Holland's statement before parting seemed to surprise her. Aphrodite didn't say anything, but she lifted her head enough to make eye contact with him before he slipped out the door. When he was gone she was left with the buzzing silence of the exam room and her own thoughts. Which were racing. Between the events of the day and the statement Holland had left her with, there was a lot to think about.
There was a fluttering feeling her in her stomach when he returned. A surprise bit of nervousness. The kind that bubbled up when you really liked someone. A huge sigh of relief escaped her when she took the mug from him. "You're a saint," she breathed, holding the mug in both hands and enjoying the warmth for a moment. She picked through the selection he had brought for her and smiled when she saw an Earl Grey in the bunch. She didn't even care that it was from a bargain variety pack. She held the mug in one hand, tearing the little package with her teeth. They'd returned to normal while he was gone. Her eyes as well. They were wine purple and gazing at him with their usual intensity. She dropped the tea bag into the water, discarding the trash on the table beside her.
While she waited for the tea to steep, she leaned forward just enough to bring her face close to his. She was careful not to touch him. She was still covered in dirt, and other things. She air kissed the space near his cheek. "Thank you," she said, sitting back. "For everything. Were they able to get everyone released?"

I fear no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) I want no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true) and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant and whatever a sun will always sing is you.
