OLD ACCOUNT

Sitting above the clouds

Beyond the mortal eyes

Sat Olympus. The realm of the gods. You know them, Zeus and his many many lovers, Hera’s temper, Hades and his relationship with Persephone, Athena, Hermes, Hestia, Demeter.

But our story is about Hephaestus, Aphrodite and Ares. You know their story. The rushed marriage of Aphrodite to Hephaestus so no male gods would fight over her, Aphrodite wandering eye towards Ares, the cheating, Hephaestus catching them in his net. You know it. But surely, their marriage was … annulled. Right?

Aphrodite sat in her temple of love and sex, being tended to by her servants when Hermes comes in “Oh! Aphrodite! Zeus calls on you to come to the grand temple.”

Aphrodite huffs in annoyance but raises from her seat, the gorgeous goddess makes her way to the temple, wondering why she needs to meet with Zeus on this day

Aphrodite approaches the main hall of the temple, only to see Hephaestus, the broken man who she had been married to before, sitting in a bench as his legs were so weak, she scoffs in annoyance “goodness.. why are you here? Shouldn’t you be wasting your time in your forge?”

Hephaestus rolls his eyes, his under eyes dark from constantly working all the time “Zeus has asked me to be here too.” He stood on his weaken legs

The pair walked begrudgingly to the main room, Zeus stood there, with a sheepish expression on his face.. Next to him was Hera, the queen of the gods, goddess of marriage itself and Hephaestus’s mother, she gives Zeus a look

Zeus coughs nervously “Aphrodite. Hephaestus. I have done troubling news.. as you know, I had .. annulled your marriage due to um.. conflict of interest..”

Hera corrects Zeus “Aphrodite cheated on Hephaestus.” Aphrodite rolls her eyes at Hera’s comment

Zeus nods, agreeing with Hera’s correction “… but I have been made aware.. very recently.. that I do not have the power to do that.. Only Hera does.”

Hephaestus cautiously steps forward “what does that mean?” He spoke in his gruff tone

Hera spoke “it means.. you two have remained married for all this time.. and you been cheating on each other for all this time as well. … and as we are trying to stop all cheating all together..” she gives Zeus a look that made him scared before continuing “… you two will need to face punishment.”

Aphrodite scoffs “a punishment? Really? What? Do paper work for all the gods? Clean up some messes ?”

Zeus then spoke “a temporary banishment.”

Hephaestus and Aphrodite both froze

Hephaestus spoke first “Banishment?! To where?”

Zeus looks at Hephaestus “To earth. You will both be placed into the bodies of two mortals for a Year. No contact with gods, no powers and you two will be in the bodies of a married couple.”

Aphrodite then spoke, her voice pitching as she yells “But I’m the goddess of love and sex ! You can’t send me away!”

Hera then says “Eros will be taking over for you.”

Aphrodite became speechless, Hephaestus’s jaw was dropped

Zeus then says “I bid you too farewell.” He slams on the marble pedestal and the floor drops beneath Hephaestus and Aphrodite, both of them dropping to earth

Aphrodite screams as she falls “ITS ALL YOUR FAULT!” She yells at Hephaestus

Hephaestus yells back “MY FAULT?! HOW?!”

Aphrodite then screams “IF ONLY YOU LOVED ME!”

LA. 7:00am, a small studio apartment

A 5’6” brown hair, brown eyed woman jolts up awake, she gets out of the bed and looks in the mirror, shocked to see herself in the mirror, this was Aphrodite mortal body! It was plain, chubby, she had dark undereyes.. she screams in horror “No!” She wasn’t the beautiful goddess anymore..

Then she heard some groaning.. a man slowly got of the bed.. He was tall, 5’11? Maybe 6’0”? Dark hair, bright eyes, muscular, long legs, body hair and facial hair.. he looks at Aphrodite “… Aphrodite?”

Aphrodite gasps in shock, her eyes widen “Hephaestus?!”
