"A P O L L O"
"What the fuck is going on?!" I yelled, absolutely furious at the scene in front of me, Everest's head darted up from its place on Spirit's shoulder, his eyes widening . "N-nothing" He muttered, before giving Spirit a kiss on the forehead, and darted towards the door, unluckily for him, I was there to block it. "Come on Apollo! Let me through" The last part was muttered in a defeated tone, "No!" I replied, still damn livid. I grabbed his collar and pushed him up against the wall, "What the fuck is wrong with you! Spirit is like your sister!"
Everest clawed at my hand, desperate for me to let go, my body temperature started to rapidly rise, well above what it should be, I heard shuffling movements. A small hand was placed on my shoulder, but almost immediately left, "Apollo!" It was Spirit, I looked back to see her cradling her hand, angry burns covered her palm, "Apollo?" A smaller voice said, I dropped Everest to the floor and swiftly spun around to see the beautiful ginger goddess before me.
"You need to calm down" She whispered, but I didn't need her to talk to me and soothe me like a young child, what she didn't know, was that her presence and voice was enough. My body temperature falling back to where it should be. Laike stretched out her pale, freckled-covered arm towards me, eventually reaching my chest. Unlike Spirit who had been burnt by me, Laike was fine, of course I knew she would be, she had made me calm down.
Her blue eyes delved deep into my hazel ones, causing a smile to break out on my face, she couldn't help but mirror my actions. I placed my hand ontop of hers, keeping it there. I eventually took both of our hands away from my chest, but our fingers stayed interlocked.
"Didn't you say something about wanting to go to the pool?"
Laike was wearing one of my shirts, but when we got to the pool side, she drew it up over her head, and threw it down on the ground.
Fuck.
Wow.
Laike was wearing a blue and white high cut bikini, and hell, if she didn't look hot as fuck in it. Laike turned back to look at me, "You coming?" I smirked at her and nodded, running up behind her and pushing her into the pool, me following straight after. Laike swam over to me, frowning. "That wasn't fair" She said, I laughed and tucked a piece of Laike's hair behind her ear, "Well, life isn't fair, so it's good that you're paired with me" I tensed, realising what I said.
I think Laike just thought I meant that I thought we would always be together. She's only got half of the story, if only she knew that we're paired together for life. I was so distracted by my own thoughts, that I didn't see that Laike was staring at me, biting her lip. We stayed like that for what must have been a couple of seconds, Laike leaned in so that our noses were touching.
Then she kissed me.
