~*~Chapter 3~*~
~*~Hermes' POV~*~
That was close. I must pay attention to what I do. If I give Cupid any more inspiration, I might as well be a Muse!
It seems that the easiest thing to do would be to try and keep the two as far apart as possible. The harder it is to for that Cupid to bring them together, the easier it is for me to win. I'll put my plan into action at night, and let Cupid have his fun during the day.
I followed Draco around the school and found out that he had Divination with the Gryffindors. The subject for the day was crystal-gazing. No sooner had they begun the class, Cupid was forming images of the two as a couple in Hermione and Draco's crystal-balls. I quickly stopped him by making Neville's ball roll off the table and shatter on the floor; distracting Cupid which made the images fade away. But I was a little too late. Draco and Hermione had begun to glance with something that looked a little more than quizzical looks. Even though I don't specialize in love and all these things, I could tell that the look wasn't going to help me in my challenge.
Cupid noticed the look of horror on my face and started laughing. I'll show him. The last person who laughed at me had her band broken up and she disappeared into obscurity. But that is another story I'll save for later.
Anyway, back to my problem. How in Hades am I going to keep those two apart? How am I going to stop Cupid from doing something that he is an expert on? How can I think on an empty stomach? It must be lunch time.
I flew back up to Mount Olympus. Stopping the romance can wait till after lunch. Besides, I'll have plenty of time to put my plan into action tonight.
~*~End of Chap 3~*~
A/N: Wow!!! Look at all the reviews I got! I never really expected so many! Loads of thanks to all he people who reviewed!!
So, the third chapter already! (Oh yeah, sorry McG for not sending the last chapter, something was wrong with Hotmail.)
Anyway, sorry for the short chapter, it's kind of hard to write the story in Hermes' POV; I can usually put more details in Cupid's chapters.
*looks at last line of chapter* Hmmm, do you guys think this counts as a cliffhanger? You know, I think I'll keep it like this to see what other writers like so much about leaving cliffhangers like this.
*sees people running at me with dangerous looking objects* or not…
Anyways, I'll post the last chapter as soon as I type it out and I get it back from my Beta (McG). So, tc until then!!
Ciao!!
