To him the trip from the lake to the amusement park, to the grocery store and then finally to her home was all a blur of time for him. He was lost in his own mind at what had happened in such a short amount of time since he had been freed. All that time locked in prison and then found and released by this young woman. Who without thought to herself or caring for what his past was accepted the burden of keeping him out of the prison. And then it went even further than that. And he wasn't sure he could wrap his mind around that fact so soon.
She was very beautiful and had an air of strength about her. The first moments with her had made him feel like he had never felt before. Not since his time with his family before being....what he used to be and what he was now. He wanted to keep his alter life apart and away from her. It was obvious to him that both of them shared an attraction to each other. But he didn't know how far it went for her. But living with her was going to be interesting at any rate. Finally they arrived at the apartment in which she lived. His mind was reeling with the new knowledge of this time and the world. His magic having finally finished it's task. He held the bags for her while she opened the door, and of course he insisted she enter first. Old habits died hard, or not at all for him.

Artemis didnt know what the hell she was doing or thinking for that matter. Her goal was to make pictures and enjoy the day, instead she found a prison where a man was locked into. sure she wondered who was in it, and why he was in there, but if he wouldnt tell her, she had no right to ask.
unlocking the door went pretty easily, she didnt had to go to too much trouble. She grabbed a back to lighten Killian up and walked in grabbing the keys too fast for a normal human being with no skills. The young assassin quickly moved to the kitchen and placed the bag on the counter.
her eyes moved softly towards the fridge and opened it up so she could load it again, and so she placed everything on the right spot. Killian didnt belong here, she knew it as well as he did, but a big part of her said she shouldnt let him go, that would break her heart slowly and painfully.
Artemis grabbed a bag of candy Killian chose and a bowl and emptied the bag in the bowl placing it on the table in the living room once she got there. Glad being home she let herself fall on the sofa and think while Killian was doing his thing.

He watched her closely. There was more to her than one would notice normally. But he wasn't normal himself so he noticed these slight differences. He helped where he could, being he unpacked the bags and handed her things as she needed them. On a hunch though he decided to ask her the question that should have been asked when they met in the first place. " You have not asked about my past or why I was in that prison. Most would have asked that question of who and why? But why not you? Why risk taking in someone that you know nothing about? More so when you release them from a dimensional prison? "

Artemis peaceful thinking was disturbed by killians questions, a lot of them in one time that made her sit up and look at him with a soft and gentle smile and expression. Totally calmed down, Artemis thought of his question even though she knew the answer.
My father taught me never ask, just follow your heart. Even though his heart was made of stone. she spoke softly and got on her feet looking outside the window, not facing killian at all, that way she could answer him and not fall for his handsomeness once again.
This might sound like me being one of those ancient lonely women with forty cats. Not that i have forty cats. But yes, i had spend all time in America alone. No friends, just me trying to survive and get through the day. When i found your prison... and got you free, i found a reason not to be alone anymore.
Artemis sighed and turned to face him.
I believe that even your heart isnt pure evil killian, even when time has changed and you dont believe me, i do think that whatever evil man you are, you still have a golden spot in there. A villain so bad wouldnt care for me freeing him, he would kill me and move on. you made me have the greatest day in my life, and i am honored to meet you and have you here.
Artemis had spit it all out right there.

He watched her, listened to her carefully. He didn't want to hurt her or scare her off. But he did care for her even though he did not know that much about her. so he smiled and listened to her. Wise words from a cold man it seemed. with her back to him he sighed. Many did that when they were afraid of facing someone. But in this time it may mean other things as well. When she finished he smiled, walked up to her and placed his hands on her upper arms. He spoke softly but clearly. How she knew of his darkness was something to wonder about. But then again some people could sense such things in people.
" It is a welcome thing to know that you have sensed my darkness. That you respect much of a person and their past. Thank you for being honest. I do not believe you would ever be one of those old all along type of ladies with 40 cats as you put it. And I will always be grateful for what you have done for me. But know that there may be some part of me that is not tainted but that is because of you. I have long given up on the good of life. It was the reason I am what I am and why I came to be in that prison. " He slowly turned her to face him. His hands moving down her arms to take her hands into his. " As long as you are my anchor to this world there may yet be hope for this darkened soul. " He leaned in and placed a very soft kiss to her lips before pulling back and kissing her hands.
