Snuggle Kisses

Apollo loved to go bug the Huntresses but there was another motive for there altogether; his sister's lieutenant. Ever since Thalia had taken over from Zoe, everything around the Hunt seemed way less boring and more lively. She was a natural born leader with a sad past and you could see that in her eyes. Yet Apollo felt like it was his job to make all of that sadness go away. He felt like he was the one who needed to make Thalia better.

It was night, his favorite time to visit Thalia because she was usually tired and she liked to snuggle. Apollo approached the raven haired huntress and wrapped his arms around her waist, "Hey there beautiful."

Thalia rolled her eyes, "What do you want Apollo?"

"Just to come see my favorite Huntress." he whispered in her ear.

"How many other Huntresses have you ever said that to?" Thalia asked with a dark laugh.

"Thalia you know I really do care about you." he whispered.

Thalia didn't say anything but she turned around and wrapped her own arms around Apollo. He smiled and kissed the top of her head and pulled her closer. Thalia nuzzled her head into the crook of his neck, "I'm glad you came here tonight."

"Why is everything alright?" he murmured.

She shook her head, "Not really."

"What's wrong Thals?" he asked.

"I've just been thinking about things." she whispered.

Apollo kissed her forehead and she snuggled up to him, "Well I'm here now and you don't have to worry about things."

Thalia smiled against his neck, "Thank you Apollo."

He smiled and sang to her softly until she fell asleep. He kissed her softly and absorbed the feeling he got when he was close to her. He hadn't gotten this feeling with any mortal throughout his godhood. There was definitely something special about her and he didn't know what it was about her but he loved her.
