Persephone entered a cafe nearby, she was desperate for her morning coffee.

Dion sighed and leaned back against the leather sofa in a cozy cafe. He had somehow coerced one of the waitresses to sit with him and feed him grapes and a spiked drink. He smiled at the newcomer to the cafe.

Hermes glanced over at the girl who had just walked into the cafe. She was pretty, but he continued to sit and look at his coffee. Usually Athena was here, reading or doing something innovative and he would watch her make cute faces as she thought. Of course he wouldn't never call her cute to her face. . . she honestly scared him.

"One espresso please." Persephone said, tired.

(HI IM BACK)
In the form of a black cat, Bastet strolled into the cafe down from her apartment.
Yum, something smells good
She hopped up on one of the chairs near the window and began to people watch.

Athena walked into the cafe, with her face in a book, and left her stuff at a table while she walked over to the counter and looked up while smiling, "The usual please," She quickly paid the drink, took her drink and walked back to her table. She was still absorbed in her book and sat her table. Now she was fully absorbed in her book.

Hermes glanced over at Athena as she walked in, her head looking down at the book in her hand. He grabbed his cup and walked over to her table, plopping down in front of her. "Hey Wise Girl." Hermes finally said, flashing a mischievous grin.

She didn't look up from her book because she already knew who it was, and took a sip of her drink, "Hey Wings."

Dion quickly pulled aside another waitress as she hurried by with an expresso, "All drinks on me today." He winked and left her to go about her business.

She didn't look up from her book because she already knew who it was, and took a sip of her drink, "Hey Wings."

Hermes sighed and leaned forward, looking at her book. "What are you reading today?"

"Second book of the Maze Runner Trilogy, Scorch Trails," She said while showing him the cover of the book, and takes another sip of her drink.

"Oh, that's a good one." Hermes smiled, looking at the cover and tracing the handle on the mug he was drinking from. "Wait 'till you get to Death Cure. You're in for a real surprise."

"Hey, don't spoil it!" She said while smiling still reading the book.

"Hm, when you're done with the books, you're going to have to watch the movies." Hermes started, taking a sip from his drink as he watched her read. "I have tickets to the first one."

"Ah young love. Go send them some grapes and chocolate, will you dear?" He sent the other waitress over, smiling devilishly.

She looked from her book and at Hermes,"Can I have one?"

"Of course. That's why I got them, Wise Girl." Hermes said, winking at her. "We could, uh, go together?" He added on, his hand rubbing the back of his neck nervously, a soft blush spreading across his cheeks.

"Sure!" She said while smiling. She didn't really pay attention to the fact that it was just her and Hermes.

"Awesome!" He exclaimed, his boyish grin returning. "Pick you up around four o'clock tomorrow?"

"Sure!" She went back to reading her book and took another sip of her drink.

Hermes watched her read for a few more moments and then reached into his bag and grabbed a leather bound notebook that he had received from Apollo yesterday. He opened it and began to sketch Athena out.

She kept on reading while taking a sip of her drink every so often, she didn't notice the fact that Hermes was still there since she was absorbed in her book.
