The flight to Athens isn't long at all, in fact we barely sat down before we were landing in Greece from Turkey.
"I didn't even have time to drink that second bottle of wine" Thea moans as we step onto the bus that transfers us from the plane to the airport arrivals.
As the bus jerks forward Thea goes flying into the lap of a very handsome looking Greek man who smiles the most charming smile, his white teeth looking perfectly bright against his tanned skin and jet black hair.
"Hello... ómorfe"she purrs.
Calliope and I reach forward and each take an arm pulling her off of him "sorry about that" Callie excuses as we move away and down the bus slightly, holding on to the pole beside us and trying to keep Thea vertical.
"Thea, a friendly reminder from your baby sister" I say leaning in to whisper "you are married"
She nods and looks at me like I'm insane, her eyes rolling up "I'm quite aware Theodora"
Demitra who has been on her phone the entire ride over to the terminal looks up and frowns "why are you both holding Thea like she's on prison transport and you're her burly guards" she asks sarcastically.
Callie and I look to each other over Thea "this is going to be a long pilgrimage Callie" I whisper dramatically.
"I'm sharing with you" she says "promise me Teddy" she begs, looking panicked and wide eyed.
"Calliope, we are the sane ones. I don't want to be worrying about what Thea or Demitra are up to when I can be staying with my older and wiser big sister, who by the way has a lot to tell me about her boyfriend" I say with a grin.
Callie smiles to think of him "oh Teddy I can't wait to tell you everything" she says excitedly.

When we get to the hotel Calliope and I run ahead and grab the keys, throwing Demitra and Thea theirs as we run in the opposite direction "I think we lost them" i observe behind me breathlessly, slowing down.
"Not for long, their room number was next to ours" Callie informs me.
I slump against the wall disappointedly as Callie puts the key in the door and pushes it open.
"Ooh this is fancy" Callie notes.
I follow her in, the room was very white, there were fresh and clean twin beds made up and a nice smart TV on the wall, with some Greek paintings adorning the walls around the room.
There was a lovely shower and spa bath in the adjoining bathroom I note as I walk through and throw open the doors to the balcony. I step out, to the sounds of crickets chirping down below in the gardens, and the sun going down and dipping into the horizon. I turn to my left and almost jump out of my skin to find Thea already sat on the adjoining balcony with a wine glass in hand "howdy neighbour" she greets, raising her glass.
Callie steps out beside me "told you" she says with a laugh.
I shake my head "this is truly going to be a trip to remember Cal. I can't get away from any of you for more than two seconds"
Demitra walks out, already stripped and in a bikini "Teddy this is a sisters trip, we are meant to be stuck together, it's the whole point"
"Demi, I hate to tell you this but it's getting dark... the pool is shut" I say gesturing to her bikini.
She sits down opposite Thea, and places her legs up on the side of the balcony "I am not dressed to go swimming Teddy. I'm dressed like a premenopausal woman who is having a hot flush in February...your time will come" she adds.
