Dream a little, Dream of me

Said I'm fine, but it wasn't true I don't wanna keep secrets just to keep you

He had apologized, and still, as the dance ended, Lilliana wasn't happy. But that was supposed to be normal, she was marrying him.
And at last, her brother came to congratulate and the frown on her face widened.

"Lovely to see you Eris. Congratulations!" Kallias said flatly
Eris noddded.
And then they left, just winnowed away.
"I suspect a quarrel."
"Oh you suspect it alright." Lilliana said with a bitter laugh
"What happened?"
"We fought." She said and shrugged
"Evaluate your statement darling."
"How about no?"
"Sure."
"You're not going to press?"
"I mean unless you want me to, I won't,it's not my matter."
"And you seem to not want to tell me." Eris added
She nodded
"Maybe I'll tell you someday." She said quietly
He nodded.
They might not have that someday.

"Now, I'm hungry Vanserra." Lilliana said
"Stew?"
"God yes."
"Hmm, stew, and then steak?"
"Yes please."
He laughed

Then they made their way to the kitchen. It was mostly empty,the head cook was present, the female froze as she saw them but tensely nodded.
They just grabbed whatever they wanted. The stew and steak were present and they just took the dishes and the wine. And then they left the kitchen.

"To where then?" He asked
"Your room." She said
And he tugged on her waist with his free hand and then winnowed then to said location.
They arrived in the room.

Everything liked the same as before, only another armoire was placed beside Eris's. Hers.
They placed the food on the table that was in front if the couch. And then seated themselves on the couch.
Lilliana has just poured the stew into the bowl and had began.

"Damn." She said, humming at the warmth of it.
Eris had cut the steak and was devouring that.
"This stew, Eris, is everything." She said
"Oh it must be but this steak, this steak is fine."
"Oh look at us, describing our food like this."
"We are cringeworthy after all."
"No I prefer the term fashionably weird."
"Both work."
"Indeed."
"You know what?"
"What?" He asked
"For a moment in the beginning I had thought you were perhaps preferable of your own gender?"
"You thought I was homosexual."
"Uh yes."
"You actually thought that?"
"Yes." Lilliana replied looking flustered
"Why would you think that?"
"You left Morrigan there and then told me you didn't want to be married to a girl. So I began thinking and immediately came to that conclusion though I hope it doesn't offend you even though it sounded extremely offensive."
"No that doesn't offend me, but yes it sounded kind of assumingely offensive."
"And to answer your question or give a relative enough answer to that query if yours, no I am not homosexual."
"Oh."
"Yes."
"But I am."
"You prefer females?"
"We'll both, to be exact, I prefer both genders."
"Okay."
"So should I be worried about some courteous and beautiful female in this court stealing you away?"
"No you need not worry about that."
"Thank god."
"Why?"
"Just because."
"Tell me why?" (ain't nothing but a heartache. Jk)
"Eh because I'd miss you?"
"Is that a question or an answer?"
"It's a Whatever you want it to be."
"I don't want it."
"What is it that you want Lilliana?" Eris asked
And her mind shut down completely.
She looked at him.
Stupid boys and their stupid questions.
"What do you want?" He asked again
"For you to not ask that question." She said, a complete lie.
"Sure." He said
"I will ask you again."
"Shut up."
"Fine."
"Thank god you didn't say 'make me'." She said
Eris chuckled
"I would have but given the exhaustion, I did not."
"You're extremely irritating."
"Wow, I thought you would say something along the lines of, you're extremely handsome." He said
"I have no qualms of feeding your huge ego."
"Why?"
"Because you're already too egotistical and feeding you compliments is no wish of mine."
"Well, Since I know you and you are the epitome of what would be a strict and disciplined personality, I will not judge that."
"If you think I am strict or disciplined, you are out of your goddamn mind."
"Well that makes the two of us." Eris said sighing
"You're suggesting I'm out of my mind?" Lilliana asked
"Yes."
"Be aware, I'm your wife now. I can easily burn your eyebrows off."
"Darling did you quite forget that fire is in my disposal not yours?"
"Acquiring a matchbox isn't that difficult around here, and I can ask one of your beloved brothers to help me in that Situation."
"Of course."
"And yet I would not burn."
"Why?"
"It runs in my veins, thaws in my soul. And to think a matchstick would burn me is quite foolish."
"And now you call me foolish."
"Are you anything but that?"
"And you are so bad at compliments."
"If you think that was a compliment, you must be truly going mad, I know how to compliment one, but let me assure you, Love that was no compliment."
"So was it a comment?"
"I would say yes." He shrugged
"I hate you." She muttered
"And why do you do that?"
"Because I find myself often thinking about you, and that is well not my preference yet you run through my mind all day." Lilliana said
"So you admit to finding me worth your time."
"I never denied that."
"So in conclusion, you hate me, because you can't stop thinking about me and you find that disturbing." Eris said
"Yes." She breathed
"That is quite ridiculous." He retorted
"I find to hate myself the more you fill up my thoughts."
"You hate yourself for thinking about me too much."
"Yes."
"And why did you admit that to me?"
"Because not telling you doesn't help, so I thought maybe telling you that I am so hopelessly always thinking about you, might help me."
"And alas how would that help?"
"You might leave my thoughts."
"Well let me provide you my answer, I think if you too often and I find it disturbing as well." Eris replied
And that was too much of a conjured up lie.
But yes she was always in his mind.
"And that makes the two of us again."
"Let's just hope for each other then."
"Yes."
"They poured themselves glasses of wines
Then clinked them together for a cheer.
"To remaining in each others mind." She said
He could cheer to that.
