Mount Olympus [5]

Jace

I can't stop smiling, looking over the contents of the box. When I'm done--although I'll deny it if Nic ever decides to bring it up--I have to blink back tears. I sit beside Rayah and kiss her quickly, resting my forehead against hers, "Thank you."

Rayah

I smile and kiss him back, wrapping my arms around his neck as I take a deep breath, "Your welcome."

Jace

I move her onto my lap, aware of Ella in hers, and just hold her for a bit.

Rayah

Ella crawls away to Logan and I watch her before looking back at Jace, "Remember that song? Memories..."

Jace

I smile and nod, "I do. Sing it for me, Ray."

Rayah

I sigh and think, "And I'd give up forever to touch you
Cuz I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now

And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
Cuz sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight

And I don't want the world to see me
Cuz I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am..." I smile.

Jace

I smile and kiss her quickly when she finishes.

Rayah

I smile back at him, "Good?"

Jace

I nod and bury my face in her hair, sighing.

Rayah

I watch him, slightly chuckling.

Jace

I flash a smile at her and kiss her neck.

Rayah

I smile back at him and let him kiss my neck, closing my eyes.

Jace

I stop and just rest my head there, at peace with holding her.

Rayah

He rests his head in my neck and I take a deep breath, relaxed.

Jace

The lyrics to Kiss Me Slowly by Parachute pop into my head and I flash a smile before humming it.
