Everyone seems so happy, yet here I am, crying like a stupid teenager. I hope I'll be strong enough not to scream during the ceremony. That'd be super awkward. I'm sure Ares would never stop joking around about that. My eyes scan through the crowd and I suddenly freeze. She stands there, near the chairs, constantly giving orders where to put what. She seems so irritating being all bossy and whatsoever. I frown and my tears stop falling. A few of my kids notice me and run up to me yelling my name. They all gather around me wrapping me in a tight hug, but now I can't concentrate on them. When was the last time I could, though?

She notices me too and narrows her eyes, then starts walking towards me. All my otherwise loud kids instantly go silent, and I nod to them, so they mumble something about chairs and other decorations as they set off to different directions. I know they would pick up a fight for me any day, and they would certainly pick my side over Annabeth's. Especially in this messy story.

"Apollo" she says coldly and boldly.

"It's Lord Apollo to you," I stare in her eyes, and she grimaces. "Annabitch!"

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO MY SON???" I figured it was Poseidon, who caught us in the middle of our act, but the voice just wasn't right. Besides, I should have been plowed up by his Trident already, shouldn't I? I looked up scared, only to find a really angry Zeus towering above us. The scene felt honestly so bizarre, I forgot what I was doing. All thoughts seemed to empty my head. I got so relieved but also it irked me. What was he doing here? Out of all people?

"Wh-what?" Percy stammered nervously, not knowing what he had done wrong. Probably he couldn't place Zeus' weird behaviour either. It was a sight to behold.

"Oh, dear father, hello to you too. Please don't be so angry...even though I don't get why you would be mad at him... and it's not even what it seems like..."

"WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO MY SON???" he roared again, looking so furious I thought he'd might burst into his godly form only to light Percy on fire. After that heart fluttering kiss we just shared, I was sure I wouldn't be ready to have this end in a tragedy so soon. It didn't even start yet. I'd also promised myself no more love tragedies for me. So, either my next relationship doesn't end or I find a way to kill myself too. But this was stupid, we were just kissing, that didn't mean anything. It's not like I can take my claim on him, now that we've kissed. Sadly, those times have passed. But again, this just meant we haven't even started anything, so tragedy was definitely not due today. 

Not. Today.

"I-I..."

"Please Lord Zeus, try to calm down!" I pushed Percy back, just in case he did lose all his sanity and decided to burn him with his power, that could rip even the strongests apart, like they were nothing, and I crawled in front of the young demigod to protect him. "Why are you mad anyway?"

Zeus was always a mystery but this current situation got me worried now.

"He... you. Bed. What?" He mumbled a little bit calmer and quieter now, and for an insane moment worry washed over me. Was he mentally ok? "How? Why?"

"Umm, what?" Percy got confused, and I almost burst out laughing in the king of gods' face.

"You never had anyone in this bed." I was happy my father could actually put together a normal sentence. Or remembered a valid information from my life. Though that was just probably from Hermes' cunning.

"Oh, wow really? I thought you just told me that to impress or flatter me." Percy looked at me, amazement flashing in his eyes, lighting them up.

"Father, I don't think it's the right time." I motioned to Percy and I being almost naked. Percy started coughing as his blush spread from his cheeks down his neck to his chest. He was very cute like that.

"Uhm, not to be disrespectful and all that shit, but I guess he has a point." The boy added and immediately regretted opening his mouth as the Lord of the sky stared at him, suddenly snapping out of his astonishment.
"How dare you...?"

"Father, please?"

He threw me an angry glance then narrowed his eyes at Percy then finally made his leave stomping out. Honestly how old is he?

That thankfully left me alone with Percy again, who looked at me with a strange expression creeping onto his face. I could feel that the intimate-romantic-erotic atmosphere was completely ruined so with a snap of my fingers I got ourselves appropriately dressed again.

My phone started beeping and I found Hermes' messages.

Bro:sorry, dude
Bro:I didn't expect Z to go there
Bro:wat he done?
Me:thx, hate ya
Bro:was it tht bad?
Me:no, he was just shocked

As I was messaging my little brother, Percy let out an impatient groan, so I had to look up. He was cute pouting like that, it made me laugh again. I reached out to touch his cheeks or brush his hear fondly, but he jerked away from me.

"What now?"

"A minute ago we were deeply lost in kissing, now you can't put your phone down?" he raised an eyebrow at me. "Are you currently showing off the trophy you got today?"

"What, no! I'm not. Besides, did you just say deeply lost in kissing? That's cute you felt that way, my cute little poet!" I winked at him which appeared to anger him even more as he blushed deeply. He had to avert his gaze he was so embarrassed. I loved it. "Anyways, I felt the same to be honest. So don't worry. It was a mesmerizing kiss indeed."

"Fuck you."
