Blood Wars

I don't have a clue

[ Bellona - Jennie ]

"I mean no disrespect Bellona, but I don't really fit in with the people you have called today" Taeyong says while looking at Irene with a slight blush

Irene grins as Chaeyoung snorts 

"Oh please- we all share one thing in common."

I look up at her with a raised eyebrow

"I know exactly whats going on here. Think guys- the goddess of love and beauty? the god of wisdom and truth? her best friend?" Chaeyoung reels off adding emphasis on their roles

Shit

"She's obviously in love" She finishes rolling her eyes

Irene drops her makeup brush as she stares at me wide eyed

"No fucking way?"

Taeyong nods his head and gives a small clap to me as he smiles warmly

"It's taken you a while- but these feelings have been there for some time- they were just buried underneath your hatred and past"

My eyes widen as he says that, and so do his as he disappears into fog

"Hatred? Oh no. Don't tell me-" Chaeyoung whines

"You've fallen for Eros?!" Irene shouts, shaking my shoulders

"Of course not! I-I just wanted to get some sort of explination as to why my chest feels tight- also I need a water soother" I remember

Chaeyoung eyes me as she brews up the potion

"Nightmares?"

"Memories during my sleep with lead to vivid hallutionations when I awake for all around 10 seconds"

Irene rolls her eyes and picks her brush up off the floor

"Basically nightmares"

I sigh and drop my head in my hands

"I'm fucked up" I mutter

I hear a glass touch the wooden table and a bit of shuffling as Chaeyoung sits next to me

"Look, I can guess what your on about, but just in case- it's fine to be in love with someone. I know Hector hit hard, and it obviously is doing you some confusion to love someone who you swore to hate for eternity. But sometimes fate has a way of making things pan out. Also- nightmares or sleep memories sound like something that can be cured with a session with Krystal unni"

I sigh and lean my head on her shoulder

"I don't think I'm ready for any of it"

This morning was strange- I think I did it right, but it made my chest hurt but calmer at the same time

"Please, your the most prepared woman I know. If you love the Hellene you love the Hellene, nothing wrong with admitting that. Plus- all we've done is follow in our father's footsteps - same with the Greeks but you should tell yourself, except for Ares and Athena, why are you really fighting the rest of them?"

I sigh and nod at Irene

"I don't have a clue"

"Exactly- so call up the Hellene and speak with her" Chaeyoung says

"I don't have her information" I say with a slight pout

"Then ask Lucas to help out"

I sigh and nod my head again as Irene plays with my cheeks

"Your cute.  I've never really noticed but you really are adorable. And your face is almost symmetrical too"

I pull away from her fingers and frown

"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder"

"If your trying to say your not pretty I will launch this table at you" Irene threatens

Before I go to answer my phone rings loudly

"Must be either Lucas or Shownu"

I pick up the phone, not bothering to check the name before hand

"Yes?" I say with slight attitude

I'm kind of busy

"Erm- H-hi? It's Eros- or Lisa! Yo-you can call me Lisa . I-If you want of course"

"What's wrong Lisa?" I ask in a flat-line voice

"Well you see, I was wondering if you could let me come over today? I-I finish work in like 10 seconds and- Hey! Don't touch that arrow! No it's not a toy! I don't care what your son's name is this thing is not a damn toy!" Eros curses

I put the call on loudspeaker so that Chaeyoung and Irene can hear it too

"He looks like he was freshly born! You should be ashamed for allowing him to touch weapon at such a young age"

"Why do I even have them? Do you know who the hell I am? Im the person that can make you husband fall for another woman that's who you Karen! Now screw off I'm busy"

We laugh silently at the exchange between whoever and Lisa before Lisa picks the phone back up

"Okay yeah so I was wondering if I could?"

"Sure, I'll be home all day" I say ignoring Chaeyoungs smirk

"o-Oh cool yeah-cool"

I roll my eyes at her repetitive words and go to hang up when she speaks again

"O-oh and about earlier" She starts, voice getting quieter as I'm guessing she blushes or something to that effect

"Y-you were doing it right, but for a less seductive approach? Try not to rub my stomach again" She says before hanging up

I sit there and take in the silence before it get fucking loud

"A what?! You did fucking what?!" both Irene and Chaeyoung scream

I get up and head to my cigar box, taking out an older looking one and clipping the bottom off

"It was just a er-what's the word called?" I try to think

"Quickie?" Chaeyoung offers

"One night stand?" Irene questions

I snort as I light the cigar and put it to my mouth

"Oh please, I've had plenty of both to know it wasn't that" I say before taking a puff of the sweet stick

The smoke surrounds my face before spreading across the room- and I ignore Irene's consistent spraying after

"A back hug!" I say, finally getting it

They both blink at me before it sets in

"You gave her a hug?" They ask, a lot quieter than before

Shit

"I haven't even gotten a hug from you! And we've been friends for aeons! Centuries even!" Chaeyoung rants, eyes turning a faint blue as she does

I look up at the sign in my house that says no water spillages and grumble under my breath as I go over to Chaeyoung and hug her

"I apologise. I'm stubborn and slightly passive. I didn't know that hugs were a fundamental requirement of any relationship"

Chaeyoung sighs as she hugs me back

"They're not - but once in a while they are appreciated. "

"Yeah just don't go giving us hugs that you would give to Lisa. I don't need you grinding on me as hot as that would be" Irene says with a smirk

"I guess we're not going to any parties or clubs together then" I joke as Chaeyoung hugs tighter

This is taking way too long

"Let go" I say tapping her back

"No fucking way. This is our first hug in centuries. I'm staying here till your wife arrives"

"We're not married- let alone dating"

"Yet" Irene chimes in
