Eleanor appeared in the middle of her and Pluto's room she had cleaned the boys entire apartment and she decided that she should leave the boys alone they liked their own space. Ellie was at a loss about what to do it had been so long since she had nothing to do she didn't know what to do with herself. She decided that she was going to cook a meal for Pluto and her to enjoy, it had been too long since they had time to themselves and it would be a prefect way to reconnect now that the boys were out of the house. 

Eleanor put on some loud music before getting down to cooking she decided to cook squid strips marinated in spices for entree for main she decided on pan seared lemon marinated Salmon with potato purée and corn and a lush chocolate moose for desert. She happily started to cook singing along to the songs and dancing around feeling young again.

Pluto appeared in the kitchen and smiled as he watched her from the shadows for a moment. As much as he was already missing the twins being in their home he was also welcoming the space it would give him and his wife. They had had so little time alone for so long that he was glad to have that chance again. He stepped out of the shadows again as she started dancing and pulled her into his arms. "You know you really need to let the boys learn how to do their own cleaning", he said before kissing her softly and helping her with what she was cooking.

"But, if I let the boys learn how to clean I'll have nothing to do, I'm so bored." She whined, with a pout even with all her godly duties she still had too much time on her hands. She shooed him away. "Go set the table, I've got this under control." She tells him with a smile, glad that he wanted to help but she had her system worked out and he was just interrupting it. "Shoo." She says pushing him gently away from the kitchen. She finished the starter and the moose was in the fridge and the salmon was in the oven doing the last little bit of cooking so she started plating up the starters while she waited for him to do the table.

Pluto laughed softly, "Well I suppose we can't have that though I can think of something else that might keep you busy", he replied, not sure if he should suggest it, still he missed having kids around. He raised his hands in surrender then saluted her, "Yes ma'am." A smirk crossed his face as he moved away and set the table with a flick of his fingers. He was cheating he knew and Eleanor was the only one who would ever call him on it or think to boss him around unless he counted his brothers who had left him in this hell of a place.

Ellie decided to ignore his cheating for this once, since she had finished plating up the entree and she didn't really want the salmon to overcook. "Ohh really what do you have in mind?" She asked raising an eyebrow at him with a smile, wondering what he was thinking about. She shook her head walking over to him she kissed him softly on the lips. "Just this once." She said meaning about the table the next time they had dinner he would have to set it up the proper way. "Let's eat." She says placing the two plates on the table before taking her seat gesturing for him to join her.

Pluto chuckled, "Do you really need to ask?", he teased. He smirked slightly at her as she scolded him. No one else would ever get away with it but he loved Eleanor and he could never hurt her. "Of course my dear", he replied. They both knew he was unlikely to set the table in any other way. He was a god and he would use that to his advantage at every point that he got. Especially if it was in defense of her. He took his seat at the table after she took hers and tucked into the salmon. "On what I was thinking before...well...the place is quiet without the boys around", he said between bites.

Eleanor smiled at him return she knew that he would always set the table like that but she didn't mind she loved him and all his quirks. "It is, too quite." She said with a sad look she still wasn't happy that her boy's had left but she knew that there was nothing that she could do about it and it was better to let them go then keep them here and have them hate them. "What about a holiday? Do you think that we could swing it?" She asked she hoped that they could she wanted to get away for a but just the two of them even if Pluto had to disappear and come back she wanted to go away with him because when he was bad he would be all hers.

Before the boys, Pluto hadn't had the experience of living with any of his children. He hadn't realised how used to the noise he had gotten until it was gone. "I miss all the noise too", he replied truthfully. He thought for a moment about taking a holiday. He was sure Hades could cover for him but he would still have things he had to do some of the time, "I can't promise that I will be able to be there all the time as it will be unfair for me to ask Hades to do all my job as well as his own but I think I could manage to be there for most of it", he replied with a smile. He wanted to be able to give her more time then that but he hoped it would be enough.

"Most of it is fine even just half of it I don't want to stress Iian out by having Hades away more I know he loves sharing his pregnancy with Hades. Like how I like sharing my pregnancy with you." Eleanor says, she really had no problem if he was away some of the time that they were on holiday she knew how hard it was for him to get away and even being there for a little time with him would make her happy. Not to mention being around him no stop would probably drive her mad if she was honest. "I just want to spend a little time away from here with you and so long as I have some nice scenery to look at and a place to shop I'll be fine."

Pluto smiled, "And I know that Hades enjoys it as much as I do." Pluto had been lucky to be able to help Eleanor out through her pregnancy with the boys but before that he had never really been given the chance to before that. It was nice to be able to be involved though he knew he still had a job that had to be done. "We can make sure that you have that", he replied with a smile. He wished he would be able to spend more then half the time with her but she was right that he should put every on Hades, even for a week or too.

"I'm sure he does." Eleanor said, thinking about the last time she saw Hades who was all smiles about Iian being pregnant. She had always found Hades a little dower but watching Hades and Iian together made her realise that Hades was just like Pluto who didn't show how much he loved others to the world but does to the person he loves. "That's good, I'll be fine if that's there, I don't want to over stress Iian and Hades even if I want a holiday with you I don't want to hurt Iian and Hades in the process because they are some of my only friends."
