"Uh, is this a bad time?" Mingyu awkwardly asked.

"Pray tell, old chum," Jungkook answered but Lisa glared making him roll his eyes "I meant, not at all Gyu."

"Since when were you back in town?" Lisa asked after rolling her eyes at Jungkook. She then ran towards him and gave him a friendly hug.

"Just paying a quick visit to my fave greeks. Though I stopped by your place first, Lis. But you weren't in your pent," he said. "Imagine my surprise seeing you here with Kook. I had no idea you two were close."

"Now you do. So stop the cckblocking—ya! Stop doing that!" Jungkook held Lisa's wrist as she was about to slap his chest once again. "I can only take one at a time, doll. Don't make me punish you."

"Punish?!" Mingyu couldn't stop himself from chuckling. "Is this some kind of fifty shades kink? 'Coz that's cringey as fvck."

"Says the guy who tells all his fvck buddies 'daddy'..." Jungkook countered as he rolled his eyes. "What brings you here anyways?"

"Well, the annual charity gala is next week so I thought of coming here earlier—"

"Hey guys—woah!" A dark haired man, suddenly barged in. "Lisa? What are you doing in Jungkook's room?"

"Hey Gyeomie!" Lisa cooed at a wide-eyed Yugyeom. "Is this some kind of reunion sht for you guys? Two Kim's in one day. Amazing."

"Well Mingyu texted me that he's in town." He answered. "I thought of dropping by to say hi."

Mingyu smirked as he his his hands inside his pocket. Lisa turned rowards him.

"Ya, Mingyu," she called. "You're going to the gala?"

"Well, dad said it was a good opportunity to get to know you Greek kids," he said non-chalantly. "As if I don't already know you guys, right?"

Still not convinced, Lisa crossed her arms. "Yeah right and Santa Claus fcking exist. Just spill the beans, Kim Mingyu. Why are you going to the gala? Why is your dad going to a charity event filled with Greek Gods and Goddesses?"

Mingyu innocently raised both his hands up. "I swear I have no clue! But whatever it is, I'm cool with it. Especially when I get to be with my old chums, right Kook?"

Before Lisa could counter Mingyu, her phone buzzed. It was Namjoon. She immediately turned to Jungkook.

"Joon's here. See ya later Kookie!"

She grabbed her purse and planted a chaste kiss on Jungkook's lip. Much to their surprise. Both of them.

"Li—"

"I—"

They paused for a second but Lisa was able to push herself back to reality.

"I'll just go," she said while motioning towards the door. "Just text me when you're done catching up. Uh... bye."

"Wait!"

She turned towards Jungkook.

"Hmm?"

Jungkook adorably massaged his nape as he looked at her. "Gala?"

Lisa smiled. "Gala."

And then she left. But the smile on Jungkook's face stayed.

But then again, Mingyu's mischievous grin was wider.

"So... you and Lisa. Does she know about..."

"One more word, Norse, and you'll be saying goodbye to your precious tongue."

🌸

"Ya Park Jimin!"

Jimin's head almost snapped when he heard Taehyung call him. He was already wearing the team uniform while holding the soccer ball on his side.

"What?"

"Coach said practice in a minute. You haven't even worn your shoes yet captain."

"Huh? Why didn't you say so earlier?!"

He hurriedly put on his soccer shoes as Taehyung shook his head.

"You've been really spaced out lately. Still not over Lisa?"

He sighed. "You know the answer to that, Tae."

"But she's kinda with Jungkook."

"You know Jungkook always go for girls who are hard to get," he confidently said as they walked out of the locker room. "Then he'll grow tired of her and move on to his next target."

"I don't think so," Taehyung said as they dropped their bags. "Lisa's different, Jimin. You, of all people should know that."

"And I know Jungkook," he said with conviction. "He's bound to fvck things up between them. I'm sure of that."

"But Lisa still won't be yours again," Tae said as he kicked the ball towards him—which he caught almost immediately.

"She will be." Then he threw a powerful kick sending the ball away. "I swear—"

"Ya!"

His eyes grew wide as the ball flew unexpectedly out of the field and accidentally hitting someone. He and Taehyung exchanged glances before running to her aid.

"I'm sorry miss—"

"You should be more careful with that!" The girl blurted out. "Aish. I swear I shouldn't have used this way."

"Seulgi? Kang Seulgi?"

The girl slowly looked at Jimin. When she finally recognized him she scowled.

"Oh great. Park-fvcking-Jimin." She crossed her arms while eyeing him from head to toe. "Huh. It's really a good thing Lis dropped your sorry as$. You can't even kick that freaking ball right."

Jimin knew better than to argue with Seulgi as to she never did like losing. She is Sekhmet—the Egyptian Goddess of War's, daughter. But what is she doing in a Greek Campus?

"Stop staring or I'll pluck those eyeballs out," she hissed.

"Nice seeing you again too, Seulgi," he countered earning a death glare from the girl. "If you're looking for Lisa, she might be with Yoongi and the others."

"Who knew you could be useful too, huh?" She turned around and started to walk. Just when the two were about to turn as well, Seulgi called then. With their soccer ball on her hand and a hint of vengeance in her eyes, Jimin gulped.

"Tae..." he said softly. "I think we should run."

"Huh?"

Seulgi motioned her hand as if she was about to pitch a ball. Jimin immediately ran.

"Yaaaaaa!"

He was too late. The ball hit his head. Hard. It earned a triumphant smile from Seulgi before she left.

Jimin fell unconcious on the ground.

"Daebak. She should really join the basketball team." Taehyung commented as he just stood there looking at the K.O.'ed Park Jimin.

"Jisoo, have you seen Jin?" Rosé asked as she and Yoongi walked over by the lockers. "I've been looking for him all over the place. He's supposed to help me dye my hair after school."

"Did Yoongi check the restrooms? I'm sure Jin might be taking an extra time admiring his face in the mirror," Jisoo answered that made Hoseok chuckle.

"I already did," Yoongi answered. "He wasn't in any of the restrooms around campus.

"Maybe he went home?"

Jisoo took her phone up a called her step-brother.

"Out of Service."

"Where could he be—"

"Seulgi?" Yoongi suddenly muttered, squinting his eyes at someone. This made Jisoo, Rosé and Hoseok turn to look as well. "Ya Kang Seulgi!"

The woman who's around a few meters away geard and turned. She smiled brightly as she saw Yoongi and waved.

"Yoongi!"

Seulgi came sprinting towards Yoongi and gave him a big hug which he immediately returned. This earned a few snaps from the bystanders.

"Thank gods I finally saw you. I've been looking for you all over campus. Where's Lisa—" The smile on Seulgi's face faded when she saw Rosé. "You? You surely have thick face hanging out with Yoongi after what you've done to Lisa—"

"Seulgi. It's okay," Yoongi protectively hid Rosé behind him. "Lisa and Rosé are okay now. It was just a misunderstanding—"

"A misunderstanding?!" She scoffed. "I surely missed that 'misunderstanding' part when I saw her mouth all over Jimin's face."

"Ya Kang Seulgi!" Yoongi called her out.

"Wae?! She hurt your sister, Yoongi! She's a good for nothing snake—"

"She's my girlfriend!" He blurted out. "And if you still care about our friendship, you'd show her the same respect—"

"It's okay Yoongi..." Rosé softly said as she pulled his arm gently. She then faced Seulgi. "I... I know what I did back then was wrong and it hurt Lisa a lot. I really am genuinely sorry about it. I still am. And I know I deserve to be called a snake, traitor whatever it is. So yeah... I'm really sorry. I... I'll just go."

Rosé walked past Seulgi. Jisoo immediately followed her. Yoongi eyed Seulgi.

"What?" She raised her eyebrow. "You can't expect me to be okay knowing she hurt my Lisa."

"I know you're Egyptian but you're in Greek territory," Yoongi hissed. "We may be friends but hurt her again, I won't restrain myself anymore."

He left her and Seulgi looked over at Hoseok.

"How could you guys forgive her that easily? She hurt Lisa!"

"She's Lisa's best friend, Seulgi," Hoseok explained. "You would forgive too if you were her. You'd forgive Joohyun even if she murdered your cat."

She sighed. "Whatever. Since Yoongi bailed and Lisa's MIA, could you at least give me a tour of this campus? I don't want this trip to go downhill the first day."

Hoseok smiled and gestured his arm which Seulgi immediately clung on.

"Welcome to Olympus High. Home of the most scandalous group of demigods to have ever existed."

"So I've heard," she replied chuckling.

🌸

"Oh my gods!" Sana blurted out making the rest of the girls look at her. Jennie couldn't care less but given her situation right now and the possibility of getting caught, she had to be cautious.

"What now, Sana?" She rolled her eyes. "Is there a cat stuck in your a$s again?"

"Is it the Fate? Did she finally reveal the owner of the pregnancy kit?"

That made Jennie turn immediately towards Momo. "Pregnancy what now?"

"Pregnancy kit. The thing you pee on to know whether you're pregnant or not—"

"No sht, Nayeon. I know what a pregnancy kit is. Do you think I'm retarded?" She grabbed Sana's phone and scrolled away.

"Ya!"

It was in the Fate's main page and the one story's picture was familiar. Very familiar.

"J? Are you okay?" Momo suddenly asked. "You're looking kinda pale—"

"What's the latest juice here?" She frantically tapped on the device but due to her hand shaking, she shoved it to Sana's chest. "Look for the latest gossip and read it. Since that's the only thing you're good at."

Sana, Momo and Nayeon's mouth flew wide open. They all had the same thoughts: Jennie's ten times meaner today.

"U-uh... Actually the Fate hasn't posted any new developments. But someone comented on the Olympus Site that she saw Yeri going in a Pharmacy last tuesday. So they think it was her... or something," Sana explained. "U-Um, J? You're kinda breaking my arm right now..."

This made Jennie snap out and let go of Sana's arm. She grabbed her bag and stood up.

"Where are you going?" Momo asked. "I thought we were going out for some coffee?"

"Change of plans," she said and marched down the stairs ignoring her so-called friends.

When she thought the coast was clear she took out her phone and called the only person who can help her right now.

"This better be good, J."

"I need you to track someone for me."

🌸

"Is it done?" Namjoon was anxious as he waited for Lisa to do her thing.

"Hush, Joon," she said while swatting him away. "Haven't you done anything against the rules yet?"

"Not everyone in this school is like you and Jungkook, Lis," he defended. "Anyway, who are we exactly waiting for?"

She grinned. "Just on time."

Meters away from where Lisa and Namjoon were standing was Kim Yerim, Bellona's daughter.

"Be alert, Joonie," she said as she stood straight after leaning in on of the lockers. "Just be yourself and let the experts do the rest."

Lisa strutted away like the Queen she's known for. All the boys' eyes followed her making one topple over causing him to push Yeri forward.

On instinct he grabbed her by her waist, preventing a rough fall.

"Are you alright?" Namjoon asked. It was a good minute that they stayed that way.

Yeri blinked taking in what just happened. She immediately pushed Namjoon away and straightened her clothes. Her cheeks were a bright shade of pink.

"Uh, t-thanks." Then she scurried away with her back on her shoulder.

With that, Jin appeared out of nowhere startling him. "Such a gentleman you are, Namjoonie. Did you see how flustered she was? I bet she feels like she's in a drama right now and you're her leading man."

"Since when were you here?"

"About a good..." he looked at his watch then back at him. "Five minutes I guess. Anyways, nice seeing you, big guy."

And then he left. His phone buzzed.

📩 Private Message from Lisa M.

Nice work, Joonie! Now, for phase two.

Wait, what? What just happened?
