Gasp! What did you guys think about last chapter? Crazy right? You guys hate me yet (I hope not cause a lot of you guys read this.) I own some books and not this wonderful world Rick Riodran created (sadly) See you guys at the end!
When we walked into the mess hall, Ash was sitting at his cabin's table, so he could glare at the door. He saw me, his whole face lit, then he saw Joey next to me, back to glare. Siiigghhh. This, was going to be awkward. I followed Joey to the Hermes table and dropped down next to him. Double chocolate pancakes and super crispy bacon exploded onto my plate, Mountain Dew filled my goblet. Joey reached over for my bacon. I bit his fingers.
"Ow!" He cried, holding his hand. The table laughed. He glared at them and nibbled at his breakfast taco. I took a swig of Mountain Dew and launched into the conversation at hand, whether if the sky was purple, the sun would look different. By the end, it had turned into a shouting match, some of the other tables joining in.
"The sun would look the same even if the sky was magenta!" Ash finally screamed, shutting them all up. "It is already yellow so, it would be the same. Duh." He rolled his eyes and stomped out. I turned to Joey but he waved a hand. Smiling, I kissed his cheek and raced out. Ash was already at the stables, in Moon's stall, petting her silvery white fur.
"Hey." I called out softly. Ash turned to look at me. He looked sad and tired, almost washed out. "What's up with you?" I asked, stepping in farther. He sighed.
"Can we not Luna?" He muttered, more to Moon then me. You are such a girl. I rolled my eyes at him.
"Um no we can't. I want to know why you are all grrr and sad and just, not Ash." I demanded, my hands flying to my hips, one jutted out, I felt like my mother. He glanced back at me.
"Fine. You wanna know why I'm all grrr?" He snapped, whirling to face me. "Your boyfriend is why I'm mad Luna!" He growled, looking me dead in the eyes. "You've known him what, a month? Maybe. You've known me for years!" Ash threw up his hands, his eyes huge and filled to the brim with anger. "I've loved you longer then he has. Doesn't that count?" He asked softly, looking away. Well, shit. I ran a hand down my face and gave a deep, I'm in big trouble how the fuck do I get out of this one, sigh.
"Ash, I love you but, more as a my best friend way. Besides, I won't be dating Joey for much longer." I sighed, he looked up, hopeful. "No, not that reason." I shut that down quickly. "Mom is making me join her Hunt again." Ash whipped his head up.
"What?" He asked, in his sift whisper. I shrugged. "No, she can't do that!" He cried, slamming down his foot. "Make her change her mind!" He yelled at me. I glared at him.
"Do. Not. Yell. At. Me." I snarled, my voice low and warning. "I can't control her. You think I haven't tried? Do not throw a temper tantrum because I can't stay. That is childish." I snapped, my eyes glaring into him. His face turned red, he had his head ducked, like a child getting scolded.
"Sorry." He muttered to the straw floor.
"No, sorry doesn't cut it Ash. You've been acting like a total dick for a month because I'm hanging out with another guy! Holy Zeus is gets on my nerves! Then, you have the balls to yell at me to control my crazy goddess of a mother all because you want me to stay? All so you can just be mad at me? Uh, fuck no. I'm not doing that or, dealing with your attitude and jealousy anymore Ash. Talk to me when you stop being an asshole." I yelled, throwing my hands out and then storming away.
I stormed to my cabin and fell angrily onto my bed. Sometime later, Joey came in. He sat next to me and rubbed my back. "Luna?" He asked softly after a while. "You want to talk?" I shook my head. "Ya sure?" I nodded. A knock came at my door.
"If that is Ash or my mother, Joey, punch them in the face please." My voice was muffled by my pillow. Joey opened the door.
"I'm suppose to punch you, Luna told me too." Joey told whoever was at the door.
"Well can you not please?" Ash snorted. I rolled over to glare at him.
"Go away." I snapped. Joey came back and sat next to me. Ash's eyes narrowed for a second.
"I can't Luna. I don't want you to leave mad at me." He tried, looking at me with his big, brown eyes. I snorted.
"Say whatever you have to say Ash." I waved a hand.
"Look, I'm sorry if I've been a dick but, I haven't had to share you with another person before and it was hard at first." I glared at him, he made me sound like an ice cream cone! " I admit, I really don't like you dating Joey because, I've loved you longer." It was Joey's turn to glare at him. "But, I'm learning to accept that and move on. I really just want to be your friend Luna. Please?" He was doing that cow eye thingy again, it could make a rattlesnake back down. I shrugged.
"I guess we can be friends but, you can't try to break me and Joey up." I warned. Ash jumped up with a grin on his face. He hugged me and kinda glanced at Joey. "Okay well, you guys have some bonding time. I need to talk with Chiron." I got up and stretched. Joey started whining. "I don't want to hear it Joey, you guys need to learn to not kill each other." I told him. He crossed his arms. I looked at him with my puppy face. "Pleaaasee?" He sighed and kissed me. "Perfect!" I waved at them. "Have fun you two."
