The rest of the day follows the same routine as this morning. I show up late to class then take the empty seat next to Shawn. It's like pulling teeth to get her to talk to me more than a few words at a time. Ugh Shaw is so annoying. So we are in our last class of the day Word Lit, the teacher is on and on about how re are going to read the classics and in there will be Greek mythology. It's hard but I contain my laughter. Hmm I wonder if I'll be able to tour Shawn in that. I've notice she's smart, funny and gorgeous but no one sits next to her in classes or talks to her during lunch. On the other hand she seems to always be around Shaw and he's quite popular. That has me wondering about her. With Shawn there are more questions then answers, I'm afraid.
Just as I'm about to lean over and try talking to her again that irritating teacher calls on me. For what I have no clue.
"Aidoneus Orcus, that's an unusual name where are you from?"
I roll my eyes but since I still have on my sunglasses she can't see. My answer is sarcastic and rude when I answer her, "It's Aidoneus Orcus. And I never said where I'm from. Now I'm curious as to where I'm from has anything to do with this class."
She sputters with, "Since your new here I thought we all could get to know more about you."
Oh fucking fantastic, another fan girl of mine. I swear I'm going to kill Aphrodite when I see that bitch next. Because of her touch now I have all these humans running after me. Fuck I forgot to cover it up when I came back to earth.
"Hmmm. Well then I'm from Greece. So Greek mythology is kinda ridiculous for me to study."
I hear half the class snicker and the other half looked shocked. I look over and find Shawn shaking and I wonder if I went to far with it. I lean over and gently take her hands away from her face and turn it towards me and I'm shocked to see tears running down her face but before I can act she takes a deep breath in and out comes her laugh.
"You find this funny babygirl?" I ask still a little bit shocked by this.
" Hehehehehe, oh yes. She's such a noise twitch anyways. It's about time she gets what's coming to her. Hehehehe." She takes another deep breath in but before I can say anything else to her she goes on,"Just be careful she likes younger guys so she might try and seduce you with the promise of better grades. Hehehehehe."
Then she puts down her head and continues to laugh through the whole class. Wow was that a conversation without me having to pull it out of her. Well I'll take it either way. Hmmmm finally progress.
As the bell rings and we finish the class the teacher calls for Shawn to stay while the rest of us go. I'm torn between going and finding Shaw to get some answer's or staying with Shawn.
I decided I'll go and find Shaw. So heading out of the classroom I "listen" to the human's mind until I find me outside. It takes me a few minutes to get to him and when I do it's not a warm fuzzy family meeting.
"Hey asshole you need to give me an explanation." I yell towards him.
I see him slumt on his car hood watching the crowd and waiting for someone. I hope it's not Shawn.
"Do I. I don't remember what for, could you refresh my memory for me." Shaw's reply is lazy but I hear the steel under it. I wait until I'm right in front of him and I lower my voice so we're not over heard by anyone coming by us.
"Why didn't you tell me you found my wife?" I'm angry and hurt we had been close until this morning, when he came in between me and what's mine.
" Your wife. She's not Persephone. Persephone died over a eno ago. This here is a human girl not a demigod. " his voice is low and angry.
"That's Persephones soul in that girl and that makes her my wife. She is not for you Eita. She's mine and I won't give her up this time or share her, so back off." This is the only warning he's getting from me.
"Damn it Aidoneus you need to realize she is already claimed. I claim her 3 years ago when I first meet her. I'm not giving her up for you or the fucking Fates. And that brings me to another question why are you here anyways?"
"You can't claim her she's my soulmate. It doesn't matter how long you've been with her, she's mine and you will step aside this is the only time I'm saying this don't make it come to a fight because we both know you won't win cousin." I take a breath and continue, "I was summoned. Which is in its self something I don't know. I still can't figure out why any human would want to in the first place."
"Well fuck. That's utterly insane. Why you and not a warm and fuzzy like Aphrodite?"
"Beats me. But they will regret it when I come across them."
"I bet. So where is my girl? The last time I saw her you were staking her."
"She's not yours and our last teacher pulled her aside to talk to her."
"Yes she is. And which teacher is that?"
"Don't know the slut that teacher's World Lit."
" Oh fuck you left her with that bitch. Fuck!"
And before I can get another word in Shaw races across the parking lot and into the school with me hot on his heels.
If anyone is going to save Shawn Shawn it's me and not that asshole.
