Chapter 12 Oh My Ra!

Cleo POV

I watched a woman with no sense of fashion appear out of nowhere, that golden armor so didn't go with that soft flowing dress. What did Deuce call that thing a chiton I think. I sighed and turned to look at Deuce.

He seemed like he was nervous, his snakes were hissing wildly and like an animal. I grabbed him by the arm and looped mine with, his skin was clammy, and he looked like he was paling. But as I turned to look at her, she had this amused smile on her face. Which formed into a sneer to form on his face as he looked at her.

"Hello, cousin." I looked at Deuce as his snakes quite down for a moment as there focused eyes her. But Deuce didn't say a thing he just snarled as he jerked his head violently towards the exit.

"We were just leaving don't mind us." I stomped my foot in the gourd there was no way that he was going to ruin this for us and I growled wildly.

"There is no way in Ra that we are going to leave, we just got here, and I wanted to take pictures and stuff. No way Deuce we are not leaving." I knew that my voice sounded demanding because I could see the surprise and aggravated look on the woman's face.

She raised her eyes to browse as folder her arms and walked over to me, she made it seem like she owns this place.

"Of course, enjoy the Pantheon but not with him. He will leave." Who did she think that she is, I will destroy her before I will ruin this moment with my man and I refuse to let these people ruin it.

"If my man wants to be here with me then he will. We are going to take selfies and enjoy the sights and you aren't going to ruin a damn thing on our Ghouls day out."

I push her out of the way and dragged Deuce along with me. I could see him shudder like I had just done something wrong. But the women disappeared from our sight and he calmed down.

We were walking through the malls it had been hours after the Parthenon stuff and Deuce seem more relaxed and it forced a smile on my face.

As we walked down the hallway of the mall I wanted to get him a gift, but I didn't want him to know that I was getting him a gift. I looked at Deuce he was talking to some girl at the store counter in Greek. I tapped his shoulder lightly and looked intently at him.

He smiled at me and kissed my temples. "I'll be right back babe." He groaned at me, but he smiled. "Just remember that people here mostly speak Greek so use your Icoffins to translate." I nodded my head and smiled he was so sweet.

I walked away from the store until I saw what I was searching for, there was Clawd looking at one of the souvenir display he wanted to get something for his family. I ran over to him and that wasn't easy in heels let me tell you. I gave him one of my famous deserves smirks as he got this puppy dog expression going on.

"What do you want this time Cleo." I didn't like the way that he made it sound. Like I was always asking him for something. "I need your help tomorrow is Deuce birthday and I wanted to get him the perfect gift." I looked at him and his ear perked up when he found out that it wasn't something for me.

"Alright, then I am all yours what were you thinking about." I shrugged at shoulders and started to walk to the store with Clawd following after me. As we walked down the hallway I could feel Clawds eyes on I ignored him, I was going to keep walking when Clawd gripped my shoulder pulling me to a stop. "Here this is the place."

When I look up from his cute furry face and golden eyes I turned to see that there a shop with a board on the top of the door that said something in strange greek letters. I walked inside and I could understand why Clawed stopped me, it was an extreme sports shops and know all I had to do is figure out which board to get him.

I looked at one of the walls that were litter with skis boards and next to it a wall litter with different shapes and sizes of surfboards. I could hear rock music playing in the background this is the perfect, especially for Deuce. "What should we go with. A skateboard" I looked at Clawd and he smiled

"I would say the skate…" Before he could finish I was drawn to a black surfboard with a neon green cobra with its fangs bared and a red forked to hissing. It was perfect I just hope they he knew how to surf. I grabbed the board and placed it on the countertop.

"How are you going to hid that until tomorrow?" That was a good question how the hell was I going to get this back to the palace without Deuce seeing."That is a great question." I placed the bored done for a moment holding onto the handles of the surfboard cover. I smiled wide and ran my hand along the bored. He was going to love it.

"I'll take it back to the palace for you." I turned around to see that Poseidon was standing there his bright green eyes filled with joy. I wasn't too sure but Deuce told me that his dad was going to talk to Zeus. So I guess that he had the best interest in his heart.

"Here. Thank you so much can you could you put it in my room I wanted to surprise him tomorrow." He nodded his head this wide grin on his face as he took the bored and disappeared without a trace.

By the time that I and Clawd walked back to the food court where I agreed to meet up the other, they were already eating. Which was so rude they could have waited for us.

Deuce stood up this bright smile on his face as he walked up to me wrapping his arms around my waist. He tipped his head downed kissing me sweetly on the lips.

He kissed me gently and his breath tasted of a strawberry smoothie. When he pulled away there was this smile on his face that didn't look like it was falling from his lips ever again. "I order your favorite."

When I look down at one of the empty seats was a steaming plate of casketdillas and a croak a cola. I smiled at him, I pulled him into a small kiss and sat down tearing into my food the gooey cheese filling my mouth.

It was warm, and really hit the spot and when I looked up at Deuce he was smiling at me as Draculaura talked his ear off and Clawd laughed his ass off. The rest of lunch went by perfect I didn't think that this could get any better. By the time that we left the mall, the sun was starting to fade off slowly in the distance.

As we flew back to the palace I smiled resting my head on the back of Deuce shoulder taking in deep steady breaths of his colgan. It was perfect the setting sun lighting up the bright sky a gorgeous light pink it was like something out of a fairy tale.

When we landed me, and Deuce took a walk around Olympus while the others were at the palace. I could hear the sound of this sweet and peaceful melody but I couldn't tell where it was coming from. "One of Apollo's muses playing the harp. Clawsome isn't it."

His voice seemed so at peace, his voice was amazing in this silver moonlight streaming down on him. I wrapped my arm around him and smiled "This is heaven" I hear this amused laugh escape his lips. "Well yeah, that is what Olympus is."

I frown but he only laughed more and he pulled me into this garden, the thick black gate slamming shut behind us. It was amazing there were so many bright colorful flowers that I had never seen before. The smell of dew and pollen was in the air giving it this wonderful sweet smell. As we sat so I stared at the moon it was so big and I had never been so close to it before.

"Hey, Deuce." I heard him mumble in response as I felt a shiver slip down my spine. But Deuce just wrapped his arm around my shoulders and stared at the moon before taking his eyes away from it to stare at me.

As we made eyes contact I could feel my phone going off and I knew why. "Happy 16 birthdays baby." I kissed him as this smile formed on his face. This truly was the perfect day.
