"Do I know you from somewhere" She asked
"Is there somewhere private we can go. I have big news for you and I suggest we be in private to discuss it"
"Umm" She looked at Callie
"I'm coming too" Callie demanded
"That is fine" He nodded
They went to a closet to talk
"I wasn't expecting this" He looked around
"Just talk" Callie snapped her fingers
"I am Benjamin. I am a god and you Miranda are my chosen one. When young gods are born some are paired with other gods. Some like me get assigned a mortal that will be given divine powers to be our spouses"
"And I'm the president of lala land" Callie scoffed
"I am telling the truth" Ben frowned
"So wait you're a god and what you came here to whisk me away so I can marry you or something"
"Well you have an option. Stay here and be mortal or come with me"
"This is ridiculous" Callie rolled her eyes "why are we even giving this man the time of day"
Ben rubbed his face and lifted Callie up using his powers.
"Because what I am saying is true"
"Wait put her down" Miranda hit him
"This is sort of fun" Callie admitted flipping in the air
"I am demonstrating only a fraction of my power" He lowered her "You have them too"
"I don't know who or what you are but I am not anything like you" She shook her head
Ben sighed and randomly kissed her. It was just a quick peck on her lips. But Miranda's breath was taken away as a surge of electricity went through her body.
"What the hell" She pushed him away and sent him flying into the air but he stopped himself from hitting anything.
"What was that" Callie looked at her
"Your powers" Ben floated back down "I told you"
"No this is a dream I am dreaming" She laughed
"When you were a child. An elder god came down and gave you the kiss of divinity on your forehead. I just activated it" Ben smiled
"That didn't happen" She shook her head
This was harder than Ben thought. He closed his eyes and looked through Miranda's memories.
"What's he doing" Callie asked
"I'm not sure" Miranda replied " are we high"
"I'm not sure" Callie shook her head "this could be a very bad trip"
"Maybe we both were drugged" Miranda suggested
"Or something bad happened in the hospital and we suffered some head trauma"
"There" Ben smiled. He snapped his finger and suddenly they were no longer in the closet they were in Miranda's childhood bedroom.
"You seeing this" Callie whispered
"Omg" Miranda looked at her younger self sleeping in bed
"Watch" Ben pointed
"She is perfect" one of the elders smiled
"Look at her. She even sleeps divinely" Another one smiled
"I anoint you a chosen one" The elder kissed her on her forehead leaving a glowing kiss that slowly faded away
