30 A Bella Nigh (1/2)
”Sure, honestly, I don't know, go ahead,” He said as he realized the pain in his body, ”Do you have something for pain? My legs are killing me,” She put the plate in front of her and rushed out of the door. He heard her shoes run down the hallway, ”I think I worried her a little bit, oops,” He heard her run down the hallway once more and barge through the door, ”I didn't mean to worry you.”
”No, no, no, here,” She was out of breathe, ”This should help you,” She poured it into his glass, ”I'll mix it with water and then it should help you with the pain,” She was breathing heavily, she served herself and sat down, she sighed and they began eating.
”What is this stuff?” He said looked down at his plate.
”Do you not like it?”
”No, I do, but what is it? It is just a question.”
”Um, this is pyrus tree root that is fried in olive oil, um, that is regular lettuce, well, wild lettuce, and some tomatoes,” She said smiling as he continued to eat, ”So you like it? Or are you just trying to be polite?”
”I actually like it, thank you,” They continued to talk and eat and then once the dinner was over the servants came back in and cleaned the table and left them alone, together, ”Bath?”
”Ooh, sounds tempting, what are you planning?”
”Um, what are you thinking about? I just wanted to take a bath and it would be better with you, like this morning, it really helped with my muscle soreness.”
”Well, yeah I guess,” She said as she walked over to the closet and dropped her dress and hung it on the side, she caught him staring, ”Um, Gold, can you not stare at me, it embarrasses me,” He pulled off his robes and tossed them on the bed and walked awkwardly into the bathroom, the water was warmer than in the morning and he untied his pants and walked in. The water felt like Bella's touch when she massaged his muscles in the morning, he felt something rub his back, he leaned his head back and fell into Bella's kiss, she moved away from him and slid into the bath next to him. ”Bella, I love you,” He kiss her cheek.
”I love you, Gold,” She held his arms and her boobs moved around his arm, ”Do you want me to do something to you? I can massage you again, or wash you, anything you want, tell me.”
”If you offer, I would like another massage, it really feels good,” He kissed her forehead, ”Can you?”
”Of course,” She began slowly massaging his shoulders, ”Um, I have a quick question, can I give you a nickname?”
”What do you mean?”
”Um, like not just Gold, it sounds a little weird, you know, maybe I could call you darling or something, what do you think?”
”Um, well, sure, if you want,” He shrugged, ”I guess darling would be fine, you know, um, sure, yeah, darling sounds fine, I am used to people not using my name.”
”What do you mean?”
”Miia and Camille can me master and D. B. calls me lord, so you know,” He said as he removed her hands from his back and pulled her towards him, into a kiss. He stopped and gazing into her eye, ”So, what do you want to do later tonight?”
