It has been about a week since the Trojan has ended and now Odysseus and his men are on the way back to Ithaca, where everyone on the ship has been longing to be for the past ten years.
While men were celebrating and drinking, Odysseus stayed out on the deck, having his arms crossed on the edge, watching the boat go through the water and how the waves gently crashed against the bottom of the boat. Odysseus was deep in thought before he felt a pair of strong arms wrap around his waist, he was about to put his hands on their hands thinking it was Polites, but when he glanced behind him and saw the tall figure he realised who it is... Eurylochus.
Odysseus is shocked since Eurylochus never showed affection towards anyone since he's always so hidden and stern but then Odysseus could smell the alcohol off of Eurylochus.
"...Mmm, Ctimene..I've missed youuuu."
Eurylochus drunkenly mumbles out as he buries his face into the crook of Odysseus' neck. Odysseus wasn't that shocked since when he and his sister got mixed up all the time when they were younger and this time is no different plus it totally not like Eurylochus had a crush on Odysseus when they were younger which is why he married Ctimene.. Totally not.
