A/N If you don’t like slason’ton’t read this.
By the time Andromache awoke, Hector was up and dressed, partly. She saw him silhouetted at the window against the pale dawn sky. He held their son in his arms and was gently rocking him. She got up and went over to him. She carefully took their sleeping son and laid him back in his cradle. Then she went back to her husband. She wrapped her arms around his waist and put her hands on his bare chest. As she rested her head on his shoulder, he put han hands on her arms.
"What is bothering you, my love?" she asked quietly. Hector didn't answer. He knew that he couldn't truly tell her that he was haunted by memories of a night spent with Achilles.
"Is it the fact that Paris has pledged to fight Menelaus today?" Hector seized upon this excuse.
"Yes, it is. How could he do that?" he said to her, while he thought to himself, How could I have done that?
"He is defending Helen and his honor. I'm sure he thinks that he is doing the right thing."
"I'm sure he does. But I don't want to lose my brother."
Andromache turned Hector to face her. don don't want you to go."
Hector sighed. "We've been over this. It is Paris fighting today, not I."
"Yes, but Agamemnon did not come for Helen. He came for Troy. If Paris succeeds in killing Menelaus, Agamemnon will still fight us."
Hector went over and sat on the edge of the bed. "I know. I know it and I can't stop it."
Andromache sat down next to him. "Hector, just remember that I love you." She put her hand on his face and turned his head at look at her.
As Hector leaned in toward her he whispered, "I love you too." As his lips touched hers, she twined her fingers in his hair, and he pulled her down onto the bed.
A/N Sorry this was such a tiny chapter. It's just transition. But, i posted two in one day.
