Jace P.O.V.
Someone was shaking me I thought dimly still half asleep. I groaned and mumbled,
"Go away." The shaking stopped but before I could fully go back to sleep someone jumped on me knocking the breath right out of me. My eyes popped open and I stared at a giggling Callie. Michael stood in the door way trying hard not to laugh out loud.
"Jace time to get up. We are going to be late for camp!" Callie cried looking at him with sad puppy dog eyes. I sighed and said,
"We wont be late for camp but I will get up and get ready." Callie clapped and gave me a sloppy kiss on the cheek. Chuckling I watched her skip out of the room. I was tempted to lay back down but knowing if I did Callie would just keep coming back in to wake me up. Throwing back the covers I stumbled into the bathroom. I managed to not kill myself in the shower or when I shaved. Yawning I walked into the kitchen and grabbed a cup of coffee my dad put into my hands.
"Thanks." I mumbled to my father. I gulped down the hot liquid and I watched my father place a plate filled with pancakes and bacon infront of me. I smiled gratefully and dug in.
"Good morning everyone!" Michael said walking into the room. I growled and shot him a glare. How could anyone in there right mind be so cheerful in the morning was beyond me. Michael just grinned and stole a piece of bacon. I stabbed at him with my fork.
"Are you ready yet Jace?" Callie asked coming in and sitting beside me. I noticed she had already eaten and had her bags sitting by the door.
"Callie give your brother a chance to eat." My mom said coming into the room. She gave her a kiss on the cheek and grabbed a banana from the fruit bowl. "I've got to get to the office early. Jeff messed up with the papers and sent the wrong design to the Thompsons." Mom said rolling her eyes at the mistake her new employee made. Dad chuckled and exchanged a glance with us as my mom gathered her things. We all know that Jeff was in for a serious lecture.
"Now be careful and make sure to call me when you get to camp." After a stern look and a quick kiss on the cheek for each of us mom left. Callie was barely containing herself from bouncing in her seat. I took one last sip of coffee and placed my plates in the sink. Grabbing my bag and keys from my room I came out to see my brother and sister waiting for me by the door.
"Bye dad." Callie said. She gave him a big kiss and hug then ran out to the car. Michael laughed and followed after his own goodbye.
"Be careful." Dad said giving me a manly hug as he calls it.
"I will. Bye." I said heading out to the car. I throw my bag into the back.
"Can I drive?" Michael asked.
"No!" Callie and I shouted with mock horror. We laughed and Michael pouted before he gave up and joined in. He turned on his favorite radio station and we were off.
The ride to camp passed by quickly. I almost forgot Alex but thankfully Michael reminded me at the last minute. Alex didn't say a word and just gave me a look when he got in the car. When camp came into view and we passed the magical border we all breathed easier. You never know when a monster could attack. Michael and Callie headed towards Athena's cabin while Alex and me went to Poseidons. Alex sat on the bed while I unpacked. Trent and Nate soon joined us. We spent the rest of the afternoon just talking and messing around. When it was dinner time we made are way to the pavilion. Trent headed towards the Ares table, Nate headed to the Apollo table and Alex and me went to Poseidon table. We both piled food on our plate and after sending a quick offering to the gods started to eat. A blue cookie was halfway to my mouth when Chiron cleared his throat loudly. I stopped and turned. I choked on the bite of cookie I had had in my mouth. Alex sent me a questioning look but I didn't notice. I could only stare at the girl standing next to Chiron. It was the same girl I had seen yesterday...
Blair P.O.V.
As soon as Chiron cleared his throat everyone in the room turned and all eyes zeroed in on me. I wanted desperately to run away and crawl back into bed. I stood my ground and refused to cower although I did move alittle behind Chiron. He smiled at me and turned to the campers.
"We have a new camper this year." He started. Well that was obvious I thought. "I want you to make her feel welcome. We are not sure of her godly parent yet so she will be staying in the unknown cabin for now." Chiron was staying something else but I zoned out. Looking around the room my eyes widen in shock when they connected with a familiar pair of sea green eyes. Oh wow it was him! How is that possible? He looked to be thinking the same thoughts. Chiron cleared his throat and I blushed. Hurrying over to the table he pointed at I sat down quickly.
"Hi! My names Janie. Whats yours?" A girl around six asked me. I couldn't help but smile at her.
"Hi Janie. My names Blair." Janie smiled and then questions seemed to fly right out of her mouth. "Where do you live? How comes you haven't been to camp sooner? What's your favorite color?" I opened my mouth to say something when someone said,
"Janie stop that. You will scare the poor girl with all your questions." I looked up at the girl who come up to stand behind Janie.
"But.." Janie started and pouted. The girl who was around my age shook her head. Janie sighed and turned to another unfortunate soul sitting near her. I could hear her start asking questions already and laughed at the expression on the guy's face. He looked at me and grinned sheepishly.
"Sorry about Janie. She just got here a little over a week ago. You can tell she is a little outgoing." The girl who had saved me said sitting down.
"A little?" I said with a chuckle. She smiled.
"The names Sasha. I am from the Aphrodite cabin." She said.
"Blair." Was all I said. Someone asked her something and she turned to answer them. I took the time to study her. She had long brown hair with blond highlights. Her eyes were blue. Honestly she intimidated me because she looked beauty-wise perfect. It made sense though she was a daughter of Aphrodite herself. Shaking my head she turned to look back at me.
"You look tired." Sasha said studying me. I managed a weak smile.
"I am just going to head to my cabin. It was nice meeting you. Oh and thanks for saving me from Janie." I said. Sasha looked about to say something but she just nodded. I got up and weaved my way through the tables. A tingling feeling tickled my spine and I turned to see the same boy watching me. I waved before I thought about it and practically ran out of the room. Safely in my cabin I quickly changed and jumped into bed. A little while later I heard people whispering but no one said anything to me and soon the cabin was filled with snores and light breathing. I let out a sigh of relief and fell asleep knowing Barron was sleeping at my feet and watching over me.
