We were at the breakfast table, I was seated right next to Tingles... Of course. His hand was on my thigh, I would have said no if I didn't remember his words from last night: "Every time her body isn't touching mine it feels like my skin is on fire."

Gabe was seated across from us happily eating his oatmeal and orange juice. Percy was chowing down on some scrambled eggs and I settled for cereal.

"So tell us more about yourself Max," Gabe spoke in a cheerful voice. Tingles looked down at me in agreement.

"I like to read and I like to ski, that's the extent of my interestingness," I told them.
Gabe didn't believe me," I'm sure there's more to you then that." I shrugged going back to my cereal, I didn't like being the center of attention.

"Well you like mythology, that's something interesting about yourself," he pointed out.

"I guess, it's not really something people my age consider cool. I don't talk about it much."

"Mythology is a amazing area of study," Tingles said.

I rolled my eyes," this is coming from the mythological creature sitting at the breakfast table."

A small smile formed on his face,"and this is coming from the goddess at the breakfast table." I blushed bright red and Gabe just laughed trying to drink his orange juice. Percy leaned in next to my ear whispering,"your cute when you blush."

I blushed ever redder, trying to hold back a smile. I could see him smirk out of the corner of my eye as he took a drink from his coffee. Dam that man...

"So what are our plans for the day?" I asked, trying to change the subject.

"Well I thought I'd give you a tour of the mansion and gardens," Tingles replied. I looked over at Gabe who gave me a reassuring wink.

"Sounds like a fantastic plan," I beamed.

Now finish your cereal, I don't want you going hungry," Percy said casually. I rolled my eyes and continued eating. After a little small talk, Percy took my hand in his and started the tour.

We started in the foyer of course where there was the stairs, entrance to the kitchen, library door and one more mystery door. I slyly pointed to the library door,"we can always start in there."

He tugged my hand past the door replying with a faint smile,"and if we were to do that we would never finish the tour."

I rolled my eyes,"ok, your right."

Leading me through the mystery door we found ourselves in a living room. It was very spacious and full of warm colors and tones. Reds, Browns and Sparks of blue decorated the living space. Expensive brown leather chairs and couches surrounded a lovely coffee table. A flat screen mounted the wall just above a grand, traditional fire place with red brick. On the coffee table was a golden vase with blue flowers sprouting out of it. The curtains were traditional thick red and long against the tall pane Windows.

He smiled seeing my reaction, "comfortable huh?"

"It's very traditional with a splash of modern, I like it."

We toured through a few of the more important rooms, until we arrived to the back patio. He stopped at the double glass doors looking down at me hesitantly. His expression became serious,"stay close. And for god sakes don't try to run." He yanked me to his chest, his eyes staring through mine." Because I will catch you every time," he warned with a dark hint to his eyes.

I nodded, knitting his hand in mine to prove I understood. The tingles trickled like water through my veins. His face seemed to lighten as he saw me do this. He squeezed my hand making the tingles stronger, he looked from my hand to me. "Then let's go."
With that he opened the doors letting the sunlight touch my skin.
