Red hair. Bouncing curls. Deep emerald eyes.
And an attitude to rival Athena's.
She was beautiful. And hers. And Athena wanted nothing more than to reach out and touch her, but then she was gone.
Groaning, Athena opened one eyes and whined. It was still the middle of the night. Why was she awake?
Ruffling some of her hair, she sat up, trying to recall her dream. She'd been dreaming about a child, again. Ever since moving into this old house, her want for a child had grown even more. It was starting to really piss her off.
Glancing over to Charlie, Athena lay back on her side and moved a hand through his dark, red curls, smiling. He really was rather peaceful when he slept. She wondered what he'd think if he knew what her mind and body had been screaming at her for weeks.
Probably something along the lines of 'we're both too busy' or 'I have my book to write'. Which is why she kept her mouth shut.
Leaning over and kissing his forehead, she pulled the covers back over them, feeling him stir a bit.
"Is it morning?" He mumbled, pulling her closer.
She shook her head and kissed his cheek, a small smile on her lips. "No baby, you back to sleep."
Athena didn't think he heard her because he was right back to sleep.
What she would give to be able to sleep as peacefully as he did.
