Blaze smiled, looping her arms around his neck. "The flowers suit you"she said softly, smiling brightly at him,blowing a lock of hair out of her face.

"They'd look prettier on you." He laughed a little nuzzling his nose against her's. "How are you?" Apollo asked still grinning.

Blaze could only grin, "Well as can be I suppose," her green eyes darkened a little as she said it, but she quickly pushed it away.

"You sure?" He asked in a softer tone. He took one of her hands and laced their fingers. "I don't want you hurting."

"I'm perfectly fine," she said softly, "Though I do worry for my brothers…" she sighed, "Some days I think I have it easy compared to them… Or possibly harder because I worry for all of them.."

"I'm sorry Blaze, I can't help can I?" He asked with a sympathetic look. "I really want to help."

"No, not really" said Blaze, "So for now, why don't we just enjoy this time together…" she smiled.

"Of course." He gave her a soft look. "What do you want to do?" He asked swinging their hands back and forth. "We could go for a walk and just talk like usual, or we could do something else."

Blaze smiled, "I think a walk would be nice" she said, her green eyes shining brightly as she looked up at him, seeming to forget her worries.

"Alright, what do you want to talk about?" He asked as he slowly pulled her along towards the path leading through the woods.

"Well, what about your life?" she asked, "We talk an awful lot about me, I want to get to know you"

He sighed. "My life isn't very interesting. In fact I just do the same thing every day." He looked at her giving her hand a squeeze. "Me and my brother go out to the small school and help the teacher teach the kids. Then after school, we go to the lake and help fish for our dinner." He shrugged laying his head on her best he could. "Pretty boring if you ask me."

"Not necessarily" said Blaze softly, "What about your brother? What's he like?"

"He's kinda like you. Stoic at first glance but sweet deep down." He smiled thinking of him. "He's super fun to hang out with."

Blaze hummed, "Alright.." she said softly, watching the other's expression.

"What's your favorite sound? I know it's weird. But do you have one?" He asked looking around at the trees.

"Probably the sound of my brother's calling.." she said softly, "It means they're safe… and right now, aside from you they're all I have."

He gave her a soft look. "You wanna go sit down?" He asked putting an arm around her. "We can talk, and I could braid your hair or something." He laughed a little.

"That sounds like a lovely idea!" she said happily, "Hey, maybe I'll even wake up with it"

Apollo laughed and pulled her over to a sunny patch. "Maybe you will." He smiled sitting down on the grass. "Sit here." He said patting the spot in front of him.

Blaze grinned, moving to sit in front of him, happy to allow him to do whatever he wished with her long fire colored hair.

"It's so pretty, and soft." He smiled running his fingers through it. "How many brothers do you have again?" He asked playing with her hair.

"Four" she said, "All but one are technically older than me." she hummed at the thought, enjoying the sensation of his fingers in her hair.

"Do you still have your parents?" He asked sensitively. He didn't want to bring up a sore subject. "My memory has been kind of foggy lately." He noted starting to braid her hair.

"No," she said softly, her tone hinting that it was a delicate topic, "Though I do have my adoptive father, and his son, my fifth brother."

He nodded. He could hear it in her tone. "That's nice, what's his name? Your brother." He asked quietly:

"Which one, the adopted one?" she asked, "Or the other four?"

"Why not all of them?" He asked with a smile. He hummed softly as they sat in the peace.

Blaze smiled at that, "Alright, well, my adopted brother's name is Morrocano.." she said, settling back as he braided her hair.

"Mmm, interesting name." He chuckled tightening his hold on her hair.
