Ever's PoV:
Being the daughter of the sea god isn't as easy as it sounds. In fact, it is very painful. See, I'm not a normal half-blood. My parents are Rachel Moore and Poseidon. But I was born in such a way that I had to be in water. Not like a mermaid or a naiad, but like a human who needed water instead of air to breathe. Eleven years later, but dad finally used Hecate to get me to breathe normally, like a normal half-blood. He took me personally to camp Half-Blood. It was like I was royalty, the way people stared at me. (Or maybe they were staring at Poseidon…)
That was where I met Nico di Angilo. He wasn't really paying me or my dad much attention, but I saw him. He was cute in a sort of angst-y way. I wanted him for a friend, for sure. He's intriguing and that's what I first look for in a friend. (Second, honesty, loyalty, funny… the list goes on and on…)
It was that on that moment that I realized what Daddy was talking about: outside of the water, I had ADHD, but inside, not so much. I couldn't keep my mind on one subject!
"Hello," I said, walking over to him. He seemed to not notice me coming over, so he was a little scared to see me. "Hello… you new here?"
"Yes, I am. My dad is Poseidon. Who's child are you?"
"Hades. Cabin thirteen. Your cabin three do you want me to take you there?"
I smiled, he was nice. "No thanks; I'll find it."
"Okay. No offence, I like talking to you and all but… why are you talking to me? It'll be bad for your rep. You're new, so you should worry about your rep."
"I'll think about that later. But if you don't wanna talk, I'll see you later."
Nico smiled, "So there will be a later?"
Is he flirting with me? Is this cute boy really flirting with me?
"Sure—"
"Ever?" Daddy called from behind me. "Leave, Mr. di Angilo."
I sighed a little and rolled my eyes at Nico. He smirked like he understood.
Well, see you later…?"
"Nico."
I smiled, "Later, Nico. I hope really soon."
