Her mind continued to swarm with thoughts. So much so that she couldn't pay attention to any other sound, but the buzz of her not so easy mind. Which was why she sung. It would help her ease the thoughts and ease her mind. Less trouble that way, but at the same time, it caused her not to hear him as he came in. Meg's voice had always been a sort of sultry sound, soulful with only a tad of sweetness, but it was so clear in that shower as it opened her breathing up and soothed her muscles. "I thought my heart had learned its lesson
It feels so good when you start out. My head is screaming get a grip, girl, unless you're dying to cry your heart out. Oh... You keep on denying who you are and how you're feeling. Baby, we're not buying. Hon, we saw ya hit the ceiling. Face it like a grown-up, when ya gonna own up that ya got, got, got it bad?"
Meg flinched slightly as arms wrapped around her and he pulled her close, but when she realized it was him, she relaxed into them completely. Her eyes fell shut and she sighed softly as she let the song fall and she just took in the feeling he gave her with his arms encasing her and his presence in general. A small smile crossed her lips as she nodded in answer to his question. "I'm okay. Still absorbing what you said, but I'm okay. It might take me awhile to just understand it I guess, so don't make it be something that makes you sad that I'm just trying to take it in. I mean there's so much... We're not even dating, but I already told you, I feel it, too, I just can't quite bring myself to say it. And if that's not enough, then I understand, but it's all I can give. And the fact that you joined me rather than running off means you accept it, at least I think it does. And what the hell, Hercules you have me fucking rambling like an idiot. What have you done to me?" It may have sounded like she was angry, but she wasn't, the hint of a smile definitely sat on her face as she took a deep breath and hummed. :I guess what I'm trying to say is... Are you okay?"
She turned around within his arms, her body pressing to him as the water cascaded down her back, causing her hair to cling to her face and neck. "I know saying that is a big thing and not hearing it back is an even bigger thing and I just want to make sure you're okay and you're not just doing this because you think you'll lose me or something." Even without saying those three little words that meant so much, Megara felt completely vulnerable to him, like she was putting everything out on the line and he wasn't gonna bite. But that wasn't true at all. It was just a hard subject to broach with her, but even doing it so early, Herc had done it right. Even if it was just because she was caring for him and not because he was really in love with her, that was okay, but at the same time she really believed he was and that made all parts of her, other than the cynical ones, happy. And that wasn't something she would easily deny. Not now at least. "Just let me know you're okay or what you need, and I'll do what I can. I promise." And that was it, that's all she could give and hopefully it was enough and not the end.
