Epilogue: Love you

Perseus POV

"Guys, release me a bit, it's a bit too warm."

"Why?" Ruka asked, "I thought that body warmth was the way."

"Yes, but not only am I sweating, but having beautiful naked women cling on to me from all directions is a bit...well...too much."

It seems that the others were still asleep with only Ruka awake as she sat up with me, I'm quite tired, but it is what it is, when they asked me to warm them up due to the cold weather, I should have picked up on the hints.

"It's 5 in the morning, when is Orion's training?" Ruka asked

"4 hours, I'll just shower now and go make breakfast ahead of time."

"Shower? Let's take a bath, I'll join you. We got plenty of time."

*****

As I sink into the warm embrace of the bathtub, the fragrant bubbles enveloping us both, I was just keeping my mind blank, even though I knew the date of it was far away, the idea of just sending my kids back to the past makes me think a lot.

Naomi also visited a couple of times in secret, but mostly she stayed away. I've also made a decision to be slightly active after a bit, to go and travel to other worlds to eliminate the dangerous Perseus Silvers like my other counterpart, but it'll probably take 20 decades before then, I want my kids grown up.

Ruka joined the bath and sat in between my lap as we then just enjoyed the silence, the peaceful silence is broken only by the soothing sounds of our breathing and the occasional ripple of water as we shift slightly. 

I wrapped my arms around her waist, drawing her close against my chest. She leans back into my embrace, fitting perfectly against me as we both sink deeper into the soothing waters of the bathtub.

"Are you getting seduced?" she asked

"Are we still playing this game?"

"Depends, I don't think I've had enough yet."

"Not enough of what? The bet? You've lost many times over just last night alone."

"Why? You want number 11?"

"We might have to discuss that with the others."

"Who cares about their decision."

"We all live in the same house."

"If you want...there's one spot where no matter how many times we do it...I won't get pregnant...we've done it before."

"Just rest, let's do it tomorrow or something, we have a long day ahead of us."

"Fine, promise me."

"Sure."

"Love you."
