Opposites attract

(An Octachel/Rachtavian fanfiction)

Rachel's POV:

The war with Gaea was over, and somehow all of the seven survived. Nico, Reyna and Coach Hedge managed to bring the Athena Parthenons to the camp and made peace with the Romans.

Everything would've been fine, but the Roman Camp was destroyed and all the Romans came to stay at the camp until it was reconstructed. Six months for Gods' sake!

I was somehow fine with it until I found out that a certain little brat will stay in my cave. Octavian.


"But Chiron…"

"I'm sorry Rachel. He's their augur. He doesn't have any option."

"Fine." I muttered. "But if he somehow gets injured by a blue plastic hairbush, it's not my fault."

"Oh Rachel, I don't think he is that bad."

"You have no idea…"

"Rachel, stop acting like a 5-years old. Besides, the Romans will arrive any minute now, so try to be nice to them."

"Okay…" I sighed. Those months will be a pure torture.

(At dinner)

After Chiron introduced us the Romans, they all sat at their tables.

I sat at the Apollo table, being the Oracle and all, when Octavian sat down next to me. He was as grumpy as usual, and he seemed to hate the idea of leaving his camp. He didn't notice me. As much as I despised him, I couldn't help but feel a bit sorry for him. It must have been hard to leave his home.

He muttered a short "Hello" before he just sat down there and started to eat his food.


Octavian's POV:

Our camp had been destroyed, and now we have to stay here for six months! Those Greeks are horrible. I don't trust them. And especially because of what they did to me…

Reyna says that I'm complaining too much. Well I can't help myself! And their camp can't compare to ours. It's just so, so… Well you got it.

I sat down at my table after offering some food to the Gods, they say it's kind of a tradition. I muttered a "Hello" without even looking at the campers. I just wanted this nightmare to end.

"Why hello to you too." I heard from a girl next to me. Then I noticed her. That redhead who claims that she is the Oracle of Delphi. I think it's fake. It just can't be real. Plus she is a mortal! A mortal for Jupiter's sake! And I heard that I have to stay in her cave. The things just get worse.

"What do you want Oracle?"I said.

"Well, I just greeted you back, I don't see a problem in that. Besides we will have to share my cave, wich I think is a stupid idea, so I think maybe we better get along." She said just for me to hear. "I hope you have brang your stuff because I will not give you one of my shirts."

"Do you think I am that idiot?"

She smiled. I can't help but realize how beautiful she was when she smiled. Snap out of it! I thought.

"Well, I don't think you are an idiot. I know you are an idiot."

"Ooh, BUURN!" I heard some boy saying.

"Shut up Repair Boy!" I heard a girl say. I turned my face to them. I realized they were those Greeks from The Seven. That Vennus-err Aphrodite girl and that elphish … Hephy… Hepha… Hephaestus boy.

"Yes ma'am!" I heard him saying.

I hope this day will end soon.

A/N: So how was it? It's my first fanfiction about those two and I ship them really hard. I'm planning on posting the next chapter these days. Blue cookies for everyone! (::)(::)(::)(::)(::)
