A/N I actually really hate this chapter...I feel it is rushed...so please forgive me for it. I suddenly was not into ClairexEros...but I was like I NEED a chapter for them! I also met some really cool readers and wanted to give them a shout out HI GUYS talk to you later on Zelda LS and please don't tell me how horrible this chapter is...I already don't like it...but I'm posting it because the ideas keep coming...

A/N 2 I am posting this little thing so people can keep the gods and their mortal names straight. I was also asked why I chose to write them as "humans" It was easier for me to write them that way and in a modern setting for this one.

Zeus - Zach
Hera - Heather
Ares - Allen
Dionysus - David
Eros - Eric

Chapter 10

Eros looked at the sleeping woman next to him. Not since Pysche had he been with someone, well that he cared about. Things had gone very wrong there, and then there had been Narissa, whom he had loved, but it was hard to be in love with a mortal...at least then it was. Especially when he found out she was Hera's Champion and Dionysus' daughter, she was a demigoddess, and after two years of trying to plan an actual wedding, the two had decided to go their separate ways. It was for the best, she had met a wonderful young man, Zeal, and the two were expecting their first baby, he was pretty excited for them.

The woman moved a bit then, muttering something in her sleep, her lips lightly brushing his neck, and her hand laying on his chest. He glanced down at her kissing her forehead, she stirred again and looked up at him.

"Hey," She whispered, her voice light, sleepy. It was a pleasant sound, at least he thought so.

"Sorry I didn't mean to wake you," He smiled and kissed her lips softly. "Feeling okay?"

"Yes," Came the reply as her lips brushed his back. "I feel very good, Eros." Her voice held a tint of seduction behind it.

He smiled holding her close for a second, he was about to say something when her cell interrupted the two.

"Sorry." She stated sitting up and holding the covers close to her, she opened the phone, "Its ...wait I don't recognize this number..."

He peaked over her shoulder. "Its Ares, you better answer it, it could be about Heather." He kissed her cheek. "I'll go make us something to eat."

She held his hand for a while, almost as if afraid of him leaving, but he smiled kissed her softly, dressed then left the bedroom. She was answering her phone then pushing the send button.

"Hello, this is Janet, how may I help you...?" Janet wasn't sure if Ares knew that she knew it would be him. Since she obviously wouldn't recognize his number.

"Janet, oh thank...well yeah whatever, its mom she's gone into labor, how fast can you get here?" Ares sounded panicked, and that wasn't normal for him.

"Give me that!" A female voice stated grabbing the cell phone. "Don't worry Janet, I have it covered, I've delivered a baby before...I'm just surrounded by men who have never had to deal with it." She sighed.

Janet chuckled softly then. "Alright Claire, but if there are any problems, ANY at all you call me I'll be over there as fast as possible."

"Don't worry I will." The other woman hung up, she wasn't a doctor, but Janet was sure the young woman could handle it.

Janet got up then, hearing the sizzle of bacon down stairs, she smiled wrapped the sheets around her and started a shower. A warm shower was what she needed, she just hoped Ares and Zeus wouldn't get in the way too much. Zeus shouldn't, right? I mean he's been through this what three times, four if he was there for Hephaestus' birth. Still, was he there? I mean there in the room, she sighed a bit and rubbed the shampoo into her hair. Stop thinking, she told herself, you are are suppose to enjoy your day with Eros. She nearly dropped the conditioner bottle when she heard the door open.

"Sis..." Her brother, Allan, was standing in the door way, rubbing his eyes sleepily. "Did Eric stay over last night?"

Janet bit her lip, she couldn't lie. Though how do you explain that kind of thing to a twelve year old boy...? Was he really ready for the talk any ways? What had she been thinking last night? Was this part of Eros' magic pull, no, no of course not.

"Yes, Allan...he stayed last night." Janet replied. "In fact he's making us breakfast."

"I know," Allan told her. "French toast, orange juice, and he found the bacon you couldn't yesterday."

The woman grabbed the towel that was hanging up and wrapped it around herself opening the curtain the steam rose surrounded her. "IT doesn't bother you?"

"Oh please sis, who you chose to sleep with is your business." The twelve year old replied, sounded more like a teenager then twelve, already he was starting to take on some "teen boy" qualities. "And he makes you happy right?"

Janet knew her face was a slight red color. "Yes...he makes me happy."

"Good cause he already asked me." Allan left the room then.

"Wait asked what!?" Her brother had already left then, and she went about getting herself ready for the day, stewing. Just what had Eros asked Allan, had Eros even told Allan who he was?! Just what had she gotten herself into...seriously? She stared at herself in the mirror.

Eros stood in the door way leaning against it, already dressed in a pair of black jeans and a t-shirt, he chuckled a bit, startling her. He smirked then as she glared at him, he was quiet use to that. "What did Ares call about?"

"Hera is having the baby." Janet replied not looking at him as she brushed her hair and pulled it into a high pony tail. "Claire said she would handle it, I'm sure she can. She's delivered a baby before, so I'm not worried." She put on a little bit of dark eye shadow.

"You know you really don't have a need for make up." He told her "You have a natural glow about you that even Aphrodite would envy."

"Should you be saying that?" She replied, turning to face him then. "I hear she has this thing for you."

He laughed then, she would never tire of hearing that. "Aphrodite does not have a thing for me, she's just kind of well...Aphrodite. She can actually be quiet pleasant, at times, it just depends. Any ways breakfast is ready, and we better go eat before Allan eats it all, kids got quiet an appetite."

"...Eros..." She grabbed his hand then. "What have you told him?"

"Nothing he doesn't already know," The god replied, "Your brother is smart, most kids are, they can tell who we are from first glance, it depends. Not to mention your brother has seen me before..."

Janet blinked, "How when?"

"Last year, I went to visit him..." Eros replied. "I was in the hospital because this old couple was about to lose each.." He stopped then, "They asked me to be there...not everyone doesn't know who we are..." He cleared his throat of the lump in it then. "Its complicated, but Allan knows, he's known since we met."

"...And you didn't think it was important to tell me..." She asked angerily. "Just what were you thinking not telling me!"

"Janet," He still held her hand and pulled her close kissing her. "Shush now, we're okay, everything is alright."

"... …. I'm still a little upset with you." Janet replied. "By the way what did you ask him?"

"I'll tell you later," Eros replied walking out then, "Come on breakfast waits."
