"Hi, Mrs. Darcy," I said my face probably turning the color of a tomato. 

"Oh please don;t let me stop you dear I'll go take a seat," She said winking at me again. This is the most embarrassing moment of my life. While other than that time I fell down my stairs at a family party. I shudder at the thought of it. It was all my stupid cousin tony fault. 

"See you're always in a daze how can you protect yourself like that?" Ares said turning me back toAre we still on this?  

"Can we talk about this when Mrs. Darcy isn't watching us like we are characters on a soap opera?" I whispered to him. I grab Mrs. Darcy a piece of cake walking over to the table.  Little does she know I made this just for her. There's no sugar in it because I recently found out from her husband that she has diabetes. 

"He is a looker sweetie" She whispered taking the cake. "I knew you would get a boyfriend Mr. Faulter owns my five bucks now" I raised my eyebrow shocked. They made a bet on if I would get a boyfriend. How said is my love life? Don't answer that, please. 

"Would you like some coffee?" I asked pretending I didn't hear about the bet part. For my ego's sake. 

"I would love that" I walk towards the counter noticing Ares isn't there. A shatter glass noise comes from the kitchen. What the heck? I run over into the kitchen seeing Ares standing next to a broken plate. 

"Don't touch it" I yelled over at him woah my voice sounds deep right now. What am I batman Did he not know he was going to cut himself? 

"Shut the fuck up" Ares growled causing me to take a step back. And to think his bad mood all started because I didn't freaking wake him up.  He looks over at me his eyes widening surprised  "Alex?" 

"I'm sorry" I mumbled. Why do I feel my eyes watering? Oh, don't do it Alex don't cry. Oh, Damn it too late. I think to myself as I feel a tear fall from my eye.

"Are you crying?" He asked well more like demanded. "Alex I thought you were Apollo" 

"I feel bad for Apollo then"I said quickly turning away from him wiping my eyes. "Im not crying"

"Then look at me" He demanded. God, he sounds even scarier. How is that possible? I don't want him to see me crying. Why am I even crying? Can I make it to the exit? Why not try?  Before I can take a step forward. Ares grabs my waist pulling me into him my back still facing him.

"Look at me" He whispered in my ear causing me to shiver. 

"I'm not crying" I froze feeling his breath on my neck. What is he doing? Why aren't I moving?  

"Please don't cry. I never want you to be upset.  I don't even know why? Do you know how frustrating this is? I hate this feeling." He whispered placing his head in the crook of my neck. "But I don't want it to go away" What? 

"Um I hate it when my mom finishes the fruit loops?"  Did I just say that? Can I get any more awkward?
