Don't embarrass yourself

     Ariellas pov 

     It felt like my word was crashing as Goddesses were chuckling. I could only keep my head buried deep in my book. If I could I would submerge into it

    "Ariella. Ariella." Blake snapped at me as he shook me. Why was he yelling like something was wrong? I didn't want to but I peaked at him with one eye.

    He was looking at me with a raised eyebrow and I was more confused than ever. "Did you plan on sleeping throughout the whole day?" He asked with a smirk. Sleep?

     "I mean I'm all for sleeping but I definitely don't think you want to get punished on your first day." The laugh he gave me had me slowly sitting up. 

    I looked down at the dry book confused. I couldn't stop my hand from rubbing at my very dry face and eyes. I was sleep but I didn't feel like I was sleep. I looked over at Blake who was now standing..

   A sweep of my eyes over the room had me sighing with relief. It was a dream. Everyone was gone. How I sleep without realizing it was beyond me but I didn't care. I didn't embarrass myself. I had to make sure I didn't embarrass myself like that dream. 

   I stood up alittle excitedly. The smile that came on my lips had me showing all my teeth. I couldn't help it. I actually had a dream that I cried in class. How mortifying.

    "You seem pretty happy." Blakes smirk had me smiling even more. He wasn't mad and that meant something. 

     "Yes. I just had a bad dream and am happy it wasn't real." I absentmindedly explained. Definitely not the explanation that I should've gave but it was fine. 

    "What did you walk into class naked or something?" He joked. That had me pausing. I looked at his smile and couldn't help the small laugh that came out. It took alot not to laugh loudly. 

     "Do you not like your laugh or something?" His silky voice purred as he grabbed me and teleported to our next class. 

     I ignored his seductive voice and walked to the free seat that was in the back. I needed to get some distance between us because I definitely didn't need to actually cry in front of anyone. Plus the way he was talking was making things weird. 

     He looked good with his jet black hair and piercing green eyes but for some reason I felt nothing. I had read books about relationships and all, just to be prepared and I definitely knew that I felt nothing for him. 

    "Watsup?" A God next to me rasped. I looked over to the God with yellow hair looking at me with his piercing red eyes. Up close to him gave me a better look at all his features.

    His yellow hair had white highlights that could only be seen if you were looking close enough and his red eyes sparkled like rubies whenever the light hit them. His white teeth were perfect but that was normal for Gods that weren't at the bottom.

     "Do you like what you see?" I couldn't even stop the blush that hit my cheeks. His voice definitely went with his looks and all I could do was stare at his memorizing eyes. He was a God worth looking at. 

     Someone clearing their throat had me looking forward in my seat. Guess admiring the God next to me was cut shirt. The God that was in charge of this class was looking at me like he was trying to figure me out. 

     He walked towards the white board never dropping his gaze. "I see that we have a new student and I would say that it was nice to have you in my class but it seems like you are already hanging out with the wrong crowd." The buff God said not dropping his gaze from me for what felt like forever. 

    The animosity that was radiation off of him had me going wide eyed. I could pray that this was another dream but I knew that was wishful thinking. I looked over at the God I was talking to, to see his reaction. 

    He must have felt my stare because the way he slowly looked at me was anything but accidentally. He oozed confidence and seduction. Maybe he was a bad boy but I definitely didn't mind hanging out with him. 

     The smile and wink he gave me had me smiling huge this time. His personality was perfect and I couldn't help but think that the teacher was being biased. 

     "Ms. Ariella the front of the class is this way. I know you were homeschooled so I'll give you a free pass this once. Next time I won't be so lenient." The buff Gods rough voice bit at me.

     My cheeks heated up to what felt like a bright red. Definitely not from anything that was not embarrassment. All attention was on me. Multiple eyes that shined with curiosity. This teacher had it out for me the moment I walked into this room. 

    "Thank you. Now let's get started. I know most of you know me as one of the most ruthless Gods in all realms but today I am not the God of war. Today I am just Aries." He stated as he wrote his name in neat handwriting that you would've never guessed was his. His handwriting was probably the only girly thing he was known for. 

     Giggles filled the room telling me that I was not the only one who thought that. I smiled alittle too because it was funny that the God of war wrote like a girl. I wonder if he did it on purpose or if it was something he had no control over. 

      A bang had all Goddesses and Gods going silent instantly. I guess he didn't like the laughs. Maybe he was sensitive with his girly handwriting. A few Snickers broke though causing me to try to cough to hide my laugh. 

     "I will not take the disrespect. I may be your teacher but I promise you I didn't help take over all forbidden realms with my girly handwriting." His hostile words had everyone being quite and the fact that he was looking at me like he wanted to kill me had me pausing. 

    Could he read my mind? All Gods did have powers. My father never mentioned mind reading but that didn't mean that it wasn't a thing.
