His parents and sister were away today, off to visit some friend of a friend of a friend... whatever the case, Merric didn't want to go. He lied to them, saying something about having band practice all afternoon, and he couldn't avoid it. In reality, he'd invited Odette over. His intention was to thank her for the gift (if he did think the swan was a little... ah, coincidental? Given his role as a Negaverse agent lately) and to start fresh.
And marathon watch Star Wars. Why? Because Star Wars was awesome and he hadn't had a day off in three weeks. Plus, he'd get to cuddle with Odette, drink in her presence, enjoy the smell of her shampoo, maybe cop a feel or two, and just generally enjoy themselves without any pressure from the Negaverse or senshi or what have you.
And maybe.. he'd play a little bass for her too. Merric pulled up to his house after retrieve said girlfriend on his bike and led her inside.
"It's not much, really. But if you ever need a place to crash for a night for whatever reason, we have an extra bedroom you could use. Watch for random toys; Jen still has issues picking up her own things..." he said as he guided her through the front and to the living room. It was cozy, with a couch and two fluffy pillows and blankets on it, and faced a moderately sized TV. The room was modestly furnished with a lot of pictures of tiny kid Merric and Jen, and a few wedding pictures of his parents. A fake fire place sat on one wall.
"We'll be in here.. you really don't want ot see the chaos that is my room right now..." You really didn't. It looked like someone ransacked it. Better she didn't see.

Odette was happy to be on Merric’s bike, happy that he had wanted to hang out with her today. She was so pleased that her gift did its job, and the letter as well. She glanced around his house happily when they got there, seeming completely thrilled to look at the pictures of her boyfriend as a kid, finding that extremely amusing and adorable. “Mer, you were…oh gosh. You’re the cutest little boy ever.”
If she ever needed a place to crash? Well, she never figured she’d be out of a home, but…
The gesture was wonderful. She found herself grinning from ear to ear. “Oh, Mer. I don’t mind. I’d…like to see your room. It’ll be nice to know how messy you are. Maybe I could even help you clean it later. Maybe. Doubtful, but maybe.”
She laughed then flopped onto the couch. “So, what’s the plan for tonight, Merric? Anything special you’ve thought of?”

He scratched his neck, attempting to not blush. "I was not. I was chubby and people had issues with my hair color... Anyway, you don't really want to see that... Trust me." He'd torn appart the place looking for that woman's star seed, only to remember an hour later that it was in his pocket of subspace that held everything else Negaverse related. Not even his girlfriend would be able to fix that mess.
He pulled out the DVD collection box of Star Wars. "Star Wars! A marathon of Episodes I thru VII." Merric pushed a few buttons on the TV and the DVD player, waking them back up. It was already set up so he just had to hit play for the first one. He flopped down on the couch next to her, took her face in his hands and kissed her hard for a moment. He pulled back and grinned playfully at her, pulling her into his side and focusing on the television and the opening credits.

Odette just smiled with the kiss, snuggling next to him, watching the credits roll. Her mind was wandering a little—Star Wars wasn’t really her thing…she would really have preferred to watch Lord of the Rings…something that was more…fantasy based, and not Sci-Fi. But…She let a little smile form on her face. The movie did say that Star Wars happened a long time ago…so…it was still somewhat history based…
Very, very loosely based…but she supposed it would suffice.
She glanced around the house, then nuzzled Merric a little. “So…you liked my letter and the sculpture?” The brunette gave a little smile. She hadn’t intended the sculpture to turn out as a Swan…she was honestly…a little over the whole ‘swan’ thing, but…that’s what her hands wanted to make…and she didn’t argue. She always made her best creations when she just zoned out like that.

He kissed her hair, closing his eyes and breathing in for a moment. Such wonderful shampoo....
"Yes, the swan sits next to the bass guitar you made for me way back when you were a stalker. It was a very nice gift," he said softly, eyes focused on her and not the credits. He'd seen Star Wars enough he knew what was going on.
Besides, from this angle he could see down his girlfriend's shirt and it was making him drool. And totally not wanting to shove his face down there... oh totally not.

Odette laughed softly, closing her own eyes. "Back from when I was a stalker...Well, guess being a stalker really paid off, don't you think. If I hadn't hunted you down that day, we wouldn't be here right now."
She grinned, life had been so much simpler back then. Stalking Merric, learning stupid things about history...
She missed it sometimes. But, she was still happy to be where she was at this moment. "You know, I think you're awesome."

"Your chest is amazing..." The words came out some what dazzed like and he didn't catch them until the sound had faded. He blinked and looked down at her ch-- FACE. AT HER FACE. His cheeks heated and he grinned sheepishly.
"Ah.. ah... and the rest of you too. You're wonderful," he said, cheeks bright red. Way to go Merric. Well know she knows where your mind is right now.

Odette just blinked, then stared at Merric, before looking down at her shirt, her own face slowly heating up, turning very, very red.
Oh. Oh...wow...awkward....Very awkward...
She cleared her throat, then pulled her shirt closer to herself. "Well, thanks, Mer...Um...Well. Movie! Yes. Movie! Star Wars. Yay. There's...stars...and wars involved..."
Oh Em Gee. He was staring at her boobs. She wasn't sure how to take this. It was...flattering and awkward at the same time. Though. More awkward then flattering...Oh boy. Long afternoon was going to be longer.

Merric chuckled and nuzzled her, bringing him into her lap. He wrapped his arms around her stomach and rested his chin on her shoulder. "Is my little Odey embarrased that her boyfriend is pleased with her bountiful chest?" he breathed into her ear, a smirk in his voice. His hands did nothing by hold her there, probably something Odette was thankful for.
Not that he didn't want to do something of course. A many somethings. But, ah, perhaps this wasn't the best time for that, eh?

Odette squirmed just a little, then relaxed, nuzzling him a little. "Hey, don't freak out this time, okay? But if you're oogling my chest, then I'm going to tell you that I love you again. So, I love you, Merric. You're the best thing to happen to me in a long time."
She smiled, then pressed closer, laughing. "Now, stop being a perv, and let's watch these movies. You know, next time we do this, Lord of the Rings. Star Wars hasn't ever really been my thing. Too...space like."
The brunette looked up at her, green eyes sparkling. This was what happiness felt like. Pressed close to someone that you loved.
She really did love him, and would protect him for as long as she could, she would...always be his. Always.

Heat flushed his cheeks and he kissed her hard. A rush of emotion tore through him for a moment and Merric looked at her with almost liquid silver eyes. He kissed her again and again, hand coming up to cup her face.
"And I love you... so much... you make my heart sing..." he said between kisses. It was lame, and stupid, and totally cheesy but it was the honest to the Greater Youma truth. He might not have been able to accept it when she first said it, but he could damn well accept it now.
There was nothing but an overflow of emotion within him. Movies were forgotten and he soley focused on her, his one spec of light in a sea of darkness. It was as though she was something he couldn't get enough, like a star seed he couldn't bring himself to destroy or give over. He wanted more of it, of her, and be consumed by it.
And he'd be damned if he was going to stop now...

He loved her. He said he loved her. Odette felt her heart pound and grinned, returning his kisses. This...must have been one of the happiest moments of her life...and she wasn't going to let anything...anything distract her from him.
He was her hero, her knight in shining armor, the one who gave her purpose, who kept her focused, who enabled her to endure all the pain from stupid steel toed boots, helped her to withstand the smell of garbage that she still smelled every so often, even though she had showered many, many times since that night.
He was her everything.
And she was happier in his arms then anywhere else in the whole world.
She smiled, then let herself get lost in his kisses, not wanting to waste any moment.
