Dealing with Drama

Hunting the Huntress: Part 1

AN: I think you can guess who is going to be next from the title itself.

Time: 2 Days Later

"Jackson."

Fuck.

"Yeah, Artemis?"

"What are you doing?" Percy sighed, not moving his eyes from the lazily moving clouds to take a proper look at the probably pissed off moon goddess.

"And what took you so long to come talk to me?" He knew he was just adding fuel to the inevitable fire, but he could not care less.

"Answer my question. What are you doing?" She hissed out the last part.

"I'm looking at the beautiful clouds. See?"

She gritted her teeth. "Don't play smart with me, Jackson. I know exactly what you are doing. You slept with my sister." She hissed at him, finally dropping to sit by his side.

The two of them were sitting at the edge of the dining room, from where it abruptly dropped off to the cleanly mown lawn. The open glass door allowed them access to the outside as Percy leaned against the dining table, stretching his legs out so that his bare feet could rub in the soft, green grass, cool and soothing to the soles of his feet.

"Well, you know the plan that Athena proposed. You supported it. Asteria came to me, and I complied with her wishes. It was her first time, and I won't sleep with her any more until... everyone has had their share."

Artemis gritted her teeth. "Shut up, Jackson."

"It's the truth." She just had to go and disturb his alone time, after not talking to him for the previous day. She had no idea how rare alone moments were, when you were the master of a harem of -now- twenty-five girls.

"So are you saying that if I want a fucking, I can just ask for it?!" Artemis hissed.

Percy smirked internally, managing to keep a cool face on the exterior. She had probably meant it in a bad sense, but she had no idea how correct she was. "Pretty much, yeah. Well, usually, you can have a date, too, but if you're that desperate....."

"I did not ask for your opinion." Artemis snarled from her position beside him.

Percy sighed. "Why are you being such a bitch, Artemis?"

"Why are you being such a dick? I have been waiting for ten months to spend some time with you, and my sister gets that on her first day here- heck, she got that on her first day as a female!" She ranted.

Percy sighed, looping his arm around her shoulder to draw her closer to him. "What's wrong, Artemis? You know you can tell me anything."

She protested weakly, but Percy's grip proved to be too strong for her to escape. Instead, she settled for her position uncomfortably close to him, practically touching their hips, as she glared up at him with bright silver eyes, resting her chin on his sternum.

"Don't you love me?" Her lip trembled.

Percy was quick to react. "Absolutely not, Artemis. I love my beautiful moon goddess."
