iShatteredSanity: -While still holding Dixie into his arms and thanking her in a soft whispering tone, Demetrios felt a warmth on his chest. He knew that it was because Dixie was there, holding him and not letting go of him. He had said “Thank you” so many times, but it was not enough for him. He loved Dixie. She was not only his fallen angel with ink feathers; she was the one keeping him sane in a world filled with insanity in any form and shape. Pulling his head slightly backwards, Demetrios used his right hand to brush the hair that was hiding Dixie’s beautiful face. Smiling brightly while his eyes glistened, he leaned his head closer to hers and his lips pressed softly against her forehead. There he planted a soft kiss as he wrapped again his right arm around her, holding her tight and close to him, afraid that she could leave him.- “I bet that you have many questions, and I am willing to answer all of them. But first, what is this smell? It… kinda… smells like my grandma’s home.” –Demetrios asked and pulled his head slightly backwards so that he could stare into her beautiful eyes.-

CharlotteCarrendar; – The closeness shared, the two enveloped in their loving embrace, each having eyes only for the other. It did not matter that they were not seen as married in the eyes of God, and before witnesses, for their union was one that had been blessed, by the uniting of their troubled souls. For now joined as one, if any dared to try and break them apart, they would find themselves fighting against a power that is not even spoken of. They had barely spoken, letting their lips and bodies convey what their hearts felt, but of course, man cannot live on bread alone, and the smell that wafted from the kitchen, was one from his past. A scent that lingered, and infiltrated the senses, of this Greek man. “I bet that you have many questions, and I am willing to answer all of them. But first, what is this smell? It… kinda… smells like my grandma’s home.” Dixie bobbed her head with a certain amount of excitement. “Well…since this is Christmas, and..you are my family, I thought…I would try and cook for you like…a greek girl would. So, I got the ingredients to make Lamb and souvlaki. I know its not turkey…or pork…or..meat pies, but…I wanted to surprise you.”- she then remembered she had left the oven on, but had only marinated the meat. “I got caught up in drawing your Christmas present, and…fell asleep.” <3>
——————————————————————————————————————————–
iShatteredSanity: -Taking a few deep breaths from his nostrils and filling his lungs with air and the scent of his fallen angel, Demetrios did not wish for anything else. He had everything he ever wanted, an Aussie girl with a golden heart, a dark past and feathers of ink. Dixie was his everything and he was grateful that he had met her. Still smiling he listened to her talking about cooking for him like a Greek girl. While that made his smile widen, what made his heart skip a few beats was when she called Demetrios her family. If there was an aura around Demetrios, it would have the brightest of colors. Family. Yes, Dixie was his family. His woman. After having said that she did not wish to meet her parents again, and after him being an orphan, they only had each other. And NOBODY was to break them apart.- “You did surprise me. It smells DELICIOUS! And I don’t care what it is, as long as /you/ are the one who makes it.” –Demetrios said and planted another soft kiss on her forehead and then on her nose.- “So, do you need any help with the preparation?” –Demetrios asked Dixie, shifting his eyes from left to right in a comical way after she mentioned the Christmas present, something that he had completely forgotten about.-
——————————————————————————————————————————–
CharlotteCarrendar:- Demetrios’s reaction was one that made Dixie giggle. He appeared to be excited about the fact she was attempting a greek dish to celebrate their first Christmas together. A light kiss on her nose, and she swore she would never wash it….then she thought how awful that would be, and found herself smirking at her own silliness. Maybe it was from being lightheaded, at being caught slumbering, or just giddy from being back in the arms of her love. Either way, she had yet to finish preparing dinner, or explaining the Christmas gift. “I…could really use some help, I mean, sure I am wearing an apron and all, but I am not a qualified chef. But it smells good so far.”- At this moment, she also recalled the picture, and held her finger up. “Just a sec.”- trotting over to the desk, she picked up the image she had been working on, and brought it back over to Dem. She extended it towards him, top side up and smiled. “Merry Christmas. I wanted to get you a watch, but I couldn’t afford it. I thought though, this might mean more, since I now share your heart with her.” Dixie said softly. <3>
——————————————————————————————————————————–
iShatteredSanity: -Only when she mentioned the apron Demetrios realized that she was indeed wearing one. After letting go of her so that she could get his present, Demetrios looked at Dixie in her apron and gulped a couple of times. Damn, she looked so good in that, in more ways than one. Shifting his gaze from left to right and playing with his thumbs like a high school boy, Demetrios waited for her to come back. Once she was back, he looked at the picture that she had made. Yes, the picture of Marianna. A tear appeared on his right eye and rolled down on his cheek as he put the drawing back on his desk and wrapped his arms once more around her, pulling her in a warm embrace.- “Dixie… Thank you. This is the second best present that one has ever given me.” –Demetrios said and paused for a moment to look into her eyes once again.- “The first best present I ever had is you.” –Demetrios said and smiled once more.- “As for watches, well, they are fine and dandy, but they are not my style.” –He said and laughed softly to lighten up the mood.- “But I thank you, and I am sorry that I did not bring you something. Though I can think of something if you give me five minutes.” –Demetrios said and still held Dixie in his arms, but if she wanted to let go of him, he would pose no resistance.-
———————————————————————————————————————————
CharlotteCarrendar:- When Demetrios took the picture that Dixie drew, she held her hands behind her back, and tettered back and forth, heel to toe, wondering if he liked it. In a way it was an accepting of Marianna in her life, and that she honoured the love that Demetrios and her would have shared. Also her sacrifice and helping her love become a man. He was of course, the man she loved today because of Marianna. And, he did like it, taking her in his arms, and saying it was the second best present he ever had. Confused by this statement, Dixie had a perplexed expression, till Demetrios revealed that the best present was in fact; her. His laughter was felt through his entire body, and she shared this with him, till he mentioned he had no gift for her. “I don’t really need anything..”- Dixie mentioned with a shake of her head. Course, Demetrios was not finished, and went on to say. “Though, I can think of something if you give me five minutes.” Staring up into his eyes, she wondered what that could be. “Do I need to close my eyes?” <3>
———————————————————————————————————————————-
iShatteredSanity: -Demetrios knew that Dixie would not want something as a present, but he still felt like he had to get her something. He himself had spent some time away from Prague, away from all the unnecessary stress, well, as much as he could anyway. But he wanted to actually spend some time with Dixie away from that place. Smirking deviously he looked at Dixie as he sat down on his desk and turned on his laptop.- “Well, you don’t have to. But you can tell me which one is better, wood or stone?” –Demetrios asked Dixie as he stroked some keys on his laptop.-
———————————————————————————————————————————-
CharlotteCarrendar:- Dixie placed her hands down flat on the desk, tilting her head, as Demetrios asked “Well, you don’t have to. But you can tell me which one is better, wood or stone?” Now, Dixie wasn’t entirely sure what he meant by wood or stone, and blinked a few times, before thinking for a moment on which was better. “Err…wood?” she said quizzically, still feeling like she was in the dark and just making a guess. <3>
———————————————————————————————————————————-
iShatteredSanity: -Demetrios noticed the puzzled look on Dixie’s face and smiled at her. Listening to her choice, he could not help but smirk wider.- “I was hoping that you would choose wood.” –Demetrios said and looked at the monitor for a few seconds while stroking some keys as well. Then he rose from his seat so that he could grab his wallet from his back pocket. Once his wallet was out, he opened it and took out his credit card so that he could type the number on the field on the monitor.- “If Alexandros was around, he would bitch and moan at me for not using paypal or something, but there is not that option here.” –Demetrios said and shrugged his shoulders before typing again. A few more seconds had passed and Demetrios clapped his hands once before he turned the laptop so that Dixie could watch the screen. The image was that of a wooden house in Switzerland.- “Here is my present to you. A week or more in there.” (http://www1.iha.com/Vacation-rental/Switzerland/Valais/Riederalp/Mountain-chalet/Traumchalet_2846_1.htm&x=*tetfttxjnmqy47$smoug$t=A5A_wfl@@uklfb67E2670C.qowupijj45$cpn3RF9RLO ) –Demetrios said and rose from his seat, putting his credit card back in his pocket and leaving it on his desk.- “What do you think?” –Demetrios asked Dixie and waited to see her reaction.-
——————————————————————————————————————————–
CharlotteCarrendar:- Still not sure why a piece of wood, would be so exciting, she leaned forward slightly, as Demetrios kept tapping on the computer keyboard. Once Demetrios clapped his hands and turned around the lap top for her to see, Dixie’s eyes nearly fell out of her head. “Here is my present to you. A week or more in there.” SWITZERLAND! “That’s where they make toblerones…and…girls that yodel….and the family Von Trapp!” Well, maybe not entirely accurate, but Dixie was in shock. “A week? Oh my god. But what about the club? And…can you afford this, I mean…it looks expensive.”- Dixie fell back a bit and then uttered – “Switzerland…oh my god.” <3>
———————————————————————————————————————————-
iShatteredSanity: -Demetrios could not help himself but smirk like some guy in anime who rubs his chin after managing to stun some others using some skills or something. Uhm, ok, he did smirk. He did feel like he was the king of the world. Uhm… He did feel… Ok, he felt really good about making his Dixie happy and excited. Nodding to the words she spoke, he moved behind her and offered her a soft shoulder rub.- “You don’t have to worry about money. While I may not look like it, I do have money. Plus I just reserved that place for a week with the option of staying more if you like.” –Demetrios said and rubbed Dixie’s back softly.- “As for the club, I am sure that everyone has already made some plans to be away from Prague. Let’s not ruin the fun for them.” –Demetrios said again and planted a soft kiss on Dixie’s left shoulder blade.-
————————————————————————————————————————————
CharlotteCarrendar:- The warmth of Demetrios lips, as they brushed her shoulder blade, sent a shiver throughout her body, and she chuckled softly, knowing that a lot of the crew of Death Club were in fact on their Christmas vacations overseas. “You have a point. Inga, Sven, Kraus, Nikolas and Maggie are all in Japan at the moment. I even read on the text they took that old Nanna along. I wonder what that would be like. Travelling with someone that was around when the Titanic sank.” Dixie blinked at her own silly thoughts, then smiled. “So, Switzerland, here we come….after the lamb?” Yes, they still hadn’t cooked their Christmas supper, which was marinading in the fridge. <3>
————————————————————————————————————————————
iShatteredSanity: -After hearing Dixie telling him that Inga, Sven, Kraus, Nikolas and Maggie were already in Japan along with Nanna Noonie, he did not know if he should feel happy or sad for them. He was aware of what had happened in Spain with poor Antonio. But oh well, that was life. Demetrios chuckled softly and ran his hands down on Dixie’s sides before they rested on her stomach, pulling her gently closer to him and kissing the back of her neck.- “Well, they will have some extraordinary time, that’s for sure. As for Switzerland, it can wait after I will enjoy your lamb.” –He said and winked playfully as he tapped his fingers gently on her stomach.- “So, shall we? We do have some suitcases to pack after lunch.”
———————————————————————————————————————————-
CharlotteCarrendar: The lamb?…The lamb! Yes, that meat was sure to be so well marinated, it would probably fall apart when cooked. “That’s right, I am not wearing this apron for show. Come on!”- with that, she took Demetrios’s hand and led him to the kitchen, only letting go, to take the meat out of the fridge, and then start fussing, looking for alfoil and getting the griller pulled out. “So..I think the recipe says…I have to grill the meat.” Dixie said hopefully. She was digging about in drawers, and cupboards, making a din, clattering pans, and basically looking busy, but having no idea what she was really doing. <3>
———————————————————————————————————————————
iShatteredSanity: -It was a combination of joy, excitement, comedy and a TV cooking show. Dixie was trying to figure out how to cook the meat. But Demetrios did not mind it at all. He adored spending such moments with Dixie. Watching her panicking like a chicken without a head, he could not help himself but laugh before he moved to her place and placing his right hand on her back.- “Shhh… Relax. Let’s do this together.” –Demetrios leaned over the stove and smelled the marinated meat.- “Well, this is amazing. It smells so damn good. Now, let’s peel some potatoes, chop some onions, some garlic and pepper.” –Demetrios said and patted Dixie’s back softly with a smile on his face.-
———————————————————————————————————————————
CharlotteCarrendar: – This was going to be a first. Because really when you think about it, the only time Dixie and Demetrios actually did an activity together, it was usually sex. This whole cooking thing, was a new experience, and she was definitely a virgin, when it came to greek cuisine. “Potatoes….I can so do that.”- finding a peeler, she got out a bag of potatoes and washed them in the sink, as she started to peel them. Having her tongue poking out the side of her mouth, in an odd way, she peeled at the speed of someone that had never done it before. Was Dixie really that bad at cooking? You learn something new each day. In fact, it’s a miracle that the meat was marinated. Dixie hummed Jingle Bells, to herself as the peelings landed in the sink. <3>
———————————————————————————————————————————-
iShatteredSanity: -Well, it was actually true. The only activities that Dixie and Demetrios did together was to eat the delivery food and have sex, this whole cooking thing was something new, but of course welcomed. Smiling at Dixie as she began to peel the potatoes, Demetrios grabbed a knife and began chopping down the onions in pig pieces.- “The trick is to make the pieces quite big. Onion is very sweet and it adds an amazing flavour to the food.” –He said and once he was finished with the onions, he grabbed some garlic and chopped that as well.- “Garlic. While some people do not like it due to the smell, it is actually very good for your health. It drops your blood pressure, and it also helps during summer with all the mosquitoes at nights.” –Demetrios said again and laughed softly. Then he began chopping the green peppers in small pieces.- “Pepper is also good. While it is a bit hard to chew when it is raw, it is very soft and sweet when cooked.” –He said again and put everything in a griddle before pouring some olive oil, oregano, salt, pepper, sweet paprika and then the lamb. Once the lamb was inside the griddle, he rolled it on the mixture of spices and oil.- “This way it will roast better in the oven.” –He said and filled a glass with some white wine.- “But this can wait. Here, let me help you.” –He said and took some of the peeled potatoes, cutting them in quarters and then tossing them in the griddle.-
——————————————————————————————————————————–
CharlotteCarrendar:- Dixie gladly stepped to the side, to allow Demetrios a chance to grab some potatoes, and start to chop them up, ready to toss them into the griddle. “I wondered what that was.” She said, speaking of the griddle. “All mixed in. OH so then you have it with the souvlaki, now I get it.” – With all the ingredients, in the griddle, she opened the oven, and placed it on a rack, before closing the door again, and setting the timer. “Now all we have to do is…..wait.”- Dixie leaned back against the kitchenette counter and stared at the oven. Was she going to wait in the kitchen the whole time? Or did Dem have other ideas? They could pack. <3>
———————————————————————————————————————————
iShatteredSanity: -Demetrios nodded at Dixie.- “Yes, this is one of its uses. You can also make cakes in that.” –He said and planted a soft kiss on Dixie’s cheek. Then he washed his hands and looked at Dixie in her apron, tilting his head slightly to the right.- “You know, that apron is lucky. It looks beautiful only because you are wearing that.” –Demetrios said and winked as he moved closer to Dixie, brushing her hair softly before he leaned closer to her, pressing his lips against her own for a moment.- “Well, we do have some time before the meat is ready.” –He said and chuckled in a heavy tone while winking. Meanwhile his hands had began travelling on her back, reaching the knot that held the apron on her and untying it.-
————————————————————————————————————————————
CharlotteCarrendar: – Slowly, the tie to her apron was being pulled off, and Dixie pouted. “But if you take off my apron, I’m going to get all dirty.”- she teased, biting her bottom lip, as his eyes said, what he didn’t need to express verbally. “So…we’re not going to pack?” Dixie could feel his hands wandering across her back, and leaned forward, brushing her chest against him. “I think you’re hungry for something else.”- A wink and a smile, she felt the apron slip to the ground at her feet. <3>
———————————————————————————————————————————
CharlotteCarrendar; – The closeness shared, the two enveloped in their loving embrace, each having eyes only for the other. It did not matter that they were not seen as married in the eyes of God, and before witnesses, for their union was one that had been blessed, by the uniting of their troubled souls. For now joined as one, if any dared to try and break them apart, they would find themselves fighting against a power that is not even spoken of.

While some people do not like it due to the smell, it is actually very good for your health. It drops your blood pressure, and it also helps during summer with all the mosquitoes at nights.” –Demetrios said again and laughed softly. Then he began chopping the green peppers in small pieces.- “Pepper is also good. While it is a bit hard to chew when it is raw, it is very soft and sweet when cooked.” –He said again and put everything in a griddle before pouring some olive oil, oregano, salt, pepper, sweet paprika and then the lamb. Once the lamb was inside the griddle, he rolled it on the mixture of spices and oil.- “This way it will roast better in the oven.” –He said and filled a glass with some white wine.- “But this can wait. Here, let me help you.” –He said and took some of the peeled potatoes, cutting them in quarters and then tossing them in the griddle.-

CharlotteCarrendar:- Dixie gladly stepped to the side, to allow Demetrios a chance to grab some potatoes, and start to chop them up, ready to toss them into the griddle. “I wondered what that was.” She said, speaking of the griddle. “All mixed in. OH so then you have it with the souvlaki, now I get it.” – With all the ingredients, in the griddle, she opened the oven, and placed it on a rack, before closing the door again, and setting the timer. “Now all we have to do is…..wait.”- Dixie leaned back against the kitchenette counter and stared at the oven. Was she going to wait in the kitchen the whole time? Or did Dem have other ideas? They could pack. <3>

iShatteredSanity: -Demetrios nodded at Dixie.- “Yes, this is one of its uses. You can also make cakes in that.” –He said and planted a soft kiss on Dixie’s cheek. Then he washed his hands and looked at Dixie in her apron, tilting his head slightly to the right.- “You know, that apron is lucky. It looks beautiful only because you are wearing that.” –Demetrios said and winked as he moved closer to Dixie, brushing her hair softly before he leaned closer to her, pressing his lips against her own for a moment.- “Well, we do have some time before the meat is ready.” –He said and chuckled in a heavy tone while winking. Meanwhile his hands had began travelling on her back, reaching the knot that held the apron on her and untying it.-

CharlotteCarrendar: – Slowly, the tie to her apron was being pulled off, and Dixie pouted. “But if you take off my apron, I’m going to get all dirty.”- she teased, biting her bottom lip, as his eyes said, what he didn’t need to express verbally. “So…we’re not going to pack?” Dixie could feel his hands wandering across her back, and leaned forward, brushing her chest against him. “I think you’re hungry for something else.”- A wink and a smile, she felt the apron slip to the ground at her feet. <3>
