I'll stop wearing black when they invent a darker colour

"I want everyone downstairs NOW" Mom yelled like a mad hyena might I add. No like seriously, this woman has the yelling voice of a Lady in labour.

Today happens to be a Saturday,meant for rating junk food and watching endless marathons of useless series on Netflix in my opinion. But not in the West household. The West siblings are given a large amount of money let's say ten thousands dollars give or take to get whatever they want and then go for training an hour after coming back.

It's the worst honestly

"OK everyone is her" Mom's voice brought me out of my mini head ranting session about what Saturday should and shouldn't be used for. Everyone happens to be here however. The twins,Ares and I.

"I want everyone back by seven on the dot. No going out on sleepovers at the last minute-"

To Athena

"-No wanting to stay at the video games shop-"

Ares

"-No explosives no matter how little it may look-"

Aphrodite

And lastly

"-No buying of goth stuffs to this house"

That summed it up every Saturday to every ones relief.

"Ma yes ma" We saluted mockingly giving her the most exaggerated cheeky grins we could muster. We were going to break those damn rules anyway.

I'm looking forward to a day with my sibs

****

I don't get why we can't go to a normal downtown mall,always an expensive one. As soon as our shoes touched the ground of the mall,we separated after making a deal to meet each other by six thirty so as to make it home on time.....ish.

So much for a day with my sibs

What to buy?

What to buy?

"Seems like we meet again Artist" some familiar voice said.

Why Lord? Why?

Turning around I came face to face with our very own Christian Jerky Brooks,the Nerd I haven't seen for three days now.

"Why am I not surprise to see you here when you seem to be following me everywhere" I said checking my nails calmly like those drama queens on chick flicks. Taking my time to analyze him,I realize he wore a white T-shirt,gray hoodie,white jeans and vans,his brown hair messier than usual.

A low chuckle came from his throat throwing me off my analyzing game.

"I know I'm extremely handsome but please stop looking,what is everyone gonna say when they see the school's richest goth staring at an ordinary boy like me like a piece of chocolate"

The nerves

"I was totes checking you out..wondering how a human gave birth to something as morbid as you"
I retorted sassily like it's my job.

The brown haired bookworm put a hand on Hus chest feigning hurt.

"That's a good one Artist"

Artist?

My name is Artemis

"My name is Artemis airhead....and what the fuck do you want?"

For drama,he put a hand on his chin stroking it whist faking to be deep in thoughts.

"What do I want...what do I want...nothing I want nothing at all"

Cue his outro music cause that dude has the most dramatic exits in the short time I've known him.

I ended up buying new jeans,t-shirts, hoodies,vans,boots and sneakers coupled with bracelets and rings to hide my secret stashes of junk food.

Today had been nice except seeing Christian, that time was terrible. But onto the nice part,we had spent a lot of time at the mall and now stood outside the house,car parked trying to find a way to sneak into the house, a highly sophisticated house filled with security cameras at nine at night.

"How are we gonna sneak up to our rooms without getting caught?" That was the question on all four of us minds.

This house was loaded with cameras. After several minutes of thinking I got an idea,a really bad idea.

"Aphrodite hacks into the house's cameras and disable the for twenty minutes,Athena sprays some guards with cheap perfume enough to tinker them I think and Ares and I sneaks in"

Let's pray my plan works

My plan did not work. The reason why dad decided to skip training and forced me to have hand to hand combat with one dafoon. We were given lectures on why disabling the houses cameras were bad and got grounded for two weeks.

Sucks to be Athena

"Ding"

Message alert

Opening my phone to discover a three words message that is really creepy.

'I'm watching you'
