I have lived in France for the last hundred years and now it was time to move again. Now it's time to go to the US. The hardest job that's why I was called in. As I walk up the path to the Greek house of my cousin Dionysus I can smell and hear the latest of his parties. I shake my head as I walk in seeing three Nymphs crawling all over Dionysus. I turn to go up the stairs I hear him yell.
"Cousin where are you going? The party is down here." Dionysus looks at me with the biggest smile. "You're supposed to be a god of love. There is plenty of love to go around down here."
" If I wanted to be covered in filth I would have stayed in Delhi." I turn to walk up the stairs ignoring his disbelieving stare as I walk up to my room.
"You are worse than Ares," Dionysus yells as he shakes his head as he walks back to the party.
I close and lock my door shutting out the orgy downstairs. I look around at least my room was better than the hotel dumps I have stayed in the past. But not as good as my grandmother Aphrodite's home on Mount Olympus. I fall on my bed and pull up my laptop and open my email. I see that my father has sent me the list of people that I either hit with my golden arrow of love or my led arrow of hate. I look at all the names most of them were just high school kids. that means I will have to go to school. Hera why I hate human schools. I hate American high schools the most.
I look at the clock on my nightstand. only 7:30 at night, I put my headphones in and put on Jonny Cash as I try to sleep with all the noise going on downstairs.
*** Dream***
"Grandmamma you look so beautiful. Can I brush your hair?" I look at the goddess of love and beauty sit in front of a huge mirror.
" yes, my little Alex." Aphrodite smiles as she hands me her hairbrush. I slowly brush her hair as I smile. I love brushing her hair she is so beautiful.
" grandma, can you tell me a story? " I see grandma's smile fade as she takes me into her lap and clears her throat.
" hmm, what story do you want to hear my little love?"
I smile up at her " the one about cupid's curse"
she smiles as she began to tell a story I have heard all my life.
I woke with my alarm going off. Time to go to work.
