A cool summer breeze blows through my dark hair. The sun is warming my face and the grass is cool under my feet. I just love summer. I feel my phone vibrate in my back pocket. It's a call from my best friend(and my crush), Miles. I am a little too nervous to answer the phone.
I take a deep breath. "Hey Athena, Are you ready to go to the party?" He asks.
"I sure am! I'm just waiting for you to pick me up." I say smiling like an idiot.
"Well, I'm almost there. See you later."
He hangs up the phone and I sigh. I slide my sandals on my feet and run inside my house. My mom is feeding my baby brother when I open the back door.
"Have fun at the party. But not too much fun." My mom says with a smile.
"Mom, I'm a responsible seventeen year old girl; you don't need to worry."I say
I hear a car pull up in the driveway. It must be Miles. I pick up my blue purse and go outside. Miles is standing by the door of the car. He opens the door to the passenger seat and I get into the car.
"You look pretty today" he says coming closer to me. My heart jumps and I look away.
"If you keep talking, we'll be late." He smiles and closes my door. He goes and sits in the driver's seat. We drive off into the suburbs. The girl who planned the party lives in the nice suburban area.
"Miles, would you teach me how to drive sometime?" I ask to break the silence.
"Sure, I'll do anything for my best friend." That word is like an arrow in the heart. He only thinks of me as a friend. I look out the window. The sun is setting and stars are appearing. Suddenly there is a loud crash. My vision blacks out. I can't see anything, I can't hear anything and I can't feel anything. Just darkness.
"Wake up, Athena. It's okay now" I hear a kind,sweet voice say. I open my heavy eyelids and see a beautiful woman with long blond hair. I try to get up but I can't. "Who are you? Where am i?" I ask.
"I'm Aphrodite and your in Olympus."
"So when you say Olympus do you mean the Olympus in the myths?"
Aphrodite nods and sits on the bed I am laying on. I can't believe it I was just in the car with Miles.
"Where is Miles? Is he okay?" I ask trying to stand up. Aphrodite smiles and touches my cheek.
"He's fine. You need to rest before Zeus comes back." She shuts my eyes and I fall into a deep sleep.
