Greek Life Academy

Chapter seven

“What?” I asked in disbelief

“Come hang out with me, I want to be the first to take you to Mount Olympus” Achilles told me and took my hand

I gasped lightly as he intertwined his fingers between mine, he was holding my hand so gently like he was scared to add any pressure as if he would break my hand if he did, I intertwined my with his I was staring so long at our hands I didn't even realize we were walking side by side walking to the exit.

“Wait” I told him and we stopped he didn’t let go of my hand which I was grateful for

“I still have classes” I told him worried he would just walk away forcing me back to class

“Oh don’t worry about it, If you're with me no one will say anything” Achilles ensured that as we walked out of the campus and walked to the exit, As we walked I saw a man about to say something but kept his man shut when he was holding my hand.

We walked past a park and I heard kids playing and laughing, as we walked past the park we then passed by some nice houses.

They were your ideal houses, The house one would be consider the American dream, Big house that probably had 5 rooms inside, a freshly cut lawn with a porch table and chairs that was probably used for tea parties, and they all had white picket fences.

Each house seemed straight out of a Garden Magazine his mom would keep but never read.

“That's my house” Achilles told me as we stopped in front of a blue and white house, I saw a car in the driveway and I wonder which of his parents were home

“Your house is nice” I said and looked at the mailbox which was of coursed match the house but I saw a small red paint mark that seemed to be the size of a child’s on the side that immediately caught my attention

“Achaion? Is that your last name?” I asked

“Yep” He said as we began walking again

“So your full name is Achilles Achaion?” I asked as we left the cul-de-sac and went back to the street

“No actually Achilles is my middle name” He told me

“Then what's your first name? I asked

“Wouldn’t you like to know” He winked as we walked up to a sign that said

“Welcome To Mount Olympus”

We walked inside and I immediately felt the cool air as we entered the building, and I heard loud footsteps of feet hitting the floor and people chattering.

It wasn’t like any mall I’ve ever been to. Usually the Malls I went to were big, maybe even two stories but this place looked like it could be an apartment.

As we walked  I saw all types of shops I’ve only heard of but never seen; they were all expensive places like Gucci, Chanel, and some he never heard of.

As we walked I realized we were still holding hands, I looked at his face and he seemed unfazed by it so I didn’t say anything.

“Okay were here” Achilles smiled and I realized we were at what looked to be an Arcade

“You wanted to play at an Arcade?” I asked as we walked in together
