Ares smiled when he heard her gasp, he was not repelled when he felt the stiffness of her body, of course, she was tense, it was only normal to be.

He edged closer, whispering a low “relax” into her ear.

Slowly, one after another, he felt the muscles in her body, relax as she let herself accept his touch.

She felt a little cold against him, and he instinctively held her closer, pulling her deeper into the warmth of his body.

Laying there spooned together, their bodies felt like they were meant for each other.

Absentmindedly stroking her arm with his thumb, he heard her sigh one more time before her breath even.

Slow, calm, and deliberate breathing escaped her, and he knew without looking that she was fast asleep.

A smile painted his face again as he looked at her sleeping face, he preferred her like this, asleep and peaceful, without a care in the world.

She snored a little, and it sounded like music to his ear.

His brain could not construct a tangible word to describe his feelings at the moment.“What do you want, Eve?” He asked. “Oh nothing, Ares,” she said, “why would you even assume that I want something from you?” She asked, feigning surprise.“Because it's you, Eve, you always want something.”“Not this time, I just called to let you

This can’t be happening, how did I mess up so bad, he kept asking himself.Ares kept scolding himself for making such a mistake, his phone vibrated on the table, indicating a call.And it was the one person he was trying to avoid speaking to, the guilt he felt could not let him speak to her for fear that she might hear his sins through his voice.“Sara” he called into the receiver.“Ares, I’ve been trying to get a hold of you. What’s going on?” Her voice was laced with concern, the Ares she knew would be over the moon about her sight.Yes, he had seemed happy for her, but he was not his usual self and his energy seemed off too, but she was so occupied by the happiness of the moment that she had let it slide.“Are you okay, you just disappeared after yesterday?” She asked.“I’m fine, Sara, How are you?” he answered, sounding nervous.He may or may not have been a bit of a coward and had run away as soon no he could, he had s

I cannot do this alone, I would rather not do this alone.”His lips stretched in a smile as he ran a hand through his hair. A heavy sigh of relief escaped his lips as he reread the words.He decided to call her instead of texting, he needed her to say that to him, and he wanted to be certain she wanted this too.The phone rang twice before she answered.“Still with the ring twice rule?” He asked. “Very much so.” Came her curt reply. “What do you want, Ares?” She asked. “I wanted to be certain you wanted this.

Brushing her teeth lazily as she sat on the toilet bowl.Tearing her pajamas off her body when she was done, she trudged into the shower Putting on and letting the cold shower cascade down her back. Exhaling sharply as the cold cut through her skin, giving her goosebumps. It was precisely what she n
