Her warm, rare smile, her chocolate hair, and her honey brown eyes. She was holding a blue bundle in her arms and then she passed the bundle to him. He took a look inside and saw a baby. Their baby. Blonde hair, his blonde hair, honey brown eyes, her honey brown eyes, his pointed nonose, and her fair skin. Then he started to shake and Hera yelled his name,"Hermes! Hermes! "

"Hermes!" he woke with a jolt. Hera had been shaking him awake, terrified, but why terrified?

"Hermes! It's Zeus! He's on his way! What were you thinking of falling asleep here ! Of all the places! Go! Run!"

One question answered, he stood up and looked out the window that overlooked the back of their temple. He saw nobody so he jumped out through there. Once outside, he booked it. He ran for the hills all the way to his own temple.

He slammed the door shut behind him, he was panting, and he slid down the door so he was sitting on the floor back to it.

"Well, that was interesting," a familiar voice called out. It was a high, arrogant voice, he loathed the owner of the voice.

"Aphrodite, how did you get in here?"

She walked out of the shadows, blonde hair, blue eyes, fair skin, and showy red dress,"The back. You should really learn to lock your doors."

You're right, that way roaches will stop getting in," he snarled. His own blue eyes glared back to hers.

She pouted, "Hermes, that wasn't very nice. Either way, I just want to see what's going with you and Hera."

He eyed her," What do you mean?"

"Oh, darling! Coincidentally, everytime you're in the mortal world she leaves for business. Every time I see you, you're always around each other, and I justsaw you run out of Zeus and Hera's temple. Tell me, Hermes. You haven't been ravishing the wife of Zeus, have you?" she pried.

He clenched his fists and replied,"The only ravishing going I know of is of you and Ares. And if I must say more, every other god on Olympus. Now get out, I just mopped!"

She huffed angrily,"I know something is up with you and that old hag! When I find out what it is, you'll regret you ever crossed my path!"

"Whatever, go play with yourself now."

She huffed and she stomped out of his temple leaving the scent of roses behind. Hermes rolled his eyes, it was easy to offend her. But what she said worried him, Aphrodite would obviously be the first to find out, but she was a gossipper. If she were to say one word it'd spread quickly and in to time Zeus would find out.

He didn't think he'd look good as a roasted Hermes.

~oOo~

Hera sat on her bed trying to calm herself down. She'd walked into the bedroom to find Hermes sleeping. He looked cute, his nose would twitch every now and then, he was drooling a bit but he was smiling. She wondered what it was he was dreaming to make him smile that way.

She heard the door open,"Hera!?"

She walked out of the bedroom and ran into Zeus out in the hallway. But he was in a position she'd prefer him not to be in. His hair grey blonde hair was wild, and his stormy blue eyes seemed dull. He smelled of alcohol. He was drunk.

"Where were you?" she cried out. Instead of an answer he just kissed her. It was a passionate kiss, but to her it was suffocating. The smell of alcohol was overwhelming. She pushed him away and he glared at her.

"Zeus, no. You're drunk."

She slipped passed him towards the doorway,"I'll see you when you're sober."

She didn't open the door. He'd grabbed her arm so harshly he bruised it and pulled her to him so they were nose to nose,"I do what I want, bitch."

He kissed her and groped her, it reminded her of that night, all those years ago. She was reliving her most hated memory.
