Mount Olympus [2]

Jace

I stand and leave a tip, "Keep the jacket for a little. Don't leave without my goodbye kiss either."

````````````````
Nic

I wrap an arm around her and kiss the top of her head, "It's okay. She's not just a demigod, Jacks, remember? She's half that and half of what I am. Maybe it made a difference."

Rayah

I nod, kissing him quickly, "Bye-Bye."

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Jackie

I think about it before nodding, "Yeah. You're probrably right."

Jace

I flash a smile and watch her leave before heading back to work.

```````````````
Nic

I rub her arm a little before kissing the top of her head again, "We don't know though. We'll see. I got my stuff the moment I was born. There's an amulet...but it was lost a while ago. My parents gave it to me, Jace, and Alyx to keep us under control."

Rayah

I get in the car and drive back to work. When I get there, they make me take off the Jacket. Sighing, I do. They bring a guy model out and they tell us we have to act like a couple.

He comes over and slings an arm around my shoulder, pulling me close. We do a couple pictures, and then it's time to go home. I change back into regular clothes and then jump back in the car, picking up the kids before going home. I get home and let the kids roam around the house and I plop down on the couch.

God...I smell like guy...

Jackie

I nod, thinking, "True. Maybe we an try it on her when she gets older," I smile.

Jace

Work flies by like usual and before I know it I'm home. I walk through the door to find Rayah and the twins already home. Something smells like... cologne?

`````````````````
Nic

I smile back and kiss her forehead, "Maybe."

Rayah

I flash a smile at Jace when he gets home and stand, "Hey."

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Jackie

Halee comes over and reaches for me to pick her up. I do and set her on my lap, braiding her brown hair.

Jace

I flash a smile at her and walk closer, smelling her, "Why do you smell like that, Rayah?"

``````````````
Nic

I smile at them and watch, finding it fascinating for some strange reason.

Rayah

I study him, "Smell like what?"

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Jackie

I glance at Nic, "She looks just like her father, huh?"

Jace

I think for a moment, "Another guy..."

```````````````
Nic

I flash a smile and shake my head, "Nah, she's beautiful like her mother."

Rayah

I swallow, "I smell like you, Jay..." I cross my arms.

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Jackie

I smile, "No. She's got eye's like her fathers."

Jace

I study her a moment before shaking my head and heading up to the bedroom. Changing out of my work suit, I slip on sweatpants and a tank top and head back downstairs into the office.

```````````````
Nic

I smile back and sigh, "Fine. She has my eyes. Everything else she got from you."

Rayah

I watch him and put on my own purfumes, to hopefully drown out the guy smell, and head downstairs after him. I see him in the office and wrap my arms around him from behind, kissing his shoulder, "What are you doing?"

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Jackie

I nod, "Fine. Whatever," I chuckle finishing her braid.

Jace

I close my eyes and take a deep breath, "Why can't you just be honest with me, Rayah? Why do you have to lie or hide stuff?"

````````````````
Nic

I smile and shake my head at her, kissing the top of my little girl's head.

Rayah

Offended by this, I let go of him and take a step back, my heart dropping. D-Did he just call me a liar.

I look away, not answering, and make my way out and to our room, "Bye."

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Jackie

I smile at him and Halee starts trying to braid my hair, giggling.

Jace

My heart sinks and I open my eyes, following her. I shut the door behind me and swallow, "Rayah... Please... I don't understand why you can't just tell me things. We're supposed to be honest with each other. Why can't we do that?"

```````````````
Nic

I watch, sighing, "As long as she doesn't try to braid my hair..."
