Tyson

Three Words

Athena

"Are you kidding ME?!" dad grows angry as I tell him everything. "YOURE DATING A KILLER?! AN ARCHER?!"

"Dad... he's amazing. His title doesn't affect our relationship" I say and he angrily laughs. "I'm serious! I really like him! He's so sweet! Caring! Yea... he owns up to his title... mean, aggressive, dangerous, and all that, but not to me! It's like he flips a switch with me"

"He's a PSYCHOPATH, ATHENA!" he shouts.

"He's my BEST FRIEND!" I grow angry.

"BREAK UP WITH HIM! I DONT WANT HIM ANYWAY NEAR YOU!" he shouts and throws his arms out in front of him. "I can't lose someone else I love"

I gasp. "Tyson would NEVER lay a finger on him! He wouldn't never hurt me!! He said it himself!! He could kill me in one push, but he wouldn't! He's been nothing but good to me, dad! He's helping me SO MUCH!"

"He's a killer, Athena. It's a TRAP!' he shouts.

"Get away from me!" I shout before storming out of the house and into my own car.

I thought he would come after me...

but he didn't.

Where is everyone?

"Athena!" Riley walks up to me.

I smile. "Hey! Where is everyone?" I ask and she looks down. "What's wrong?"

"The boys found the man who took my dad..." she trails off.

"Yea... yea Ty told me" I say softly.

"The guy is very... big. In Europe" she looks up. "They have to go to Europe, Athena, to fight off the biggest Mafia there"

I gasp. "WHAT?!"

"My reaction..." she frowns. "If they don't go, they burn my father"

I immediately hug her. "They won't let that happen" i comfort.

"I'm worried about them as well" she frowns and I pull back. "I can't lose them to that Mafia"

"You won't. They're strong and they will get Slade" I sadly smile.

"Athena, you don't have to act strong for me, I know you're worried about Tyson" she rubs my side.

"I'm worried about everyone. But I'm trying to stay strong. I believe in them. We won't lose them, ever" I say softly.

Before she could speak, the door opens, revealing everyone.

"This is shit" Matt groans. "I'm already in big shit with my mom, no way she's gonna let me go to Europe!"

Tyson looks at me and I frown.

He knows I know...

"Well, she's gonna have to because we need you" Gabe ruffles his hair.

"Don't even know if they're gonna let any of us go" Tyler sighs.

"I'll convince her" Scar says.
