[indent]Tess found herself at a loss for words as Abe complimented her and Dusty. And just when she thought she’d be done blushing. As the son of Zeus dragged them to the couch and sat them both down, she refrained from yelping in surprise. She most definitely had not expected that. Luckily, Dusty kept on her best behavior while introducing herself to Abe. Well, it was Dusty’s best behavior, so there was obviously much to be desired.

She realized after Dustyn excused herself, it was her turn to begin talking. [i][b][color=palegreen]Oh gods. Oh gods. Okay Tess, don’t mumble, don’t stammer, eye contact but not too much. You’ve got this,[/color][/b][/i] she thought, tucking a lock of hair behind her ear. [color=palegreen][b]”Well, I guess it’s my turn,”[/b][/color] she said with a nervous chuckle. [color=palegreen][b]”I’m Tess. Well, I guess I already said that. But, well I’m a daughter of Artemis, which is weird because she’s a virgin goddess, but hey, I’m nothing if not a miracle. I’m from this really small town in Michigan which is in the middle of nowhere, and I like long walks on the beach, and I’m rambling,”[/b][/color] she said, looking down at her lap.

[i][b][color=palegreen]Gods Tess! One cute guy and you turn to mush! Grow a pair![/color][/b][/i] She took a deep breath and looked up, straight into Abe’s eyes. [color=palegreen][b]”Sorry, I know I seem like a bit of a nutjob right now, but I promise, I’m mostly sane,”[/b][/color] she said with a small laugh.

All the while she was talking, Abe kept a straight, slight curve of a smile. As he scooted just somewhat closer, the Son of Zeus laughed. “[color=mediumpurple]Don’t worry about it. Being sane is overrated, anyways. In this ever-changing world, it’s the ones who have a few screws loose that are the most interesting.[/color]” Abe openly stated, “[color=mediumpurple]besides, you’re cute when you’re like that.[/color]” Yet again the unknowing flirtatious Abe strikes. “[color=mediumpurple]As for myself, well my mom is a politician, so you could imagine how utterly dull that was.[/color]” The sarcasm was real. “[color=mediumpurple]Of course, I’m sure you know my father is the dick of all dicks, Zeus. Mr. Lightning Bolt, Mr. If-I-Can’t-Have-Something-I’ll-Cause-A-Literal-Storm.[/color]” Abe said that with the least amount of affection demigodly possible. “[color=mediumpurple]Hm, what else? Oh yeah, the 90s and 2000s rock. Anyone who says otherwise is probably dull as an overused nail.[/color]” he said. He placed his back against the couch, letting the cushion absorb his body weight. He did look towards Tess, though. “[color=mediumpurple]So, Dusty’s quite the character, huh?[/color]” Abe asked nonchalantly.

Tess rolled her eyes as Abe mentioned Dusty. [color=palegreen][b]”Quite the character? That’s being nice,”[/b][/color] she said, laughing. [color=palegreen][b]”She’s cool though, I mean, she was one of the first people I met here so she’s basically a sister to me,”[/b][/color] she said with a grin. As much as she wanted to smack Dusty for how much she embarrassed her, she couldn’t help but find it endearing. [color=palegreen][b]”So, tell me about this sister that’s coming over. Is she anything like you?”[/b][/color] she asked, finally getting a bit more comfortable about her insanely flirtatious roommate.

“[color=mediumpurple]My sister? Like me?[/color]” Abe suddenly burst into a fit of laughter. “[color=mediumpurple]I’m sorry, but she’s probably the furthest from being like me than one possibly could.[/color]” Abe might have said that out loud, but the more he was thinking about it, the more he was putting certain pieces together. The two of them were probably more alike than he would like to believe. “[color=mediumpurple]I mean, fuck, maybe she isn’t too different. We both suffer from anger issues when the wrong person is brought up.[/color]” Abe was now a bit flabbergasted. it was now sinking in even further. They weren’t so different after all. 

Reeling from the sudden realization, Abe leaned forward from the cushion, and continued to keep his eyes upon Tess’ face. “[color=mediumpurple]Let’s change subjects.[/color]” Abe swiftly said, “[color=mediumpurple]have your eyes always had that sparkle in them?[/color]” Abe asked, unknowingly leaning closer to get a closer look at them.

Tess blushed as Abe leaned in. [i][b][color=palegreen]Just when you thought you had it under control[/color][/b][/i] she thought. Biting her lip, she looked him in the eye, trying to retain some of the confidence she’d mustered just moments before. [color=palegreen][b]”I don’t know. Have you always been such a flirt, or are pretty redheads just your type?[/b][/color] she asked, winking.

[i][b][color=palegreen]Oh hell. A wink? Really Tess? What is this, the 20’s? People don’t wink anymore, Christ almighty![/color][/b][/i] She was screaming at herself internally, but she kept her face calm, not willing to ruin this moment just yet. I mean, she was literally centimeters from Abe Rothschild’s face, the same face she’d been admiring for the past three years of her life. She’d be damned if she let her nerves ruin that.

At first Abe was going to say something in response to that flirt comment, but he stopped for a moment. Instead, Abe got as close as he possibly could to Tess, his hand now gently placed on her outer-thigh. The sexual tension was so thick that you could cut it with a knife; even still some would still be left for the two to deal with.

“[color=mediumpurple]You assume too much. It’s not just any redhead that gets to see this side of me, but ones who prove to be …[i]interesting[/i] enough to warrant such compliments - like you, Tess Galloway.[/color]” Abe said, gently asserting his body over hers, letting the heat of the moment guide them.  Abe stared into her eyes for just one last moment. The Son of Zeus was taking charge. His head was lowering, all outside noise becoming mute static.

Barging in with frustration written all over her face, her hair tied up in a tight, clean pony tail, Cecily growled, “[color=#FBEC5D]Abe! You won’t believe who my--[/color]” Halting in position, she looked at the scene before her. Her brother was about to make KISSY face with some stranger. Although her face was completely stoic, there was obvious electricity in her eyes that made the color shift from hazel to golden in a matter of seconds. How should she react? Her brother was a flirt by heart and didn’t even know it. And here you have some nobody trying to get all cozy with him like she [i]knew[/i] him. The redhead dimwit wasn’t even trying to get to know him. Says a lot about the girl, in Ceil’s opinion. Today was a fan-fucking-tastic day so far!
 
“[color=#FBEC5D]Hold the phone.[/color]” With a catastrophic storm brewing on her insides, Ceil closed the door not so gently, but not necessarily a slam either. She let unsettling silence fill the room before making her next move. Crossing her arms like a parent ready to scold her child, Ceil approached agonizingly slow with a [i]serene[/i] smile on her olive skin face. Her expression could make anyone uneasy.
 
With her now golden orbs, she captured the green eyes of her brother’s roommate for a good long moment, letting her presence settle in. Did this girl have no idea who she was alone with? Obviously, she wasn’t the brightest woman to walk this campus. With a simple glance, she pointed daggers at her stupid brother making sure his damn blue eyes were looking at her and [b]no one[/b] else. Her orbs was so tempted to turn violet, they probably were flickering with the building rage within her tiny body. When violet encompassed her brooding stare, that’s when people knew shit was going to get real. She would refrain from using any electricity – for now.  
 
“[color=#FBEC5D]Looks like you got an easy one here, [i]brother[/i].[/color]” With obvious disappointment, she addressed Tess while still looking at her blood with a challenging glare, “[color=#FBEC5D]It’s too bad you didn’t give him something to work for. Easy girls are quite disposable. Isn’t that right, [i]Son of [b]Zeus[/b][/i]?[/color] The undeniable current between siblings made the mood escalate another octave.  
 
Tess was in shock. She’d literally just been about to make out with the guy of her dreams when his goddamn sister comes in ranting and raving. [i][b][color=palegreen]Why have I been cursed this way? Why?[/color][/b][/i] And before she even knew it, the dark haired girl was calling her a skank. And granted, it wasn’t like she was being the most pure girl in the world right now but who the hell was she to slut shame her?

She stood up quickly, so she was standing face to face with this [i]madwoman[/i] and looked her in the eye. [b][color=palegreen]”I’m sorry, but have you ever heard of knocking? It’s the goddamn twenty first century! Learn some manners![/color][/b] Tess’s face was hot, and every decent part of her was yelling for her to stop. Unfortunately, her temper was at the steering wheel right now, and had the pedal to the metal.

[color=palegreen][b]”And another thing! I don’t remember you being my goddamn mother so who the hell are you to call me easy! It’s not like I’m sitting here naked! We hadn’t even kissed, thanks to you!”[/b][/color] Tess’s voice was high pitched, and louder than a newborn baby crying for it’s mom, and she had no intention of lowering it. She was pissed. She’d just gotten herself cockblocked by this nut bag, and she was looking for a fight.

Did this mother fucking bitch know who the fuck she was talking to? Rather than raise her voice, Cecily expression darkened and her tone was unusually calm, “[color=#FBEC5D]You’re just upset I got your panties in a bunch, [i]sweetheart[/i].[/color]” The room was no longer at safe levels of emotions - nope, shit skyrocketed when there was two irrational women giving each other death glares. “[color=#FBEC5D]That’s cute though, that you think you actually have a chance with my brother.[/color]” She gave a kittenish grin, almost daring the Artemis’ bitch to touch her. 

“[color=#FBEC5D]As long as you’re his roommate, you’ll be seeing more of me. Do you really want me to show you the difference between Zeus and Artemis?[/color]” She brought her hands to her sides and the energy began to course through her body and to her hands, just waiting for this idiot to touch her. Her glare dared her to. 

“[color=mediumpurple]Fighters, back to your neutral corners.[/color]” Abe cut between his sister and roommate, even if he had to forcibly nudge his way between them.

He didn’t like what was happening. Both of them equally as hotheaded (from what he was forced to observe, that was). Cecily came in without even knocking and starting going off on Tess like she was a jealous girlfriend or something. First off, nothing happened - well, granted something [i]would’ve[/i] happened if Cecily had arrived a moment or two later, but still! Abe was the one who initiated it, so why isn’t she going off on him? 

Abe sighed, looking at both his sister and roommate, each arm keeping them an arm’s length away from each other. He had his left hand pressed against Cecily’s chest and his right hand against Tess’. His head kept on going back and forth to them, making sure they weren’t going to maul him for trying to keep the peace.

“[color=mediumpurple]This is a bit much, isn’t it, Cecily? I mean, even for you, this was a bit over-the-top. You came in here at my request, so maybe i should have controlled myself--[/color]” Abe then looked to Tess, “[color=mediumpurple]my apologies for that.[/color]” he went back to Cecily,”[color=mediumpurple]--but that still doesn’t excuse this, Cecily. You acted like a jealous girlfriend - not my sister. I..don’t even know what to say to you right now.[/color]” Abe said, a tone of disappointment in his voice.

Although his tone and words did pierce her heart, she wouldn’t show that. Instead she returned the favor by looking at him with matching disappointment, “[color=#FBEC5D]You’re just like him.[/color]” she muttered. Slapping her brother’s hand off of her, she shook her head, “[color=#FBEC5D]I’ll go tell someone else about what Price did to me. I’ll talk to you later.[/color]” With that, she left the room, quieter than she entered. 

That hit him hard. Abe felt it travel through his body like a snake that was priming towards its pray to strike with its venomous teeth. It hit so hard and so fast that Abe found himself balling his hands into fists, teeth starting to grit so hard that one could feel them getting duller and duller each time he did it. 

Abe wanted to go after her, yell in her face, do everything that Zeus was telling him to do, but he knew he shouldn't. That would prove Cecily right. That would make her words have some truth to them. He wouldn’t act out of anger. He had to calm down, so he literally took a seat on the couch behind him, but that didn’t mean that the anger had gone down. He just needed to let time pass, but fuck if it wasn’t hard because he felt as if he was one more nudge before going nuclear.

“[color=mediumpurple]Fuck, fuck, fucking [b]FUCK![/b][/color]” Abe said through his gritting teeth, rage staying at a steady hazardous high.

Clueless as one could be during the fighting match that had occurred just outside the bathroom door, Dustyn emerged out with her hair wrapped up in one of the towels she found on the rack inside the bathroom. It may or may not have been decorative, but this was of no concern.

[color=b83d55][i]”You guys have some of the nicest pipes this side of campus.”[/i][/color] she chirped, obvlious to her surroundings and the angry face that was spread across Abe’s handsome mug. [color=b83d55][i]”I hope you guys didn’t make out while I was gone, or that would be super rude of you.”[/i][/color] she continued, unwrapping the towel from her hair and letting it fall on to the floor next to her into a heap. 

Glancing up she looked between Tess and Abe and realized that something was indeed wrong. She parted her lips to speak, but decided it was best to keep quiet about this one, or at least wait until she could ask Tess in private. [color=b83d55][i]”So, yeah. The assembly is later today, right?”[/i][/color] Dusty asked, her thumb going directly to her lips as she gnawed at what was left of her thumb nail.

Tess’ rage was subsiding now that Cecily had left the room, but her heart was still racing. Luckily, her calmer side was regaining some semblance of control, and she almost laughed as Dusty came out of the bathroom, oblivious to the fight that had just occurred.

She glanced at Abe then back to Dusty. She figured that he needed some space, and she needed to rant about that bitch who’d totally ruined what would’ve been a very nice make out session. [color=palegreen][b]”Dusty, I think we should probably go help you unpack. I know you probably have a ton of stuff,”[/b][/color] she said, shooting her friend a look that said, [i]Agree with me[/i] before grabbing her hand and dragging her towards the door.

Before she exited, she turned to look at her roommate, and waved. [color=palegreen][b]”I guess I’ll see you later,”[/b][/color] she said, biting her lip nervously, before leaving, taking Dusty with her and shutting the door. She let out a sigh of relief and turned to her friend. [color=palegreen][b]”You will not believe what just happened. We’re sitting there, on the couch, literally about to make out, when his fucking [i]sister[/i] comes in and calls me a hoe!”[/b][/color] Tess exclaimed, waving her arms about and walking towards the elevator. [color=palegreen][b]”And then, I yell at her, and he yells at her, and then she yells at him, and I’m standing there trying not to get electrocuted and also feeling very jipped because we were literally just about to kiss, and then she left and he was super pissed, and I’m angry,”[/b][/color] she said, letting out a groan as she called the elevator up.[/indent]
