The Flames of Hell. | Closed
It was one of those beautiful Saturday mornings where you woke up in a great mood and just took the world by storm as soon as you left your home. Either went to the beach, hiking, or just did something that wasn’t your usual plans. Yet, they were stuck at home due to some serious virus spreading among their world and so, home was their only choice.
That just meant a lot more of getting into trouble with each other at home and testing some new things that they had been thinking of. There was never a dull moment between them even if it meant just relaxing for a few seconds in silence as they did their own thing when that time of the day came around. Today, however, they had woken up and decided to be cuddled up in bed with each other as they watched some tv. Hades’s arm wrapped around Trish’s shoulder as she laid her head against his bare chest. His finger gently making doodles up and down her arm as they just enjoyed each others company.
As the tv show went on a commercial break, Trish started to get up but Hades pulled her right back to him before turning slightly to just full on embrace her into him. He could feel her laughing and just grinned in their pure bliss before softening his hold around her and looking into her eyes. ‘I love you’, the words leaving his smiling lips before he kissed her. Finally he released his grasp and let her do what she wanted, when she returned though he went right back to pulling his wife towards him. He got in these moods quite often with her, just wanting her to be close to him. Just liking how her body filled the space against him, how she smelled so sweet, that her skin was so soft to his touch, and honestly the list could go on forever.
When she was right back to how she had been earlier, he carefully pulled back any stray hairs from her face and said, “You make me melt.” He chuckled at what he had said but kept his grin on his face. “Hades was crazy for Persephone, so its only right for me to have you.” His free hand dragged across his face as he started to feel like he wasn’t making any sense and sighed. The smile still remained as he couldn’t help but feel extremely happy with his wife by his side today. His hand reached out to grab on of hers and her intertwined their fingers together. “I was thinking about when we first actually started to talk. I mean we talked in class but I don’t think that actually counts especially when it was purely based on just being teacher and student at that time.”
His blue eyes searching her face for a moment to see what she would think as to why he was bringing this up. He leaned in and gave her another small kiss before continuing with his words. “You were at the diner by yourself and then when I joined you thought it would be fun to make this guy jealous. I thought it would be fun too but really who would pass up the chance to be with such a gorgeous woman like you.” He let a hushed laugh as he stared up at the ceiling while retelling the story. “Would it be believable if I said you made me feel even a little nervous that night? I knew all the tricks yet I wanted to make sure to impress you. I didn’t want to be some guy who was great at sex, I wanted you to look at me and know I could also handle your banters, I could match your outlook, I could be more than just a handsome face.”
In their time together he had explained how he was never the overly confident man he was today but it was probably the first where he mentioned that he had been shaken by her. It wasn’t like he was fearful and just a big nervous wreck but she had been the first to challenge him and he loved it and continued to love it. “Then when we got to that building, it melted away and I just knew I wanted you. Other people didn’t matter and the whole damn world didn’t matter at that moment.” His eyes trailed back to her face then and a more gentle version of his traditional crooked smile appeared on his face. “I was engulfed by your flames from that very first day. I couldn’t escape - not that i wanted to - the hell we were making together.”
Hades shifted his body over so he could face her more directly now and placed his hand to caress her face. His thumb lovingly rubbing at her cheek as he again kissed her lips for the billionth time since they had woke up that morning. “Sorry, I know I’m getting very gushy, Cara Mia. I just wanted you to know that you really push me to be the best man for you and I wouldn’t have it any other way. I love you so much that I didn’t think the God of the Underworld would be this much of a sap for his Spring Goddess.”
Another grin spread over his face before he pulled her closer and adoringly kissed her. Their lips in a full embrace while his hand pressed at the small arch of her back to keep them as close as ever. Eventually the kiss lead elsewhere but at least it was a Saturday well spent for the both of them after all.
