Hey diary,

I think Conner is coming to… Yes! Finally he is. So, I can ask him. It's been like a day already. Gods. So, I've planned this all out, I even wore a miniskirt and v-cut flowy top that even though I am uncomfortable Conner is sure to love. Conner's eyes are moving. Here's my shot. "Hey." I say. "Hey." He says groggily. "How long have I been out?" Awww… He's getting his glow back. I say "about a month." But Conner can tell I'm lying, so I say "a day." He must have sensed the truth. Well, enough chit chat it's time for him to put on the big boy pants and tell me he secretly loved me all these years.

"Well, what was is it that you didn't?" I asked overly excited. He looks confused, "Huh?" He says. I say "I told you something 2 days ago, what is it that you didn't?" He still looks confused, then a light goes on, or something clicks. "What is it?" I say anxiously already knowing. "I didn't like you like that." He says. I planned for this is it happened; he's playing hard to get. Easy I stand up so he can see my ensemble (Silena taught me that one.) His eyes practically popped out of his head. Ahh… Now all I have to do is walk away, no saunter away and go talk to someone else.

I find the perfect candidate, his brother Travis. I talk to him, flirt with him, or rather make it look like I'm flirting with him, and pretended to fall, and had him catch me. At least that's what it looked like. I was really buying cheetos and hugging him. He has a different smell than Conner, woodsier like he showered with pine needles or if he had kissed a dryad. I'm not surprised if he did, he gets a lot of stuff from them and there are only a handful of things I can think of that they'd want in return. At least it's not naiads, terrible flirts. Always hitting on Percy. As if, even though he claims they're just friends, he's totally in love with Annabeth. Anyway, I sneak a peek at Conner, totally jealous my plan is sooo working.
