Warning: This story takes place in our time period and in ancient Greece... It's a bit confusing but you'll soon see what I mean. I've made it pretty obvious who the characters are but if you get stuck on one that you can't figure out don't be afraid to ask. There is also no subtext. This is my first Xena fic so please let me know what you think.
CHAPTER 2
"BEEEP!", the alarm clock rang, waking up the young figure in bed.
"Man morning already? It felt like just 5 minutes ago I went to sleep!", Lena said sleepily. "What a crazy dream", she said and shook her head slightly.
She looked down and smiled as her faithful cream colored Chihuahua came running through the door. "Morning Argo", she greeted brightly. Argo jumped on the bed and licked at her masters face. Lena laughed and got out of bed.
It was around 6:30. Lena hated getting up in the morning for school when she was exhausted. She usually had no trouble getting up, in fact most of the time she rose with the sun.
"I better call Elle", she said knowing that Gabriella, her best friend, on the other hand did have trouble waking up, tired or not.
"Elle?", Lena asked when she heard a sleepy voice answer.
"I'm here, barely, but I'm here", Elle said and laughed. "What's up Lena?", she asked getting up.
"Obviously not you a moment ago", Lena smirked.
"Come on Lena you know how I am... even an alarm clock can't get me up!", Elle scolded playfully.
"Yeah, yeah, I know you all too well. I'm gonna' go and get ready, I'll pick you and Everence up in about 30 minutes, cool?", Lena asked getting out her school clothes.
"Yeah cool, I'll see ya later", Elle said and hung up.
About 25 minutes had passed and Lena was smoothing out her long dark hair. She put on the finishing touches on her make-up and smiled. She hated when Elle did her make-up, she did things that made her look like a Greek goddess...perhaps tramp? She turned and looked at the clock it was already going to be 7:00.
"Whoa!", she cried. She got her things and drove off to Elle's house. Elle was waiting for her on the porch.
"Wow I didn't actually have to honk 5 thousand times today?", Lena asked sarcastically.
"Ha-ha very funny!", Elle said in mock laughter.
Lena smirked at her best friend and shook her head. She then drove over to her friend Everence's house. She honked once and out came a young girl with long curly brown hair, who in reality kind of resembled Lena. She got into Lena's jeep and smiled.
"Good Morning girls", Everence greeted.
"Morning Evie", the girls returned.
"So Evie, how was that hot date Friday night?", Lena asked slyly.
"That Ms. Angelena Prince is not any of your business!", Evie returned laughing.
"Well Ms. Gabriella Bard wants to know because it is her business! I'm the one who set you up with him!", Elle smiled and turned to look at her.
Evie laughed. She loved her two new best friends. When she first started Athenian High School about 4 months ago she felt like a complete outcast. It felt as if no one cared if Everence Rome lived or died, but Lena and Elle took her under their wings no questions asked.
"Fine you want to know?", Evie looked at both of them. Both girls nodded their heads yes.
"It was... Amazing! Virgil was a true gentleman", said Evie dreamily.
Lena raised an eyebrow and smiled, she knew they would hit it off great.
"Well that's a relief... I'm glad you guys hit it off so well!", Elle said getting a brush out of her purse, smiling inwardly at her great matchmaking.
"Yeah I told him to call me next Friday and we would do something!", Evie said excitedly.
Elle smiled at Lena and started to brush out her long blond hair. She knew they would get along just fine.
