Obie had returned to her room as soon as she got back from going to her appointment with Jess. She quickly took a shower and changed her clothes. She knew she had promised Nato she would come to him as soon as she got on campus, but she needed a moment to herself to fully realize how close she had come to losing everything about her that she had worked so hard to build. Quickly, she left her room and walked outside. She knew he wouldn't be in his room. With the prospects of what news she could be bringing back, she knew that he wouldn't be found amongst the confining walls of the dorms. She made her way out to the gardens to where the roses were still in full bloom, and smiled when she caught sight of silver hair amongst the bright red blooms.

Nato had been smelling the roses growing rather nervous at the possible news. Obie was due back any moment, what was taking her so long? He wondered, twirling a loose rose in hand he took in another wif of its fragrant smell. It was at the sound of foot steps crunching along the follage the brought his attention to someone nearby. He didn't have to guess who it was... "What news have you?" He asked remaing calm though his nerves had reached a peek and could take no more abuse at this point.

Obie stopped near him and took in the way the sunlight glinted off of his hair. She had never in her entire life felt happiness like this and she wanted to savor it for a moment before she got his reaction to her news.
"Negative. I'm not pregnant," she smiled brightly and waited.

There was a slight disappointment as shown in the careless way he tossed the rose over his shoulder. However, upon rising to his feet he let out a puff of air. Hands on his hips he smiled slightly, "Well now you just destroyed all my hopes of becoming a father...how do you feel about that?" he asked but didn't press for an answer as he had already cleared the space between them and brought her into a warm hug. "I'm glad for you...for the both of us. How do you fair?" He asked rubbing her back gently.

Obie smirked at the teasing jibe and allowed him to wrap his arms tightly around her. She rested her head on his chest and welcomed his warmth.
"I've never felt relief or happiness like this in my entire life. I was so scared, but now there's nothing to be scared of," she replied, lightly nuzzling his chest with her cheek. "Unfortunately I'm still unable to eat though. I was most annoyed to find that out. But hopefully it was just nerves. How are you feeling now that we know for sure?" she asked lifting her head to look up to him.

He shrugged, "There's a little disappointment but I was not yet ready to hear the pitter-patter of feet. So I am relieved as well." He said taking her by the hand he walked over to roses and sat bringing her into his lap. "I am quite content with this news, Juvel. What say we go out and have a small celebration. I'm quite famished and well..." he arched a brow poking her lightly on the cheek. "You can simply watch me eat." He said finally falling on his back he let her fall with him making sure to keep her safe. "What say you to that?"

"Says I to that, yes," she smiled and pushed herself up to look down at him as she was stretched out over him. Her long black hair spilled down around her shoulders, curtaining them from the rest of the world.
"But no chocolate for you. I'm not quite ready to find myself in another of these fixes so soon after finding relief," she said, arching an eyebrow.

"Ack! You've disrupted my plans for the evening." He said in mock surprise. He reached out tickling her sides to hear her laugh a bit before releasing her from his grip. "Well then, maiden let us make haste. I don't want to leave the mutts unattended for too long. They've found quite the habit of chewing on the furniture." he said and lifted himself off the ground bringing her up with him. "Where to? I'm hardly picky at this point."

Obie giggled lightly when he tickled her and squirmed to get away from him until he stopped. At his now familiar language, she pulled away from him so he could rise to his feet and pull her to hers.
"Truly I would like to try my hand at cooking for you. So maybe a trip to the store for groceries and then back to one of our rooms?" she asked slipping her arm through his. "And don't you dare say anything snide about my cooking skills. I'm not a total loss as a woman."

Nato simply smirked taking her arm into his own. "Very well woman, show me these cooking skills of yours. Its about time I'm treated like the king that I am." He spoke and they headed off for the store. "I would like it if you cooked in my room. I have an assignment I need to finish recording. I leave you too the kitchen and all its devices, deal?"

"Some king you are," she smirked as she led him off to the store. They quickly gathered the groceries she needed and returned to his room.
She smiled as he started playing his keyboard and she set about cooking. In no time the savory scent of lamb and roasted vegetables permeated his dorm room. Smiling, she put together the lamb gyros and placed them on plates with pilaf. She placed the plates on the table and grabbed some juice out of his fridge and poured it into some glasses.
"Alright. Dinner's ready," she said, placing some left over lamb in Atreyu and Pantera's bowls.

The mutts were quick to devour their meal, Atreyu giving a bark in appriciation, even Pantera was resorted to giving a slight doggie snort.
Nato finished up his recording liking the new tune which was more jazzy then his usual love for classical tunes. He could smell the food in his room and quickly finished up to join Obie in the kitchen. "What has my servant cooked for her king this day?" he asked playfully coming up behind her as she set the table. "I'm famished, hurry...you make your king wait too long." he practically whinned and favored her with a quick n** of her ear lobe.

Obie coolly walked away, a playful smile on her lips as well.
"Call me servant again and your furry little friends will be eating your meal," she said, grabbing the silverware and returning to the table. She set the silverware down and turned to face him.
"Your dinner is ready Lord Riddles," she smirked and pulled him down to lightly kiss his lips. Before he could react properly, she pulled away and sat down in her seat.
"You had better hurry, or I might get insulted," she said, looking down at her plate. She was so hungry, but she could feel the start of nausea setting in.

Thanatos, chuckled at her antics and took his seat after she ducked out of his reach. Not fair to kiss someone and run...he would remember to torture her thusly. He could smell the food on his plate and it made his mouth water with anticipation. "It smells divine, Juvel...now let us parttake of such a find feast." He said in some form of prayer before digging in. And as usual for him, he was always quite silent during meals.
But just this once, "I do believe you have captured my heart." he said playfully. "Its quite delicious actually, a bit salty here, and then there's this stuff over here I'm not to familiar with...you could do well to..." he began to nitpick but stopped short and smiled. "I jest really. It is all supurb."

Obie smiled at his compliment and picked up her fork. She started to eat slowly. It was good. All those nights her mother made her cook for the family seemed to have paid off, even more so when he finally spoke again. She looked up in surprise, then frowned a bit as he started to nitpick. But then he stopped and she smiled.
"Thank you," she said, taking a small bite of her gyro. There was no way she was going to finish all of this, she realized. She waved her hand to Atreyu and started feeding him bits of the meat from her plate.
"That was a nice piece you were working on. What were you recording it for?" she asked, giving Atreyu the last bit of meat and picking up her fork to start eating the pilaf. She figured she should at least try to get something in her stomach.
