you sat at the end of the bed brushing your hair and preparing for bed, hera watching you from the top of it stroking the feathers of one of her crows. "is something wrong my love?" you ask turning to face her. "why have you not come to bed yet? your hair looks fine." she says with hints of annoyance. "I will be done in a few minutes be patient" you smile, before turning away. before you could touch your hair with the brush you were pulled into Hera's arms by her powers. "you dare tell me to be patient?" she says playfully, pulling you down to lay next to her. "You're right, I'm sorry" you smile cuddling to her. She wraps her arms around you and pulls you close, kissing the top of your head. "how was your day?" you ask smiling up at her. "exhausting. people are fools" she says with hints of frustration in her tone. You smile a bit gently playing with her hair. "do you want to talk about it?" you ask in a whisper, earning a slight groan from her. "I'll take that as a no" you laugh a bit, cuddling close. As the two of you lay together in each other's arms talking of your day, heras crows flew in cuddling up around you, one even on you. you laugh as one wiggles its way into the small space between you and hera. "I think this little one would like some cuddles as well" you smile looking up at hera, she gives a soft smile reaching down to pet the crow's head, stroking their feathers. "lay down my darling, it's time for rest," she tells the crow softly, the crow listens to her words and curls between you two. "goodnight my love," you say cuddling to her, her smile widens slightly. "goodnight," she says kissing your head once more before falling into a dream filled sleep.

“Hermes, how much longer do I have to keep this on for? Where are we even going?” You ask as you’re being blindly led by Apollo’s younger brother.
“You ask so many questions.” He chuckles. “ The only thing I can tell you is Apollo sent me to get you and that it’s a surprise.”
Your tummy flutters at the idea of what Apollo could possibly get you.
He always showers you with little gifts and surprises you with sweet dates. Last time you told him it was your turn to treat him and you did by making a picnic for you two, you even made fresh bread and got his favorite fruit and set up on a hill to watch the sunset and here he is doing another impossibly sweet gesture only a few weeks after his last.
The sun god is always quick to spoil you and is deaf to all your comments of guilt for not being able to pay him back or do the same for him. The smile on your face and the time you give me is a gift in itself, he would say so you just try to accept it and know he expects nothing in return no matter how big or small his token of affection is.
Though he’s done a lot in the two years you’ve shared together, being led blindfolded to an unknown location is a first. All you can tell is you’re going up a rocky hill —thank the gods for Hermes’ hold on your arm because you’ve had a few close calls of falling on your face.
“Okay,” The God beside you says, coming to a stop. “You can remove your blindfold.” You can feel him stand back as you untie the loose knock at the back of your head, blinking away the brightness of the setting sun your heart melts in your chest at the sight before you.
Before you is the spot where Apollo asked you to officially be his girlfriend and now there is a trail of red petals leading from where you’re standing to the golden god standing in the middle of the clearing. He reflects the smile you give him as you start walking, looking over your shoulder you see Hermes is gone —you were so enthralled by the scene before you you must’ve missed him racing away, leaving the two of you alone on the top of this mountain.
“You look as lovely as always.” Apollo says, his smooth rich voice rolls over his lips like silk.
“Thank you, I can say the same for you.” You chuckle, brushing a strand of hair behind your ear as you reach him in the center. “This is beautiful, Apollo, but what is this all?” You ask, scanning the surrounding ground that is littered with flower petals and candles that are dancing in the wind, illuminating the dimming area.
“What? Can’t a man do something special for their lover for nothing?” He asked suavely as he took a step towards you to hook his warm hand around the back of your neck and pull you in for a sweet kiss. When your lips touch it sends sparks of electricity across your skin and down your spine.
“I guess not, but was the blindfold really necessary?”
“Of course. You should’ve seen your face, it was beautiful.” He smiles brightly.
Taking your hand he takes a deep breath.
“However, I must confess, there is something more to this night.”
“What more can you possibly do, this is perfect, Apollo. You’ve already given me all I could possibly want” You ask bemused, making him chuckle warmly.
“Perhaps but there is something I’ve been wanting to give to you for quite a while.”
You allow the god to walk you to a small seating area he’d set up with blankets and cushions along with a basket with a bottle of wine and a few treats. Taking a seat upon a gold cushion, your hand still in his, you wait for him to continue.
“Y/n, you’ve honored me with two years of your life, which is more than I would’ve ever expected you to grant me. You say I’ve given you all I could possibly give but it’s quite the opposite. There is so much left to give, some of which I may never acquire but I’ll spend every day you grant me to do just that. You deserve everything this world, and on, has to offer.” Your eyes begin to prickle with wetness as you listen to his honeyed words and see the truth in his amber eyes.
Positioning himself on his knee before your body he takes both your hands in his as he keeps his eye locked on yours.
“I would say that every petal around us is a physical representation of all the reasons and the days that I’ve loved you and will continue to love you, but there aren’t enough in existence to show that.
The reason I’ve brought you here is because I wanted to bring you to the very spot you accepted my courtship to humbly request you to give me the opportunity to love you for the rest of your days as your husband.
Y/n L/n, will you marry me?”
You don’t even try to stop the tears that are brimming over as you frantically nod your head, wrapping your arms around his shoulders you press your quivering lips against his.
“Yes! A million times, yes!” You cry between kisses. His hands cradle your face as his glossy eyes search yours.
“Really?” He asks, almost surprised you said yes.
“Yes, Apollo. I will marry you.”
This is kinda shitty but is it in a cute way at least?!?
I hope you enjoyed it either way 😅
Happy Saturday!
Have some fluff for the beginning of your weekend :)

A ctivities - what do they like to do with their s/o? How do they spend their free time with them?
Training; he’ll teach you a few things if you want to but usually it involves you admiring him as he trains lol
He also just enjoys resting with you and spending quality time alone in his/your home
Modern AU
Likes going to the gym together
Can be quite competitive with his partner, especially while playing a sport or games like pool
R omance - How romantic are they? What would they do to make their s/o happy? Cliché or rather creative?
Beginning of the relationship? Eh, not really
Deep into the relationship? Yes
He becomes a mushy bean - but don’t tell nobody, he’ll get flustered and deny it
His gestures mainly come in quality time and gifts
Such as; flowers, a date to watch the sun set, cuddling while talking about your day
Over all, not really a romance guy but for the person he loves and holds dear he can be a little mushy and soft in the right places
E qual - Are they the dominant one in the relationship, or rather passive?
Is that even a question when dealing with the literal God of War?
Definitely dominant in the beginning
You really have to assert yourself and make those boundaries early on
Later if/when you do he will bend to your will a bit
Always will be strong headed and stubborn but his partner does have more control over him than anyone would think - even he shakes his head when he admits it to himself, never to you. never admit defeat lol
More often than not is dominant and steers the ship but lets you take the reins when need be
S upport - Are they helping their s/o achieve their goals? Do they believe in them?
I don’t think Ares was given the opportunity to really learn how to support another person emotionally, but he tries!
He’ll listen when you need it
His encouragement can sometimes come off a bit aggressive but he means well
However this intimate attention of listening and caring about his partner’s goals and dreams really only comes when your relationship is more serious
Before you get to that point he’ll encourage you but it won’t be too deep, if that makes sense
“If you want it, go get it.”
“Less talkin’, more walkin’.”
Sorta cut and dry responses rather than in depth help like he’d give deeper into your relationship
It doesn’t mean he doesn’t care he’s just a bit guarded to say the least
Hope you liked this short HC post
If you did feedback and interaction is always appreciated :3
