Hermes turn! I DO NOT OWN ANY SONG IN ANY CHAPTER
Hermes was sitting in Texas Roadhouse when he heard a song. One that reminded him of May, who had been treating so unfairly because of a mistake he had made. He should have never let her do what she did.
She's a yellow pair of running shoes
A holey pair of jeans
She looks great in cheap sunglasses
She looks great in anything
She's I want a piece of chocolate
Take me to a movie
She's I can't find a thing to wear
Now and then she's moody
He remembered when she would get mad, how she would beat the crap outta him. He shuddered and took a shaky breath. She was always so wonderful, so beautiful, so flawless in his eyes. He had never felt that way toward anyone before. He would say she was prettier then Aphrodite, but he knew the consequences that would've happened if he did that. So he never said that out loud.
She's a Saturn with a sunroof
With her brown hair a-blowing
She's a soft place to land
And a good feeling knowing
She's a warm conversation
That I wouldn't miss for nothing
She's a fighter when she's mad
And she's a lover when she's loving
He remembered laying beside her in bed, a wide smile on their faces. He remember her laying her head on his chest on nights when she was upset or just in a loving mood, the way her silky hair would tickle his face, and how she would smile and yell at him when he accidentally sneezed on her.
And she's everything I ever wanted
And everything I need
I talk about her, I go on and on and on
'Cause she's everything to me
The day she had come to him and told him that she was expecting a baby, the very way his heart had skipped a beat and fluttered away to dance with the stars, how he had sat there with her as they both cried tears of joy.
She's a Saturday out on the town
And a church girl on Sunday
She's a cross around her neck
And a cuss word 'cause its Monday
She's a bubble bath and candles
Baby come and kiss me
She's a one glass of wine
And she's feeling kinda tipsy
One the nights when they would stay up late and share a bottle of wine, how she would make more jokes, laugh louder, smile more, and express herself would still bring a smile to his face.
She's the giver I wish I could be
And the stealer of the covers
She's a picture in my wallet
Of my unborn children's mother
She's the hand that I'm holding
When I'm on my knees and praying
She's the answer to my prayer
And she's the song that I'm playing
Hermes felt tears well up in his eyes as he thought about her, and how much he had loved her.
And she's everything I ever wanted
And everything I need
I talk about her, I go on and on and on
'Cause she's everything to me
She was –no, IS- everything to him. Nothing would make him think differently, and for the rest of his immortality, he would always remember her.
She's the voice I love to hear
Someday when I'm ninety
She's that wooden rocking chair
I want rocking right beside me
Everyday that passes
I only love her more
Yeah, she's the one
That I'd lay down my own life for
He had fought against his brother Apollo after the job incident. Apollo had declared that the only way they could keep her from hurting someone was to kill her, but that only made Hermes rage so dangerous, not even Zeus dared to speak out against the messenger. Hermes refused to have anymore harm placed on her.
And she's everything I ever wanted
And everything I need
She's everything to me
Yeah she's everything to me
Sense then, no one dared to say anything bad about May around him, for fear of triggering his anger, and all of Olympus knew he had a deadly rage that would make Kronos going running to Tartarus and hide like a mouse.
Everything I ever wanted
And everything I need
She's everything to me
By the time the song ended, he had broken into tears. He couldn't believe how much it hurt him to think about her. After telling her about Luke's death, and watching her complete break down and hearing her screams and calling out for her poor little boy, he had been unable to see her again, because he hated seeing her in that pain, in that distress. He wiped the tears from his eyes, and without finishing the meal he had ordered, left 100 bucks on the table and left.
He went strait for May's house, and once he entered, before she could say anything, he embraced her, not wanting to ever let her go.
"You are my only love…..never forget that." He whispered to her, hugging her closer.
