"Why do you seem so special to me?" Percy asked, gazing at me questionably.
This question threw me off guard. One moment we were discussing weapons, the next I was frozen in shock.
It has been a week since we have arrived at the Roman camp. On day one, I was reunited with an amnesic Percy, and found out a Demeter - sorry, Ceres- girl, has a crush on him. Obvious to everyone but him, thank the gods.
On day two, I found out he remembers my name (gee, isn't that just splendid!) and that I am deathly afraid of spiders. I guess that trait doesn't affect my roman counterparts. It was on day three that I noticed him staring at me. And much to my displeasure, the cereal girl staring at him.
And on day four, I dueled and beat the second best sword fighter, Bobby, with a dagger. Unfortunately, I lost to Renya in archery. She is a daughter of Apollo, and ex-girlfriend of Jason- as of three weeks before he went missing. Piper was ecstatic until she found out Renya was planning on winning Jason over again.
On day five, I dueled Percy, revealing his Achilles spot to him, though how he forgot that, the world may never know.
Finally, on day six Hazel and Dakota -dating six months after the titan war- helped the stowaway Stolls with a prank. Ending in the biggest all out free for all against demigods ever witnessed. Roman against Greek, Greek against Greek, Roman against Roman. It was practically a free for all, weapons and powers were discluded, leaving only hands and feet to take out anyone in a close range.
But now it was day seven. Five of the seven of the prophecy were already revealed. Piper, Leo, Renya, Jason, and Percy were the five. I had been debating whether I would be chosen or not, when Percy asked if I would like to take a walk with him through camp. To avoid driving myself insane with the unknown, I agreed.
And there I was, trying catch my thoughts after he decided to be blunt and straight forward. Or I really wasn't paying attention, and he was leading up to it. Thinking it over, I realized it was the latter. My first thought was "Because I am your girlfriend, you idiot".
A heartbeat after I thought it, Percy stood gaping at me, as well with the people in close distance. There was one explanation for this, and I didn't even want to think about it. But I had to. Because what I thought was only mentioned in my head, I said out loud.
