It was around 8:30pm and Alexiel had wandered into the gardens. Her long black masquarade dress was very attractive on her slim curves and the white was silky and glistened in the moonlight. She'd pulled her hair back into a high ponytail. She took off her mask and set it down, she was tired of wearing it, besides who would see her anyways. She chew on her bottom lip and walked past the fountain but stopped and turned to look down at her reflection. She sighed, this wasn't her. She wasn't flashy, she felt plain and ordinary. She was a fate, no not even that. She was a half-blood. She slapped the water's surface and walked away. She turned the corner and found a large rosebush, the sons and daughters of Demeter tended to the roses, it was their project. She walked over and ran her finger across one of the roses but pricked her finger on a thorn and jerked her hand away. She walked to the opposing end of the walkway and sat down on a cast-iron bench. She stared at the roses then remember the knot in the tree and walkede away, only to return a minute later with a sketchbook and a few pencils. Alex sat back down and began sketching the roses, she was highly focused but it started to get cold. She shivered and dropped her pencil. She looked up at the moon and let out a soft sigh, Why am I sitting out here alone... Everyone else is back at the building having a blast. But, I - I don't belong with them. I can't dance and have fun. she scolded in her mind and bent forward to pick up her pencil and returned to sketching the rose bush, but now tears were starting to run down her powder blushed cheeks and it began to smear.Word Count: 325 Muse: Lagging Notes: Alexiel's Dress

A rather built young man of about eighteen walked into the garden. He wasn't very fond of large groups. In fact the only reason he went to the stupid party was to see a girl he has practically loved since he first saw her. The girl hadn't shown to the party, well that he could see. The young man had wandered around the party trying to find her, but had no luck. As the young man walked through the garden he couldn't help but smile at the beauty of it. He loved practically everything about nature. Well after spending so much time on the run when he was kid how could he not love it? As Abdias turned a corner he spotted the girl he had been waiting for at the party. The young man's heart nearly jumped out of his chest when he laid his eyes on her. She was extravagantly beautiful tonight. As Abdias moved closer he made sure to keep breathing regular and not make himself look like a fool. Of course there were alot of other girls that Abdias thought were drop dead gorgeous, but none of them rivaled this girl. He was almost to her now, his hands were slightly sweating. What was wrong with him? He was the son of Zeus! Girls shouldn't do this to him so easily. Then out of no where a vine grew across in front of his feet and tripped him. What the hell? Where had that come from? Abdias looked back and he nearly screamed. It was Eleanor...the scariest daughter of Dionysus at the school. She has had her eyes on Abdias ever since he arrived at the school all those years ago, and he rejected her because she really wasn't all that attractive..and was a complete snob. Abdias jumped up and scowled at her..."That wasn't nice Eleanor...." Abdias then turned to look at Alex, and her extreme beauty.

Alex was engrossed in her sketching but when she heard a rustle and the thud of someone hitting the ground she paused and looked up. She turned her attention to the one that had fallen and smiled, Abdias. She had assisted in his safety before he came to the academy and she had to admit, he was fairly handsome. She then spotted the female, Eleanor. She scowled and scooted away then stood up and set her sketchpad on the bench before gracefully strolling to Abdias' aid. When she reached Abdias' side he scolded Eleanor and Alex arched a brow. She looked at Eleanor with a cold look, this look was one only a fate could give. She stood tall, her silver heels also gave her an inch or too so she looked bigger, "Hey. Why don't you go away." she snapped and put a protective arm around Abdias' shoulders. She gaver him a soft squeeze and just to show that Eleanor truely wasn't wanted here she placed a kiss on Abdias's cheek. "If you don't leave, I'll alter your string and give you nothing but bad luck." she was bluffing, but if she really wanted to, she probably could alter this woman's fate. She narrowed her gaze and if she had the power, there would probably be small laser beams, but she couldn't, but the threat was there just the same. Suddenly Alex's head throbbed some and she broke the gaze to tightly clench her eyes shut she then gasped as a small premonition flew across her mind. She took a deep breath and it passed. She didn't see what it was, but it didn't seem like it was all too pleasant. She shook her head and sent another glare towards Eleanor before gently pulling Abdias back, she hoped he would follow her, but knowing Eleanor, she'd probably follow too. Alex took a deep sigh and stepped between Eleanor and Abdias, she turned her back to Eleanor and looked at Abdias, her hazel eyes glittered, "Hi, not enjoying the party much?" she asked sweetly and softly took Abdias' hand into her own and kissed it.

Abdias nearly fainted when Alex kissed his cheek and hugged him tightly. It was one of his dreams. As Alex threatened Eleanor, Abdias was still in his day dream. Why had she kissed him? It wasn't like her. She always seemed to shy away when he got near, or would totally ignore his advances. Why would she change her mind now?
Eleanor looked at Ales with scorn. "You touch my love again and i will strangle you..."
Abdias returned to reality then. "Eleanor...i have no interest in you...really. Please just leave me alone." Then Alex grabbed his hand and places a kiss on it before moving away and walking down the stone walkway. The young man went to follow her, but heard Eleanor's footsteps behind him. "ELEANOR! You follow me...and i will make your life a living hell...Get the notion that me and you have any chance of being together out of your mind...cause it will never happen" He then walked off to follow Alex.
Eleanor looked at Abdias. Why was he being so mean to her all the time? Why didn't he like her? Was she really that ugly? She was a daughter of Dionysus. But what did that get her? The ability to grow vines and make exquisite wines? She wasn't worth anything, but she hated to admit it. A tear rolled down her cheek and she turned to run back to her dorm.
Abdias had caught up to Alex and was beat red. She had kissed him...TWICE. It was like a dream come true. But he couldn't help but question it. Of course the half of him that was of his father's blood kept trying to make him look masculine and strong..but the mortal half was just that...mortal and normal. Why had she kissed him? Was it just to make Eleanor jealous? The young man had to find out.

Alex led him back to the bench, she felt a little bad for treating Eleanor that way, but she crossed the line when she had tripped Abdias. Even though they were safe at school, Alex still felt a slight need to protect Abdias. She turned and kneeled down to look at Abdias' knees, when she found no injury she stood up nd took his hand and ran her fingers across their surface slowly, "Are you hurt?" she asked calmly and looked into his eyes, she then quickly looked away and returned her attention to his hand, there were no wounds that she could see, but with a sudden fall she couldn't be too sure. She smiled slightly at the confused look on his face, That's right... I kissed him" it dawned on her and she stepped inward, releasing his hands and withoug thinking she put her arms around his neck, "Abs, you are very special, you're-" she stopped when her head throbbed, No, not now. Stupid powers. She then realized why and moved away from Abdias. Her ability to see a person's future through touch was a horrible curse. She turned and it looked like she was about to cry. She then spotted the mask and remembered that it neutralized her powers. She turned and lifted her hand, "Wait. Stay there. Just one sec." she spoke hastily and walked away, picking up the mask and putting it back on then adjusted it, the only negative was now it was hiding her face, but it was better to have no abilitied for this portion. Alex returned and placed her arms around his neck again, "Abs, I need to tell you something, but..." she paused again, Wait, ugh, he's not Zeus. He's always flirting... it has to be now. This is the only time I'll be able to be this close to him with no staff, no powers. I have to she mentally told herself and took a deep breath. "Ok. so... IreallyreallylikeyouIknowthismightbeabadtimebutIneedtosaythis!" she said rather quickly, it came out in a blurr and even she had to pause for a moment to figure out what she'd just said to him. She stepped back and looked at him, hopefull she'd get a positive reaction; unlike the last time she told someone she had a crush on them, last time the kid threw water on her. She dug her heels into the ground and prepared for the worst.

Abdias was surprised at her worry for him. Why did she care about him? He was a strong young man. He could take care of himself. But he thought about how she may react to him acting all big and bad. She checked his knees and hands. Or was she just looking at his hands while thinking of what she was going to say? This confused him. He liked her...hell he may even love the girl. But now that she was showing affection and worry towards him...he could barely handle it. Abdias looked into Alex's eyes...they were beautiful. Well everything about her was beautiful. Her hair, her eyes, her overall figure was amazing in every way.
He was almost about to faint from pure excitement. She was trying to tell him something. Something that she must have been finding very hard to tell him. She looked embarrassed, or maybe it was just that she was shy to tell him how she felt? But what was with the mask? Why did she wear the mask again? Oh ya...the mask was to block her abilities..but why was she using it now? He wanted to see her beautiful eyes. Was she trying to hid her face for some reason? This bothered the young man slightly. But when she finally said what she was having trouble saying before..he was out of breath all of a sudden. She liked him...she liked him alot. Why hadn't she told him earlier? Why had she hid the truth from him? All these thoughts running through his head as he passed out.What! He had fainted from the truth. She had liked him all this time. And all he could do was faint? He was pathetic in every possible way.

Alex watched as his excitement rose, then he fainted and Alex almost screamed. The weight of him collapsing pulled her down as well and now she was laying on top of him. She felt tons of blood rush to her face, Oh...my...gosh! I'm on top of him. Jeez! Way to go Alex, you made him pass out. she struggled for a moment then managed to jerk her hands out from behind his neck. She was clueless and moved so her body weight was no longer on top of his sternum and she watched for a moment, when he didn't regain conciousness she started to panic. Oh jeez, oh jeez! Wait. Stop. It's ok. He's just fainted. she calmed herself down and peeled her white gloves off. She walked over to the fountain and dipped the gloves into the fridged water, "Oh man, Hermes is gunna be kinda upset if I ruin these gloves, but better the gloves than the dress. she told herself then nodded and walked back over to Abdias. She got onto her knees and propped his head on her lap and gently dapped his forhead with the wet cloth, hopefully this would wake him up. She applied some pressure to his chest but just enough to keep him from sitting up when he awoke. She looked at him, he looked so peaceful and again without thinking she leaned over and pressed her slightly glossed lips to his, "I think I love you Abs." she whispered and sat up straight, gently dapping his forehead and cheeks with the wet gloves.

Alex was holding him...she was really holding him! This had nearly been his dream ever since meeting her years previous. He had to act cool. If he could just...wait..did she just say she loved him? No he must have heard wrong. There was no way she could LOVE him. Well it wasn't like Abdias was complaining or anything. But it was just so...surprising. The young man started to think about his situation. Not only had she said she liked him, but now she was holding him worrying about him, trying to wake him up, and saying she loved him? And the only thing he could do was faint? "Way to go Abdias..just blow it in front of your dream girl" he thought to himself. The young man needed to think of something.
Opening his eyes, Abdias looked at her. He truly looked at her. Her beautiful Hazel eyes. Her flowing extravagant bronze hair. Her flawless slightly tanned skin. She looked so beautiful in the light of the shining moon. It gave her a sort of mystical look. As the young man continued to look at his potential love he couldn't get over how beautiful she was. Then something caught his eye..what was it? When he completely saw it, it shocked him. Was she crying? Were those tears in her eyes? He had to do something...he had to do something quick. But what? "Come on idiot...think...think...she shouldn't be crying. She is worrying over you ab. Do something...anything...." he thought to himself. Then a thought came to him. It would be a gamble. Either she would get mad at him and he would blow his only chance of ever getting with her...or she would return what he offers her. Raising his arm, Abdias put his right hand on the back of Alex's neck and brought her down closer to him. His eyes on locked on her's. Raising his head off the ground, he met her half way. And with as much affection and love he could muster, he gave her the best gift he could offer at the moment, his first kiss. Pulling back he looked her in the eyes. "I think i love you to Alex..."

When Abdias opened his eyes Alex let out a deep sigh of relief, she blushed a little as he stared at her, Do I have something on my face? she thought toherself and brushed her hand across her face, there was nothing. Finally he moved and she felt the palm of his hand on the nape of her neck and it brought goosebumps across her body. She took a breath and moved with his pull and then she felt his lips to her's and it sent long tingles across her spine. For a moment she felt like she was floating but then a flash of pain and she pulled away, did he just shock her? She blinked, I think I love you too Alex[/b] she heard the words but felt slightly dazed by them.
"I'm sorry, could you repeat that..." she took another deep breath and started to feel the restriction being caused by the dress. She pressed her hand against her stomach and took another deep breath. She felt lightheaded, Oh no, don't you dare pass out Alex. Ugh, why'd I have to choose this dress. Bloody corset... she thought to herself and closed her eyes, it only got worse and leaned forward, "This.... might seem strange.... but I need you to... untie... my dress." she said in short gasps, she'd tied the corset too tight and now it was constricting her ribs and breathing heavily plus corsets generally equals passing out. She shut her eyes tight and felt more and more light headed each moment. She rested her head on her shoulder and inhaled deeply, trying to get more oxygen into her lungs, but each time the corset remained tight. Alex pulled away and looked Abdias over and smiled, "You are so handsome" she stated and strained to focus. She refused to pass out. "I'm sorry it took me so long to.... tell you"/b] she was pressing out statements, she started shaking and closed her eyes.[/color]

Abdias was knocked out of his feeling of light and giddiness when Alex asked him to repeat himself. And what was this feeling in his fingertips..he recognized it. This tingling ticklish feeling...oh no..he didn't. "Crap..." Abdias said as he looked at the little sparks of static flickering between his finger tips. This always happened when he got mad or excited. But why did this need to happen right now of all times?
As the young man looked back to the girl of his dreams his heart sank. Only part of the phrase she spoke registered to him "need you to... untie... my dress.".
"Wait..what?" His mind focused all of a sudden. What was she saying? Didn't the normal way of things suggest dinner or lunch first? Then the young man noticed her desperate breathing and he understood perfectly what was going on. This girl had always been conscious of her physical appearance, and as such she normally wore something that gave her the illusion of looking thinner. Abdias looks around to make sure no one was around and pulled the ceremonial dagger from his side and cut the dress and corset from her body. Luckily she was wearing an silk type dress undergarment underneath. "Breath Alex..please..slow, deep breaths. Take your time. Don't hyper ventilate."

Alex gave him a stern look when he cussed but relaxed some. She got tense when she saw the flash of metal. She jerked back some and gasped. When Abdias moved and cut the strands that were tying the dress and corset on. She took a deep breath and relaxed, leaning into him. She was suddenly very greatful for the semi-see through silk slip she was wearing. She coughed some then opened her eyes and kissed Abdias softly, but with the dress gone her powers returned and she quickly jerked away from him. Images flashed through her head and she curled forward letting out a pained squeak. She gasped and opened her eyes and quickly grabbed Abdias's shoulders. "Don't start a fight. Abs. please. I need you to promise me you won't start a fight!" she was speaking rather quickly but she was looking him directly in the eyes. Here eyes were slightly cloudy, like she was blind but it was different becuase if you looked very closely inside the cloud you could see movement, like two people fighting. There was a flash in her eyes and Alex closed her eyes. When she opened them again the cloud was gone and her eyes were back to normal.

Evander was wandering around the party, checking out the girls in their small outfits. He was loving it. He nearly got into a fight with a son of posiedon but walked away after tripping him. He walked outside and instantly felt the cool moister in the air. He inhale and felt his lungs expand. He heard some commotion and then Alex's voice sung into his ears and he grinned deviously. "Oh? Alex, Alex. Fate is going to kiss my lips tonight." he cooed to himself then turned and walked towards the noise. Evander had no interest in costumes so he passed up the "magical evening". He was wearing long, dark blue jeans, but due to a soda stain he had removed his shirt. His hair was spiked slightly so the blue streaks in his hair strongly stood out. He walked across the courtyard and into the garden and stopped suddenly when he saw a young man. His eyebrows furrowed together and he blinked, Alex's costume was sliced off and laying to the side and she was breathing heavily, leaning against another man. Evander took a step forward and chuckled. "My, my. Alex I didn't think you had that in you. How long have you known this schmuck? A couple days and you're already having sex with him?" he stated dryly and ran a hand over his hair. He spotted the fountain nearby. He didn't smell anything that would have been a result of such... actions so he knew nothing had actually happened but he really enjoyed making her blush.
Evander leaned into the gate and smiled at Alex, he was completely ignoring Abdias. He saw the small spark burn on Alex's bottom lip and put two and two together, this guy was a son of Zeus. Evander tensed up slightly and gritted his teeth some, he knew the kind of temper that the children of Zeus had, but if this kid threw the first punch, he'd deal with him.
