Mount Olympus

Rayah

I get my uniform on and grab my pomb-pombs, putting my hair in a high ponytail and putting blue converse on that match my blue and white uniform. I make my way to the school, hoping the game would help me get my mind off Jace.

Jace

I don't go to the game or the practice, not wanting to have to face her so soon.

Rayah

On my way there, I pass by Jace's house. I stop and am just about to drop by, when three guys push me against a wall.

"Oohh...look what we have here. A little cheerleader, I see." One of the guys said, pinning me down.

"Don't scream." The other one threatens, taking me by the wrists and pulling me to some kind of building.

And as they told me not to do, I screamed. They cover my mouth from behind and I scream again, this time not as loud.

Jace

My head shoots up at the sound of a scream. Rayah. I wipe my face off and bolt towards the muffled sound of it, finding a bunch of guys dragging her somewhere. Swearing, I freeze and pray that I'll have enough control this time. I jab my fists out and feel the light over come me again, temporarily blinding me as it does.

Don't hit Rayah again. Don't hit Rayah again. Don't hit Rayah again.

Rayah

The guys somehow fall to the ground and my eyes roll in the back of my head, fatigue taking over. I fall to the ground, uncontious.

Jace

When I can see again, the guys have been shoved into the building behind them in dents and Rayah laying unconscious on the ground. I bolt to her and take her in my arms, trying to wake her.

"Ray? Ray, please wake up. Please be okay," I beg.

Rayah

I moan, letting him know I was still breathing, and feel someone holding me. Not knowing who it is, I stirr and huff.

Jace

She moans but doesn't wake, which doesn't help me too much.

"Ray, please wake up," I beg, remembering about the kid... Oh god...would this have done something bad to it?

Rayah

Moaning again, my eyes slowly open. "Wh-What happened?"

Jace

"S-some guys...They took you," I say, "You were screaming."

Rayah

I swallow and pull him into a kiss. "I-I'm sorry," I say midkiss.

Jace

She kisses me and I have no clue what's going on. I let her, needing this so much.

"Don't apologize," I tell her, pulling back and setting my forehead against hers with my eyes closed, "Please don't. You scared the hell out of me. Don't let words come in between us again."

Rayah

I nod and kiss him again quickly. "D-Do you want to have a kid?" I ask, curious.

Jace

I flash a smile and kiss her back, "We don't have much of a choice, do we? But...yeah. I always dreamed of having a little boy and a little girl. Just...not when I was a kid myself."

Rayah

I nod, wanting to just spend time with him, and smile. "Can we hang out at your place? Maybe you can invite your brother over or something," I suggest.
