Chapter 5: And Hey Full of Dead People...
"So uh... I guess we should have a little chat while the boys go and get your space set up. After all you're gonna be stayin here for a while, no sense in not getting comfy." Hades quipped.
What exactly are you gonna let me get away with.
"Right," Rose smirked. "So!" She said jumping into the conversation. "What is your deal with Uncle Zeus and Olympus?"
Hades blinked. Straight to the point, isn't she...
"Nothin really. Big Bro just decided by himself that since he was older he should get to be ruler of the cosmos. I mean, hey, look at me! I order the whole Underworld, taking care or judgment, making sure the paper works in order, making sure the yutzes stay in line down here, and I don't even get a secretary! He doesn't do any of this and gets to like on a cushy cloud with a view! He wonders why I don't get any sun? I'm to busy to get out and I have NO vacation time! It's not fair!" Hades finally erupted.
Don't even want to mention the whole no girlfriend thing.
Rose stayed quite for a few moments regarding him with her emerald eyes.
"That doesn't sound like nothing." She grinned.
"..." Hades didn't speak up. He new he had just made his life a whole lot harder.
"Of course, you are right" Rose said thoughtfully.
"wha'chu say?" Hades gaped. No one ever agrees with me...
"I can see why you are so...determined."
\ "Feh" Hades puffed out waving away her comment. "Anyways how are you and Zeus related? Never saw you at any of the parties..."
"Oh, that. My family was friendly with the Titans for a long time. So when Zeus was born and hidden away, he and my mom would play together a lot. The people in my family live for a long time so keeping up with Gods is normal. So while I was growing up Zeus was a pretty constant person in my life. Unfortunately my mother...died when I was 5 years old. But by that point I had already known Zeus by the title "Uncle Zeus" for five years so it kinda stuck. So...yeah."
Crap I didn't mean to pry that deep...
"My bad. I didn't mean to pry."
"No prob. It's all ancient history."
"How old are you anyway? 15? 16?"
"Now Hades," Rose giggled. " Didn't anyone every tell you not to ask as girl her age?"
"Come on. Humor me!"
"Uh...Well..." She said rubbing the back of her neck.
"Come on. I swear I wont tell. Trust me." Hades leered.
"Sweet heart that smile's not helpin your cause here..." Rose quipped. "Anyways I guess I can tell you."
"So? What are you? I bet you're 16." He grinned.
"You'd loose." Rose laughed.
"Quit stallin girly."
"Maybe another time..."
*Sigh on Hades part
"Um Lord Hades...?" Piped up Pain. "The rooms ready."
"We'll just have to continue this later." Hades said.
"Maybe..." Rose grinned. " If your lucky..."
For some reason I think this relationship is gonna go just peachy...
