In the Eye of the Beholder

[Demeter]

Cian groaned as the phone started to ring. He was tired damnit. He wanted sleep. And he was only wearing a blanket. Cian sighed when he saw Cera standing several feet away from a screaming phone. He leaned over, swooped up the phone and spoke. "Cera is otherwise entertained at this moment. No need to worry, she is perfectly safe and ho harm has been done. Good bye." He clicked the off button and threw the phone on the pillows.

Keeping a carefull hold on the blanket, Cian stood and crossed over to Cera. "Come on now, Cera. Lets go back to bed and get some more sleep. A nice long nap." Cian steered Cera over to the bed, got her settled and then flopped down on his side of the bed. "Sleep, Cera, and then I will explain everything in detail and this will hopefully be before your mother has the cops break down your door."

Cera was staring at the spot the phone previously was as Cian spoke to her screaming mother. Picking at her fingernails and blinking rather quickly she heard he mother trying to interject Cian's explaination and just as quickly as his explaination was over, he hung up on her.

Cian came over to her and started to steer her back to bed, thankfully since she wouldn't be able to if she was by herself. Laying down she stared up at him and as though she were a tightly wound coil, looking into his eyes she completely relaxed and smiled. Snuggling under the blankets a little more she then grabbed and laid a small kiss on his finger tip as he withdrew. It was when he was out of immediate range that her eyes popped open and her head freaked out..'oh no did I just kiss his finger? why did I do that? oh no, not good...' but as soon as he returned to the bed and laid next to her again, her brain shut up and she probably would have purred if she was able to.
