Graci glanced up to give him a look. βI think so.β She moved on to her second boot. Mortals were so disappointing. At first she had thought a mortal worthy in Mβs eyes would be an interesting oneβ¦
Jericho's smile faded from heartbreaking to gentle. Still holding the elevator door open, he reached for one of her hands and kissed her knuckles softly, with an elegant bow. "Good night then, My Lady." He said looking up at her through his lashes. He stepped back and let the door close between them, turning to leave only when the light above the doors told him she was safely travelling up.
Graci gave him another swift, unamused look and took her hand back. She took off her boots once the doors closed and leaned against the wall, sighing in a huff. She shook her head at the closed, silver doors. Cario was right. Mortals didnβt have the same grit she and he did when they were Demi-Gods.
(Autumn, did you want to skip again? Since thereβs not much else we can do here?)
(I felt soβ¦ powerful writing that last thing, lmao. Also, if yβall were wondering, Cario is the God of Insanity.)
(also Eris could you do me a tiny favor and start capitalizing God and Goddess because in this Universe theyβre proper nouns?)
(Hhhhhh)
Zackary chuckled softly and nuzzled into her neck. βOkay. So itβs me. I give in.β
(roger. roger!)
Jericho stuck his hands in his pockets as he walked home. He wasn't exactly sure what he'd gotten himself into, but he was a tad bit proud of himself for resisting. Maybe his playboys days were behind him. M would be proud.
(Thanks love.)
Graci shut her eyes and sighed softly. Whatever. Iβll just go back up to the other Gods. She opened her eyes when the elevator doors opened and she stepped out, making a turn for her room. She was greeted by a housemaid, who she dismissed for the night.
(Autumn, did you want to skip again? Since thereβs not much else we can do here?)
(Sure. Can you? I got to go.)
(Of course! Have a good night.)
((LOOOOVE YOOOOOUUU, Emi))
Juliet practically purred like a cat with utter satisfaction. "Goodβ¦" She smiled as she wrapped her arms about him, hugging him. "Tell me what flavors you want over Round 2, okay?" She gestured to the table.
(Loooooooooooove you tooooooooooooooooooo)
Zackary grinned and tucked her into the sheets with him. The large comforter was pleasantly warm with his body heat.
βI donβt care what you make, babe. Itβll be incredible either way.β
Julie sighed, but stopped herself before she could get lost in the warmth of him. Looking into his eyes, she stood on her tippy-toes and closed the space between them. Their kiss was long and passionate, by the time they parted, Julie's hands were in his hair. "Eat up, big boy~" she whispered against his lips.
(Wowee Lotus you canβt even wait for PMs? xD)
Zackary pressed back into the kiss, taking her weight against his chest and leaning forward, his arms wrapped around her hips securely.
βMmmβ¦β His eyes flitted open and he drew a line of kisses along her jaw. βI will. Iβll enjoy the hell out of it, too.β
(I'm here. For now. Would you like to start, Emi?)
((XD Emi, noβ¦justβ¦no. What ever you were thinking, throw it in the recycling bin for now. ))
"Good, because your food is getting cold, babe." Julie pointed to the table. "Go eat, I'll clean up the kitchen and get started with the muffins."
(xD Lotus did I go too far? And ye, Autumn. I will at schoolio)
Zackary whined softly and dragged her over to the table. βNooooo eat with me.β He sat down with her, gripping her like a teddy bear.
((xD Yeah, you did, but it's all good in the hood))
Juliet laughed but conceded. "How can I say 'no' to you?" She looked to him. "Do you want to taste the eggs or the pancakes first?"
(Good in the hooood)
Zackary stretched his arms out of the blanket and pulled everything toward himself. βAll of it. It looks amazing.β
