"We have got to be careful my love" Thanatos said, his hands ghosted along my waist as he held me
"We are being careful" I insisted, leaning up to kiss his cheek
"Mm, but Moros seems to be on a mission of sorts, he is not letting this go" he said.

"Well then let him run ragged, we cannot feel responsible for his endeavours, if he wishes to chase a non existent reason then let him" I said
"But there is a reason" he smiled, looking down at me.

"Hm, but a reason that does not involve him. I said no because I did not want to go with him, simple as that, he needs to accept that if he wishes to be happy" I said, leaning my head against his chest.
We had been laying down by the tree for hours now.

And as tired as I was, pained by having to get up hours earlier than need be, I would do it all again tomorrow for these little stolen moments we could share
Without being detected
I watched the light slowly rise and shine across the fields, I wish I could watch an actual sunset.

Sit in a proper field surrounded by flowers and watch the sun rise over us
But that would require leaving the underworld
And someone notifying my father that I had left earlier than need be
He would wonder why, he would wonder why Thanatos was with me.

It would be a disaster
But I would settle for this, just because I was with him.
Just being with my love
"We should get back princess" he mumbled, planting a kiss on my forehead
"Mm" I hummed, standing up.

"I shall see you later" I said, leaning up for an extra kiss
He hummed against me, holding me tightly before his hand ran through my free flowing hair
That I am sure was tangled by now... the maids were certainly going to complain.

"I shall see you later princess" he said, before I had to pull away
My fingers slipping softly past his as I walked away
I trailed up the hill quickly, quietly rushing back to room ready for everyone else waking up.

It was only when I had took to sorting my crazy waves out, that Melinoe strolled into my room leisurely
"Morning dear sister" she said
"Morning Noe" I smiled at her in the mirror
"How are you this morning?" She asked, waltzing over to me and swatting my hands away from my hair.

"I am perfectly... content" I said honestly
"Hm... has that got anything to do with where I saw you going so early this morning?" She said amused
I tilted my head back and looked at her
"Um... maybe" I answered, giving her a small smile.

She chuckled
"I assume it is going well then?" She asked
"Yes. It's perfect. He is perfect" I sighed
I could not be more happy with Than
"Father wants to see you this morning, he wants to go over your duties now Thanatos is back at work" she explained.
