So, I wrote this story back when I was in sixth grade, so about six years ago. This has a terrible plot, terrible grammar, and I'm not even sure I put this in the right category.

You can go ahead and flame me on this story. I won't feel bad because I know it's horrible.


A woman with long blonde hair and deep gray eyes was running away from a man with short dark black hair. The man was trying to stop her. "Athena," he had yelled, "stop running!"

The lady named Athena fell on her knees in the her flower garden and began to cry. "Stay away from me, Poseidon," she sobbed.

"I'll leave once you tell me why you were running away from me," Poseidon promised. "Actually answer one question and I'll turn around and leave."

Athena looked at the man standing before her. "What's the question?"

"Why do we fight over things that are pointless?" She was shocked by this question. She wasn't sure how to answer and that. In fact she has never thought about that and wondered what he had meant.

"Can you elaborate on the question?"

"Why do we fight in the first place," he simplified. Athena her eyes turned wide in realization."When we do fight it is over something utterly stupid, why?"

"I'm not quite sure," she answered, "maybe because it feels natural?"

"It must be strange to answer a question with a question," he retorted. "I'll keep my promise and leave." Poseidon turned away from the beautiful goddess and walked away slowly. He acted like he regretted hearing her answer.

"I fight with you, to hide the feelings I hold for you!" Athena screamed at the retreating form.

Poseidon stopped and slightly turned his head toward her, "What do you mean 'feelings'?"

"Do I have to answer that," she whined. It was uncharacteristic for her to act like a child. The only other time she had was hundreds of years ago.

"If you want me to stay, then yes. If you want me to leave you, forever, then no." He didn't know why he was acting like he was. Athena was usually the one to act calm and he was the one that would lose his composure. "The roles have been switched," Poseidon thought.

The wisdom goddess started to cry even harder when he finished saying the second option. "I love you! I never express or showed this feeling because I am afraid that father will force me to stay away from you," she wiped away her tears, but more kept falling. "I'm afraid that he will kill you because I love you, his older brother! I'm afraid of so many things about this I don't even know where to begin or stop!"

Poseidon chuckled,"Like he could ever kill me."

"What do you mean?"

He smiled down at her. "I can easily take over his domain. I only let him win because I wanted the ocean. If I wanted to I could overthrow him in a heartbeat."

Athena glared at him. "You know what? Forget what I said. You apparently think you can beat him. And, most importantly, you don't understand what I feel for you so what's the poi-"

Her ranting was interrupted when a pair of lips met hers. She was shocked when she realized the pair of lips belonged to Poseidon. After a minute he pulled away and held her cheek in his hand. "Just shut up, 'Thena. I don't give a fuck about what Zeus would do to me. I do feel the same so don't you dare say I don't, got it?"

She nodded her head."Tell me you love me."

"I will scream it out loud if you want me to. I'd be more than happy to carve it on a necklace and give it you for a present. I would do anything you want me to to get it through that brainiac brain of yours. I love you!"

"I would be happy too, if you ask me a certain question," she boldly remarked.

Poseidon smiled and whispered into her ear the magic question,"Will you be my secret girlfriend?"

She smiled and kissed him. "Yes, I'll be your secret girlfriend until I feel like dumping you."

"Which will be-"

"Never," Athena finished for him.
