Mount Olympus

Jace

"I have no clue," I flash a smile, "But something involving a puzzle of sorts, something to keep me guessing."

Rayah

I nod and kiss his neck, sighing, "I would expect that from you," I smile.

Jace

I smile and look at her, "You would?"

Rayah

I nod and take a deep breath, leaning my head against his chest, "I love you so much."

Jace

I flash a smile and tighten my arms around her, "I love you too, more than anything."

Rayah

I smile but soon start to feel something in my stomach, taking more deep breaths, "I-I'm not feeling so good..."

Jace

I open my eyes and look at her, picking her up in case we have to run to the bathroom, "Just relax. I've got you. Do you want to go in the bathroom just in case?"

Rayah

I nod and set a hand on my stomach, squeezing my eyes shut.

Jace

I gently carry her to the bathroom and sit before the toilet, holding her in my lap.

Rayah

I pull my hair back and double over, coughing, and set a hand on my stomach.

Jace

I hold her and comfort her as she does, holding her hair back for her.

Rayah

When I think I'm finished, I wipe my mouth with the back of my hand and moan, closing my eyes.

Jace

I sigh, wishing I could do more, and lean her against me, grabbing the bottle of mouthwash for her when she's ready.

Rayah

I sigh and take the mouthwash from him, standing and washing my mouth out. When done, I rest my arms in the sink.

Jace

I stand and wrap my arms around her from behind, kissing the back of her neck, "S'alright. Let's go lie down for a little, relax."
