A/N: My other COTT fic " Narcissism" is on hiatus right now. No one seems to be reviewing. It depresses me and I can't seem to bring myself to write. I'll definitely continue it, but right now I'm in the mood for some humour since my other fic is quite dark. I realize that most girls don't have a problem with telling their guy friends that they have their periods, I know I certainly don't. (It gives them a fair warning) But I thought I'd keep each of the characters personalities intact, because I don't see either Theresa or Atlanta telling any of the boys that it's that time of the month.

" Is she alright?"

" What's wrong with her?"

Hera silenced the group of teenagers who had fired an arsenal of questions at her as soon as she had left the small room were Theresa was resting.

" She's fine. And I don't think you boys should concern yourselves with her condition right now"

Jay's eyebrows furrowed, and he stepped forward.

" Why not? Shouldn't we have the right to know?…and what do you mean by us boys?"

The grey and white haired goddess cleared her throat, looking quite uncomfortable. Atlanta soon joined them, walking to stand beside Hera, looking at Jay and the others questioningly.

" It's a girl issue"

Her voice seemed very particular, even somewhat annoyed.

" You guys shouldn't worry…go and find Odie…Neil should have released him from his shopping torture by now"

The young girl taped at her watch with her ring finger.

" Yay!"

Neil made his big entrance as always, prancing into the room with armfuls of shopping bags and assorted boxes. Archie chuckled, patting Odie on the back.

" Did the quest for the golden nail file go well?"

The black haired boy sighed, adjusting his glasses and putting his armful of packages on the ground ungracefully.

" He has millions in his room…and he said he couldn't use the one he dropped down in the sewer even if he washed it"

Archie and Herry smiled, knowing all to well that Neil was the only male out of their group who actually liked to shop for clothes and accessories. Odie rearranged his red jacket, walking up to Hera.

" So…is Theresa going to be alright?"

Atlanta sighed loudly, enough so anyone could pick up on the irritation in her voice.

" She's fine…just tired!"

The boys backed up, shrugging to themselves, joining Neil on the couch and sitting down on what space was left on the couch after he had put all of his purchases down.

A/N: Wow, I'd love to go shopping with Neil. I bet he's a great bargain hunter.
