Meet The Demigods

Mellissa Levine

A/N: This is going to be sort of like a Modern AU, tell me what you think of it in the comments and the next chapter is going to be a guy.

I stared across the classroom, waiting for him to come in- there he was! I giggled and waved. He frowned uncomfortably and looked away.

Jason Grace, the hottest boy in the school. Straight A's too, and Captain of the Fencing Team. Every single girl, practically, had asked him out, and he'd rebuffed them all (politely, I might add).

I hadn't asked him yet, I was letting him have time to realise his feelings for a certain dark red haired, green eyed, beauty -me, Mellissa Levine!

I mean, come on! He's, like, the perfect boy for me, with his blonde hair, sky blue eyes, tan skin, perfect muscles and sure he's got a scar on his lip but that's minor detail compared to his chiselled cheekbones...

Sorry. Got distracted. But my point is, he's not gonna say no to me! And, I heard rumours he's like, super rich. His dad left him a fortune apparently.

So we were in History (boring), and I wasn't listening. (Too busy staring at Jason). Mrs Levana said something, and he looked straight up from doodling on a bit of paper. How he draws in class and still gets A's, I don't know.

"So class, can you write down if you know anything about the Legend of King Arthur?"

Uh...

I frowned at my exercise book.

He was a king, and he had a round table.

Yeah. I didn't know much.

A quick look around confirmed it- like, no one else knew apart from- three whole pages?!

Everyone gaped, astonished, at Jason, who finished writing, and looked up.

"What?" he asked.

Mrs Levana read what he had written. Her eyebrows rose higher and higher. Her mouth went slack.

"Jason, how do you know so much?"

"I took it upon myself to research it, seeing as he his name is my middle name. And I attend a summer school where we study mostly Myths, Legends, and Fairy Tales. But we mainly did mythology, that's what I'm best at, I could write pages and pages about that."

(I know Jason's middle isn't Arthur, just for the sake of the chapter it is)

"What's this school called? I've never heard of it."

"Primeval Lore Academy, it's rather exclusive."

Oh, that's another thing about Jason. He has this way of talking that's quite posh, and he talks like a natural born leader. I don't know. It just makes him even more attractive!

Mrs Levana then proceeded to praise him on his "extensive knowledge", and dismiss the class.

I was going to my final lesson of the day, when my friend, Leonie, caught up with me.

"Mellissa!"

I turned to her.

"Yeah?"

"Did you ask Jason  out yet?"

"No." I sighed

"Hurry up!" she yelped. "In case you've forgotten, we go on summer break today! He'll probably get another GF in the holidays!"

I gulped. I had forgotten.

"Um, I'll ask him after school. Will you come with me? Bring Louisa. We'll be all us three Diamonds, he can't say no, there's three of us!"
