Unrequited Love

Owowoow got some Greek god stuff going on here. Is it accurate tho? Hell no. Basically
Michael- Aphrodite (but boi version)
And Rich- Ares
Yeah they're siblings in this but that just leads to platonic expensive headphones which is a yes. Also we're gonna skip over the fact that Ares and Aphrodite had like 5 kids together and that's sure as hell not happening here

Zeus was always the lady charmer from what Michael had heard. The man had over 30 kids and Michael happened to be one of them.

He was supposed to be the god of love and beauty and that definetly reflected in his appearance.

He had slightly curly chocolate brown hair, fair tan skin, light freckles dotted across his face that were practically non-existent and milk chocolate colored eyes that anyone could get lost in.

At first, his god name was going to be Aphrodite, but that seemed a little to girlish as his family had thought.

Of course, his name wasn't always Michael, it was (instead of Aphrodite) Arodite, which was pretty much just a genderbend of the original name he had.

He never really got attached to any of his siblings except for Ares, or Rich as he goes by now.

Rich was the god of war. He was a rambunctious, active little one but never failed to make Michael's day.

Michael was often the overseer of all relationships over the planet but it quickly became overwhelming, not to mention he had also gained a power he had only told Rich about.

While none of his parents (Well maybe Zeus) possessed such a trait, Michael had gained fire powers at birth. Kind of like Rich, he had a patch of hair was was discolored and would only shift colors based on his emotions. Normally, it stayed a white/peach color, which represented contentness.

However, as the job became more stressful, he started losing a grip on the control of his powers and started making rookie mistakes. Breaking up a couple, starting an abusive relationship, etc. His parents took notice and began to watch their son closely.

They weren't as...content with Michael when he was born. He had quickly gained the eyes of many over all his siblings and instead of being a female to be wed off somewhere else, he had been born a male, which tragically struck their plans.

One fateful day though, Michael had been having a particularly bad day trying to fix his mistakes that he found the best way to relieve steam was to set little things on fire as a vent method.

The guards overwatching him informed his parents and Michael was promptly expelled from the kingdom, left to fend for himself, as they had claimed he was nothing more than a disappointment and disgrace to the family.

Rich, angered by his parents decision, ran off to join Michael and help him survive on their own.

They both learned quickly that they can't trust anyone except each other. That others would only use them to their advantage and try to force them to use their powers for their own selfish needs.

As they boys traveled to their new home, Earth, they felt themselves age younger and younger. Perhaps it was the distance from their kingdom and Earth, or one of the gods/goddesses watching over them, they didn't know.

Rich and Michael swore to never be apart, and they intended to keep that promise, no matter what.

"Ma I'm off to school!" Michael called out and picked up his bag from the door, heading out.

Rich had gone on ahead because he had to do "something" (It was confessing to Jake. Michael had already known because of his ability but he wasn't gonna let Rich know that).

"Micha!" Someone called out and Michael immediately perked up, looking to his friend who was now speedily approaching him.

"Hey Jer-Bear!" Michael happily hugged his friend, hoping that this was a normal thing on Earth. He'd been here for a good number of years but when the Mells found out about Michael and Rich's abilities, they were practically locked in the house for their safety.

Of course they were permitted to have people over and go out, they would just be heavily lectured about it later on. Which they didn't mind.

Michael smiled as he saw a light pink dust his taller friends' cheeks. While Michael could easily find out who his crush was on, he wouldn't do that because it would be like an invasion of privacy (despite him doing it to literally everyone else).

"You ready to get to school?" Jeremy asked in a sarcastically enthusiastic voice, which caused Michael to giggle. Michael nodded and they walked off towards the building.

Now, the stripe of white hair he would've had (It was dyed for reasons) would've been bright pink at the moment, love and/or crushing. However, Michael would later on regret not checking who Jeremy had a crush on then, but for now we'll let the story unfold.

Now, I'm gonna have an angsty 2nd part and a fluff 2nd part as well (and anymore parts to finish the plot) but the angsty one is gonna be first because that's all I can fucking write good woops
