Unlikely Ch.5
As I walked to the Aphrodite table, I noticed Greg and what was his name again? Oh, yes, Adam. They were both sitting at different tables, but talking across from them. Can you guess what I did?
Yeah, I gave Adam the middle finger. He saw it, alright, because he glared at me in disgust. I winked. I can be charming and evil, if you haven't noticed.
I swivelled onto an Aphrodite table bench, in-between Sara and Rikki. Rikki looked at me in wonder.
"Anthea, did you just do what I think you did?" she asked between giggles.
"Maybe." I said mysteriously, winking.
"Bad ass." Sara commented, smiling, as if I were her idol. I beamed.
"Thanks. So what's happened with you guys today?" I asked, trying to strike up conversation.
Rikki and Sara thought about it for a moment.
"Alexis and I got asked out by these adorable guys from the Apollo cabin. Told them we'd think about it." Rikki admitted.
I nodded, smiling. That was the Aphrodite girl way, I observed, play hard to get.
Sara was sniffling lightly. I turned to look at her, worried.
"What's wrong, Sara?" I asked sympathetically.
"Well, today, I lost my favourite lip gloss. Night Lite." She sobbed, opening her Gucci hand bag to reveal nothing in its golden interior.
"Poor girl, I'm so sorry." Rikki said, laying a hand on her half-sister's shoulder blade.
Wait. Night Lite? I swallowed down the rest of my food hastily, and sprinted to the Aphrodite cabin, to the girl's room. Finding my makeup drawer and thrusting it open, looking for the lip gloss compartment. I looked through the lip gloss. My Night Lite lip gloss was gone.
"ADAM." I muttered furiously.
Tell me I'm stupid, mess up my welcome party, but you can NEVER steal my lip gloss.
Just for extra measure, I looked into Sara's lip gloss compartment, and a label read Night Lite. No sparkly pink liquid bottles littered it. He was going to pay, big time.
That's when Rikki and Sara strode in.
"You guys," I beckoned them to come over to Sara's lip gloss drawer, "look at this." I murmured.
They both had confused looks printed on their faces. "Umm...Okay?" Rikki looked at me like I was crazy.
"Adam, aka the kid who ruined the party yesterday, stole our lip gloss." I said through gritted teeth.
Sara's face turned a blotchy angry red. "How. Dare. He!" she screamed. It echoed through the otherwise quiet room.
Rikki put on a devilish grin. "Girls, I think some revenge is in line." She said deviously.
Sara and I nodded, and the same smile marked our beautiful faces.
*2:30 AM, in the Aphrodite Cabin*
Sara, Rikki, and I stood in front of our cabin, clutching our Gucci bags. No, I'm not going to tell you what's in them, but you'll see, ha.
We were dressed in sequined camouflage outfits, and to the best of our abilities, stayed engulfed in the shadows. Finally, we made it to the front of the Athena cabin. Yuck, I hated it already. It was so..blah. Like that stupid Adam guy.
Being daughters of Aphrodite, we knew how to stay undetected. We had to be sneaky to meddle in people's love lives, right?
At long last, we reached Adam's bed. He lay breathing lightly, but obviously sound asleep.
Sara unzipped our bags, revealing a, special, type of makeup. I'm not telling you why it's so special. Yet. Rikki grabbed a lip gloss the shade of hot pink, and painted it on his lips carefully. I found black mascara and applied it onto his lashes, while Sara put a red blush onto his tan cheeks. I stifled a giggle. He looked ridiculous.
And for the finale, I grabbed a pair of HUGE pink hoop earrings, which were realistic clip ons. Yes, these were special too, stop asking me! But that wasn't it. For good measure, I took some fake blonde hair from the bag and clipped it onto his hair, and the hair sunk into his real hair, making it shoulder length. I then pulled out a tiny note that I had decided to put beside him when he saw himself. It read:
Dear Adam,
You make a really ugly girl.
Love,
Anthea
I stopped myself from chuckling like mad. Sara, Rikki, and I scurried out of the boring cabin, permanent smiles on our faces.
Adam really didn't know what he had got himself into.
*6:00, Aphrodite Cabin*
I woke with a start, a smile still plastered on my face. You're probably wondering why I woke up so early, and that I should be getting my beauty sleep. But really, this face doesn't need it.
So the real reason I was up so early was to see Adam's reaction to the makeup. I wasn't missing that moment, no way. Not even a million pairs of Gucci shoes could make me do otherwise.
I put on a lime green Abercrombie and Fitch t-shirt paired with hot pink and lime green plaid shorts. I slipped on an emerald green silk headband, with an emerald stone ring. Hot pink flip flops with emeralds encrusted on the front were my choice of shoe.
I hastily applied mascara, light pink eye shadow, and light pink lip gloss. When I was done, I crept out of the girl's room, careful not to wake my half-siblings. I swung the front door open, and strode out of my cabin, to Athena's.
When I scurried over to the carved white window, an alarm clock woke up a disoriented Adam. He jumped up, rubbing his eyes, which didn't affect the makeup.
Then he began to stumble sleepily to a tiny mirror in the corner of the cabin.
DRUMROLL!!!!!!!!
When he made it there, I thought he would have a heart attack. His eyes widened, and he screamed, waking up his cabin.
They all just moaned and went back to sleeping.
The next thing he tried was rubbing the makeup away with a cloth. It didn't work. Okay, now you know what makeup this is. Long-lasting makeup. Don't ask me how Rikki got it, because I have no clue. But I was ready to go into endless fits of laughter right now, so I didn't care.
He froze, afraid about how he would get the stuff off. I stifled my laughter.
Finally, he noticed the note I had left him. He read it hastily, eyes shining with menacing fire.
"Anthea!" he screamed, it echoed across the cluttered room, bouncing this way and that.
I couldn't help it, everything just happened so quickly. I burst out into chuckles, clutching my sides.
That's what he get's for messing with me.
*Adam's POV*
That's it. This time she had gone too far. I had to play my last and final card. Getting the Hecate cabin on my side.
