Although Carys had already collected what she needed to, she was hesitant to walk back out. The infatuation was getting bigger, and it was almost suffocating. Still, she reluctantly walked back, but she was in visible mild discomfort.
Hidden In Plain Sight // One-On-One // GxG // CLOSED
“You ok?” She asked tilting her head as she looked at Carys reappear. She looked uncomfortable and almost hurt to Cat. She looked around to see if the guy had came back.
"Yeah, I'm fine. Why wouldn't I be?" She began to ring the flowers up, ignoring the woman's ever increasing suffocating infatuation. She forced a smile. "So those come to around….$50."
“You look uncomfortable,” she admits fishing out her money. Trying not to think about the amount.
"Even if I am, it's no business to you. I don't know you, nor do I feel the need to know you." She waited for the woman to pay.
She handed her money biting her lip. “Good too know,” she mumbled picking up the bundle.
"Thanks for shopping at Carys' Crown Flowers, come again." With that, Carys went out the back of the shop, exiting via the back door. This seemed to be the correct distance for her to escape the infatuation.
Cat walked out. Face slightly red from embarrassment and anger. Getting into her car but not being able to make herself drive away. She wanted to know why Carys was suddenly acting weird but she also knew when she wasn’t wanted.
After about five minutes, Carys walked back into the shop and was glad to find that the woman had left. She did a few things and then discovered that the woman had left her purse behind. Dammit! She thought to herself.
Cat hadn’t even realized she’d left her bag. She walked back inside deciding that she needed to know what was up.
"Hey, you left your purse behind," Carys said with the fakest smile on her face. "I'm gonna close up now so I would appreciate if you could please exit the shop."
Cat picked up her purse. “Sorry just umm did I do something?” She asked. She really wanted to know to make sure she hadn’t slipped up some how. Maybe Cathys recognized her. She still steal from a lot of shops when she was younger but she doesn’t remember a flower shop.
"No, I have somewhere to be. So I am asking you politely if you could leave so that I can close and go there."
She nodded. "Fine," She mumbled again. Turning around and leaving. Her hand gripped her purse.
Carys closed the door behind her, locking it. It wasn't false, what she'd told the woman. She did have somewhere to be. Her home. Olympus. She walked out the back of the store, slowly changing into Amore.
Cat sat in the car for a moment before getting out once again. She decided to investigate so she can figure out what's really bothering Carys. She walked to the back of the back alley and saw Carys..but she wasn't Carys. "A-Amore?" She asked eyes wide.
(hey it'd be really helpful if cat could like go back and to the back alley and see carys become amore before she flies off (do you mind changing your reply to that? it would move the story along quicker))
(Good idea I changed it)
Carys didn't hear anything. Or rather, Amore didn't hear anything. She stretched her wings while she stretched her body, blue eyes glistening. She dusted off her clothes, then started to walk to a safer place.
Cat was frozen in place watching the goddess walk away. Her mind traveling a million miles a minute unsure if she should say something.
Amore waved her hand and a portal appeared in front of her. She desperately wanted to fly, but she would do that in Olympus. She couldn't risk it here on Earth. The portal was a simple white, but it had pink undertones.
Cat snapped out of her shock. Sneaking behind her and debating on following through the portal. It wasn't hard to believe that Carrys was Amore she was well beautiful. It would explain how she knew about Cat's date.
Amore walked through the portal, wings stretched behind her. As soon as the tips of her wings exited from view, the portal began to close.
Cat quickly made up her mind running through the portal just before it closed. She looked around her as soon as she entered.
Amore breathed in the Olympus air, stretching her wings again. She took off, heading towards her small garden in her home.
Cat watched her go. She tried to follow her on foot but quickly lost her. She looked around. Eyes wide and mouth slightly open. Was this Olympus?
"Amore!" Amore was tackles as she landed in her garden, her wings sprawling everywhere. She saw that it was her two sisters.
"Cyrene! Akilah! Oh, how I've missed you!"
(cyrene=artemis, akilah=athena
If I give the name of a god, you might be able to figure out who it is given what the name means, but sometimes not)
(alright thanks I love Greek mythology so hopefully I’ll catch on quick)
Cat wondered around trying not to be seen or noticed by anyone. She was still in show but she attempted to hide it. Wanting to appear like she belonged.
A god spotted Cat. "Who are you!" He yelled, running over. While unbeknownst to Cat - since most of the Gods looked the same in stone and in pictures - this was Aloysius, God of War and one of Amore's brothers. "State your business, human! How did you get to Olympus?!"
Cat’s eyes widened even more when she saw the god. Her first instinct was to lie but she didn’t think that would go over well with a god. “I um saw Amore who was A florist named Cathys but I guess she turned into Amore go through a portal and I followed because well I’m not really sure!” She admits now realizing how stupid it was to even follow the goddess.
