I woke up feeling drowsy, i seen my ceiling fan. Then looked over to see my sleeping brother, my eyes flicked to the clock. It was around 2:33AM, i groaned as i felt my neck. It burnt a bit, not as much as before though. I slowly slouched up, groaning as i turned my head to the moving doorknob. Ares with his newly cut red hair and brown eyes walked in.

"I see you're awake?" Ares shut the door silently, "Mhm..where is dad and mom?" i questioned. "They're downstairs currently cooking with Aphrodite."

"Ah, that explains why i thought i spelt smoke." "Smoke..oh dear, I'll go get your father." Ares quietly whispered enough for me to hear while walking out of the room.

A little while later my father came walking in, "Hey sweetie. Feeling any better?" my father said with a concerned face. "Yeah, don't worry-" I flinched grabbing at my neck a bit.

"Hurt?" "Yeah a little bit.." I sighed stressing my neck little as possible. "I'll go get come medicine, be right back." My father said creaking out of the dark room, i groaned and laid back.

"Wow, i can hear you groaning from downstairs, Ara." My brother Azrael appeared on the side of my wooden bed, "Jeeze Az tell me next time when you are coming in here."

"Yeah yeah, you wish." My brother chuckled, "Are we weird because we are more mature then four years old?" i started to question. "Nah, we're just smarter." Azrael sighed.

A knock on my door made me flinch up, "Come in." Azrael said for me. My father walked in with the medicine cup, it looked fine from where i could see. "Drink this." My father gave me, "If i gag it's your fault.." i sniffed it then pinched my nose looking up and swallowing it. After a minute i held my mouth, "Ara?" my brother and father said in sync. I started to gag, i stood up and ran outside into the bathroom. I ran past Aphrodite, her blonde-ish red-ish hair flashing beside my face, i could feel her ocean eyes flinching on me.

I ran into the bathroom and lifted to toilet lid throwing up, my mother walked in and started to rub my back. "It's okay baby.." I kept throwing up, Aphrodite moved the shower curtain out of the way. She started a bath then grabbed a cloth and handed it to my mother.

He washed off my mouth, soon my father came in with a cup of water and handed it to me. My throat was burning and sore.
