I stayed at school that afternon. I walked to the library as fast as I could so I could get the good books. I walked over to the book shelf and picked out the book "To Kill a Mocking Bird". I've heard so much about this book that I want to read it so bad.

I have a huge headache so I check the book out and start heading to the football field in the back of the school. I carry my books to the bleachers and sit down because they are still having practice. Arthur notices me right when I sit down and he waves to me. I mentally frown at myself for waving back. I sit there for a while but it isn't that bad I have that book that I had gotten from the library with me. I am so in to the book that I don't notice his practice had ended. I felt someone sit next to me. I take my head out of my book and look at Arthur who is right next to me.

"Hey, Psyche what are you doing at my football practice?" Arthur says to me. I then do something I would have never expected. I get up slowly and stand right i fron't of him. I lift my hand up and smack him in the face. I must have smacked him hard enough because I left a mark.

"How could you do that to Percy?!" I scream at him. "Did you really think hurting one of my friends would change anything?!" I am so mad I feel tears start to fall down my face. He then stands up and his mouth opens but nothing comes out. "Don't you ever touch Percy again are I will have you expelled." He looks at me with anger in his eyes.

"If you found out that I hurt Percy, then do you know why?!" he screams.

"Yes. it is because you are jealous. Which is the stupidest excuse in the book." I say to him. "How could you beat up poor Percy, he did nothing wrong." I glare at him.

"He did nothing wrong, he did everything wrong" he takes a step forward torwards me. "He has you, it's like you don't see it. You give him all the attention and you guys are so close." He puts his hand on my cheek sense I am pressed up againest the fence that keeps you from falling off the bleachers. "Do you know how much I love you?" he says softly and leans in. His eyes start to close. I don't have the same feelings for him at all. I get away from his grip and grab my bag.

"I am sorry Arthur but I love Eros." I say to him. I run down the stairs of the bleachers.

"You will regret not loving your king" he yells at me as I run to my car which is still at school. I drive home and try to sleep but I can't as Arthur's words repeat in my head.

"You will regret not loving your king"

"You will regret not loving your king"

I am so scared to know what he meant by this.
