The kids were out doing whatever it was they were doing. Arella was...well, since Gaara didn't exactly know what type of girlie things she had gotten through to, he assumed that. Rain was out in the woods. That meant only one thing;
He could finally spend some long needed time with his wife.
Two black candles, scented like patchouli, were lit. The tiny flames danced on the tips like they were excited Raven would walk in. Along with the earthy smells of the candles came the earthy smells of the fortune teller eyeing a crock pot nervously. Korma was one of the few curries he had learned to cook while travelling. Germany overpriced several necessary ingredients, but some people had been kind enough to offer alternatives. The only thing in the meal completed was the arrangement of fruit on the table.
Between flipping naan and eyeing the pot, Gaara was a nervous wreck. He wiped his scar with one hand to mop away any sweat, letting out a sigh,

Raven walked through the door of there home, her violet eyes grimaced as she drained water from her hair "still can't believe toothless hates me still. Damn my m.." She was cut off blinking lightly when she saw the candles, smelled the smells, and saw Gaara. " Gaara..." was all she could say. She was soaked from falling in the Dragon bath. She now knew that Toothless hated baths.As much as he hated her it seemed!

The strong smell of hay and acrid soap disrupted the middle eastern scents flowing through the room. Gaara had turned..and nearly dropped a piece of naan on the floor. The Sands caught it to place it back on the plate. He began brushing it off to get any of the grains, as he knew sand tasted terrible and did not want to feed his wife that, asking, "Trying to bathe Toothless again?"

Raven nodded"With Belle being pregnat , some-one has too.''she'd smile at him as she tinted her cheeks a soft pink her eyes watching him."Every-thing ok? You seem nervous..?"she'd wonder lightly looking at him gently "What's all this for ?'she'd ask, still blushing, asking a million questions now"Maybe I should change before I ask anything..''she'd rub the back of her neck.

"You know, she's about to give birth to that baby soon," Gaara reassured her. "You're being a good friend." He grabbed a blanket to wrap around his besodden love. "As for this," he gestured to the spread, "with the kids out, I figured it'd be nice for us to have dinner. You didn't seem like the schnitzel-potato type, so I decided to bring a bit fo my culture here."
Not that the culture wasn't all through their house with the cobalt scarves adorned with golden swirls looking uncannily like sand.

Raven smiled snuggling into her blanket nodding."That is ..that sounds lovely.''she'd state lightly watching Gaara with a smile on her face , her eyes glittering with joy. " So what's for dinner, than?' she'd eye the spread , she never had it before so she doesn't know what it 's called.her eyes watching him still as they did , her eyes blinked a few times in waiting for his response.

"It's a surprise." Gaara answered. He sat her down like any gentleman would sit down a lady. "I don't think you had exotic herbs in Azarath, so...you may be a little surprised." He grabbed the crock pot and set it down, opening the pot to reveal the rich, creamy spiced sauce with chunks of meat being marinated within. Basmati rice steamed in another bowl.
"Behold. Korma, one of the best dishes in the Middle East." Gaara popped a bottle. "Wine?"

Raven blinked lightly blushing, nodding as she shook her head no."Your right on that, we haven't got exotic herbs, those who do- are well, royals.''she'd state gently, rubbing her neck gently.nodding at the wine."Yes please.''she'd smile lightly twoards her husband.her nose flared with the smells, her eyes widening as it smelt great! she couldn't wait."Gaara it smells fantastic.''

Gaara's smile widened at his wife's reaction. Oh, to be eating like Azarathian royalty. But then again, in this world, Middle Eastern spices, depending on your location, were costly as well. Not as terrible as buying a yacht or a mansion, but the prices compared to a seasoning like pepper surprised him. He ladled a spoonful of the golden-brown sauced dish over a small bed of basmati race, the scents of cinnamon, cumin, turmeric, coriander and bay leaf wafting from within. "Careful," he warned, "it can be a little spicy."

Raven smiled gently as she watched him."All-though changing sounds really good right now, as I am still wet...''she'd smile eyeing the food."I'm hungry too .''she'd speak softly"Azarath metrion zinthos.'' a gust of wind would swoop around her body and dry her off quickly, her suit stopped dripping."Magic.. its a good thing some-times.''she'd smile. her hair falling in her face as she smiled."Lets eat.''

"Raven. You should know any know that magic, for the most part, is good for most things." The only downside? Well, there were moments where one could get too reliant on magic. And even if Raven soaking wet, Gaara still found her beautiful.

Raven turns a soft pink due too her embarrassment of his comment, nodding gently pushing her hair behind her ears ; as she did she'd turn back to face the food."So ; ''she paused realizing they haddn't been together-alone- since the twins were born. she'd turn pink at the thought as she rubbed her neck.

"...Relax." What was with her all the sudden? As of lately, she seemed one edge and was retreated to her shell more often than usual. All Gaara wanted to do was see how she was faring without the interruption of children. "Can't we...talk about things other than our kids? Its just us tonight." He carefully took her hand, bringing it to his lips. The exotic smell of black orchid rolled off her wrist, and he pecked it; not just for courtesy, but to take in the smell he hardly got to take advantage of anymore.

Raven nodded and turned around looking him in the eyes gently as she smiled."We can.''she'd watch him take her hand , her heart pounding once more as she smiled still; She'd reach up and lightly brush his hair with her hand gently feeling his face againt's her palm...if he allowed her to do so after all.his smell intoxicating her if anything , it made her blush more too.

Raven's hand fell over Gaara's. Saying nothing, he allowed her to touch him. The Sands made no objection to the single finger brushing against him; they had given up on defending Gaara a long time ago when he willed them to stand down to Raven. He took her palm and kissed it. "How about you tell me how your day has gone?" The suggestion was minimal, but it would hold back the urge to get intimate on the table.
