Amethyst's POV
"NO!" I glare at my selfish mother. She made me go on 5 dates this week, that is to much for me. I had to spend time with Cupid, Apollo, Poseidon, and two other gods that I know......
"How about Hercules! He seems interested in you." More like he just wants to have sex with me. "Defiantly NO! He has already MANY wives." Why does my mother keep setting me up with different male gods. I already told her I'm not going to marry anyone. I just wanna be a normal girl! A human girl, but of course I can't be.
I walk past my mother but when I put my hand onto the door handle, my mother stops me and scans my outfit. "Where do you think your going wearing human clothes?" Oh yeah, she doesn't I quote, Approve..... "I'm going somewhere. Do you have a problem with what I am wearing?" I watch as she sighs with disappointment. "Your are a goddess. You are to wear clothes that shows that you are one. Why don't you wear the dress that you got for the last celebration of the day you were born?"
Ha! That's priceless I would never wear that dress, Last year I accomplished my 300th year of life. The dress is a light sapphire, one that is long in the back but really like really short in the front plus it only has spaghetti straps. Also it has a beautiful design of black roses that goes down the sides of my back, while the middle of my back is shown. THAT IS TOO MUCH SKIN SHOWING! Especially for my liking.... I know it was a gift from Zeus but I will probably never wear it. "But Aphrodite...... Please I don't wanna wear that dress." I try to give my best puppy eyes to add some sucker points. "No, If you won't go on another date then you are not aloud to wear another pair of pants. Now go to your room and change into the dress Zeus gave you!" What!? Are you kidding me!
"Please Mother, not that dress." I try harder with my begging but she keeps a serious face. "Obey your mother before I decide to force you to marry a god that I chose!" Wow..... I didn't see that coming. Yes I did. I slowly walk to my room and I slam the door shut, giving her a signal showing that I am furious, even though my room is across the hall from hers so she probably couldn't hear it. "She says Do this, Do that, Your a goddess, Wear this, Don't do that. All bullshit!" I look for that Shitty dress and when I put it on, I die a little inside. I look like a Slut. I let my hair fly free from the tight braid it was in. Now I look like a hooker, let's see if my mom approves of this! I run back to her room as fast as I can, just so I can see her face.
"Mom, do you like it?" I pose with my hand on my hip.
"You look so beautiful!" Unbelievable. I can't go out looking like this! You know the saying I guess first time shame on me. "Thx, See ya later mother." Is she really going to let me go threw the door dressed up like this? I open the door slowly and when I step out I look back but Aphrodite jut waves goodbye. Goddammit! I see the exit of the prison I call home and I run out hoping that no one saw me.
The silence was broken when I hear a whistle. How nice! "I'M A BEAT THE CRAP OUT OF WHO DID THAT!" And when I turn my face Hermes is towering over me, and there is only inches of space between our faces. I feel my cheeks flush a shade of red. "You don't seem mad do you, I was just giving you a complement, You look very beautiful today." He says with a smirk while leaning in closer so that our lips are only centimeters apart. "Why are you here?" I try to keep a straight face. His smirk disappears after I ask. "Um......here to leave a invitation. Zeus is holding a gala, no ones actually knows why? He says that it was important that this invitation was sent to Aphrodite, I don't know the answer to that either." Then he scratches the back of his head, messing up his dirty blonde hair with confusion. I have that admit a little cute.
But OK? That doesn't give a reason why he has to talk to me, he is just the messenger? "Cool, Now you can go and do your job. While I head out for a while." His give me a evil grin. Did I say something? "Do you really think I would let something as cute as you walk in this forest all by herself. Nope. Wait here." What!?
He better be quick. I take out my iPod thinking about how mad my mom would if she saw me with something humans use. I plug my earphones in and I put the song Doll house by Melanie Martinez. But I get interrupted by Hermes. "A iPod, interesting......" That Dude needs a bell. You should be able to hear when Some one is close by.
I start heading north, into the forest. While Hermes is trailing behind. I love this place the peace is amazing. The trees are quite lovely, the flowers are so pleasant. And I love how there is a even amount of sunlight and shade. But today I don't seem to like it as much, probably because Hermes here is watching me like a hawk! Can't he do anything else like stare at the grass instead. After walking for a couple more minutes at halt, my senses are telling me some one is close by coming in the opposite direction."What's wrong?" I doing answer all I do is stand there until I near the unknown person go behind the tree two feet away.
I hurry over to hiding spot that is closer to where the person is hiding and I try to make sure Hermes stays still since he is still on the ground. And when I see a movement I jump from the old oak tree ambushing the stranger. "Crap! You weigh more than an elephant!" I know that velvety soft deep voice. I opens my eyes to see cupid struggling to get me off of him.
"YOU SCARED THE LIVING CRAP OUT OF ME WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU!" He looks into my eyes and breaths in and out until he is seems to have calmed down. "Nothing is wrong, m'love. I came to see you........" Ha. Ha. That I doubt is true. And before I know it, his lips are against mine kissing me with passion, light, gentle, but I keep my lips closed not wanting this to last long. When he notices this he stops.
"You'll come around, plus it seems like you wanna stay on top of me." As soon as he says this I get up and walk toward Hermes leaving Cupid lying on the floor. Wait! Did Hermes see that! I'm not going to ask. "Hey, want to continue walking, the love god has two legs and can go anywhere else on his own." He chuckles at that statement. That was the first time I have every heard him laugh and it was a sound that was quite pleasant to the ear. "So.... I heard your getting married." Does he have mental issues. I know that he is well.... Hermes! The messenger of the Gods, but I still want to know if he has mental issues.
I glare at him, even though at the moment he wasn't even looking at me. "I don't believe in love, there is no such thing as a marriage without love. My answer is No Hermes, I am not getting married.... Nor will I ever." He chuckles again but with more volume. "I should have known." Known what! That all gods are jerks including you! "Explain." A good explanation I should have added. If he says something bad he will soon be looking at the bottom of his grave.
"You are not half the girl people says you are. I have only been by you for about 10 minutes and I feel like I already know you. I know you would chose black over Pink. A girl who tries to think and do everything on her own. Smart but doesn't like to show it. Beautiful but she doesn't know it. And would chose a Human over a God. Am I not right?" What!? That is not me at all, incorrect! He smiles thinking I'm speechless. I'm about to reply making that stupid smile come flying of his face.
"No, I am the girl people say I am. A dirty, no good, goddess, period end of discussion." Time passes by when silence takes over. Until I reach my destination, where Hermes shall leave. I do not like to be with other people when seeing my dear friend, Apollo.
"You may leave..... Your company was quite delightful."
Hermes does not say bye, he only scurries away in a hurry as if needed to go somewhere. I enter the cabin where Apollo was recently living, he says he loves nature but since we are besties I'm pretty sure he came here to be closer to me. When I enter I hear no noise at all. Until I hear Footsteps walking toward me and there is was. Apollo, the sun god, the one person who is as bright at the light that shines everyday. I say hi and he looks me in the eyes. "Follow me." I follow him to the last room in his cabin, his bedroom. I am the first one to enter, and I gulp with fear thinking that something bad was going to happened or already happened that I do not know about. I sit down on his bed waiting for him to enter. It takes longer then I thought.
