I Scored Myself A Mate

"There is no way I would be able to do that" Ares mumbled as he laid on their bed. His hands and feet sprawled out like a star. Ea stared at him, still standing and smacked his leg to the side so he could sit there.

"Do what?" The small elf asked while staring at his yawning husband. 

"Didn't you hear? Luke is sending Alexander away kind of school trip. For a year, maybe more." Ares explained and Ea frowned at the sound of the information. 

"Where did you hear that?

"I have my sources."

"And your sources are?"

"Heard the maids chatting about it outside." He said proudly and gifted Ea a cheeky smile. His red eyes were closed, his limbs relaxed as he rested on the bed. He raised his arm and grabbed Ea, pulling him towards him and making him land on his chest. The raven haired elf screeched, surprised by the sudden movement and the prince chuckled, able to imagine his expression. 

"I said we will be taking a break"

"This is not a break. It's just an afternoon nap. A break would be in the Bahamas, or Greece, or Hawaii." Ea rolled his eyes at his response. "Don't roll your eyes at me."

"I did not." Ea said hastily and Ares grinned. 

"I know you" 

"I guess you do."

"Ea, would you let me leave?" Ares asked his husband. The prince opened his eyes, raising his head slightly so he could meet Ea's eyes. 

"Are you leaving?" Ea asked him back and Ares laughed. He always seemed to take everything so seriously. Even a hypothetical scenario seemed to stress him, Ares could see wrinkles forming in between his eyebrows, already concerned.

"No, no" he said and kissed the top of his head. "Just wondering. If something like that happened to us. Would you let me leave?" 

"I don't know" Ea said while thinking about it. "It depends"

"It depends?" Ares exclaimed surprised and pushed him off his chest. The small elf turned in a hurry, trying to avoid landing on the floor in his butt. Sadly though he failed and the next second he was meeting with the floor in a very comical way.

"Hey! You idiot. What was that for?" He asked him, rubbing his butt as he stood up.

"I died. I literally died and you're telling me you would let me go? Just like that? I am very disappointed in you." Ares said, pouting as he looked away from his husband.

Ea shook his head, confused with what was happening right now and took a step closer, sitting down at the bed. This time a bit more wary for any unfortunate falls.

"Did I answer wrong?" Ea asked him, his voice coming out as a hasty whisper. Ares turned towards him, locking eyes with him while his strong arms were crossed over his chest. 

"Are you really asking me that? I Would have never let go of you! That's the right romantic thing to say"

"Doesn't it sound a bit obsessive though?" Ea asked with a frown and the prince scoffed. "Like, I should respect your decision. Of course I would miss you and be sad but if it's for a good reason I have no right to keep you with me." Ea explained his thinking. Ares though seemed to still be dissatisfied. He turned around again and landed on the bed, hiding his face in the pillows and smacking his legs on the mattress.

"You don't love me!" He cried and Ea stared at him in shock. The small couldn't believe he was having that conversation right now with him or the audacity the spoiled prince had to call him out and say he didn't love him.

Ea stood up grabbing one of the pillows that were used as Ares' hiding placed and started smacking his but with it.

"How dare you...say...that I did not love you….when I literally fought with your psychotic ex for you!" Ea said, mercilessly smacking him with the soft pillow in between his words.

"Ouch!" Ares exclaimed after a while and stood up, attempting to get his pillow. Ea dodged him at first, managing to keep his weapon for a few more attacks but in the end Ares won, stealing it from him and pushing him on the bed. He sat on top of him, keeping him pinned while holding his wrist and moved forward. He stood so close to the point their noses were touching. "Say you love me" 

"No" Ea denied with a devilish grin.

"Say it you little prick. Say you love me and that you will never let me go"

"You can go. The door is open no one is holding you back"

"Eaaaa" Ares said and miserably fell to the side, kicking the air. Ea couldn't stop himself by now, he started chuckling seeing his childish attitude. He looked so cute with that pout on his face..

"Don't be childish Ares. We are married."

"So? Is love lost? That's what you're telling me?" He asked him. Ea smiled.

"I love you." He stated and a small smile began to appear in Ares' face.

"I like the way it sounds when you say it." The prince told him excited. "Say it again."

"I love you."

"One more time?" 

"I love you" Ea repeated again again with a caring expression on his face. 

"I love you too Ea. Even if you piss me off."

"If we're talking about who's pissing who off I would be careful if I were you." Ea joked.

....

Ares and Ea are one of the sweetest couples ever. Fight me if you disagree.
