“Cannot sleep?” Hela heard from behind her “yes, you as well?” She replied, she knew who it was from just the pitch of the voice. (whatever that could mean she doesn’t know herself) “No I just woke up” The voice started but paused seemed like she was trying to choose her words. Finally went it felt like she had the right words she started back up again

“I have always been a early riser..” she twisted her palm in her hand “Really? At the dawn of the day, I’ve never seen you up at this time my dear Mantis” The taller woman turned with a soft smile on her face walking towards Mantis “Sometimes I do! Well not a-lot it is like a random thing??” she blushed as red as a pepper, fidgeting with her hair, bouncing up and down slightly, and her antenna’s were brightly shining.

Hela could keep this picture in her mind forever, if she wanted to, she couldn’t believe she did this to the shorter woman. She flicked her hands away from her hair “Stop that. You’re pulling your hair, might rip it out” she grinned making Mantis turn even redder but she was interested in what Hela would do next. “We should get some sleep” The taller raven haired woman walked away while announcing it and the shorter raven haired woman followed. “You are right! Do you need me to walk with you?” She spoke fast and quick but loud enough for the other to hear. “If you want, you could join me in my chambers?”

Sure her ego was big but she didn’t want the other woman to say no. She had said it with a bit of desperation that she wished didn’t come out but it’s so uncontrollable being around her. “I would love too!!” she almost screamed it out before covering her mouth. “Sorry…” Hela giggled “Come along.” as they walked through the doors and towards Hela’s chambers to rest.
