He dragged me to a table and ordered two lattes, like this dude needed any more coffee! He was practically vibrating with fear or excitement, I couldn't really tell which. While we waited I asked him what was wrong. At first he tried to pretend that he was fine but soon he gave up and didn't say anything. The guy was an awful liar and he knew it. Finally the drinks came. I sipped mine, to be honest I didn't really like coffee, and then put it down. Ash on the other hand guped it down like his life depended on it and then started eating the cup. WHOA! I knew the guy was vegetarian like me but thats going a bit far. 'Dude', I stared,'What the hell are you doing?' He looked up at me and seemed to realise he was stuck, because he sighed and asked me, 'Lily, How much do you know about the Greek gods?'

I stared at him, that was sooo not what I as expecting. I gaped then realised he was waiting for an answer. 'Um not much', I replied uncertainly. 'We had to do a project on them but as you know I-'.

'-Dont do your homework', he finished sighing. I frowned. The dude was starting to get on my nerves. 'Look what's this all about?', I demanded. 'So I'm not an expert on a load of toga wearing guys and their crazy gods. What's this got to do with me?'

'Lily, have you ever wondered about your parents?'

'Sure', I replied,'they're dead.' I stopped abruptly, this was a touchy subject and he knew it.

He sighed again, 'No they're not.' It took me a while to process what he was saying, but when I my jaw dropped and my eyes bugged right out of my head. I probably looked like a complete idiot but WHAT THE HELL. 'Of course they are', I argued back, what are you saying-'

'Just listen, OK?' He cut across me and I sat back scowling. I decided that I'd hear him out until the crazy wore off just to humour him. 'OK. Explain'

'Look...' He seemed to struggle in getting the words out. I was about to interupt again but then he started gushing without taking a breath. 'Your parents aren't dead, well one probably is, but one's not, they're a Greek god and still alive, your half a god, what we call a demigod,and I'm a Satyr.' He finished somewhat proudly. I gaped at him again, then stood up. 'Wha-', he started:

'No', I cut across him. 'I'm leaving now. Stop trying to give me false hope. My parents are dead. Greek gods are just a story. Come and find me when the crazy's worn of. Until then, leave me alone.' I turned and stumbled away, tears stinging my eyes. Suddenly I heard the clip clop of hooves on the pavement. I turned around, curious despite myself, and saw Ash standing there. He wasn't wearing any trousers.
