"We slept well, Apollo." Adel said answering for them both. "How about you? You look as though you spent the night trying to catch a fly....and failing."
Ednmyion winced at Adels' bluntness. "Breakfast smells good. Adel, let's wait for the eggs to be done." he sat down by the fire, warming himself up, rubbing his arms. It was rather cool this morning.

Apollo doesn't respond immediately and doesn't falter in his seemingly peaceful mood, but it was obvious there was no light in his eyes. He finally answers, "I guess the early setting of the sun set my body's schedule out of sorts... I'll sleep better tonight, probably..."
He pulls up a large platter and rakes the fish fillets onto it. He had already skinned and gutted the fish before it hit the pan, and now it was all cut into neatly seasoned fillets. Yea, he had been up a while. Taking it as a break, he takes the blanket from his shoulders, the same that Endymion gave him last night and hands it over to his once lover. "How do you guys like your eggs?"

(( I'm only online a few mintues. IM me. ))
"Oh, I wanted to ask about that....why did the sun set so soon?" He asked. just as Adel said at the smae moment: "I would like my eggs over-easy Apollo." teh mortal boy pused and glanced at Endmyion, he gave Dymion an akward smile. "Sorry, you go first."
"Oh no..." Endmyion smiled weakly. "Go ahead and eat. You can take the first eggs."

Apollo laughs slightly at both of them. He really didn't want to reveal why the sun had set so early, but he knew not answering would only hurt their view of him more. But he does use the time it takes to crack two eggs into the skillet before answering, his voice soft but steady.
"The Sun is very sensitive to changes in my body. I guess you could say that She's skittish. All the same, it's a defense mechanism for both of use. She rids me of the worry of charting Her progress through the sky, and I relieve Her the stress of a potentially distracted path. If She is too close or too far, it could be dangerous to everyone, by a freeze or a massive fire. She just puts Her path on autopilot and speeds through with what little direction I can give. She should be fine today."
By the time he was done speaking, the first batch of eggs was done and he eases the over-easy eggs onto a plate, handing it to Adel. He nonchalantly looks to Endymion, "How do you like your eggs?"

"Uhh....Scrambled please" Endmyion rubbed warmth into this hands shivering a bit. Couldn't you.....bring the sun a just a littel closer? enough to melt the snow and give the earth a littel more warmth?" The Young God truned his pleading blue eyes to Apollo. "Perhas with some warmth, people will believe in spring again...

Apollo nods and cracks the eggs into the skillet, scrambling them with a spare fork. Engrossed in his work, he looks up towards Endymion at the plea. His smile almost sad, he replies in a slightly weak voice, "I will try, my love. It is not as easy as it seems. But I will work on it. My hold on the suneven this morning is tenuous. What you say can be done, but it will take time."
He slides the scrambled eggs into a plate and hands it to Endymion, holding his eyes the whole time.

Endmyion nods and accepts the eggs, sticking it with a fork and eating, he glanced away from Apollo, unable to meet his eyes for very long he swollows down the egg and closes his eyes. He remebered how spring was like, theh warming air the smell of freash earth and growing leaves...and teh eariest flowers, bravely poking thire heads from the melting snow.
"Mmmm...." he kept the image of spring strong in his mind. if he could imagine and believe hard enough then maybe...just maybe....it will become true.

Apollo gazes at his lover for a moment or so. No one had ever really considered the possibility. But there was much that had to be taken into account. He would have to change the whole path of the earth. Moving it just a little could change the length of days and years. Not to mention setting the moon off course. And if he were to get the sun too close... Gods forbid... He shudders at the though of earth's destruction laying in his hands. He'd have to discuss some things with Diana, that was certain. But if he could alter the course of the earth in it's revolutions around the sun just slightly, then this could work without too many bad consequences.

Endmyion smiled, lost in his day dream of spring. Adel finished his breakfast and nudged his friend. "Dymion? are you gonna eat?"
The young God snapped back to reality, "Oh, yes." he ate the rest of the fish and eggs glanceing at Apollo from time to time before putting the empty plates away and bringing out the fishing poles.
Diana still wasn't back.

The sun god looks up as they rise and give them both smiles as he begins to wash their dishes in a large pot of warm soapy water, "If you two happen to see Diana, can you tell her that I need to talk to her some time today?"
Out of nowhere, he casts warmth to both of them, a lingering heat that wards away the cold wind and even the icy chill of the river water. If he couldn't give Endymion a full Spring today, then he would atleast give him a taste.

At the edge of the camp, Endmyion felt the warmth and truned around to give Apollo a smile of pure joy. "Apollo?"

Apollo's heart skips a beat. The warmth in his lover's voice, that perfect smile. He had seen it many times before, but he never felt he had truly appreciated it until now. Eyes shining with tears of joy, he gives the other immortal a small tender smile, shrugging lightly as if his gift was of no importance. He does hold the other's smile as he whispers into his mind, We still need to train today... But relax now and have some fun. Promise me you will."

Still smiling, he nods, not braking the eye contact he truns back to Adel.
"Let's go fishing!" The young boy was almost skipping along side his friend.
Once at the river Adel found a likely place and opened the tackle box. Endmyion out his fishing pole down and told the boy he was going to look for Diana. He remembered that Apollo had wanted to talk to her.
Seeing some clouds of steam down river he supposed that Diana had warmed up the river water to take her bath. Blushing in embarrassment he walked around the screen of high rocks.
He stopped there gaping.
Diana had indeed warmed up the water, a small pool of river water had turned into a hot spring with steam rising nearly obscuring the goddess. Diana herself wasn't in the water, she was dressed and was standing on the warmed rocks barefooted. Her dress was slightly blowing from the steam showing her well formed legs, her skin seemed to glow, her silvery hair floating in streams about her beautiful face.
Endymion's heart started to beat double time. How could have he had been so blind? Diana was beautiful. For a long moment he just stared at this heavenly being.
The Moon-Goddess turned, her quiet thoughts interrupted by his appearance. Her silver eyes widened in surprise. "Endmyion?" She leapt lightly from the rock to the cold ground in front of him. "Did you want to bathe?"
At the question the Young God felt his face grow warm. No, of chose she wasn't offering to bathe with him, she just taken her bath. He glanced away, completely forgetting the reason why he sought her out.
"Uh....no, no thanks....I-I..uhh..."

Apollo quietly continues to wash the dishes, drying them afterwards. Blinking, he suddenly looks up. Diana was bathing and he had sent Endymion to find her. He could have smacked himself. He had seen, or rather felt, Diana's smiles and evident happiness after the incident. But then, what was he to do. He couldn't challenge Diana's actions toward Endymion when the god still distrusted him. It would be like... like claiming something that wasn't his to begin with. He feels his heart clench in his chest, sudenly wondering if Endymion was still wearing the ring he gave him.
Determined to get his mind off the hurtful subject, he packs up the dishes and food before scaling a tall tree. Sitting on the strongest upper-most branch available, he closes his eyes and lifts his hands just slightly, in a receiving manner. If he could get Spring for Endymion, then maybe, just maybe.... He begins to counsel with the Sun.

The ring was still on his finger, Endmyion was smiling, following Diana up the slope of of a high hill. The Goddess clib tot he highest rock and waited for Dymion to catch up, the young God ran up tettering sightly as they lughed balanceing close to eachother on the rock.
Lughing, Diana jumped off the rock and just floated in midair. Endmyion's expression of suprise made her laugh more. "Come on Endmyion it's easy," she held out a hand to him. "Come on, try it."
The Young God gazed up in her in amazment he hesitently raised up a hand to her, but she seemed just a little out of reatch "Don;t think about it, just do it." She smiled encoragelingly.
Endmyion braced his legs and leaped, grabing for her hand. Diana giggles and gripped his hand tight, "Yay! your doing it!" he looked down he was floating seveal feet above the ground. Dmyion smiled.
