My day could have gone better.
Uncle Hades tried to set me on fire. Literally. His palace was bleak and muggy, skulls and bones piled up against the walls. I had no idea how Persephone dealt with this, it was absolutely frightening. I couldn't let him see it so I placed a mask over my face. It didn't end well. He took me down to a room where an eternal flame sparked in the middle.
"Come here child." He pulled me closer to the flame to the point my clothes began to fume.
He took my hand and placed it a centimeter away from the fire before I pulled back. This man was crazy!
"Come on! You won't get hurt!"
"That's easy for you to say! I'm not the one that's done this a million times." He sighed heavily before placing his hand in the fire.
"See? No marks. Now you try."
"Hell no!" He slipped his hands around my wrist and started dragging me to the fire with me kicking and yelling. He finally gave up and backed to a wall.
"You are irrevocably ignorant." I smiled at his compliment before being rushed away by one of his servants to a carriage. It was time for me to go home.
A golden carriage pulled by silver horses awaited me and I couldn't resist the cushion of the seat. I stepped inside and placed my chin on the rim and closed my eyes for several minutes before arriving the grand hall of Olympus. It was kind of annoying to be accompanied by maids to a room. I tried my best to avoid them. I jumped out and ran straight to my room, hoping to not bump into anyone in the hall. I did not want anyone to catch me in my scorched clothes. I made it to my door and closed it softly before running to my closet.
I grabbed a striped camisole from Hollister and light blue shorts. An odor of ash filled my nose so I decided to take a shower along with changing. I snatched undergarments and went into the bathroom, straight to the shower instead of the claw foot tub. I flipped the switch and stepped into the warm water only taking a quick ten minute bath and stepping out. I pulled the clothes on and stepped out of my room, only to run into Apollo.
"Whoa there!" He rubbed his chest from the impact.
"Sorry!" I started to rub his chest feverishly, probably making the situation even worse. He started to laugh, a heavenly sound that would make girls weak.
"You doing anything?" His voice had a pinch of sadness in it.
"Not really. I was just going to roam around." He grinned widely and I knew he was up to something.
"How about we do a little competition? We do have a lot to catch up on and I would love to hear the voice I gave you." I stared at him blankly before finally giving in. We walked to his room which he exaggerated having the best surround system. I have never been in any of their room's except Dionysus. His door was open slightly and with one thrust it flew open. A cold breeze blew past me as I entered his room that was a bright blue. Everything was almost a shade of yellow making the room look like a sun in a clear blue sky.
A stage was on the other side with a set of drums, several guitars and pianos. He grinned and snapped his fingers and a band appeared from thin air. I scoffed softly before joining him on stage.
"You like?" He waved his hand to the group that stared and smiled fondly at me.
"No, I'm just standing here in amazement" I sarcastically spat back.
"You go first. The band will play a song that I have requested them to sing." Once again, he flashed a smile that would make girls die. I grabbed the microphone and waited for the song to begin. The backup singers finally began.
Hey, Hey! You, You! I don't like your girlfriend!
No way! He was not making me sing this song! I took a deep breath before my solo came. I decided to give it a little extra.
Your so fine, I want you mine, Your so delicious. I think about you all the time, your so addictive.
I stepped down the stage and circled around him closely, rubbing against his body making him shiver. I laughed silently to myself before joining in with the girls in the chorus. The second solo was coming up and I prepared a tactic plan to seduce him. I was truly enjoying myself.
I can see the way, see the way you look at me. And even when you look away I know you think of me.
I pretend to search the seas for him and slightly bent down to make him think of me.
So come over here and tell me what I wanna here. Better yet make the girlfriend disappear.
I tried my best to reel him in and he really walked to me before I turned and marched back on the stage leaving him desperately hanging for me.
In a second you'll be wrapped around my finger. Cause I can, Cause I can do it better. There's no other so what's it gonna sink in? She so stupid what the hell were you thinking?
I twirled my hand in the air and patted myself several times so he can see what he's missing. I joined in with the girls again before ending the song with a long note. He applauded and stood from his seat to probably congratulate me. He held his arm wide and smacked right into me with a fierce hug.
"Well done! I'm glad I gave you it. Now let's use that voice for a duet." He has to be joking. Why did he decide to torture me now? The band began the intro to no air and I knew that I had to react fast because I was in lead first.
Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air, If I should die before I wake, It's 'cause you took my breath away, Losing you is like living in a world with no air Oh
I ended the note on beat and on pitch but when he sang, butterflies came in my stomach. He was eighty times better than Chris Brown.
I walked, I ran, I jumped, I flew, Right off the ground to float to you, There's no gravity to hold me down for real
I broke in quickly.
But somehow I'm still alive inside, You took my breath, but I survived, I don't know how, but I don't even care
We sang the chorus together, our voices combined as one sounded like a army marching on the streets of a parade. It was beautiful and could probably bring you to tears. We finally ended the song together, panting for air in short breaths. A burst of claps rang in the room. I whipped my head towards the commotion and faced everyone who stood together in a group whistling. My cheeks began to burn and Apollo noticed. He wrapped a arm around me and forced me to bow.
I jumped off the stage and ran to my parents that were dying to embrace me.
"You sang beautifully, darling." Mom hugged me tightly before releasing her grasp and smiling lightly.
"Like an angel." Dad added on. Apollo came up from behind scaring the hell out of me.
"Apollo!" I punched him in chest causing him to enter a fits of laughter.
"Sorry, I just wanted to offer an escort to your room." He held his arm out waiting for me to grab. Hesitantly, I linked my arm to his and together, we exited the room. I heard Hermes and Ares talking amongst themselves, mostly 'Such a dick' and 'Thinks he's all that'.
I eyed him worriedly but he never gazed back.
"Were you flirting with me?" He broke the silence and I stared at him embarrassed.
"No! I just thought it would be fun. It was your idea!" I shot back at him hoping he didn't see my burning cheeks. We turned a corner only a few feet away from my door. He stopped and held me back before I went into my room.
His hand glided from my shoulder to my chin tilting my head up to him. His eyes were a shade of blue I haven't seen before. He started to lean in slowly at snail speed. He was a inch from my face now, his hot breath fogging the view with cinnamon. It felt like time stood still, I was frozen in place. His plump lips brushed lightly on mines but pulled back due to a humming sound that came from my pants. That was strange, I don't recall having a phone. I bit my bottom lip before pulling the phone out. I already missed the call so I stuffed it back in my pocket. He stood there swaying back and forth raising his arm to his neck.
"So, yeah. Um, See you tomorrow." He disappeared into gold dust. I turned to my door and placed my hand on the cold doorknob but turned back to a stifled laugh. I pinned a body to the wall that was now laughing uncontrollably.
"Relax Alex! It's me!" A voice finally broke out from the laughter. I loosened my arm, it was definitely Artemis. What was she doing here at this time? It wasn't late but she was suppose to be in her room getting ready for dinner. She finally walked out of the shadow and stood in front of me, a spitting image of her brother. The last few minutes played in my head several time like a record player until she finally spoke again.
"Want to talk about anything?" Oh shit! I am begging the gods she did not see what happened. I shook my head rapidly hoping she would leave but she stood there confronting me.
"You can't hide anything, he's my twin. I felt the entire thing!" I grabbed her hand and pulled her into my room. She sat on my bed while I laid on my back.
"You actually felt it?" I questioned her with my eyes closed.
"Dude, He's my other half and the fact were gods makes it even more sensible." I placed my hands on my face and sighed.
"Did you feel your brothers emotions?" I hoped she didn't, it would be embarrassing for him.
"Yeah," I groaned. " Mostly desire and love." I can't believe he actually feels that way. I read that gods could be overprotective of their lovers, and I may have some feelings for him. You can't ignore it, he is freakishly hot and sweet. I pulled out my phone from my pocket and touched the list of calls. Hermes was the last caller, probably to play another game with me.
"Is it wrong for me to have feelings?" Artemis perked up and blushed faintly.
"I'm not the right girl for this kind of conversation." She spoke quickly before standing.
"See you at dinner." The door closed slowly behind her before shutting. I fell back and stared at the ceiling till I heard a faint knock on the door. I pulled myself up and walked to the door before swinging it open. Dad stood in the doorway smiling widely..
"I have done something to make you happy." He walked in my room without me even invite him. He sat in a chair while I came to him slowly.
"What is it? Is it another party?" I crossed my fingers together and he chuckled heartily.
"No, I have scheduled a trip for us all to Cedar Point! I came to tell you first because I know you are good with secrets." I squealed at the thought of all fun we would have before hugging him in a death hug. He finally fought his way out gasping for air.
"I swear your grip is becoming stronger by the day!" His face wrinkled into a smile and he finally stood to leave. He waved goodbye and left. I continued my happy dance until it finally came to a halt. I went to my closet and grabbed my dress that was mandatory for me to wear to dinner. I slipped it on an placed a pearl necklace around my neck and my tiara. I twirled around and shrieked in fear. Aphrodite somehow managed to sneak into my room while I was dressing.
"I heard you were looking for me?" She grinned toothily. Artemis must have told her.
"How much do you know?" I made a mental note to try and kill Artemis later.
"Not much, I feel. Right now, I feel that you are choosing between two men at the moment." She closed her eyes before opening them quickly. She mumbled something and then turned her attention to me.
"Who are they? Just curious I already know." She waited for me to respond but the door opened and Athena entered.
"Knock Knock!" She giggled bubbly. What is it with these people coming into my room without knocking? She wore her classic uniform, a short whit toga that was pinned to the shoulder with a gold pendant and stopped above her knees with gold ruffled into the wrinkles of the dress. Her helmet was in between her arm and her shoulder length brown hair sat peacefully exaggerating the stormy gray eyes she had.
"Father said he wants us there immediately, He has something to tell us." A smirk was on her face and I smiled along with her. We both knew what he wanted to say. We all came out of the room and walked to the dining room together. Everyone was in there sits already, waiting impatiently for us.
" 'Bout time you get here!" Hermes threw his hands in the air slapping invisible bugs. We all took our seat and sat quietly. Dad finally told them about the trip to the amusement park and the room was suddenly filled with arguments and cheering.
"You know how the mortals fear our presence!" Uncle Hades began to argue with Dad which he lost to. My brothers grinned widely towards me while I shrank behind the table. Athena poked me playfully and I laughed with her. This trip will be a roller coaster ride for us all. Uncle Poseidon seemed calmed about the trip and my Aunts were thrilled. The servants brought our dinner, tonight we had lasagna with peppered shrimp Alfredo and a small bowl of Parmesan butter and bread sticks. I started to twirl the noodles with my fork avoiding the shrimp. I detested sea food, were already killing animals, why go to sea?
" We are going the day after tomorrow, leaving at seven thirty in the morning." Another argument began due to the earliness of the activity. I didn't even know family outings were as hectic as this. Something was chewing at the back of my head, something that I couldn't reach. It finally came to me; what would their names be?
It bothered me the entire dinner before I finally gathered the courage to ask.
"May I ask what your names will be? We can't just go there saying Artemis or Hades." I had a feeling I sounded sarcastic.
"Good point. Well, you can keep your name. I could be... John!" Several scoffs were heard but soon everyone agreed.
"I could be Damien." Hermes shouted and the others began to say random names. I had to remember all this and hope I didn't confuse them. That would be the end of my life. Another thought struck me, one I should have thought before.
"What if I see someone I knew?" The room became silent for a few minutes before Dad spoke again.
"We'll make sure it doesn't happen." He smiled lightly but I knew it pained him. We went back to the clanging of the forks against the plates before we all left. Dad was taking me to my room due to the fact my brothers were fighting over to take me. He ended the argument by just taking me without them knowing.
"Did you really mean that?" He stopped for a moment before answering.
"I will try my best. You heard your uncle, this is dangerous but I'm doing it for you. I know you miss earth." I cooed silently to myself before hugging him tightly.
"Thanks dad." He wrapped his arms around me and patted me lightly placing his chin in my hair. He released me and went back down the hall while I stood in front of my door. I went in and sat on my bed, exhausted from almost being pulled apart by my brothers.
This trip could put us in serious shit if we screw up.
