Two presents appeared, one for Gershom and one for Daithi. Gershom's was just some books, as well as some of his favourite sweets. Daithi's was just a box of condoms and a bottle of his favourite drink.

The gifts appeared while the two males were in the library, discussing matters away from Gershom’s children.  The gifts appeared and Gershom rolled his eyes.  For being a grouchy woman as of late, she still had Christmas cheer.

“Aam gonnae out an’ havin’ some fun soon,” Daithi stated.  Gershom gave him a look.

“Don’t bloody well bring any of ‘em back here.”

They all had their work, their missions and duties. Even if he was gone for long periods she would keep a close eye on him again, she had lost him once when she was made to break her relations with him, not this time. Wadjet's touch returned to his cheek, her expression softened. He made her better, at least it was her opinion.

Her free hand reached out as she brushed her fingers against his cheek affectionately, only to pull back as soon as her fingers had touched skin. "I am glad I got to see you again."

Gershom made no indication of any form of dislike to her touch.  He actually seemed to enjoy it, but could only be seen in those blue eyes.

“I feel the same,” Gershom informed her quietly.  He had work to do, yes, but he wouldn’t neglect her.

Wadjet let out a delighted sound of happiness as she was spun, slowing her pace as she moved to entwine her fingers between his. Her dark browns focused upon him, stepping closer to him once more. "Does that mean I have all your attention?"

Gershom watched her, pleased that she was happy.  He gave her hand a squeeze, watching her move closer to him.  He gave her a half smile and a nod.  ”Yes, all of my attention,” he told her.

"You have?" Wadjet's interest picked up after he admitted he had worn the attire of pirates. "Oh so you do have a sense of humour?" She teased. At least she didn't have to worry about him disappearing or ushering her off tonight, that was something that made her glad.

“I can when I want to,” Gershom told her.  ”Just not when Daithi is around or when I’ve got a case on my mind.”  He spun her around, looking at her.  ”And I just wrapped up a case yesterday, so no distractions.”

Her head seemed to raise a little, she seemed to perk up more as she heard him chuckle. "Well I think you could have made pirate clothes very dashing," She told him, despite hearing his serious tone. "Oh really? Sounds like something that would go nicely with some herbs and that." She couldn't help but laugh. "I'm sorry, that was cruel."

“Oh, worn clothes like that before,” he told her.  ”Never again.  I hate the Caribbean.  Mediterranean is preferred.”  He raised his brows and rolled his eyes.  ”I would have trained the parrot to swoop at his head whenever he walked into the room and say rude things about him.  That would be hilarious.”

Wadjet allowed him to lead the dance, her smile never once fading. "Oh, is that the only reason?" She asked him. Her took a step closer to him, moving to rest her hands upon his shoulders. "I worked hard to get that back."
​

Gershom gave a chuckle at that, wrapping his arms around her waist.

“I know,” he said.  ”And I am grateful for it.  I am.  And Daithi can now stop making pirate jokes at me.”  His face turned serious.  ”He tried to buy me a parrot.”

He surprised her, the feeling of his hand upon her waist, the calm look within his eyes. It had been ages since she had seen this side of him, she couldn't help but feel her smile grow. "Okay, but only because you asked." She told him, reaching up a hand and brushing back some of his hair. "It's nice to see those lovely blues again."
​

He began to follow the beat of the music, keeping in perfect step.  His eyes stayed on her face, never once looking away.  He gave a shrug.

“It’s nice not to have a blind spot,” he stated.  ”Makes dancing a lot easier.”

She glanced towards Gershom as he spoke, her head tilted to the side. Maybe she had pushed too hard for him to come with her, but she wanted to have a night which was like those nights in the past, dancing and having fun. "We don't have to dance if you don't want to." She told him.

Gershom pulled her closer to him, resting on hand on her waist.  Ice blue eyes looked at her with a calmness to them.

“Well, I want to,” he informed her, pulling her just a touch closer.

The moment they arrived the smile never left the goddess's face, the happiness was radiating from her. To actually be away from all the drama, to be able to just enjoy things and spend time with someone she cared for a great deal. Her hand kept a hold of his, staying nearby to the dark haired former-angel of death.

Gershom had gone.  He was used to these sort of things.  He had simply worn a tuxedo and a mask, saying he was James Bond.  Clever and lazy all at once.  He watched as the Egyptian goddess just seemed to relieved as they were in the ballroom.  Like weight had been lifted from her shoulders.  He gave her a slight smile.

“I suppose now is the time to dance, right?” He suggested.
