It was a sunny morning a camp Half-Blood and Kate Gardner was fuming mad. She was stomping over to Hermes cabin with a box of pink marshmallow peeps. In other words a perfectly normal day.

"TRAVIS!" she yelled banging on the Hermes cabin door.

"Yes Katie-Kat" Travis opened the door with a grin on his face.

"Don't call me Katie-Kat" she growled.

"I trust you got our present then?" Connor Stoll had the nerve to smile at her.

"I'll never understand you two!" she exclaimed "I mean honestly in what respect is it ok to glue boxes and boxes of the worst candy ever to our bathroom walls?"

"Travis mentioned you hate peeps" Connor said with an evil grin.

"We couldn't resist" Travis explained "we're practicing for Easter"

Katie was so annoyed she slammed the door in their faces and stormed off. Travis Stoll had the nerve to decorate her cabin with peeps. She hated peeps! Why did he have to be so infuriating? And that grin! That stupid grin that put knots in her stomach every time she saw it. Why Travis?! Any other boy would have been fine but why did she have to like Travis Stoll? He was constantly pranking her cabin and he was so annoying. Why did she have to like him? Katie was still seething mad when she got back to her cabin. She sat down on her bed and started to cry. Luckily the only person in the cabin was her sister Miranda. Miranda came over and sat next to Katie to comfort her. Miranda was the only person she had told about liking Travis.

"Why can't he just leave me alone?" Kati sobbed "It's bad enough he'll never like me back, why does he have to constantly humiliate me? He's just rubbing salt in he wound."

"Well at least it gives you more opportunities to see him" Miranda said trying to be helpful and failing.

Katie gave her a did-you-seriously-just-say-that look and replied "Oh yeah more time for me to fall even more hopelessly in love with him while he still thinks the only reason I exist is for pranking."

"I could talk to Connor" Miranda said. Connor and Miranda were close friends and even though she would never admit it, Katie knew that Miranda kind of liked Connor.

Katie shook her head, "No don't do that I don't want Connor to know I like his brother." she sighed "There's nothing to be done. I'll just have to grin and bare it."

"That's my girl" Miranda said punching her lightly on the shoulder. "Now let's go or we'll miss breakfast."

Hope you liked it so far! R&R!
