Author's Note: Uhm yeah. Sorry for the long hiatus! I made this story long because of what I did in the last chapter. It was short, right? Oh, and probably, I was inspired in this story because I'm reading the Percy Jackson series. You might as well encounter some gods here (but not literally). I'm still in book one so, yeah. Uh, enjoy!

Chapter 6: Mythology at Its Finest

Afuro Terumi was not the type of person you expected him to be.

Terumi, or most preferably called Aphrodi is your co-teacher in the school you're working in, Kidokawa Seishuu. Okay, I stand corrected. He really isn't a teacher but the coach of the school's soccer team. He's a teacher because he basically substitutes sick teachers or teachers on leave. He's almost good in anything: he is handsome, intelligent and athletic. He's one hell of a person! Aphrodi mostly excels in Literature and has an unending love for mythology. Ask him anything about gods and goddesses and he will surely give you a truthful answer.

You once asked him something you surely know because you wanted to test him.

"Who killed the serpent-haired Medusa?"

Aphrodi grinned. "Easy. Perseus, duh! Release the Kraken!" He shouted inside the faculty room, making all the teachers look at him weirdly.

"I'm sorry!" He said and turned back to you. "Now you got me in trouble."

"Well, who told you to shout your answer? Your mythology hormones are active again, Terumi."

"I told you," he said. "You should call me Aphrodi!"

You chuckled silently. "Terumi sounds better."

After the both of you finished arguing, you called it a day. The students started leaving the school and some of the teachers decided to go home. Aphrodi went to the soccer field to deal with his job as a coach. You simply stayed in the faculty room and checked some of the quizzes of your students. Oh, I forgot to tell you. You are an English teacher so, some of the students' grammar gave you a headache. As soon as you finished checking the papers, you quickly grabbed the book you were reading since yesterday. Whatever book that is, you simply loved it. You love books. Maybe that was the reason why you're an English teacher.

After you've finished reading that book, you decided to go to the library. 'Wait, it's closed already.' You thought. So, you decided to go home but you planned to pass by the field to check on the team.

Or will you really check on the team?

As you were walking, you saw no one playing in the field so you concluded that they were finished. You kept on walking and walking and walking until someone summoned you from behind.

"[f/n]!" A familiar voice called.

You said, "Alas! Oh, Terumi."

"Wow," he chuckled. "You waited for me!"

"H-hey, I did not!" You met his shining red eyes and for some reason a blush formed on your smooth cheeks. You looked away but he was still staring and smiling at you.

'Goddamn it! He's...handsome.' You thought.

"I'm home!" You shouted so that your 28-year old brother, [l/n] could hear you.

"Yo, [f/n]," he called as he stood by the doorway. "How's work?"

"It's fine, Nii-san, how 'bout yours?" You replied, removing your 2 inch-high heels and putting it back in the shoe cabinet.

"Great. I've got some good news."

"Spill the beans."

"I have a girlfriend."

You swiftly shifted your gaze to your somewhat hopeless brother. He hasn't had any girlfriends since he was 26 years old. You were his 'love advisor'. You told him everything you know about courting and such, since you always encounter courting activities in school. No wonder you know something.

"R-really? I'm happy for you, Nii-san!"

"And you know, you should get a boyfriend."

Upon hearing what your brother just told you, you quickly gave him a soft punch.

You see, you are 24 years old. 24 years of existence and no boyfriend since birth. You had many suitors before but you always turn them down and your reason was: "I'm too young to have a boyfriend" even though you are a young adult.

"I just have many things to do. I'm not going to waste my time in those useless things." You said to your brother who was grinning at that time.

"Well, if that's your decision, so be it." He said. "Dinner's ready."

It was late in the morning. You were hanging out inside the faculty room with another book since you don't have anything to finish. Your next class is at one-o'clock, right after lunch break. Aphrodi, on the other hand, substitutes the Physical Education classes of the second years because their teacher was on leave.

You sighed. You're bored. You thought of the blondie.

'If only he likes me.' You said to your conscience. 'I am an idiot, am I?'

"There's no way that I can fall in love with him! He's not my type!"

So, simply put, you like Aphrodi. That god.

The day ended again and as usual, you hang out with the blondie in a nearby café.

And there you wished that he likes you too.

It was Saturday. You had nothing to do inside your house so you decided to go to the national library where you can find your paradise.

You arrived at the library. You were scanning the books in almost all the sections but there you were in your favorite section: fiction.

Hours have passed. You were astonished to see all the fictitious books you have and have not read. As you passed by the literature section, you saw a familiar figure.

Very familiar.

"Terumi?" You softly called.

Aphrodi turned his attention to you. "Oh, hi [f/n]!" You were curious on what he's looking on, so you moved to his direction. You glanced up and saw a sign which says: 'Mythology.'

"I should've expected this." You said.

"What? I don't get it," he said. "You expected me to be here?"

"Nope. You are in the mythology section and somehow I was curious on what you're searching for."

Aphrodi raised an eyebrow. You looked away, embarrassed.

"Aphrodite."

You fixed your gaze on him. This time, it's your turn to raise your eyebrow.

"Aphrodite is the goddess of beauty and love. She's beautiful in a way, uhm, very beautiful. She's married to Ares, the god of war."

"U-uh, Terumi? I know that."

"Yes, you know that. That's basic knowledge. But there's something you don't know."

You gulped. 'What's he going to say?'

He dropped the book he was holding and swept his hands on your soft [h/c] hair. "You are my Aphrodite. I-I…I love you, [f/n]."

Your beautiful eyes widened. "Y-you love me?"

'And you know, you should get a boyfriend.' You recalled your brother's words.

He smiled.

He quickly put his lips into yours and pushed your head closer to intensify the kiss. He kissed you in the library. Good thing no one was looking.

Maybe this is the one.

You parted when you ran out of air.

"I love you too, Aphrodi, my Ares." You placed your hands around his torso, giving him a hug.

"Should we start making a godly family?" Aphrodi chuckled, seemingly joking about his statement.

"Not until we're married!" Then, you kissed again.

So, I came up with a conclusion that you're now married to the sweetest guy who loves mythology more than anything, and you, of course. You never expected him to be like that, don't you?

By the way, I'm calling you "Afuro [f/n]." Teehee.

A/N: That's it! I hope you had a wonderful time reading this. Please leave a review please!
