Sorry this took such a long time to update. Trust me I have not abandoned it or am planning to. It's just there is this little pesky thing called life that got in the way of this being updated. Like mentioned last chapter I think or my profile. I'm a college/university student and have essays and stuff to do. So I thank you all for your patience.

I know this is short and I apologize but this is better than nothing I suppose. I hope you all enjoy it.

Comments and reviews are always nice. 8D

Apollo closed his eyes as he flew in his car doing his duty as the sun god. He spent quite a bit of time getting to know Hyacinth's reincarnation, Alexis Meyer. He learned that he grew up with a father who worked in a nine to five job and was nothing extremely special. Which still baffled Apollo as to why Aphrodite found the man attractive to begin with.

Sighing he glanced down and smirked seeing some of the other gods taking care of their daily business. It had been a while since he saw Alex. The boy had grown too. His body becoming exquisite, all lean lines and muscle. He shivered at the thought. Maybe he should pay a visit before the day was done? That sounded like a good idea. He grinned and set his car on autopilot, "You take care of everything here alright?" he patted the red vehicle and hoped out make his way to camp.

NNNNNNnnnnnnnnNNNNNNnnnnnnnnn

"Alright guys that's enough for tonight" Percy said as he waved for everyone's attention. Breathing deeply the girls and boys stopped their fighting and looked towards the son of Poseidon. "You guys are doing great. Keep up the good work. Couple of reminders this weekend there will be no sword fighting classes taught by me. And I do believe Kevin said he was taking a break this weekend as well" Percy announced referring to the current archery leader. "But ask him to get the final word on that."

He paused surveying the gathered warriors and then he smirked "And next week not sure what day but we'll have a capture the flag tournament. So be prepared. Any questions and requests?"

Nobody volunteered to say anything so he shrugged. "Alright so everyone's dismissed to do whatever they wish" he waved them off with his sword.

"Hey seaweed brain."

Percy smiled and turned to see his fiancée walking up to him. "Hey ready to go?" "Yeah just tied up all the lose ends on my project" She smiled and kissed his cheek lightly.

"I see, having a getaway just the two of you?" Apollo grinned as he walked up to them. "Gosh Apollo you have very bad timing" Percy mumbled looking over at the sun god. "Gosh so moody anyways just came to visit Alex. You wouldn't happen to know where he is?" "I just dismissed everyone so they're probably in their cabins hanging out or being cheeky somewhere in the forest" Percy grinned. "Just like the pair of you. Alright well I'll leave ya'll alone enjoy yourselves" Apollo snickered as he wondered away.

Percy and Annabeth both looked after the sun god and then looked at each other. "He's been hanging around more often lately" Annabeth pointed raising an eyebrow quizzically at Percy. "He has" Percy affirmed nodding but not saying more.

"Finally found you. You know you are one hard demi-god to find" Apollo said as he sat next to the teen. Alex glanced at Apollo and smiled throwing a stone in the water. "I just felt like being alone for a bit. It was really hot today" he grumbled a bit as he ran his hand through his dark hair. Apollo watched him for moment taking in the beauty radiating off the young man beside him. "Anyways you haven't been around this past week. Had a lot to do?" Alex asked looking at Apollo. "Mmm somewhat. We always have things to do you know?" "Yes I imagine driving an awesome sports car as you pull the sun is a lot of work" Alex snickered. "Hey I'll have you know I do way more than that" Apollo protested good naturedly as he shoved the young man slightly.

Alex laughed and pushed him away "Really…because I haven't heard of any plagues or some form of destruction going on in the world" "Tch… you are insulting a god Alex" Apollo poked the other. "Forgive me, I didn't mean to" Alex chuckled as try to dodge the other's finger. Apollo laughed as he attacked the other.

Alex gasped with a laugh and try to turn back over using as much strength as he could. Apollo let the mortal have a bit of control knowing there is no way, even for a demi-god, to beat a god. Alex grinned triumphantly as he held Apollo down "Do you yield?" "Of course I don't" Apollo smirked and flipped them over with ease, pinning the mortal to the ground again.

Alex blinked and stared up at Apollo. Something shifted Apollo could feel it but he didn't pull away. He looked directly into Alex's eyes and he fell. Alex returned the stare and slowly his hand reached up and caressed the features of the god before him. Apollo closed his eyes momentarily before opening them again and again being mesmerized by those eyes.

Both breathed in deeply as Apollo leaned down and connected their lips in a kiss. A surge of unknown feelings went through the both of them at the feel of the kiss. The sun god pulled away and stared at the other carefully. Taking in the other's expression and features. "You're truly something else Alex" he murmured softly. "Apollo…I…" Alex began but a finger on his lips stopped him mid speech. "Shhh… don't need to apologize" he explained "One more kiss before I have to leave?" the young man said nothing but leaned up brushing his lips against the god's once more enjoying the feeling it caused in the pit of his stomach. Apollo sighed softly responding to the kiss. A pull in his mind made it clear that he had to leave very soon.

Running his tongue over the younger man's lips he pulled away savoring the taste of those beautiful lips. "I have to go. I'll come back when I have time" He winked stealing a quick kiss before swiftly standing and walking away.

Luckily Alex remained laying on the grass and with eyes closed otherwise he would have been incinerated by Apollo's true form.

Experimentally he licked his lips and couldn't help the wave of lust that went through him at the lingering taste of the god. He breathed in deeply and felt himself blushing as he thought of what the simple kiss did to him and how much it affected him. He felt his face get extremely red as he realized what would happen if they had kissed even deeper. Shaking his head he slowly stood and looked to west where the sun was setting.

'Maybe he'll come tomorrow' he hoped as he began walking to his cabin so he could change and go to dinner with his half sisters. He smiled knowing where his sacrificed dinner would go to tonight.
