Dimitrius chuckled as she came back with a blush. Already having pulled on his pants while she had left for the kitchen, Dimitrius walked over to her and placed a tender kiss upon her neck. Wrapping his arms around her waist, Dimitrius took his time to reply to her earlier question between his kisses,"Omelets sound good, but no mushrooms for mine, just peppers and cheese."

"Peppers and cheese then." Ariala smiled, wrapping her arms around Dimitrus to give him a tender kiss. "Keep being irresitable." Ariala teased between kisses. "And you may not get breakfast at all." She laughed before giving him a last kiss and shifting out of his embrace to skip back to the kitchen.

Ariala found a bowl, beating eggs and milk inside of it to add to a hot pan before chopping up peppers and grating cheese, finding some of the spare mushrooms from the nigth before.

Following Ariala out to the kitchen, Dimitrius walked over to the table to clear off what they had left the previous night. Holding up the crandberry-raspberry juice container, Dimitrius turned to Ariala and inquired with a chuckle, "Think this is any good? The pizza's ruined, I'm afraid."

"It should be." Ariala smiled as she lifted the corner of the omelet to let the uncooked egg flow underneath, doing the same to both pan. When she was sure the eggs were nearly fully cooked, Ariala added mushrooms and cheese to one omelet while adding peppers and cheese to the other. She carefully folded the omelets over, not breaking either.

Smiling at her success, Ariala pulled out two plates and placed an omelet on each. "Done." She said happily as she looked at her two pefect omelets.

Dimitrius nodded as he put the juice into the icebox and got out the orange juice. "Give me just a moment, let me clear off the pizza and wipe down the table," he called over to her as he picked up the left over pizza, threw it away, and placed the dish in the sink.

Wringing out a wet washcloth, Dimitrius wiped down the table before tossing the cloth into the sink. Washing his hands, he got down two glasses, as well as silverware, and brought over the orange juice, signaling that the omelets could be brought over.

Ariala brought the omelets to the table, putting the one with peppers in front of Dimitrius while the one with mushrooms in front of her own seat. "I didn't even break them." Ariala laughed. "You should be afraid. I'm gaining on you." She teased, giving Dimitrius a small wink before taking a bite out of her omelet. Perfect, as usually the case with her breakfasts. Too bad her other meals didn't reach quite the same standards.

Dimitrius chuckled as he poured them each a glass of juice before digging into his omelet. "Well, if you keep improving, I won't have to cook and I can become a lazy husband and make you do all the work. Then once I become fat and lose all of my handsome looks, what ever shall you do with me?" he teased as his foot gently brushed against hers.

"Hm, well I could always trade you in for a better looking Winter Elf." Ariala pondered. "Apparently I look exotic to them." She teased, grinning widely. "I'm sure someone would be willing to take in a helpless Spring Elf who lost her way." She said, giving him a wink.

Laughing, Dimitrius rolled his eyes playfully, "Oh of course. We Wingerglade folk are very helpful. All you need to do is turn on your charms and act completely lost in the market, and you're sure to have someone fall in love with you," he teased.

"However, I don't want to test that theory," he added with a laugh as he took a sip of his juice.

"Of course." Ariala said as she took another bite of her omelet. "I guess you're just stuck with me forever." She laughed before taking a few more bites of her omelet and sipping her juice.

Leaning across the small table, Dimitrius cupped Ariala's cheek and placed a tender kiss upon her forehead as he whispered, "I like that idea much better. I'd much rather you be with me and only me forever, than with some other Winter Elf."

Leaning back into his chair, he finished his omelet and juice. Bringing the dishes to the sink, Dimitrius teased over his shoulder and began to wash them, "That is, if you don't mind living with a fat, lazy, de-handsomed Winter Elf."

"Strangely I don't see that happening." Ariala laughed as she brought her own dishes over to the sink and began putting the dishes from the night before as Dimitrius washed. "But I think I might keep you anyways." She smiled as she put a pan away.

Dimitrius chuckled, "Mmm, don't be so sure, love. If your cooking stays this good, it may just happen," he added with a wink as he rinsed off another dish and placed it onto the empty towel upon the counter.

Ariala finished putting away the dishes from the night before. Standing behind Dimitrius, Ariala reached up to give his neck a kiss. "Maybe I should just starve you then?" She teased before leaving to get dressed for their walk in the forest.

Ariala showered quickly before pulling on a knee length skirt, white blouse and a slightly heavier coat then the night before. She found a pair of green flats to match her skirt before brushing her long hair that was still damp from her shower.

Chuckling as he finished up the dishes, Dimitrius simply shook his head and put the last of them on the towel to dry. The dishes drying, Dimitrius emptied the sink and went to the bathroom to brush his teeth and take a quick shower.

-

Walking into the bathroom, a towel wrapped around his hips, Dimitrius walked over to Ariala and placed a tender kiss upon her neck, "Starve me if you want, love. As long as I get to sleep beside you every night and wake up to your beautiful face in the mornings, I think I can live without food."

Placing one last kiss upon her neck, Dimitrius headed over to his closet and dresser. Picking out a simple white and blue-jean ensemble, Dimitrius began to get dressed.

Ariala blushed while Dimitrius got dressed, despite that she'd already seen him without clothes on. Feeling shy, Ariala moved out to the doorway and waited patiently for Dimitrius to be ready.

Finishing, Dimitrius pulled his hair back with a ribbon and grabbed a jacket. Putting it on, Dimitrius walked over to Ariala and look her hand as he placed a tender kiss upon her lips, "Ready to go exploring?"

"Yes." Ariala smiled excitedly. Leading him out the door, Ariala led Dimitrius through the metal gate and to the forest behind their small cottage. She walked carefully through the forest, avoiding roots and such, not wanting to make a fool of herself by tripping.

"Its so pretty out here." She smiled as she watched the sunlight hit a moss covered tree. Everything was green and lush, perfect. Ariala made herself at home, using her magic to cure a few withering plants. "Much better." She said, satisfied, after healing a rather dead looking tree.

Dimitrius chuckled as he teased, "Ari, you're making Winterglade land look like Elimlee. Do you miss home that much?"

"I don't like seeing plants die." Ariala pouted. "I like things green." She smiled softly.

"But I do miss home a bit." Ariala admitted softly. "We're going to have to go home soon. I have to attend my lessons. If I go without them for too long it'll only be more tiring to start again."

Dimitrius chuckled as he wrapped his arm around her shoulder and held her close, "I know, love, I was only teasing. We'll go back tomorrow afternoon, how does that sound?"

"That sounds good." Ariala smiled as they continued to walk. She leaned into Dimitrius as they walked, wrapping her arm around his waist. "My master's going to be upset that I've missed lessons for so long." Ariala laughed. "I'm sure he'll be alright when he realizes what's happened but I'm going to be worked hard." She added with a smile.

Dimitrius sighed, his tone hinted with sadness as he thought about putting Ariala into a bit of trouble on account of his selfishness, "Ari.. exactly how many lessons have I caused you to miss.."

"Only two." Ariala whispered quietly. "Or three." She added, her voice barely above a whisper. "But its really not that big of a deal." She said quickly, putting her arm around Dimitrius's side and hugging him close.

Sighing, Dimitrius looked down at Ariala, "Ari, you should have told me.. There's no question now, we're returning tomorrow morning so you can make it to your lesson. And if you get into a lot of trouble with your Master, I promise you, I'll talk to him and make him see that it was my fault.."
