Crazy trouble with love part 3
Galatea and Hercules
Series: Hercules
xxxxxxxxxxxx
It was a normal day in Greece, people were in togas, Hercules was fighting a monster, the usual.
"Come on kid, lift with your legs!" A small half goat half man yelled at him.
Hercules grunted as he grabbed the cyclops around the gut and strained to use his legs.
"Come on! Lift him up and throw him into a mountain!"
"Trying here!" he groaned out as he got the cyclops up and pulled back with his arms and hurled the monster as far as he could.
"Nice job kid! Though next time do it faster, ok?"
"I'll try Phil." he spoke while rotating his arms. "I thought I was gonna pop my arm out of place with that one."
"That's why we train kid, to get better." he smirked before they started walking down the street. "Look on the bright side, every time you get banged up and come back, that just shows you're too stubborn to stay down."
"Yeah, true, plus now the monsters can't hurt people." he smiled. "But it does kinda get boring cause now I gotta work on my report, which is due in two days."
"Eh? A report? On what?"
"On how many uses rocks have. Really boring."
"Eh, definitely sounds boring, so are you doing it yourself or do you got help?"
"By mys-" he was cut off as he bumped into someone without noticing.
"Ow!" They said as he and the person fell to the ground in a heap.
Phil looked and blinked before jumping. "Look out kid! It's that crazy broad!"
"Huh? Crazy what?" He asked in confusion before seeing who he had bumped into. "Galatea?"
"Hercules?"
"Uh, hey, how ya doing?" he asked awkwardly while helping her back to her feet.
"Good, good, how've you been doing?" She asked.
"Really great. Just uh, beating monsters up, saving the day, you know the usual."
"Yeah, great, um, are you also doing the report on rocks?"
"Yeah, really boring am I right?"
"Yeah, um...would you by chance want to, I dunno, work on it together?" she asked. "I mean, if not I can totally understand if you're busy."
"I'm, no, I'm free, where do you wanna work?" He asked.
"Well, you could come by my new house if that's fine with you."
"Sure, where is it?"
"Just outside of town."
"Ok, I'll be there in an hour." he smiled while she walked off and Phil shook his head.
"Kid, you sure that's a good idea?" he asked. "Wasn't that girl all nutty and obsessive? And someone you made Aphrodite come to life just cause you couldn't find a date?"
"But she's alive now and Aphrodite fixed her."
"The day I get a woman is the day I believe that. Trust me kid, once they go nutty, they never go back."
"Aphrodite herself fixed her, she's fine." he reassured while we cut back to Galatea.
"Ah, nothing like coming home." she said as she entered her house. She walked over to her couch and sat down with a relaxed sigh. "Life is good." she said, unaware of the figure behind the couch. "I'm my own person, I've got a nice house, what else could a girl ask for?"
"How about Hercules?" A voice said behind her.
She jumped and turned to see Hades standing there with a smirk. "Hi, Hades, lord of the underworld, how you going?"
"Excellent. And I couldn't help but overhear you saying all the things you got that make you feel alive and like a real girl, am I right?"
"Yeah, why do ask?" She asked curiously.
"Because I know something else you're gonna need."
"What?" She asked cautiously.
"Ok, you got an education, place, and you're your own person. A lot of good stuff, but ain't you lonely in this house? Sure you could get a pet, but then you got all that hair and mess to clean up. So what about a man instead?"
"Well, I'm kind of lonely, it's not like I have any parents." she admitted looking at the ground making Hades smirk.
"Good, I can make that happen you know."
"How? Make a man out of thin air? One out of clay and dirt?"
"Nope." he said as he made a potion appear or of thin air. "This little number is something I made to help you out. It's made to direct you to the right man for you. Quick, easy, and takes no effort whatsoever."
"Really? What's the catch?"
"No catch. Except for a feeling of dizziness, over energetic, but other then that, you'll be alright."
"Ok, sounds good." she said as she carefully took the vial from him.
"Good luck, you're gonna need it." he muttered the last part before disappearing.
"I wonder what that means?" She wondered. 'If it's from Hades I'm tempted to just ignore this.'
'But then again, I am kind of lonely.' she thought as she stared at the vial. 'Just a sip couldn't hurt.' She thought as she uncapped the vial and tipped it to her mouth.
She emptied the potion in her mouth and swallowed it before saying. "Huh, tastes fruity." But as she set it down she twitched and made faces while groaning. "Ooohhh, I don't feel so good." she moaned while sitting down. "I knew I shouldn't have taken that stuff."
Suddenly, she felt an incredible urge to be with Hercules. But her rational mind tried to keep her calm.
"Snap out of it, you're not like that anymore, you're your own person!" She said as she clutched her head.
'On the other hand, that doesn't mean you have to quit men altogether.' She thought as images of Hercules appeared in her mind.
"N-No! Yes he made me, but I didn't focus on anything but him!"
'But he was nice to you, he would have stayed with you if you hadn't pushed him away.'
"I wanted to be myself! My own person, and I wanted to get away because acting crazy like that was embarrassing."
'You can still be yourself, except you'll have him, you won't be lonely anymore.'
"But he'll go running for the hills as soon as I ask him."
'Then don't ask him, take him and show him how much you love him.'
She blushed while her thoughts drifted to Hercules stripping and her seeing his bare body. "B-but what if he doesn't like me?"
'Oh please, with our looks and powers, we can make him fall for us easy. Plus we were made basically in his image of the perfect girl, we are what he wants.'
"Well...ok you've got me there." She said with a blush.
'See? Now go out there and don't wait for him to come to us, we'll go to him!'
"Yeah, yeah, I'm gonna do it!" she smiled. "I'm a little rusty, but I'll show him what I can really do with my body."
'That's the spirit, now get out there and get him!'
Galatea sighed before walking out of her home. "I hope this goes well." She walked down the road looking around for him. "Now where is he?"
As she walked she turned and went wide eyed seeing Hercule drench his face with water from a bucket with the water trickling down his muscles.
'Isn't he hot? He is yours, that's all yours.'
Galatea blushed and walked over while Hercules dried his face with a towel. "H-hey Hercules." she said, getting his attention. "W-Whatcha doing?"
"Oh, I was just cleaning off my sweat before coming over to your house."
"O-Oh, that's cool." she gulped while staring at his chest.
"So, wanna go to your house and get started on the report?"
"Yeah! I mean, sure." She quickly said.
"Alright, I'll be around in two minutes."
"Alright, I'll be waiting." she winked and walked away while swaying her hips.
"W-wow." he said as he watched her before shaking his head. 'Focus Hercules! You need to get this report done.' He thought as he picked up his book bag and made his way towards her house.
'Ok, just stay calm, get the report done, THEN jump his bones.' She thought as she waited for him to knock on her door. When it did she made sure she looked good before answering. "Hi there Hercules."
"Hey Galatea, ready to work?"
"Yup, you just sit on the couch while I go get my paper."
"Ok, sounds good." he said as he walked in.
She grinned and ran to her room, grabbed it, and ran back before taking a seat next to him. "So, what are the uses of rocks?" She asked.
(Timeskip)
"And the final use of rocks is a projectile weapon." he said.
"There, we're finally done." She said as she set down her paper as she looked at him.
"So...looks like we've got some free time." He said as he set down his paper as well.
'Now's my chance!' She thought as she stared at Hercules. "Hey Hercules, what say we celebrate?"
"Celebrate? Celebrate what?"
She climbed onto his lap with a sultry look. "Us getting that done of course."
"W-what? Getting what done?"
She grinned before her arms stretched out and wrapped around him. "Why our marriage of course."
"M-M-Marriage?!" He stuttered as he struggled to free himself. 'Wait, is she reverting to what she was before?' He thought as Galatea tightened her grip on him. "W-Wait Galatea! I thought you were your own person?"
"I am, and I want you." she said as she got up and began to drag him to another room. "Sure I have a home and my own personality, but then that made me ponder. Why not share this place with the guy I was crazy for? Cause I'd be lying if I said you were revolting and hard to look at."
"B-but what about Ajax? I thought you liked him?"
"Forget it, I got bored quickly with his hygiene." she stuck her tongue out in disgust.
"B-but why me? I thought you didn't like me?"
"Well it's not really that. I just wanted to be myself instead of some crazy girl going after you. And in a way, I am myself. But who says a girl who's her own person can't find that special someone?"
"Then what do you call this!?"
"What? Sometimes being a little forceful is needed for a growing relationship." she replied while they entered her bedroom.
"But this is kidnapping!"
"Says the guy who made me just to have a date." she shot back with a raised eyebrow.
"I uh, well..." he stuttered in embarrassment.
"See? Now let's skip the ceremony and get to the honeymoon~" she purred with half lidded eyes.
'I gotta get out of here!' he thought before quickly using his strength to break free of her long arms and ran out of the room.
"Hey, get back here!" She shouted before getting up and ran off after him as he got out of the house.
"I gotta get out of here, where's Pegasus, she can't follow me in the air." he said to himself as he ran.
"HERCULES!"
He turned his head and gulped as he saw Galatea chasing after him. He booked it faster with Galatea making sure to keep him in site.
"I won't lose you!" She shouted while pushing people out of the way with a determined look in her eyes.
"Crap, Pegasus, where are you!?" He shouted.
Said horse was having an early lunch with Phil at this very moment.
"Want some hot or tin cans?" Phil asked him.
Pegasus neighed.
"Hay it is." he said as he handed him a large bundle of hay.
'I really need help here!' He thought as Galatea got closer.
She held one hand out before it stretched out towards him. "Get over here!"
His eyes widened and he ran past a corner with the arm following. "Could she do that last time?" he questioned before the hand grabbed the back of his toga.
"Gotcha!" She said happily before reeling her arm in like a fishing rod.
"Whoa!" He shouted as he was dragged back. He grabbed at the arm and ripped it off. "Sorry!" He said as he dropped the severed arm and began to run.
She frowned and reeled both arms back before getting an idea and molded them into a set of wings before she started flapping them. "Come on." she said as she flapped harder as she began to lift off the ground. She slowly got higher before flapping her body to where she figured Hercules was. "Don't worry my love, I'm coming!"
Hercules ran and ducked down and alley while looking down the street to see if Galatea was running after him. "I think I lost her."
But in the air Galatea spotted him and slowly started to descend near his spot.
Hercules, who had yet to spot her leaned against a wall to catch his breath. "Woo, that was way too close."
"Yeah, I almost lost you." a voice said above him.
His eyes widened and looked up to see Galatea with her new wings. "You can fly!?"
"Big time." she grinned before they morphed back into arms and stretched them out to him. "Now get over here!" She shouted.
He jumped before her arms tied around his body.
"Hey, no fair, stay still!" she frowned as he tried wriggling free.
"What? No! Let me out!"
She got an idea and swung her arms up and brought Hercules onto the roof before her arms wrapped up over his legs and tighter around him.
"Hey, what are you doing!?"
"This." she smirked while her own body stretched out to help wrap around him with her head in front of his. "Comfy?"
"Well, kinda but I'd be more comfortable if you let me go."
"How about this?" she leaned in and pressed their lips together while she gave him a squeeze like a hug.
'She's kissing me!' he thought. 'Wow, and her lips are really soft too.'
She kissed him for a few more seconds before pulling away and asking. "How'd you like that?"
"Uh, well...it was good." He said sheepishly as she smiled happily.
"Good, because I just thought of something you'll love even more."
"What?"
A few smaller tendrils rose up and started morphing into extra heads of her own. "Now then, let's have some fun~" they all said in unison.
He blushed before two moved over and started kissing him at the same time. 'Wow, not how I thought this day would go.' he thought with a blush as they kissed him.
