The Five Demigods

Chapter 57

Mitch yelled in frustration after his father left.

"What the hell does that mean?" He shrieked.

Kirstie giggled. "Mitchy, baby...I think that means he needs a kiss."

"A kiss?" He looked at her wide eyed. "Do you remember the last time I had to kiss someone to get out of a situation?! It didnt end well. For anyone." He looked at Avi.

"But Mitch, I think Hades meant true love. I mean, Scott is the son of the Goddess of Love, it makes sense! True loves kiss is powerful enough to break anything."

"You've watched way to much Disney."

Kirstie scoffed. "Don't you dare insult Disney! Two of my favorite movies are Disney movies."

"I know, you never shut up about it."

"Don't hate. Disney is amazing."

Mitch rolled his eyes. "So...I'm supposed to kiss him?"

"That's my guess." Kirstie shrugged.

Mitch looked at the ground. "But, I don't feel anything."

Kirstie was about to respond, when she decided it would probably be better to talk in private, so she held her hand out and nodded to the door.

Once they were outside she looked at him.

"Mitch." She said softly. "It's not one of those things you understand right away, if ever. I've seen the way you look at Scott, there's something there, I know there is. You light up whenever you guys talk."

"I don't know..." He said weakly. Hes never felt anything like what he felt when he was with Scott.

"Mitchy, think about how Scott makes you feel. You guys are having a baby. You have a physical connection as well as the emotional. I saw your face when you came back."

Mitch sniffled. "What does love even feel like?"

"Who knows? It's different for everybody, but Mitch, there is something. I can see it, I'm also an empath so like..." she giggled. "I kinda know how your feeling."

"That's creepy." He joked.

She laughed with him. "My point is, Mitch, you feel something for him."

"Yeah, but what?"

"Only you can know that." She gave him a soft smile.

"Psfft, that helps." He rolled his eyes. "I'm not good at "emotions"." He said, making air quotes with his fingers.

"Well, it's a good thing I'm here, but this is something you need to figure out by yourself."

Mitch sighed. "I can't...right now."

"Its alright." Kirstie said, giving him a hug and a kiss on the cheek before walking back inside.

Mitch sighed and looked at the door.

What did he feel for Scott? Yeah, he genuinely cared about him, he wanted to be around him, he wanted to be held and have a genuin conversation with him, wanted to just be with him.

But was that love?

He didn't know. He'd never been shown it, so he didn't know what it was.

"It's worth a shot. What have you got to lose?" He asked himself.

He steeled himself and went inside.

"I'm not doing anything until all of you leave the room." He stated.

Everyone nodded and started to move.

"Including the passed out lumberjack on the couch."

Kirstie couldn't help but snort, as she went over and woke Avi up.

After several minutes, everyone was finally out of the room, leaving Mitch alone with the Son of Aphrodite.
