"My lady" Will walked into her room with a concerned face "you okay it's almost midday and you're still on the bed?" He asked.

"I feel a little weird Will" Athena said under her blankets. Will went and sat on her bed and pulled her blanket down, she covered her face with her hands. Will slowly pushed her hands to the side and touched her forehead it was warm "you're having a fever" he said looking at her.

"Ahhh" she said giving a deep moan.

"It's okay. I'll make you hot soup with some herbs and after your rest, you will feel brand new" he said as he stood up and left for the kitchen after making her the soup he fed her. Which Athena had happily, she didn't mind Will feeding her she was too tired to move her hands. "Take some more rest. You will feel better and if you need me ring this bell" Will said as he handed her a bell and left. He didn't go far from the house and kept on checking Athena every once in a while. She seemed better now and as the sun went down he made supper for them, he handed the meal to Athena who had dinner from her bed. As supper was done Will made a medicinal tea for Athena. "Thank you" she said merrily as she took a sip of the warm tea.

Will gave her a warm smile "feeling better?" He asked. "Yes" she nodded. Then she kept the teacup on the stool nearby and tossed her long wavy silver grey hair behind. She ran her fingers through her hair arranging it. Will looked at her in awe, she was beautiful beyond words. He didn't know how to even explain her beauty. "Will" Athena called shaking him out of his dream state.

"You are so beautiful" he said as he looked at her.

She blushed a bit "you think so?"

Will nodded his head "everyone says so" he smirked. She pressed her lips and chuckled "you are funny Will". Then he came forward slowly and touched his nose with hers she giggled "what are you doing?". "Nothing" Will murmured as he sat on the bed in front of her.

"If you sit on my leg like that,  I won't be able to move" she chuckled. Then he realized he was sitting on her leg but he didn't notice because her legs were hidden under the blankets "sorry" he giggled as he moved a bit to the other direction.

"So, is this your home?" He questioned awkwardly.

"Really? You're asking me this now?" She giggled "Yes, Will this is my small cottage in Singapore. I've seven cottages in and around the seven seas even if I don't live in them".

"Really? That's kind of awkward but cute" He chuckled.

"But now since I've to live on land. I'm happy that I've my cottages around" she smiled.

"Do your heart linger for the sea?" Will asked.

"Not really and yours?" She asked.

"I've everything I wanted and more, what more could I want" he said looking at her. She gave him a sheepish smile as she hugged a pillow. "If your always on the sea. I presume you are sleeping on this bed for the first time after you stepped on land" Will smirked.

"Yes" she pressed her lips "but to be honest I love sleeping on land more than the sea, it's motionless and calm" she exhaled.

"You don't like movements?" He chuckled.

"I do like movements but when I'm asleep, I don't like rocking here and there like I'm sleeping on a cradle" she giggled.
