Leo's eyes immediately lit up. "Oh, thank God," he said, throwing both hands into the air. "Someone finally asked! I've been dying to know if we're all hallucinating."
Levi nodded solemnly. "I was beginning to think this was one of those situations where everyone knows except us."
Alaric folded his arms, looking between Athena and the three Alphas. "...Actually..." He glanced at Armand. "I'd also like an answer."
Even Felicia, who had stayed unusually quiet all evening, looked up expectantly.
Every pair of eyes in the booth settled on Athena. Even Rhydric's gaze lifted to her face, calm and unreadable, waiting to see what she'd say.
Athena looked around the booth, taking in every curious face fixed on her.
Leo looked like he was seconds away from exploding if she didn't answer. Levi had folded his arms, trying to look patient and failing miserably.
