TEMPEST

I kicked Will Solace forward. "Open it."
He looked utterly terrified. "What the heck?! You can't just barge onto my mom's tour bus and kidnap me while I'm sleeping!"
"I'll return you later!" I barked. I pointed at the cluster of rocks. "Open it."
He looked forward, tapping the stone. "I'm not sure you understand what a boulder is."
"That's not just any boulder," I said. "It's the Door of Orpheus. Play a song, or get the fuck out."
Will Solace gasped. His hair looked golden even though it was the middle of the night. He looked a lot like his dad- attractive, blue-eyed, tan skin, and wavy rays of gold that may as well have been plucked from the very sun. I guess Will Solace is one of those boys I can actually look at and say, If I was straight, I'd want that one. Apollo might've been one of those guys, but I know too much of his personality to like him very much. Will's sweet, not a player, athletic, and he's a healer. Coupled with his physical appearance, I'd consider him an attractive dude. Which, coming from me, is a lot. Most guys are fugly in my opinion.
"The... Door of Orpheus?" Will said softly, touching the boulder lightly with his palm. "It's here?"
Ugh, of course he'd be fascinated by this. All those Apollo-types really look up to Orpheus, since he used his gift with music to bargain for Eurydice's soul. Personally, I would never. I'd just storm up to Hades and demand he give Annabeth back to me, 'cause what's he gonna do? Kill me?
"Will you open the damn door?"
"I... don't have a guitar."
I tried to summon a ghost, but forgot that wasn't working. I groaned, holding my head as Will gave me a weird look. Quickly, I explained the situation, and he looked at me sympathetically. I fixed my hair and nodded at him.
"Just sing. I've heard your voice before. You're pretty good."
Will blushed. "I can't just sing a cappella in the middle of the night!"
"Just do it, Solace!"
"Oh, oh!" He said, smacking his head. "I'm convinced!"
I kicked his ankle and he groaned, stumbling back as he reached down to hold it.
"I'm not doing it, Tempest!" Will insisted.
I grabbed his neck and shoved him forward. "Sing right now, or I swear to Zeus, I will-"
"IIIII~" Will gulped. "-w-wanna rock 'n roll all niiiiiggghhhttt!"
I let him go, too disappointed to be mad. I sat down in the grass, pouting, and stared at Will as he straightened out his hair and fixed his shirt.
Then he really started singing. It was one of his mother's songs, so I didn't know it very well. But I'd heard Naomi Solace on the radio before, and totally understood how her voice was alluring to Apollo. When Will sang, I didn't see his godly parent in him. Sure, he looked like a mini-Apollo. But he wasn't extravagant the way Apollo was. His voice had that country twang from his mom, and the words flowed freely like golden honey in the middle of summer. Everything about that just screamed Naomi Solace to me.
