Thalia's POV
I grabbed my things and we all went to a late night diner and sat down, placing our orders as we talked about the show. As we did, I multitasked as I tapped the buttons on my phone and started posting the group photos of my dancers, the foster kids, and my soulmates. As soon as I did, my phone started vibrating as everyone began to drop comments. I smiled at all the sweet comments about my little buddies.
"I mean I was shocked when none of you recognized Bumblebee on stage for "Meant to Be" I laughed. "I mean the whole thing was about me and my car and going for a ride!" I pointed out as everyone shook their heads looking ashamed with themselves. "Seriously, I was surprised none of you recognized him!"
"What can I get for you to drink?" Asked the waiter.
"I'll take a cranberry vodka!" I said happily. I saw Alex and Kara glaring at me.
"Oh stop glaring at me! You'll get frown lines!" I said as the others placed their drink orders as well.
"I gotta say, I think my favorite part of all of this was watching you all tell me you loved each other's songs! Like Clark, you loved the song I wrote for Mon-El "Highs and Lows" and Mon-El you said one of your favorites was "Defying Gravity" which was one of the Superman themed songs!" I said as I giggled at the expressions on everyone's faces as they all thought back to when they had listed their favorites.
"And Alex I'm so happy you enjoyed the songs I dedicated to you, but Kara what about you? Um...did...did you like yours?" I asked, shifting uncomfortably as I waited to see if she had approved.
"Are you kidding, Thalia? They were amazing!" Kara said grinning at me.
"I liked, "God is a Woman" a lot!" Said Hal. I smiled at him as everyone nodded.
"Well it felt weird writing songs themed around Thunderbolt but I didn't want anyone to start asking why I had left her out of the show since I had all the other superheroes involved. Plus it was kind of my way of handling the news of my prophecy to become either the destroyer or savior of the world, and ya know...I am a god..." I finished as I winked at everyone and flipped my hair over my shoulder.
"I loved how you kept the Cinderella theme going throughout most of the show!" Barry said. I smiled at him.
"Thanks! Barry! My dancers actually really enjoyed coming up with the prince costumes for all of you! They spent ages deciding what each one should look like and I'm sure I'll find a way to incorporate them into my next shows," I said as our drinks arrived and I sipped happily on mine. "Mmm...not as good as the ones you make me, Mon-El," I said, my soulmate bond with him letting me know just how pleased he was at that statement.
"So...Oliver...what did you...what did you think of "Lost Boy"?" I asked nervously. The guy always seemed so closed off but he had told me about the several years he had spent lost on Lian Yu and the imagination fairies had just gone crazy when I was writing most of this latest albums.
"I loved it, Thalia. It was perfect," he said with a soft smile. Well, I guess that was a start. I really wished he would open up to me - and smile more! He always seemed so serious.
"So...you sure shared a lot in the beginning of the show..." Arthur said. I felt the others tense as they caught onto what he was referring to.
"Yeah...well...I guess I had a lot to get off my chest. Oh, and I'm sorry about that incident in my dressing room. But I doubt Dylan or his father will be bothering me again. Which will be nice. What with Ben and George out of the way as well I might finally not be broke!" I said excitedly as our food arrived. I quickly stole some of Barry's fries giving him a kiss on the cheek to say thank you, grinning as he blushed red.
"What do you mean, you won't be broke? Isn't Cinderella worth quite a bit?" Bruce asked. I nodded as I swallowed my fries.
"Yes, but I didn't know any better when I signed my contract with Dylan's father. There was a loophole in it that allowed him to steal pretty much all of my earnings, I hate to admit it but most of the money I used to purchase my house was money from all the charity performances I did. So I guess it turned out for the best that it now belongs to the dancers and my little buddies!" I said as everyone stared at me in shock.
"Oh don't give me those looks, I was used to it by then, Ben and George have been draining my bank account since I first had one, besides apparently I don't even need food and drink to survive as a goddess my body doesn't actually need any of that to survive so I should be fine. Besides, like I said now that all the money sucking leeches are out of my life I should finally start being able to save," I said with a shrug.
We were about halfway through our meals when there was a sudden shower of golden sparkles above my head and a gift wrapped box was dropped on the table in front of me. It had four Greek symbols on it and I smiled.
"Thanks!" I said up to the sky as I tore open the wrapping paper. I gasped as I pulled out a beautiful golden crown. I rolled my eyes. "Real subtle guys!" I shouted to the ceiling.
"Um, what's that about?" Clark asked, raising his brow.
"Oh, um, just a birthday present no biggie," I said shrugging.
"Oh my gawd! It's your birthday?!" Kara shrieked bouncing out of her seat. I giggled. "Yeah! It's another reason why I planned the show for today specifically. I haven't had the best birthday's in the past but I wanted this one to be special," I said blushing as Alex and Kara shoved the boys out of the way so they could hug me.
"Why didn't you say anything earlier?!" Alex asked after everyone had wished me a happy birthday and we had ordered desert.
"Well I mean my whole plan was to get you to go to the concert and if I had told you it was my birthday there was no way you would have gone without me ruining the surprise. I wasn't exactly planning on having Dylan spoil the Cinderella reveal but oh well." I said.
The rest of the night was amazing. Kara and Alex actually let me order two more cranberry vodkas since it was birthday and by the end of it I was feeling pleasantly buzzed. My soulmates smiled as we climbed into Bumblebee and I let him drive us back to Kara's apartment. Alex and Kara headed up first, letting my soulmates and I have some privacy as they all grinned at me.
"Wha-whats with...why are you all staring at me like that?" I slurred a bit as I tried to sit up in my seat.
"Well, it's your birthday sweetheart, which means birthday kisses!" Clark said grinning at me as he swept me up into his arms. I giggled but blushed. It was still taking some getting used to; having so many soulmates. But I was happier than I had ever been so I wasn't complaining.
