Persephone's POV

"Are you guy's done?" I asked.

This was getting out of hand. Hestia was jumping up and down and Artemis was spraying everything with silly string and shooting out confetti with a confetti gun, and the music's volume was on way too loud-even for an immortal. As for Athena, she had noise filtering headphones and was tucked away in a corner reading a book.

I rolled my eyes and strolled over to the stereo, making sure I didn't step on any of the glass, ice cream, or unidentifiable junk that Artemis and Hestia produced in their "small" bout of joy. I finally reached the stereo, which was a feat in it's own since Artemis was shooting at anything that was living or not. I had to occasionally duck which meant that I fell not once, not twice, but three times before I could successfully yank out the cord from the outlet. Hestia stopped jumping and Artemis stopped shooting confetti.

"Hey, what happened to the music?" Artemis asked. Hestia shrugged her shoulders and looked at Athena, who pointed over at my direction without looking up from her book.

"You guys can't be trusted with a simple announcement, can you?" I asked , still holding the cord. Hestia shrugged.

"Come on, it's not everyday our little Persephone falls in love with THE Hades, god of THE underworld, and of THE Cerberus." Artemis said casually, while sitting on one of the beanbag chairs and flipping through Athena's TV.

"I don't love him. I think I just might like him." I crossed my arms.

"And I think I just might like walnuts. Persephone, like and love are totally different. For example, I like hearths, Athena likes books, and Artemis likes archery. Now loving someone is a totally different matter, one that you yourself has chosen to do." Hestia said.

"Says a person who hasn't had the time to love nor like because of a hearth." Athena said.

"Hey, tending a hearth is very serious business. It has to be done with the utmost-"

"Or maybe it's because you're drawn to Hephaestus." Artemis sang.

All eyes were on her as she began to turn red.

"So...what makes you feel attracted to him?" Athena finally asked. Hestia's eyes clouded over.

"He makes me feel...like I actually matter. The other gods I've met are so keen on thinking that I'm untouchable and weak, they often ignore me and it makes me feel as if I'm not as special as you guys. Athena has a city named after her, Artemis is revered as the "protector of maidens", and Persephone, heh, you're in love. And even though Hephaestus takes the time to let me know that I'm important, he doesn't seem to want to let go of Aphrodite." Hestia looked away and sighed.

No, not like this. I thought and walked over to her.

"So what? Are you just going to sit back and let that pesky love bug get in the way of a relationship?"

"But..but I'm of one of the virgin goddesses." She stammered.

"Have you ever heard of a platonic relationship?"

She stared at me. I sighed.

"Athena, please explain."

"A platonic relationship is a pure, spiritual affection subsisting between persons of opposite sex, unmixed with carnal desires and regarding the mind only and it's excellences." She said and kept on reading her book.

"Well that just explains EVERYTHING!" Hestia said sarcastically. I smiled.

"What she means is that a platonic relationship involves only love, not the process of love, dumb dumb." I rolled my eyes.

"But I still don't get it." Artemis piped up. She was standing at the doorway with the door slightly opened.

"What don't you get?" I asked.

"Well there's this kid out here saying that Athena is supposed to be his mother but Gaea had him instead. Now what I don't get is why Athena never told us this." She said and opened the doorway to reveal a small 6-year-old. We all turned our heads towards Athena. Her eyes widened like as she stood up... and fainted. Artemis snorted as we ran towards her but before we could reach her however, an old woman suddenly appeared out of nowhere and bent over her. We all screamed. Well, Hestia screamed, Athena roared, and I just gasped.

"Tsk, tsk this will never do. And here I thought you would be more mature about this." The old woman said. Artemis looked at her closely and when I mean closely, I mean, poking her. After a minute of doing this, she stood up.

"Holy chutes and ladders, it's Gaea." Artemis said and bowed. The old woman turned around.

"No, no, no, no. Never bow to me, little one, never. It is I who should be bowing down to you."

"But you....all the stories-"

"-Are true but I'm so tired and the recent pregnancy has left me a little...moody. Fine, fine bow to me, after all, I do deserve the attention, don't I?" She said and batted her eyelashes.

"...." We all looked at each other.

"Sorry, sorry. I guess this is what happens when you have a 6 million year old pregnancy." She then began to lift Athena's arms up and let them fall to the floor with a thump.

"One of you should bring me some cold water and a mop." She ordered and sat down near a nearby couch. We all stood frozen and she snapped.

"Well? Go on before I sic one of my plants on you!" Artemis and I ran toward the kitchen whilst Hera stayed with Gaea.

"How the hell did Athena get a kid?" Artemis asked when we finally reached the kitchen.

"Jealous?"

"Sure, why not?"

I snorted.

"What?"

"Come on, you really want a kid?"

"Yup."

"Do you realize the work put in to caring for one?"

"Yup."

"And you're sure you want one?"

"Yup."

"Adopt one of Zeus's kids then." I smiled.

"Fine."

I blanched at the thought of getting chased by one of her adopted daughters or sons with a bow and arrow. Artemis was filling a pitcher of water.

"On second thought, maybe you shouldn't."

"Why not?" She whirled around to face me, slamming the pitcher down.

"Cuz, you're just saying you want a kid because Athena has one. It's some sort of maternal instinct we all get or something like that."

"My hormones are fine." I rolled my eyes.

"Sure." Artemis gave me the pitcher, literally dropping it into my arms.

"Thanks." I gasped and began hauling it towards the living room. Artemis laughed.

"Heavy?"

"Just you wait, Arty, I'll get you back somehow." I grunted good naturally.

"Will it involve some sort of child?"

"You wish."

We finally reached the hallway near the living room when Artemis stopped.

"What the-

"Shh." She put a finger over her lips and put her ear to the wall.

"-he was still very young and you know what happens to males that age, right? Well, it just so happens that all he wanted to do was hug her because they are family after all and he has too much honor to do such a thing to her. It just so happens that puberty hit but it was purely accidental. She wiped it off with some cloth and threw it on me, which made me pregnant. She forgave him for that you know.-" Blah blah blah blah.

I moved my ear away from the wall.

"Artemis?"

"What?"

"What are they talking about?"

"I think they're talking about how Hephaestus-" She paused and looked at my innocent face.

"Never mind."

"O-kay."

We resumed listening in. My arms suddenly hurt from holding the pitcher.

"Artemis."

"Wwwhhhaaattt?"

"I'M TIRED OF HOLDING THIS COLD PITCHER!"

"Alright, alright. Give it to me." She hissed.

"Gladly."

"You can come out now." Gaea said. Artemis gave me "the look" and walked toward a couch. I lugged the stupid jug over to Athena. Athena's "son" was on the floor, playing around with some of Athena's hair. This time I took the time to look at him closely; even with the jug of water in my hands. He had the same midnight hair as Athena and her skin too. Plus you could feel the know-it-all attitude that Athena herself reeked of. Heck, you could say that they looked identical; almost. I could keep on going but, the temptation to dump water on Athena was far too great than describing the little guy. It took a few seconds for Athena to scream though.

"Mommy!"

"AHH!!! Kids, kids everywhere!" Athena screamed and sat up quickly. I chuckled and turned her head towards her son.

"Mommy?" He said in the most adorablest (lol, is that even a word?) voice.

Athena screamed again. The little boy began to cry and Gaia just...sat there with a flower teacup in one hand.

Ha, this would have been funny if only my ears weren't being destroyed by Athena's screams and the little boy's sobbing. I leaned back and put on Athena's discarded headphones and sighed.

Yup, best day ever.
