Aphrodite sashayed down the hall with her ladies behind her. Down at the opposite end Artemis and her friends stood in the middle of the hallway laughing at a story one of the girls were telling. Aphrodite stopped dead in her tracks, clicking her toe on the floor and her hands on her hips, when the group didn't part.

"Hello," she said with an attitude, "We are trying to walk, sis. Mind moving your bottoms."

Artemis just looked at her and bluntly said, "No," and went back to her business.

"Excuse me?" she asked, now crossing her arms, "What did you just say?"

"What are you deaf now?" Artemis shot back, "I said no. N-O spells no."

"Then again it's not like any of you can spell," Artemis's friend Phoebe remarked.

'Ohhhs' rang out through the jocks as they covered their smirks and laughs. Even though Artemis and her friends were a grade younger, they never let anyone boss them around, no matter who they were. Since Aphrodite acted like the queen and diva of the halls their groups had quickly become arch enemies since third grade.

"You dirty little rat!" screamed Petunia, "You will take that back or I will..."

"What?" Phoebe asked, "Throw a hairbrush at me?"

The girl jocks were doubling over with laughter.

"Ok, ok," Zoe stepped next to Phoebe, "You're right Aphrodite. You all are not stupid. You just have bad luck when thinking."

Laughter and 'Oohs' rang all through the school. The girls began high fiving Zoe and patting her on the shoulders.

"You know I'd slap you," Juliette spoke as she flipped her hair back, "But that'd be animal abuse."

The jocks stopped laughing immediately as another round of 'Oohs' filled the hall.

"I'm sorry was the meant to offend us?" Bianca asked, "Because the only thing offending me is your face."

The girls cheered as Bianca smirked and arched her brow, waiting for another comeback.

"Oh really?" Aphrodite said, "Well…"

Athena then stood between them and shouted, "Enough!"

Everyone quickly backed up and kept quiet quickly. Everyone knew not to mess with Athena, especially when she's yelling at her siblings.

"Both of you are acting like children," she said outraged.

The girls didn't dare speak, but if stares could kill they would be dead a hundred times over.

"Now I want you guys to turn around and take your attitudes somewhere where I can't see them," Athena ordered.

The two groups turned, marching down to opposite ends of the halls, steam coming out of their ears. Athena sighed and walked towards her locker to shut it.

"Hmm...feisty," she heard a familiar voice say behind her, " I like feisty."

She jabbed her elbow into the figure behind her and he doubled over, clutching his stomach.

"Oh sorry Benjamin, didn't see you there," she said and stalked down the hall.

She entered in her Calculus class, which was quite easy to her. Her blonde hair fell over her face when she bent down, in her seat, to pull out her textbook. The guys sitting behind her starred with smirks on their faces. Some were "whispering" to one another at how hot she was and Athena just glared at them.

"Hey babe," the basketball star entered the room, Anthony.

At the beginning of the semester, Athena was surprised that he was actually smart enough to be in Calculus.

"Get lost, Anthony," Athen said, pretending to look over her homework for mistakes.

"So how does my house sound?" he flirted, ignoring her comment, "Say I'll pick you up at six?"

"Sorry but Athena already has a date tonight," a boy's voice sounded behind him.

Anthony spun around quickly, a bit wide eyed by the guy behind him. The football star, Justin, stood in all his glory. Athena had despised him at first, but after being forced to hang out with him since he was dating her best friend, they became good friends. He had confessed to her that at first he was messing around, but she ended up being a pretty cool girl and they began their serious relationship, much to Athena's relief. She wasn't the type of friend that was good at comforting broken couples.

"Yeah right," Anthony said, "Everyone knows that you're dating Jasmine."

"Who said I was the date?" Justin arched an eyebrow.

Anthony stood there, thinking it through his brain.

"Now if I were you, I would go sit in your seat before I give you a black eye," Justin warned.

Anthony scrambled away and Justin sat down in the seat beside Athena.

"Great timing," Athen said, moving her hair so it all sat on her right shoulder.

"That trick always works," Justin said, leaning back with his hands behind head.

"I seriously think he cheated his way into this class," Athena whispered.

"Who says he's still not cheating?" he whispered back and they both laughed.

Their teacher Ms. Thomson entered and they began.

"Pop quiz," she said in her old, raspy voice.

Everyone groaned, but Athena just looked at Justin excitedly, while he covered his face with his hands. The quizzes were handed out and Athena went right to work. She began working out the problems in her head and writing it down on her paper without using the calculator. She finished the last question, boxing the answer. She got up to turn in her test, making Ms. Thomas scowl a bit. She snatched it out of her hand, obviously angry she already had to start grading. The bell rang after a boring lecture and everyone was relieved to escape the dusty classroom.

"Athena!" she heard a familiar voice yell out to her.

Athena turned and was tackled into a hug by Jasmine.

"I haven't seen you in forever," she said happily.

"You saw me two hours ago," Athena pointed out, trying to breathe.

"I know but that was like a whole class period ago."

Athena rolled her eyes, a smile on her face.

"Do I get a hug?" Justin asked behind Athena.

"Oh you get more than just a hug," Jasmine said, standing on her tiptoes to give him a sweet kiss.

"Hey we should all get together to study," Jasmine said, "We have that big test in history class coming up."

Justin groaned out loud making the two girls roll their eyes.

"Yeah that sounds like a good idea," Athena said, "We can invite Kyle, Kayla, Brett, and Claire also."

"Oh sounds fun," Jasmine said excitedly.

"Yeah nothing says fun like a study group," Justin said sarcastically.

The two ignored him and continued talking.

"How about my house tonight?" Athena offered, "We can all meet up after school."

"Sounds like a plan," Jasmine smiled and then looked at her boyfriend, "Now wipe that frown off your face mister."

Justin plastered on a smile and they walked down the hall hand in hand. Athena walked down the opposite hall, opening a book. She heard a boy's voice call out and it sounded like Anthony.

"Look I told you over and over," Athena yelled out, "I will not date yo….AHHHH!"

Ares stood behind her, his hand on his chest, looking very grossed out.

"That disgusted me so much I forgot what I was going to say," Ares said, walking past her.

Athena pressed the book against her face and groaned. That was probably the most embarrassing thing she had ever done.
