Lia paced back and forth outside Jupiter's temple, waiting for Octavian who was doing a bloody ritual-which sadly includes slashing of teddy bears bellies-inside. Being the camp's augur, Octavian is influential and highly regarded by some, but many campers don't like him. (Well...you know what I mean) But inspite of that, Lia likes him, err, not just like
but LOVE. And she knows he feels the same way for her too. She's the only one who can tame him. They'd been on for like three months.
The rumbling of the sky finally ceased and the door creaked open. Octavian's heart went 'thump thump' as he saw her girlfriend waiting for him Lia, the daughter of Somnia (Morpheus in Greek). Her long brown hair looked golden under the bright sunlight and she looked even younger as it danced along with the wind. Her golden dagger and breastplate glittered gloriously, reflecting his thin pale face.
"Hey. What brought you here?" he said wearily.
Lia giggled. "Am I not allowed to visit my boyfriend?"
Octavian leaned and kissed her in the right cheek which made her blush. She examined Octavian and said, "You look horrible...I mean stressed out. You should go take a rest for a while. Come with me."She grabbed his hand and started dragging him out of the Temple Hill. They stopped on Via Principalis.
The guy sighed and touched the penguin stuffed toy hanging on his belt. "I always see bad omens. Something terrible's gonna happen. Those Greeks-"
"Shh." She turned to face him and placed her fingers on his lips. "Enough with that. Oh look at you. You badly need a break."
"Ugh. Amelia. No."
"Trust me."
"Not that Somnia thing again. Don't-"
Lia snapped her fingers. The last thing Octavian saw before he fell into a deep sleep, was his girlfriend's beautiful blue-gray caught him in her arms and carried him to his bunk. "Sleep well, my darling. See you on dreamland. I hope you are better when you wake up."She layed next to him and got asleep also.
