First Kiss

As the night wore on, more and more monsters came and more demigods got wounded. Here and there, demigods are fighting different kinds of monster: Laistrygonian giants, empousai, furies and many more. Percy was leading their side and he was busy fighting off dozens of monsters all at the same time.

Each cabin was ordered to guard a certain place and Travis knew he should be doing exactly that but he just couldn't bring himself to concentrate on the monsters surrounding him. His siblings were fighting other monsters and he is very much worried about them but he was more worried on someone else.

Someone who was ordered to guard somewhere far from his location. He stabbed the monster in front of him and ran to his brother's side.

"Hey Connor, guard them all for a while, will you."

"Where are you going?"

"Somewhere. I gotta go man," he ran off.

He ran as fast as he could, looking around frantically for any signs of her. Whenever he catches a glimpse of a mop of brown hair, his breath catches. But he sighs in disappointment when he realizes it wasn't her. He kept running and running until he bumped into a familiar petite figure with brown hair just like hers.

"Miranda! Where's Katie?"

"Travis? What are you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be down the street, guarding?" Miranda asked.

"I know I know. But I'm looking for your sister. Where is she? Is she alright?" Travis asked desperately. The concern was rising every minute.

" She's fine Travis. She's inside the building. Don't worry."

Travis sighed in relief and ran as fast as he could to the building. Inside were wounded demigods who were resting and eating cubes of ambrosia. He looked around for her and he felt all the worry inside him disappear.

There she was, sitting at one of the beds with a bandage on her arm.

"Katie!" Travis rushed to her and hugged her tightly.

"Ow" Katie groaned, pushing him away.

"What are you doing here Stoll?" Katie asked, glaring at him. But he just smiled back.

"What happened to your arm?"

"It's none of your business."

"Katie.. "

"Go back out there," Katie ignored him as she checked her arm.

"Look, I know I've been such a jerk to you and I'm sorry."

"Oh you are a jerk alright."

"I'm sorry."

Katie sighed.

"I'm sorry too. A war is happening and here I am still mad at you because of some stupid prank when I should just forget about it and be nice to you."

"What really happened to your arm?"

"I got stabbed by some daughter of Ares."

"You have to be careful, Gardner."

"I was being careful."

"But not careful enough."

Travis scolded her which felt odd since normally she would be the one scolding him for his pranks.

"Travis!"

They looked at the door and saw Connor panting so hard, probably from running too fast. Travis looked back at Katie then he turned to leave.

Katie grabbed his arm. "Be careful Stoll."

Travis smirked but nodded nonetheless. He walked towards Connor but stopped in his tracks. And in one swift motion, he ran back to Katie and grabbed her face and kissed her. Katie sat there frozen and stunned but a second after, she wrapped her free arm around his neck and kissed him back.

When they pulled away, he whispered. "Be careful Gardner."

And he was gone.

The End
