"Wonderful. My girlfriend has now turned abusive. And here I thought this relationship couldn't get any better," Charon said jokingly, just before nudging her back. This could turn out to be very interesting, he thought, and smiled at the thought.

The heat rose to her cheeks on the word girlfriend and she returned her vision forward. Rael smiled, and even let a small amount of laughter escape her lips in response to what he said next. "You don't think things through very clearly, do you?" she asked fully amused. "First you try to get lost in a castle that people accidentally get lost in everyday, then you wander with someone you don't know, and then you don't think about all of the possible directions a relationship can go in."
She playfully stepped closer to his side and bumped him, "but it seems not thinking things through can be a good thing." She looked back up at him, into his eyes, and smirked.

"Actually, it's not that I don't think things through," Charon sadi. "It's more that I just refuse to think." he kept his tone level as he said this, to give the impression that he was speaking the truth, but the grin on his face proved he was lying.
"Although I do make exceptions to this rule. Like when I'm thinking about you," he added.

Rael listened to his words and tone of voice, she could tell he he was lying, even without the grin. Her smirk turned into a full blown smile, and she felt rather giddy. "Nice recovery there," Rael said. "However, I think I'd rather own up to not thinking things through, over not thinking at all. Even if there are exceptions."
She let go of his hand, and placed her own on his upper arm and shoved him lightly. She ran down the stairs to the landing, turned around, and waited for him.

Charon ran down most of the way down the stairs, then jumped the last five. He turned to Rael and said, "You think that was just a recovery, that I didn't just tell the truth?" Of course, he was still wearing the grin. He pushed her gently, in mock retaliation for being pushed before, then took her hand again. "You'd better learn to tell the difference between when I'm joking and when I'm serious," he continued jokingly.

Rael watched as he ran after her, and jumped down the last few stairs. The smile she wore widened as he questioned her about his statement a moment ago. When he pushed her, she took a dramatic step back, but when he took her hand, she stepped much closer to him than she had been. After he spoke, she poked a finger at his chest with her free hand, and smiled. "And you had better learn to recover your words more smoothly," she said as she looked up into his face, amused.

"And if I don't?" The look on Charon's face dared Rael to make some sort of horrible threat. While his excuse for grinning so much was his jokes, the truth was that he couldn't have stopped even if he had wanted to. Being in Rael's presence made him not want to stop, though, so it was a good thing he couldn't.

The look on Charon's face extremely amused her, if he wanted a threat, he would receive one. "Then I guess you will never know how nice I can be," she said through the grin she wore. Rael stepped closer to him, close enough that she could feel his body heat. "And I can be tremendously unpleasant," she jokingly whispered. She let her eyes, full of playfulness, look into his.

"Aw jeez. You're trying to turn me into one of those good little boys, aren't you?" Charon said, feigning disgust. "The kind of guy that always behaves perfectly for his girlfriend." he shook his head. "I can't be that sort of guy. It'd take all the fun out of life." He grinned at Rael again to make sure she knew he was joking.

"Why wouldn't you want to be one of those types?" She knew he had been joking, and was having fun joking back. "They're the one's who always get rewards. I would have thought you were the reward type," she smiled. "However, if you prefer not to be that type," she started to take a step back. "Then I guess, that's that," she said casually.

"Oh, now that's just cruel. That's like putting a knight so the king's in check, and he has to move it away from the queen, which the knight will take on the next turn," Charon said.
"You're making me choose between being me and being who you're telling me to be, just so that i can get some rewards. I'm not sure I can forgive that one," he added teasingly.

Rael's face took on a mockingly hurt expression. "So, you don't want rewards?" She turned her head slightly to the right to look away from him. "I guess that means I can't gain your forgiveness back, then." Rael looked back up into his face, with a coy smile. "It's a shame really, because I have a whole list of rewards. Things ranging from star gazing, to shoe polishing, to hugs." She widened her smile, so it covered all of her face.

Charon adopted a look of playful interest. "Can I see this list written out, and what I have to do for each reward, please?" he asked. "Mybe I spoke too soon and you could possibly win back forgiveness." He grinned at her, and the thought of how lucky he was ran through his mind again.

"Well, I don't know. That'd involve a lot of work," she smiled playfully. "I mean, the whole process could take hours. I'd have to double check the list to make sure a reward isn't double listed, then double check the reward attaining part to make sure each one may be received through a different means. Of course, I'd have to make three copies, one for you, one for me, and one for the lawyer. And I'd have to make a terms and agreement paper, and we'd both have to have a copy of that, and so would the lawyer."
She turned her head to the right again, and ran her fingers through her hair, exposing a bit of the side of her neck. "The whole process would be costly, so it depends on how much you're willing to pay for the copy." She smiled and looked back at him.

"Hmmm.....how about we just go with a verbal version, then? It'll be just as good, but offers me more loopholes," Charon said. He smiled at her and added, "Not to mention I save you the trouble of having to write this all down and contact a lawyer."
