Carrying Annabelle Dionysus flashed them into her apartment. She was injured and he wasn't going to allow the blonde to support herself. Barely was she capable to stand. Moving toward the couch gently laying her down on the cushions. Brushing back some of her blonde hair, I'm going to heal you now but I will warn you that your strength will take time to rebuild. It was his way of telling her not to move that she should just relax for a few. Laying a hand on hr forehead and one on her stomach . Dionysus focused all of his power on healing the woman that lay before him. The process would also wipe him out as well but he would keep that a secret hopefully no one else would be trying to kill them in the next four hours. A blinding light swept though the apartment then died out just as quickly . a fine sheen of sweat appeared over his forehead but Annabelle was healed . panting a smile spread over his mouth they there Blondie glad you could join the party . how about I make some tea for you groaning as he stood up he would be feeling the effects of healing her ...which he would do in heart beat again. Marching with purpose over to the kitchen beginning to make her tea we need to talk he sighed as he began to heat the water in the tea kettle I know I said stay away but it seems we can't some how our fates are destined to meet . leaning on to the counter wondering how this was going over .

Once Ares left she could finally give in to the tiredness that hung over her like a storm, her whole body was limp and her balance nearly non-existent. Her fingers held on to Dio's shoulders for dear life as he gently set her down on the soft sofa. Annabelle's lips curled into a thankful smile and her eyes even more so. As his voice reached her ears she nodded, she wanted the pain to end and if it meant taking it easy for a while then so be it.
The feeling associated with the healing was something she'd never felt before. Her skin got warm and itchy and pins and needles came to life in her fingertips but once the blinding light died down the strange feelings that came with it vanished. She looked to the sweat that coated his skin and the tiredness in his eyes, however much he had healed her it had taken a great deal from him as well.
"Hey" she said gently propping herself upwards to face him "are you okay?" her voice was worried and a slender hand reached towards him as he stood up, obviously it had taken a toll on him "tea would be great. Dionysus" she called quickly with a genuine smile "thank you. For helping me out back there and for this" her eyes quickly diverted to her shoes thinking of the risk he took to save her from his brother.
"I figured" she muttered as he spoke from the kitchen, she never told him about her origin and she knew it would spark a conversation sooner or later. Her fingers slipped to her shirt to lift the hem and look at the skin on her abdomen where Ares had sliced at her with his sword, another thin white scar to remind her she was a survivor. Many nights she'd count them in the mirror, remembering how she'd gotten each and every one of them and how she survived. But she wouldn't want them gone, they remind her all the horrors that had helped shape the woman she was "You know I can't just go from 'stay away for your own safety crap' to oh now it's fine cause you almost got killed in the span of a few days" her tone was harsh and sarcastic and she hadn't meant it to sound as such but having to be ready to show herself to him and then being asked to stay away hurt. And in some way she'd already rebuilt her walls from scratch, as high as ever with thick bricks to keep everyone out.

Snapping his head up staring at her bit dumbfounded. I'm sorry did you not see the big prime example of why we should stay away from one another? here he thought being chained to a tree spread eagle would make her go running to the hills. I am suggesting this now because I have to protect you . Dionysus wanted to stay calm and not sarcastic . that would lead to fighting at this point he had no energy to do so.
I wanted to keep you safe I have a tendency to ruin things. And well as you've seen to day my family is bit on the homicidal side . Ares won't stop so I'm by your side Blondie . I will not let him destroy you Zeus had made Ares a perfect weapons to use against the gods . It was the strangers you must fear lurking in the shadows at court. No but the family that would smile at you look you in the eyes while they stabbed you...those are the worst betrayals because you actually didn't see it coming.
Allowing the pot of water to boil , Dionysus moved back to the couch . not using powers but a slow ambling pace. Sinking down on the coffee table top. I know what I said and I'm sorry ...look I'm not good at this stuff ..I wanted to do right by you and sighing leaning his elbows on to his knees hands pressed together firmly. it doesn't matter what I do or what I choose I'm what's wrong . I didn't want you to be soiled by being associated with me . your full of this hope and this blindly light of promise running his hands over his face , Dionysus felt every bit his age tonight . I'm broken everyone I've cared about either leaves , abuses my trust or dies. I ..I didn't want you be corrupted by whirl pool of emptiness that I call my life . I just wanted to do right by you for once I wanted to make the selfless choice . he spoke laying most of his cards on the table.

She sighed running a shaky hand through her hair, if there was anything she wanted to avoid it'd be fighting with him after what had happened "I don't need protecting Dionysus, I've never had it before and I survived just fine" memories slipped back to her time in the enchanted forest, various times she'd come face to face with death and by some miracle lived to see another day "I'm grateful don't get me wrong. I'm pretty sure he was about to cut me open when you came but I'm not going to run away cause I'm scared" she turned to face him with a serious expression upon her face "it won't be the last time I have to fight for my life and it won't be the last time your brother scares the crap out of me but this was my home before he came waltzing in demanding everyone follow his rule and I'm not running off pretending he's the biggest baddest of them all just so he'll be happy" another soft sigh escaped her lips "what I'm trying to say is that I don't want you with me just so I'll be safe, I want you with me because it's what you want" the words left her lips softly as she turned back around ashamed at her little outburst and looked towards her feet.
She lifted her eyes as he sat down upon the coffee table in front of her, he'd done right by her tonight, by risking himself to save her from his brother. It was sad listening as he spoke of his past, she didn't think anything wrong of the person he was. He was dedicated and trustworthy and someone he should be proud of. People who were empty didn't risk themselves to save someone they barely even knew.
"Everything broken can be fixed" the words left her mouth before she even comprehended what she was saying, she had no idea where it came from but it left a warm, hopeful feeling within her chest and a soft smile upon her lips.
her palm slipped over his knee for him to meet her gaze "there's nothing wrong with you Dionysus, I don't know of your past but I'm guessing that not all the blame is on you. I don't intend to leave, this is my home and if we're ever apart it won't be because of me and honestly I don't die easily so that's not a problem" she joked lightly trying to lift the gloomy mood but failing "and you're not empty" she argued tears welling in her eyes "if anything you're filled up on wine" but it was a terrible joke and she knew it but she had so much in her and she didn't know how to say it all "but trust, I'm not good at that. I'm prone to keeping so many secrets because I don't want someone to betray me" there was a time she trusted someone and that trust left her facing the sharp end of a sword and a reason to keep everything bottled inside her "I'm so sorry I didn't tell you about my connection to the gods" she let her eyes fall solely to the ground embarrassed for keeping such a massive secret from him.
She felt a slight shake in her fingers and the tears kept welling up, it was overwhelming feeling her walls crumble right there. Annabelle had never been as open with anyone before and it felt strange but a heavy weight lifted off her shoulders and for the first time in so long she felt as if she could breathe, as if she wasn't suffocating under a ton of useless crap. For the first time she truly felt like the truest version of herself.

None of his family had ever spoken like this toward him it made Dionysus feel...it just made him feel. Turning his head staring at Annabelle she could either be the greatest destroyer or the god could genuinely fall for her. Seeing tears in those big almond shaped Mediterranean ocean colored eyes. Scooting toward the blonde wrapping a arm about her pulling her close to him.
Resting his head on her temple of her forehead. Some sight they must be teary eyed and broken . but like she said even the broken things can be fixed which was beautifully hopeful and so very unlike her. They must be good for one another ...they kept breaking down walls left and right.
Lifting his head up tucking a strand of her blonde behind Annabelle's ear . Dionysus stared into those watery eyes and then down to her lips. Leaning forward about to go in he was going to kiss her or was about to until the whistle from the tea kettle rung out . huffing out a soft annoyed laugh, water is done be right back with your tea.
That was fate that was some divine power breaking in . standing up from he couch moving back to the rubbing his hand together . Annabelle made him want to be better to not be this selfish person. He wanted to be there for her in more then one way . she may have had to protect herself before with no help but now that was different. Making the tea watching the tea seep changing the crystal clear water dark in to a Amber hue.
I know you said that you have protected your self before me . I'll respect that , but your not alone now . you have family and that means you have power standing behind you. I dont want to be the man standing infront of you but beside you. When I saw you today beaten and bloody something broke within me . I'm not a fighter I'm lover but when I saw you I...I wanted tto fight for you. Now you can tell me to get over my self that you don't need a knight in shining armor. Good because I'm not like that and never will be , I will how ever be the guy who will never give up . maybe not the most romantic thing still it came from the heart that was all it was meant to be .

Her mind could not pin a recent memory of comfort as he had given her there and then, she felt safety within the warmth of his embrace and she saw care within his entrancing eyes. Recently her entire history had been unraveling at an unanticipated rate and she felt lost, but there with him she felt as steady and relieved as she ever had and her mind could not understand why. Neither could she understand how her heart ached for him in such a short time, this could either be the best thing that ever happened to her or her biggest mistake yet.
She crumbled under his touch and lost herself within his gaze, even as he tucked the stray strand of hair behind her ear her eyes never left his. Her mind was screaming for her to turn tail and run as far as she can, that weakness would only burden her but her heart stayed steady in it's sway and before she even knew what was happening she felt herself lean in ready to meet his lips but the loud whistle broke her trance and she slipped backwards against the backrest as he stood up for the tea. A soft blush crept onto her cheeks and she gave him a gentle smile and nod as he stepped towards the kitchen.
Annabelle glanced at the vase on the coffee table with the beautiful flowers he'd gifted her with the first night they truly spent time together, just the two of them. For some odd reason they just kept on living, looking as vibrant and lively as the first time she put them there and as he spoke she found a warm feeling spreading through her chest until it sparked within her finger tips. Emotions had always spiked the fire within her leading to horrible consequences but this time was different, not only did it warm her cold skin but she felt control over it. She didn't want the flame to spark and it didn't, a wide grin spread on her lips knowing it could've simply been coincidence that when he was there control was not a problem or it could possibly have been fate. Either way it brought another wave of relief over her.
"I might have family Dionysus but I barely know them, and" a slight pause hung in the air before she dared speak again "I'm not used to it and it's kind of overwhelming and this" she pointed her finger between the two of them "it's so new to me, it kind of scares me" her eyes widened realizing this was the most truthful she'd ever been with someone about herself "but in a good way" she didn't know what to say, her mind was a turmoil of different thoughts and all of them begged to be free at the same time "I don't know what to say, I don't even know where this leaves us" her voice had become soft and uncertain, she wanted desperately for this to last, the feeling of hope and love but things were so complicated and a fear of losing him bothered her deeply.
Ares had proven himself vengeful and homicidal and she worried about the extent he would go to accomplish his deepest desires, she was fearful he might kill his brother and she'd end up right where she started. Alone. She could not bring herself to meet his gaze "but I care about you Dionysus, I don't want to see you dead because of me" she felt open and exposed, as if she laid her heart on the table and everything it held secret.

❝when I've loved someone ❞ Carrying there tea over which if any one namely the other gods saw this scene . would no doubt be a giant cosmic joke. The god of wine having a spot of tea heading to he couch . She still was beautiful even with all bruises . Annabelle the injuries would finish up healing within the next few hours and the demigoddess would be better than ever . handing her the mug well then fix that , you want me one of the better ones? This god is bit shy but once he likes you he will be extremely loyal to you Hephaestus was in town hidden away in the shadows . the man didnt enjoy people but only because it was easier to push away those that might make fun of you. Sitting back down on the couch his own mug in tow. in fact you already have some of his workin your apartment . pointing to the sculpture by the window. Hephy always did have exceptional skill which he honed to perfection. But when you focus only on work your skills will be just that amazing. Family is suppose to be overwhelming and annoying your still new . Wait till our first get together then you can say overwhelming. laughing sipping on the tea yet a upon seeing the worry on Annabelle's face Dio sombered up fast. It leaves us taking it one step at time . we aren't going to rush just see where this takes us Rarely did Dionysus open up to someone but when he did he allowed them all the way in. The familiar openness was occuring in his heart, the god had not felt this way since Morgana. Placing the mug on he coffee table scooting side ways so that now he could face more easily. you don't have to worry Annabelle , I won't be killed so easily by Ares or anyone. placing a tender hand her knee closet to him I don't let people in point blank I don't its been easier to be alone . now that I've met you I've let you in that means something at least to me. ❝ its with all my being ❞

She gratefully took the mug within her palm already feeling comfort in the heat it offered to her skin. She listened closely to him as he spoke, finally regaining her composure. She rarely found herself at the mercy of her emotions but the night had proven to be one of those nights but instead of pain and uncertainty clouding her eyes she felt care and safety so she took a deep breath. Turning her head to look at the beautiful sculpture, a smile grew upon her lips looking towards it. She remembered the night she got it like yesterday, it's been a favorite of hers ever since.
"Please tell me you don't intend on going to that screwed up dinner of his?" she asked him pleadingly, already knowing of his invite to Aphrodite. And if with the ever growing godly population who was to tell what dangers awaited at the wretched get together. Her lips welcomed the sweet taste of the tea with a soft smile and a relaxed sigh slipped past her lips.
She watched him slowly set the his cup down thankful for his patience in whatever was going on between them. When people rushed things often they destroyed it and time was all she needed to get used to all the new feelings brewing inside her. Even though he sounded confident she did not trust his family, she didn't trust Ares to keep safe his family as he so eagerly told her he was trying to do and thus she did not trust her friends and family around him.
"It means a lot to me too" she told him softly smiling and meeting his gaze "I'm no good at opening up either, never been and probably never will be. So I guess this is something new to both of us" she shrugged her shoulders for the first time noticing the large blood stains on her clothes.
"Just give me a minute" she held up her finger gently slipping away from him towards her bedroom where she eagerly ripped the clothes aside to replace them with a new clean attire. She gently leaned against the dresser in her room with her palms flat on the wood "what have I gotten myself into?" she muttered softly to herself unable to hide the growing smile and found herself wandering back to where she left him feeling much better without the blood, feeling as if the dangers they faced was truly behind them. For now at least.
