Athena
It's so fucking bright
"Gosh I hate the sun" I mutter, angrily stalking towards my window to push the curtains back in place before tucking myself back into my nice and plushy bed.
I toss and turn for a moment before I realise in great despair that my sleep has been robbed and now I can't go back to bed like your average teen, 'damn you for giving me these sensitive eyes mother' I think before I decide to just get up and start my day in the morning like a fuctional human.
I walk over and open my blinds once again only to be blinded once again, by that damn. fucking. sun. "Gosh damn you, why won't you just explode and take out the world with you? Why must you torture the innocent like this?" I mutter, now completely devoid of the desire to sleep at all as I just stand there, willing my eyes to get used to the brightness.
Once I'm done with that, I trudge over to my bathroom, getting ready for the day before I hear a knock on my bedroom door and a distinct voice behind it.
"Athena honey, Ms.Sylvia is here for you" the old housekeeper, Mrs. Emily Johnson yells, just incase I wasn't able to hear through both my bedroom and bathroom door.
"Bring her out to the drawing room Mrs. Emily, I'm in the shower right now, I'll be right out but bring her some snacks in the mean time, nothing with corn though shes allergic" I yell back, internally panicking 'Viv?!? What was she doing here?!? I'm not ready for this. She isn't the type to come without calling first either. Oh who am I kidding?!? she is the type to visit without calling first but why now?!? I'm nowhere near ready, will I have time to do my makeup? Oh my days, thats enough showering for one day, hurry thea! Hurry!!!'
"Sure Thea honey, just be out soon, i doubt an old lady lady like myself will be enough to keep the young mistress slyvia occupied for long" Mrs. Emily yelled back again before leaving to attend to Sylvia.
I get out of the shower, hurriedly put my makeup on, on the verge of tears after messing up my eyeliner multiple times. When belatedly realizing that I was fucking. bleeding. 'No time like when you have somewhere to be to get your period' I curse angrily whilst showering again carefully, trying not to ruin my makeup or hair that i now had in this effortless looking spiky bun, and then throw on a pad and underwear this time, and then go back to throwing my clothes around, looking for something, anything that'll make me look good, before finally finding and settling on a black turtleneck, a mini leather skirt and thigh high socks along with a shit ton of jewelry. Which did, admittedly, look a ridiculous with my hello kitty house slipper and i was also very aware of how over dressed i was but hey, as my mum would say "If your not overdressed, your undressed".
And I managed to do all of that in the span of under 30 minutes, that has to be a record.
I then rush downstairs in my house slippers, which, spoiler alert, was not one of my best ideas considering how I almost trip and plummel face down the stairs. Keyword being 'almost' and thank fuck I have good instincts and decided to grab the railing.
I then at a decidedly more normal pace, make my way to the drawing room, knocking thrice to let her know it was me before opening the door.
I'm so royally screwed
'Shes oh lord shes gorgeous, with all sorts of types of glitter sticking to every fiber of her being(not her usual kind, thats for sure), her usually long straight brown hair blown out, making it shorter than it's usual length and manging to frame her face perfectly to make her look even more gorgeous than usual. And her alabaster skin is practically glowing in the jeans and borderline scandalous crop top she was wearing which wouldve definitely got her written up for if she had worn it to school. And oh my days! she's smiling! She's smiling at me! Quick thea! Don't just stand there and look stupid say something!!! What was that saying? If your nervous, just picture everybody naked? Wait no-fuck, she'd look amazing naked. Thats no help at all, lord shes starung stupid stupid thea! Fucking say something'
"Uhm, hi, long time no see" I ever so eloquently manage to squeak out 'nice going Thea you fucking wreak'
"Hey you~" She repiles in her usual tone with unwavering confidence, smiling that goddamn smile at me yet again, lord knows this is terrible for my heart.
