Prosaic (Discontinued)

Chapter 3

"So, what's my big surprise thing you mentioned yesterday?" I ask Apollo as we were eating breakfast. Yesterday, as soon as I walked in the door I was greeted by my mom, and multiple other family memebers. This includes my cousin Zoey, whom I honestly did not miss. I know that sounds bad, but we all have that one family member that we just hate for no reason.

Anyway, it wasn't exactly a party, because you can't have a party without music, so it was really just a bunch of people having dinner. And it was boring and awkward as fuck. There was hardly any talking besides when my uncle tried to ease the tension by making stupid jokes that noone laughed at. So yeah, very awkward.

Now looking back on such an 'eventful' night, I'm now realizing why I'm so excited for this surprise. "I'm still not telling you. You're just going to have to wait. We'll leave right after breakfast though so as soon as you're done we can go," he said, causing me to eat my Cheerios faster, which caused him to laugh. "Don't choke," he joked. (A/N: Ha. That rhymed :P)

I had soon finished and we made our way outside. I started to walk towards the car, but Apollo stopped me. "Nope. We will be walking to our destination," he said. I nodded, and he led the way down the sidewalk. I was so excited that I was practically bouncing down the sidewalk. "Damn Arty. I might have to start calling you Tigger if you don't calm down a little," he teased.

"Well can you blame me? I've been locked inside a mental institution. I haven't been outside in 3 years!" I exclaimed. He nodded. "Fair enough," he shrugged. I rolled my eyes and shoved him as we continued on our journey. I followed behind him as he made many twists and turns.

After about 12 minutes I had lost my bounce. 4 minutes after that my smile decreased. 7 minutes later I had lost all enthusiasm. I groaned. "Are we there yet?! We've been walking for ages!" I complained. "Yes actually. Just around this corner and... We're here!" he said.

I looked around. We were now on the very edge of Sydney. I looked at Apollo to see he had a large grin on his face. "Am I being punked?" I ask, narrowing my eyes at him. He laughed. "Listen closely. What do you hear?" he asked. I paused and just listened to my surroundings. I was about to give up, when I heard it.

My eyes widened as I heard the sweetest sound ears could ever hear. I stood there and continued to listen, making sure I wasn't just hearing things. Nope, no I definately hear that. I honestly thought I would never hear that sound again. I looked at Apollo.

"Is that music?"

(A/N: Gasp! What?! Yeah so I will most likely be updating more regularly, but I'm not sure when yet. Thanks for reading! Don't forget to weird someone out today! :P)
