Olympian Blood

Chapter 28

Artemis

The next morning I was woken up to the sound of my T.V and loud crunching. Unable to ignore the noise anymore, I opened my eyes and turned to see Apollo and Athena eating bowls of cereal. Apollos' eyes were glued to the T.V while Athena's were set on her computer in her lap.

Sitting up I looked at them both sleepily.

"What the heckermuffins are you guys doing?" I asked grabbing their attention.

They stared at me as if it was an obvious answer.

"Umm eating?" Apollo said simply.

"I can see that but why are you eating in my room?" I asked gesturing to their bowls.

"Well, no one was up when we went downstairs so we just made ourselves a bowl of cereal and came back in here," Apollo explained.

"You guys are such weirdos. You act like you aren't used to eating breakfast by yourselves." I said rubbing my eyes.

"Well yeah but we've gotten used to everyone around the table and the noise," Athena said with a shrug.

I sighed and laid my head back on my pillow.

Apollo and Athena have always been early risers so they usually ate breakfast together and let me sleep in.

I turned so I could see what Apollo was watching so intensely on the T.v and I wasn't surprised when it was Spongebob. It was one of his favorite shows, Athena never liked it proclaiming it as stupid. Even as a kid she enjoyed watching the News and Soap Operas, she'll never admit it but she totally learned Spanish by watching those Soaps. Let her tell it had everything to do with the 4-year Gifted Spanish course she always bragged about in elementary school.

After laying in bed for a bit longer I decided to get ready for the day. I walked to my bathroom and washed off my face. I began brushing my teeth dancing to the little jingle I made up in my head. Suddenly I heard a scream come from downstairs, with toothpaste still foaming from my mouth I ran out the bathroom only to see Apollo and Athena already running out the room.

I quickly followed them out of the room and downstairs. Once we reached the kitchen, it seemed as if everyone woke up from the scream as they looked like they just rolled out of bed.

Everyone was surrounding one area of the kitchen and Apollo pushed his way past Franco, Aaron, and Ezra. It must have been Serena who screamed.

"What happened?" I asked but it came out a little funny since my mouth was still full of toothpaste.

Aaron turned around to face me. As he stepped away from the crowd I was able to see that Serena was sitting on the counter and Apollo was examining her.

"Good morning Snowflake, how'd you sleep after last night?" Aaron asked amused.

I rolled my eyes.

"You act like something happened," I said.

"Oh, you don't remember? You totally confessed your love for..." as he spoke my eyes widened.

"My dimples." He finished with a wink.

Letting out a sigh of relief I directed my concern back to Serena.

Moving past everyone I went over to Serena.

"Hey what happened?" I asked getting tired of my foamy mouth.

Serena let out a sigh before speaking.

I took a second and spit out my toothpaste into the sink behind me.
