You had always been superior against other people. You were strong, yet lean, and agile like a swift lioness coming in for the kill. You had always prayed and sacrificed to the greek gods, but for some reason, you always sacrificed the most to Hermes and Ares. You had always thought that it was because you had their qualities. Think about it- Hermes was the god of travel, and your moved pretty fast. Ares is the god of war, the brute force part, and you were strong in your own way.

Oh? Someone?

A drunk person, by the smell of it, staggered up to you, obviously thinking they could dominate you. Even if you were in a dark alley, you still have got the upper hand... mostly because the person was damn drunk!

Wow... you thought. Do people really think I'm that weak? Well, I guess, I better check out the mirror to check it out...

Once you smashed the guy's head aginst the brick wall and heard sirens.

'Aw hell naw... not this again!' you thought.

Many people had tried to take you before, and they always ended up beaten in jail. You didn't want to talk to the police at this hour, so you went up the fire escape and onto the roof. But that's when you saw the figure of a 21 year old man who was seemingly interested in you.

'Ain no way I'm interacting with people today!' you protested in your thoughts.

You observed the guy and noticed he had winged sandals and a robe. At this moment, you thought you were going crazy. But when you saw his shadow and he was an actual person... you whished you were crazy.

Iiiiii hope he doesn't notice me...

You plopped down at the edge and laid down, silently observing his features. Because even if you didn't want to interact with people, you thought he was interesting. You noticed the way his soft hair billowed in the wind, and you slightly blushed, knowing full well that you met your match. You were smart in that way. You could see a pink tint on his face in the moonlight, as he tried not to look at you.

So you decided to have a race. 

"Hey, wanna race? Winner gets 10 bucks!"

You jumped up in a flash, slowly outpacing the man who had no head start.

You thought, 'Wow, he's good. He actually can keep up with me!'

You started to pick up speed, and soon you was running like hell was right on your tail. You hadn't had this much fun in a while. You were jumping from rooftop to rooftop, the man following close by. The familiar burn came back, and brought its friend, energy. In that moment, you felt like you could run the world and still win, passing cars on the highway. 

"H-hey! I-I give up... fine!"

The young man was breathing heavily as he snapped you out of your thoughts. You could tell that he put a lot into this to catch up to you. You smiled, "Heyy... pay up!" 

"What? No way! You should be paying me for the fun time!"

You blushed, as this man was like you.

"It was nice to meet you, I'm Y/N, what about you?"

The young man blushed deeply and managed "H-hermes"

What.

"U-uh... do you want a ride?"

An luxury car pulled up, with the nameplate of 'Hermes1'. The young man looked desperate to change the topic, so you agreed. The rain broke through the silence in the car, pattering on the window.

"Interested in me? Wanna go out?"
