled my fingers in Luke's hair. Luke then lifted me up on to the counter. Then he removed his lips from mine. I whined at lost of touch. The next thing I knew Luke's lips were on glued to my neck. He left sloppy kisses on my skin. A few moans escaped my lips that I couldn't hold in anymore. Luke then started sucking on one spot on my neck. It felt so good. But it's gonna leave a mark. Shit. It's gonna leave a mark.
"Luke. Luke." I said as I started slowly pushing him away. Luke jumped back.
"Shit. Was it too much? I'm so sorry." Luke said holding both of my hands.
"No, no, no. Don't apologise it was amazing. You were amazing. If you continue it'll leave a mark." I said. Luke looked down at my neck and his eyes widened a bit. "There's a mark there." I said as I jumped down from the counter I looked at the mirror that was above the sink. There was a mark there. It was purple and it wasn't small but it also wasn't too big. It looked like a bruse. "Well shit."
"Can you like remove it or something?" Luke asked you could hear the panic in his voice.
"Well no. Since I left my makeup at camp." I said touching it.
"How long are you gonna have it?" Luke asked still panicking.
"As far as I know from 3 days-" I started but Luke cut me off.
"That's not that bad." Luke said.
"To 2 weeks." I finished.
"2 weeks?" Luke asked. "What did I do to you?"
"Showed me how much you love me." I said looking at him. Luke blushed at that.
"I think it's best if we stop here. For now." I said slowly.
"Agreed. It wouldn't be good if I got you pregnant right now." Luke joked
"Yeah. I already feel like a mum to the kids. We don't need another child." I said
"Not right now at least." Luke said.
"Not ever probably." I said sadly while looking at the floor.
"I mean if you don't want children that's cool with me." Luke said.
"It's a little more complicated than that.
"Then what is it?" Luke asked.
"I wouldn't be a good mum. I don't know how to be a good mum. My mum treated me like shit my whole life so she could protect me. So I don't know how to be a good parent. I would never forgive myself if I ruined some child's life." I said slowly. I felt Luke's hand on my chin. He lifted my face so we were looking into each others eyes.
"In my opinion you would be a great mom. I see how you look at those kids. You will protect them at sny cost. And to it's what a good mom is." Luke said. I smiled at that and gave him a short kiss on the cheek.
"We should get going now." I said as I took Luke's hand in mine and unlocked the door. "I saw some cool games on the way here. I think it was that way." I said as I went turned right. "Bingo." I said as I saw the basketball hoops. We walked towards them.
"Basketball? Really?" Luke asked.
"Yeah. I'm gonna beat your ass in it." I said as I took the ball closest to me snd threw it in the hoop. I looked at Luke. "Come on give it a try. Or are you too scared I'm gonna wipe the floor with you?" I challenged him as I took another ball and it also went in the hoop.
"Scared of you? In what have you ever beat me?" Luke asked boldly. I gave him an 'are you serious look'. And then said.
"Oh I don't know just like every sword fight in the arena. And you know anything else I can beat you at?" I said confidently. Luke's smirk fell. He took of the balls that was closes to him and threw it towards his hoop. It went around the hoops ring but it went in at the end. He cheered for himself.
"You're so on." Luke said as he threw another ball and it also went in.
"On what? Top of you?" I asked. He blushed at that. I just smirked and threw another ball in my hoop. We played for a while. I was beating Luke at it. Then the timer went off and I won. Luke hugged me and I hugged him back immediately we separated a bit so I kissed his lips deeply.
"Luke?" A male voice near us said.
