(8) Gamboge Shower Thoughts

Since when was it ever a good idea to drink tequila and whiskey at the same time?

Aurora must have been out of her damn mind when she accepted Persephone's drinking challenge, who won- but that wasn't the point in discussion.

Every time her skull throbbed, it felt like a pregnant geezer about to give birth to a upwards streaming waterfall. She leaned herself against the shower's glass containment and let the steam and mist cloud her mind to not remember her hangover.

"The trees cut down to make Jenga blocks are repeatedly forced to relive their own death."

Aurora's eyes snapped open, which in turn sent a viper strike of blinding pain to her eyes. She gritted her teeth and she now remembers the other occupant in the large shower room.

Thanatos sat on the bench with everything on showcase. But, Aurora was too much in pain to get horny from it. It made Death pout.

He leaned his head back and allowed the mist to cover his pecs with small droplets while looking at Aurora throw his eyelashes.

A muscled arm lifted as an offering, "Come here,"

Aurora's brain was probably in Babylon and it soon collided to Portugal when her body suddenly ended up in his lap. Thanatos' grin was wolfish, big white teeth smiled down at his bride as her head instantly laid her head on his chest, as where it should be.

Her back and skull tingled with the creamy strokes of the God's hands. Might as well have labeled it heaven's gates.

"Tell me more."

The husky voice of his lover drawer him to crack one eye open to look down at her in questioning.

Her eyes were cloudy with the ocean's currents, sweeping through and through- carrying away everything with it. Aurora cleared her throat, "Shower thoughts."

A full blown smile painted on his face and slowly he brought his lips to her ear.

"No one bats an eye when you have breakfast for dinner, but, if you order dinner in the morning you look like a psychopath."

A scoff bounced off the steamy glass, "Of course you would have done something like that. I would expect nothing less from history's first psychopath."

A rumbling laugh came from him as his shoulders shook, bringing Aurora along with him. "Surprisingly not, there's just something entirely wrong with eating a steak that early in the morning."

He couldn't see it, but, Aurora chuckled at the thought of him eating raw meat first thing in the morning. He certainly wouldn't be getting any kisses from her at that point.

"The word "nun" is just the letter "n" doing a cartwheel."

Figures. He would bring up some psychological thinking into this shower session.

Shaking her head, Aurora quietly listened on to the complex thoughts of Thanatos in their shower. Sitting comfortably in the warmth of his lap and his voice that tickled her ears from time to time to make her giggle made her sleepy.

As an hour passed that warmth transferred to a cushioned mattress and cool sheets.

With Thanatos kissing her forehead just as she was about to succumb to the black sands of sleep, he whispered.

"I can't think of any better representation of beauty  than someone who is unafraid to be herself."
