Athena hasn't talked in days

Ariel calls me everyday wondering if she's okay after what happened

It's been 3 days senses she's talked to any of us, she won't even talk to her mother

Zoe asks why she isn't talking but I can't give her a straight answer

What am I supposed to tell her that her daughter was in the grip of a mob boss and almost killed her?

No I would never do that

Every night Athena comes to bed and says not a word, she lays down the opposite way of me and goes to bed

She won't even talk to Mateo, which is like a little brother to her

I keep trying to talk to her but she refuses to speak to me. Her bright honey eyes just stare at me

There nothing there, not even a light in her eyes that always used to bright up the room

Walking into me and Athena's hotel room I find Athena picking out a dress for tonight's dinner

"I think you should go with the white dress" I broke the silence

She turned around with shock written all over her face

"Sorry I didn't mean to scare you, but I think the sparkly white one would look amazing on you" apologizing I scratched the back of my head

She gave me a small smile and nodded her head

Athena walked towards the bathroom with her dress in her hand and a makeup bag

I walked towards my closet and picked out an all back suit

Throwing my original shirt off on the bed I walk back over to my end table to grab socks

Then I find Athena staring at me, standing in front of the bathroom door with her jaw to her knees

"Like what you see princess?" I laugh

Her bright laugh that I've been in love with sense we were kids followed right behind mine, "Don't call me that handsome"

My stomach dropped and my jaw dropped

She talked to me

"You-you just talked to me" I stuttered

"And you just stuttered, that's a first" she giggled coming towards me

I sat on the edge on my bed while Athena stopped right in front of me

"Will you forgive me gorgeous?" I muttered giving her the puppy eyes hoping to god she'll forgive me

She stared at me with her beautiful eyes, then a small smirk appeared on her face

Athena got even closer bring her hands to my shoulders

"Yes I do, you saved my life and I'll never forget that. You did something no one else would have done. So In return I'll forgive you and give you a second chance" she whispered with a big fat smile on her face

My jaw dropped, my heart was beating a million times per minute. Happiness, and excitement bursted out of me

"Are you being for real?" I spoke

She nodded her head getting onto my lap, pulling me into a hug

I wrapped my hands around her waist as her hands went around my neck

Bringing her even closer I hug her tighter then ever

I never want to lose this girl again

Pulling away I look into her bright eyes. She's back, the girl I've had a crush on for years is finally back

We stared at each other for a moment before I broke the silence, "Fuck it"

In a instant I smashed my lips onto her soft ones

Deepening the kiss I place my hand on her lower back

What surprised me was that she kissed me back, her lips flowed in a rhythm with mine

Athena's plumed soft lips were addictive.

Pulling away I look into her eyes, "you're so beautiful"

"Yeah whatever" she whispered before smashing her lips onto mine

I then got up from the bed holding her right around my wait, I turned around placing Athena gently onto my bed with me on top of her

Not breaking the sweet kiss I rub circles into the side of her hip

A slight moan comes out of her gorgeous lips while circling her hip

She deepened the kiss but then pulled away, "We have to get ready for dinner"

I rolled my eyes and went right back into kissing the prettiest girl in the world

"Fuck dinner" I said in between each kiss

She giggled against my lips squeezing my shoulder

Athena backed away once again telling me that she needed to get ready

"Your snake tattoo is really pretty"  she said

Looking down at my shoulder I look at the long snake that wraps around my shoulder

A small smile lifts from my lips as I look back down at Athena

"Now move I have to get ready handsome" she laughed pushing me away

Before letting her go I gave her one last kiss

I got up from the comfy bed and watched her walk back into the bathroom

Taking a deep breath I run my fingers threw my hair, "Oh my god"

Shaking the warm feeling inside off I get into my black suit

Hopping right back onto the bed I wait for Athena to get ready

Then the bathroom door slid open, I then find a short, beautiful brunette standing in the door way

Looking her up and down I see a goddess, my jaw drops and my heart beats fast

"Hey pretty boy, my eyes are up here" she laughed

Looking up at her I see her hair curled and slight back up on her face

"You're stunning mi amor" I hummed

She smiled as a light shade of pink rub up to her face

"Yeah whatever let's go to dinner handsome"
