Light and Wind ★彡
{Day 1}
Artemis groaned softly as he stirred, his now amber eyes flickering open slowly before he covered them with his hands, groaning more as bright sunlight got into his eyes.
Where was he? He was laying on such an uncomfortable surface, what was it?
"The heck.." He muttered, his eyes slowly flickering open again as he sat up, allowing his eyes to adjust to the bright lights of the sun.
He was in a wooden gazebo, a large one surrounded by flowers and the sweet smell of honey and dew.
It seemed so familiar, but at the sand time, so foreign. Had he been here before? He doubted it.
He blinked, looking around more as he shakily got to his feet, still dressed in his form-fitting kimono that Yui, a close friend of his, had lent to him (unfortunately, it was a bit large at the sleeves and in the back for his taste, but Yui had insisted.) His hair had been let down mostly, but with two large hair clips shaped like the heads of silver stags, looking like they were made of pure moonlight, these held his hair up until the red strands flowed out from the base of the stags' chin, falling so it brushed against his smooth, heart shaped face.
"A-ah! Hello!" Artemis jumped, swirling around to see that a person, a man, had fallen into a patch of Hydrangas and was currently looking up at Artemis as if he was the universe, he also had amber eyes, the trait of a god, Artemis noted.
"A-are you okay?" Artemis asked, gracefully padding down the stone steps of the gazebo to be in front of the man who quickly scrambled to his feet, blushing profoundly at his stumble.
"Y-yes! I'm Balder! I'm the Norse god of light and I like cute things!" He introduced, swiftly holding out his hand.
Artemis blinked, looking from the blushing blonde to his hand before shyly taking it in his own, letting them gently shake hands.
"I-it's a pleasure to meet you, Balder! My name is Artemis." He said, smiling softly to Balder who cocked his head to the side.
"I've never heard of that kind of god before, are you Norse?" He asked, narrowing his eyes in confusion.
Artemis paused. "N-no, I was named after a Greek Goddess, but I'm Scottish!" He said, standing up a bit more straighter, smiling kindly to Balder who practically melted at the sight of his smile, totally ignoring the fact that he was Greek, that conversation could wait another day.
Or millennia.
"He's so... Beautiful..." Thought Balder, a dopey smile coming onto his face as he took Artemis's hand in a more firm grip.
"Would you like to come explore this place with me?" He asked, praying that his voice wouldn't waver, and to his luck, it didn't.
Artemis paused, biting his lip slightly before he nodded, his grip on Balder's hand squeezing a bit more as he decided.
"Id love to!" He said, grinning at Balder who grinned back, the two of them taking off at a quick pace into the school, neither of them noting the red haired god who had appeared, jealousy on his features as he glared at them.
"He's mine, Balder!"
