Game On! • Ashton

She smiled, still running her fingers through the hair at the back of his neck as Tere pressed in close and kissed him softly for a moment. "I would really like that, you would think as a daughter of Poseidon, eating seafood would be like a form of canabalism, but I really love it." She said with a soft laugh and then wrapped her arms around him, curling up in his arms. "Evil birds go away..." She whimpered as she heard the morning birds beginning to chirp and sing, she didn't want to have to get up and get ready for the day.

Ashton laughed, loudly. "I believe it's an Italian restaurant, though I could be mistaken." He probably should've looked into that a little closer than he had. "I can make reservations...after I go to work." Self employed? Yes. Self destructive? Not so much. "I apologize. The daughters of Aphrodite demand sustenance early in the morning." Yes, that teacher would be irate that he wasn't there already.

She smiled a little "The Italians love their seafood too, but still sounds good." She said and then looked up at him again. "Well then, I guess I should let you get to work. I recently built a retreat in one of the coves, you can see it quite well from the tower... If you wish to find me later." She said, later having more than a few meanings, but the biggest one being later that night.

"I'll be there at Seven." He promised, standing up before extending his hand to help her up. Staring at the tree they had been resting under for a moment, he plucked a remaining blossom from one of it's branches and laced it into her hair. With a soft smile, he pulled her close again to kiss her before backing away slowly. "Until this evening, my lady pirate."

Tere smiled brightly, taking his hand and letting him pull her up and eventually into his arms once he had tucked the blossoms into her hair. She returned the kiss and then as he began to back away, she watched him with a bit of a hunger in her teal eyes. Still, he had a job to do... And so did she. She licked her lips and moved to get dressed, looking at the tree one last time. It was a pity he could not keep that around, but she still had things to do as well. But with his kiss still on her lips, she would have a far better day that the day before had been.
