Chapter 3:Fever Frenzy
I was bored. Like,really bored. I would rather fight a hydra than stay in bed. Cursing I shuffled to my bathroom and got dressed. I was feeling seriously sick,and didn't have an appetite,which wasn't like me at all,but then I slowly shuffled back to bed and collapsed,clutching my head feverishly. I heard a knockout my door,and I called out,"Enter."
I sat upright as I saw my dad Poseidon walk in,looking at me with a warm smile. I caught the relaxing smell of salt water and jasmine,the smell that always lives in the Poseidon cabin back at camp. I always joked around saying that the smell hid the stink from Percy's underwear drawer.
"Hi dad." I muttered,smiling wearily. He nodded back and sat next to me,looking down at me with worry.
"Are you okay dear?"
I've never considered myself as 'Daddy's little girl',considering that I rarely see him,and the fact that he's a God. It gets a little odd,but hey,at least I have a dad.
"A bit okay,though I still feel like I'm about to throw up." I admitted. He put his hand on my shoulder.
"I'll call Apollo as soon as possible. His chambers are right next to yours,luckily."
"Oh." I nodded,trying to act casual. Great. His room was right next to mine. What's next? My walk-through closet is attached to his bathroom? Just saying.
"Do you need anything to eat?"
"Uh,no. I don't really have an appetite."
He nodded and stood up,and within seconds he dissolved in a breeze of salt water and jasmine. I groaned and fell backwards again. How can a single fever do this to my body? Maybe it's all the power of the gods that's seriously getting to me. Or...it could be Apollo...his hotness was seriously getting me.
Okay,I did not say that. He is not hot.
Yeah,he's sexy.
Shut up me.
Fine,maybe he is kind of drop dead sexy,but that's it. He has the looks,but that it. There's nothing else that's between us,and nothing like that will ever happen. The whole idea is laughable. The door opened,and I looked up to see him walk inside,and my heart skipped. (Much to my annoyance)
"Miss me?"
"No,it was much better without you nagging me."
Okay,I was lying. Perhaps he knew it,because he smirked "Dot lie to the Truth God,Sunshine. And you moved." He added,frowning. I rolled my eyes.
"Seriously? I went to use the bathroom,Truth God. The bathroom." I huffed. He laughed,throwing his hands up.
"Okay,okay. Now get back in the same position again."
"What do you want me to do,a drill surgery? And if you say any flirty perv comment I will kick your balls." I warned. Without another word,he walked up to me and crossed his arms.
"I better start wearing gear from now on. But before that-" he suddenly scooped me up in his arms,bridal style. One arm was put under my knees,and the other one held my shoulders firmly. I yelped and clutched his shoulders,but it wasn't like he was about to let go. I could feel his muscles on my side,and couldn't help but stare into his eyes. I was like a feather to him,light and soft. I couldn't stop staring; he was unbelievably attractive. I was actually upset when he put me down on my pillows again. I was missing his touch already. Weird.
"You didn't have to do that." I said,recovering fast. He smirked.
"I know you liked that."
"I did not!"
"Did too."
"Did not."
"Did too."
"Did too."
"Did not."
"Did too."
"Did not."
"Did too."
"Did too."
"Did not."
"Did too."
"Did-"
Again,he drew closer to me,hands on my waist. The more he got closer to me,the more his power was blanketing me. I was unable to escape it,unable to escape his seductiveness. My heart was thumping fast as his lips grazed over mine. I so badly wanted to grab and pull his lips over mine completely. I blinked,and he chuckled.
"I win."
"I will get you for that Sunboy."
"But till then,you're staying where I can see you." He grinned. I rolled my eyes and crossed my arms,looking in another direction.
"So am I allowed to breath?"
"In my mouth."
"Ew!"
He laughed again,and I resisted the urge to smile. I liked the way he laughed. His pearly white teeth caught the beams of sunlight from the window,lighting up,his jawline looking sharper than ever-Stop it Penny,stop it.
"Alright love,just admit it. You want to breath in my mouth."
"Ew!"
"Fine,but you can't hide it from me forever."
"Yes I can,because it's not even true."
Well,no I can't,because it is true.
"Uh huh. Now go to sleep."
"I'm not sleepy."
He suddenly snapped his fingers,and I felt waves of drowsiness wash upon me,my vision darkening. I fell backwards on my soft pillow,and I heard his voice in my ears;
"I think you are."
.
My eyes slowly fluttered open. I was in total darkness,moonlight washing over the curtains. How long had I slept? What time was it? Recalling how I had fallen asleep,I silently thanks and cursed Apollo for giving me an early sleep. I was about to close my eyes and sleep again,but my nerves were upright. Something was wrong. It could've been just my reflexes...but...
Heart pounding,I turned on my other side and suddenly met with a pair of red glowing eyes,and I screamed as a rough hand clapped on my mouth.
