Athena sat on her throne, alone, isolated from the other deities on Mount Olympus. She was contemplating something with a deep look on her face. Her brows were knit together, a frown that made her lips look pouty. Her grey eyes were unfocussed on the porcelain floor below the light purple fabric that covered her throne. Her brown hair was placed in a formal bun to the left of her crown that let a cascade of softly curled locks flow down her back. She was supposed to be in the feast-room, enjoying herself, but she couldn't muster up the courage to face a certain person. A certain person who had surprised her and had left her confused. The goddess of wisdom confused?
The fair-haired voluptuous goddess approached her. A divine smile upon her lips she sat behind the thoughtful goddess and wrapped her arms around her waist. Athena smiled, confusion very evident yet unknown to the other goddess. She pretended not to notice the warmth of the other deity behind her and continued her conversation with Hephaestus about armour she wanted made.
After he left, Athena approached the other goddess.
"What's up with you? Need more love advice?" she asked, sardonically.
The smile on the other goddess's turned sly and she shook her head, the golden curls prancing around her face. "No..." her voice was dark, almost husky. "Only this," she said, taking Athena's left hand with her right one. She leaned forward and gave her a sensual kiss. Athena was shocked and her eyes widened slightly. After the kiss, the goddess gave a hearty giggle and departed from the courtyard.
"Aphrodite?" Athena said to no one. The light from Apollo's chariot cascaded into the narrow courtyard, illuminating the chaise she sat on. Shaking her head, the goddess left the courtyard to get ready for the festival of the homecoming of lost Persephone.
Taking her head off her hand, Athena sighed and stood up from her throne. She adjusted her chiton as she walked out of the throne room and into a hallway that lead to the adjoining feast room. Athena came to her senses about Aphrodite and had decided to forget the incident.
