knock, knock, knock
"Yo Alex, get up! It's flipping noon," a voice said outside my door.
"Mhmmm...," I groaned.
Who the hell wakes somebody up..let alone me. I sat up in bed and yawned. I got up out of bed and grabbed a pair baggy jeans off the floor --didn't bother to get a shirt-- and put them on walking to the door.
Knock, knock, knock
"ALEX!"
The voice yelled again.
I walked over too the door and slightly opened the door giving the person the best glare I could muster. If looks could kill.
"Dude it's time to get up..and stop looking at me like that..its freaking me out," Ryan said.
"What the Hades do you want Ryan? I'm tired," I said groggily scratching my head.
"Well it's half past noon and your still in bed. If I can't sleep, and gods knows I need it, you can't sleep either. Besides we've been looking for you."
"Why me?"
"Well let's see.." Ryan said tapping his finger too his chin, "You have training in the arena, Archery with Chiron, meeting up with me and Brian and Bryanna, oh and your helping me with Brian's birthday party," he told me.
"Why would i wanna help you," I asked while opening door fully letting him in.
I motioned him to the couch and turned on the lights walking over to my dresser pulling out a white v-neck putting it on and grabbed my red converses off the floor and went over to the couch.
I still had my bed hair which was slightly curly. Thanks dad.
"So the reason I need your help is because I really want his birthday to be special this year. I want to have a few friends over and just make a surprise birthday party for him.
"He's my friend you know? My best friend at that and I just really really care for him." Ryan said smiling.
Sighing I rub and pat his back grinning and let out a small chuckle.
"Well I'll help you. It's what friends do. Besides you could have told me sooner that you wanted to go out with him. Like come on!"
Ryan turned his head towards me, " Its that obvious? And why didn't I tell you? I-I'm not ready to tell my dad yet. Also I didn't think you would want to be my friend."
Sucking my teeth and pulling him into a hug I say, "Oh Ryan... it's okay. I would never lose you. I'm with you till the end."
He sniffed.
"Really?"
"Really. Guess what?
"What?"
"I'm bi. So no need to fret. If your wandering about my grandparents they were cool with it, except for Hades kinda. But he grew to it and.. I honestly think he's just happy to have someone continue my dads line."
We laughed.
We both got up and I grabbed my sword necklace and put it on and we walked out the door.
