Re: ...like a chapter in a book, waiting to be written.
"No, your majesty," Thea smiled knowingly. "I did not say that." She helped Eva out of the tub and pulled the stopper on the drain, letting the water drain. If only the queen's problems could work the same way, she thought sadly.
"You are most welcome," she said. It was the most she could do. She bowed her head in thanks to the compliment Eva paid and she smiled. "I think that would be a good idea." Whatever was on Eva's mind needed to be lifted, no matter what the subject matter entailed. As she heard Troy say once 'If mamma ain't happy, no one is.' Thea felt that was a fairly true statement in this case, even if the language was slightly confusing.
Thea escorted Eva back to her room and ushered her towards the bed. She then moved to grab undergarments and looked for a suitable (and comfortable) outfit for the queen to wear. The blond helped the darker woman into her clothing and moved to get her settled back onto the bed. "What is troubling you, your majesty?"
