It's lunch right now, and I'm not really hungry so I'm just sat talking to Meli and Neridia.

"Yeah so I was telling her that, nothings going on between you guys, but she thinks you have a thing for him" Neridia tells me,

Cordelia thinks I have a thing for Sebastian???
WHAT?!?!?

"Neridia, I don't have a thing for Sebastian, and you can tell Cordelia that, she can have him if she wants him" I tell her.
"Hey seb how's it hanging" Meli says just as I finished my sentence.
"Wow, amia after our date yesterday I thought you were finally falling for me, I guess not" Sebastian says, from right behind me and Meli and Neridias eyes shoot out of their heads.

I turn around on the picnic bench we were sat at and stand up so me and Sebastian are face to face.
"I owed you one, I said I would go but I also said I wouldn't like it, if anything, I think you are the one who has a thing for me, because you seem to never leave me alone" I say to him.
"Rea tell Cordelia that I'm not into her because I like someone else" Sebastian says looking directly at Neridia.

disappearing to my dorm room once more leaving a trail of purple mist behind me, it's a good thing I don't have any afternoon classes.
I retrieve the book from under my pillow, when a thought pops into my head,

My mom wants chaos but to return to Tartarus, I want chaos but with me being here I can take over Olympus with the help of Meli, if she's up to it,
When theirs a knock at my door.

"Yes" I say with an aggravated tone of voice after opening the door, not bothering to life my eyes from the ground.
"Are you okay?" The feminine unknown voice asks me, not recognising the voice I lift my eyes from the ground.

To see two girls both have dark hair, one black and one dark brown, both with a light complexion, both have blue eyes but one set of eyes are a lot brighter while the others are dark.

"I'm fine, who are you two?" I say to the two girls who are stood at my door
"I'm lake and this is my cousin Rain, our moms are Alana and Adella, ariels older sisters" lake explains to me, Rain is either very shy or she doesn't talk.

"Oh okay so that means your cousins with Neridia, right?" I ask opening the door fully for them to come in as I walk to my bed shoving the book under my pillow once more.
"Yeah, she's a couple of months younger than us" Rain says and lake gives her a strange look, but I just ignore it

"Why did you come here? How did you even know this was my room" I ask them, and they both walk over to my bed sitting with me
"You were sat with Rea and Meli and we saw some stuff go down then you were gone" lake explains to me
"And we asked Ben what dorm room was yours" Rain ads on after lake is done talking

"Ohhh okay" I say and everything falls into an uncomfortable silence then I hear a muffled voice but I can't make out what it's saying
"I'll see you guys later alright I've got homework to do" I say to them and they get up and leave sending me small smiles before they leave and they close the door when they're gone

I pull the book from under my pillow and I hear the same sentence being repeated, the book opens by its self turning to a page I haven't gotten to yet

"Sirens guard the book, with a rhyme, you could figure it out in due time." The voice from the book says

What???  Sirens meaning it's underwater, and a rhyme? Could be A riddle

After a few hours of thinking Mal and Evie burst into the room pulling me from my thoughts just not fully, Evie hands Mal a dress and some other things that she gets changed into, then Evie starts braiding a small strand of the purple hair

"What are you doing?" I ask them, moving to grab my book about sirens of the night stand beside my bed, I ran to the library earlier to grab it, so I know what I was up against
"Ben asked Mal on a date" Evie says applying blush to Mal's cheeks

"Easy on the blush I don't wanna scare him away, not that I could" Mal says to Evie pushing her hand away from her face.
"Please, my mom taught how to apply blush before I could talk, always use upward strokes" Evie says to Mal grabbing a lip stick from beside her dabbing it on her finger

"My mom was never big on makeup tips and I never had a sister" Mal muffles out as Evie applies the lip stick.
"Now you have two, we're gonna need the most family we can get if we don't pull this off, you know my moms not a barrel of laughs when she doesn't get her way, ask Snow White" Evie says to us sending me a smile and I give her one back

"Are you afraid of her?" Mal asks Evie looking up
"Sometimes, are you two afraid of your moms?" Evie's replies putting the lipstick down.
"I just really want her to be proud of me, she gets so angry with me when I disappoint her, and yeah, she's my mom, so I know she loves me, in her own way, what about you amia? Are you afraid of your mom?" Mal say's answering Evie's question then looking at me.

"Well. I mean yeah, she's the goddess of chaos, who isn't afraid of her" I mutter out to my self but the girls must of heard me, they don't know who my mom was, well they didn't know who she was, now they do
"So that's who your mom is, why didn't you tell us?" Evie asks coming to sit on my bed beside me
"I don't know, I'm the goddess of lies, what am I supposed to do" I tell them and they bow their heads understanding what I mean

"Come on M, come see" Evie says pulling Mal off the bed, with me following behind, to the mirror to show Mal how she looks
"I look. Not hideous" Mal says
"Not at all" I say leaning against Evie's bed frame
"Not even close" Evie says wrapping an arm around Mal and reaching back for my hand, and I shake my head at her, until she grabs my hand anyways making me let out a small laugh and Mal lets out a giggle

Evie lets go of Mal walking me over to her bed sitting us down
"You're a goddess, and everyone deserves to know it, Amia" Evie says to me, as theirs a knock at the door. Me and Evie jump up, standing at the end of Evie's bed as Mal opens the door, with Ben stood on the opposite side of it

"I'm heading out" I whisper to Evie grabbing my leather jacket leaving the room walking up to Meli's room, knocking on the door as Cordelia opens it.
