This randomly popped in to my head and I just had to write it. Because I really do believe Silena was a good person that she was just over powered by evil but she won in the end.

Disclaimer… I don't own Percy Jackson (obviously)

Surrounded by early morning fog beside the lake, rider spurred the horse into a gallop. There at the far corner of camp, Silena was finally alone, with her thoughts. Not the best place for her to be. The bracelet Luke gave her suddenly went icy cold, sending goose bumps up her arm.

Being a head counselor of Aphrodite cabin and the only riding instructor left her little other time to think, that she was thankful for. Thinking of what she was doing made it even harder.

The hoof beats thundered dirt path that lead to the cabins. As the stable came in view, she sat back in her saddle and eased the mare back down to a walk.

"You're really good with horses, would you mind teaching me some time?" A deep voice called out from behind her.

At the sound of his voice, her stomach did flip flops. A smile slipped out across her lips as she dismounted. He came to see me at seven thirty in the morning Silena wanted to sing.

'You don't deserve such a good friend if he knew what you were, he wouldn't be here right' a bitter voice from within sneered her.

"I'd love to Charlie, would you like to start now? I really could use some help, putting away tack." She replied praying to her mother that he would say yes, so she would have someone so her thoughts wouldn't take over.

This was just the beginning of an everyday, occurrence. At first he would wait until the end of her ride, and help her untack, and help carry water buckets. Secretly both demigods looked forward to their time shared together each morning. When Silena was with Beckendorf, the bracelet seemed a galaxy away, and the bitter voice never spoke to her.

Soon if anyone needed Beckendorf, and he wasn't teaching a wielding class, he would be with the head counselor of Aphrodite. They spent every free moment together. They became the center of camp gossip; everyone was pushing them to be official. Then one evening after camp fire, when he was walking Silena back to her cabin, they took a detour around the lake. The moon was full, with the stars shining brightly. He slowly he slipped his arm around her. Then looking into each other's eyes; their lips met. That kiss awakened something in her, something good.

In that moment Silena knew she was in love. That same moment she knew she had to stop, for Charlie; he was the best things that ever happened to her, she had to keep him safe.

I don't know if I will write more please review, any commits would help me improve my writing. XXXX
