[Something akin to a chuckle escapes Lahabrea once he hears that little yawn. It does him so much good to know that he caused that fatigue. It also does him good to know that Themis is so accepting of him and all of his flaws. Athena left a hole in his heart that he thought could never be mended. The act of her betrayal left many scars within him, some of which run deep enough to be etched into his soul. However, Elidibus is the first to attempt to mend such wounds, the first and only.
Lahabrea lets out a little hum as he nuzzles his cheek against Themis’ chest. He’s content to let the younger man act as his pillow for now. After all, Elidibus is quite comfortable and warm. However, he refuses to let go of his hand even now. If they must slumber, then they shall do so with their fingers entwined like two star-crossed lovers. This brings a smile to Lahabrea, especially once he hears Elidibus’ request.]
Of course, there’s no other place I would rather be than in your loving embrace.
[He whispers before leaning over to kiss Elidibus on the lips before he can fully fall asleep.]
When you awake, I shall be here…still holding your hand. There’s no need for us to part so soon.
[Sleepily, Elidibus returns the kiss, a languid smile turning up the corners of his lips. He is completely happy. So unexpected this was, this turn of events - Lahabrea making an appearance, this connection being forged between the two of them. The wonderful intimacy they have shared today.
He settles in, allowing his eyes to finally close.]
Not now, and not any time soon to come. Not of either of us have a say.
[A miracle that they can have this. One he plans on making the most of. He falls asleep like that, with the warmth of Lahabrea around him, with the sound of the surf in his ears. Full of blossoming love, full of potential.
Eventually he will awake, their fingers still entwined. But for now, rest.]
