The Lakeside

"My problem? Everyone's my problem! They all have it better than me! I'm alone! I have no friends, siblings, nothing! I bet your one of the kids of the 12 gods. Let me guess. Athena? Aphrodite? No, no. It's Zeus, isn't it. Princess of the Gods are you?" Cooper shouted. "Well I'm not some whiney snob! I get Zelus. God of Jealousy, amoung other things. I was born into Jealousy and hatred! You get to prance around all carefree and happy while I sit around wishing that I had a different parent!"

Kora had heard what Cooper had said and walks over, "And you don't think knowing peoples secrets is any better? I'm sorry but this pity party had to be stopped. Do you have any idea what its like looking into people's heads? Its gross some of the things I had found out. But you know how we make it better? By just trying. You got your heart broken and now you are feeling sorry about yourself. Trust me I've been there. And I don't have any siblings at all with my godly mother Dike, or with my sleazy ex father. So pull yourself together and quit blaming others for your issues, when others have their own to deal with."

Cooper glared at the new girl. "No one asked you for your opinion. Keep your nose out of my business Miss High and Mighty. You are such a know-it-all. You think you have any idea what it's like to beme? You're wrong. You have no idea what it's like. Mind you own business." he snapped.

Kora frowns at him, "Actually, being the middle man and knowing other's business, is my business. Besides, this girl did nothing to you. And your right. I have no idea what its like to be you, that's why I'm me. And I would think long and hard before you go snapping at someone for something they had no control over." She then turns to Liv, "You want to go grab a smoothie with me?"

Cooper scoffed. He muttered something under his breath and pushed past her, making her to bump her with his shoulder as he did.

"Sure, I'm Olivia Night daughter of Ares" she said.

Kora smiles, "Oh Ares. Ive always been a bit of a fan of the Ares kids. I'm Kora Craven, Daughter of Dike."

"It's nice to meet you" Liv said.

Zoey walked with Macy and saw Cooper

Alice sat on a log looking at the water.

Daniel led Talia to the beach, a smile on his face.

Talia walked with him.

"We're here!" Daniel said excitedly, looking around.

A small smile appeared on Talia's face.

"don't you love it here?" He asked.

She nodded. "It's beautiful."

"I've always loved this area." Daniel said.

Talia nodded, trying to stay focused but her mind kept going back to John.

"Hey." Daniel sad quietly. "Are you okay?"

Talia looked at him and sighed. "John is acting weird."

"Like how?" Daniel asked.

"He's not his usually cheery self. He's changed. I'm worried about him." she said, tears coming to her eyes.

"He doesn't usually seem cheery around me." Daniel said.

"He's just over protective." Talia said.

"But does he not realize that I would never hurt you?" Daniel asked.
