She was so kind. Letting a complete stranger into her house and helping them despite he could be someone bad. But he wasn’t bad and neither was she. In fact, she didn’t seem familiar at all. Meaning he had never seen her on the punishment list. Cecilly must know a lot about the area considering she was able to give him a lot of information and to that he was grateful, however he didn’t quite reach his main goal and that was to convince her to come back to the other gods with him.

The idea of how to convince her when he couldn’t actually ‘show her’ anything was something that he would have to find his way around. Pulling the ice pack from his head he gave a small sigh feeling the back of his head slightly damp from the water. After all that was said and done, he was already back to normal. Gods heal a lot faster than humans anyway. “Thank you for your hospitality, Lee.” He said softly as he played with the cat. 

Taking the papers from her with his free hand, he gave her a pleasant smile. A soft aura reflecting the young god’s gentle nature expanded around his body and into the room. Giving the room a bubby and happy atmosphere as he put the toy back to where he found it. 

It wasn’t until he was handed a phone that he realized he could easily be caught at this moment for not being human but… he was interested in the phone. He handled it much like a child would. He gave it a shake before examining it in his hands. After a moment he tossed it up into the air and caught it before letting out a little chuckle of joy. Turning the phone the wrong way, he put the microphone part next to ear and the speaker next to his mouth. Of course there was no volume or sound but he was still having fun. Pulling the phone from his ear he realized just how silly he must come across. 

“It’s okay.” He said softly handing her back the phone and standing up. “I really appreciate this Lee but I probably should get going. I don’t want to interrupt your meal.” With that he took her hand in his large one and gently brought it up to his lips. His full lips pressed softly against the back of her hand. “Again, thank you for your kind heart and helpful nature. I can only hope we’ll run into each other again. Have a good night.” With that he left, the door shutting softly behind him.

“So… you found her? But you didn’t bring her to the mansion?” Cal said as she and Axel walked down a street the following day. 

“Yeah… well…” Axel said shyly… His large hands slid into the pockets of his blue jeans as they walked through the streets. He was dressed in jeans and a button up yellow shirt while his friend was in a bright red strapless dress and high heels climbing her closer to his height. 

“Did you get shy?” Cal said teasingly as they walked. “Mmmmm popcorn, and candy!” She called out skipping in the direction of the scent. 

Unlike the rest of the Gods, it was an act of caution that someone was with Axel at all times. The fact that he was on his own while he was with Lee last night was surprising that everyone made it out alive. A long troubled sigh left the curly haired young man as he walked towards the smells before stopping at an open bay window. “No way… Cal!” He called out to his friend who stopped in her skip and turned, his green gaze focused on the building he stopped at looking inside. “Cal, it’s her studio…” With that and his redheaded friend on his heels, he pulled open the door and entered into the quiet studio. 

“Lee?” He called out softly.
