Percy's POV
"Lily… why…" I broke off. She shrugged. We just awkward stood there. An Iris message popped up. "Aphrodite!" Lily squeaked. "Hello, Lily. Percy, why are you out in the woods?" "You sent me that vision," I said simply. The goddess sighed. "You're a poor thing, but you just needed that. If you don't recall the lightning bolt he stole-""Don't get me started on that," I growled. "Well, you also know how he also stole Hades helm, too, right? Oh, and that time he tricked Annabeth to hold the sky-""STOP!" I screamed. "Alright, my dear. Well, based on the information, he uses trickery." "Wait. So he tricked Annabeth to make her stay with him and-""She still liked him truthfully-""to abandon me. But… how did he get to…." Trickery and slickness. DUH, PERCY. I just stood there. "Yes, you get it now. So-"The connection broke off. I could almost hear the goddess in my head now. Appear that you and Lily are now a pair. That will be the key. Even in public. Tell Dionysus, but not Chiron. I suddenly felt dizzy. The world started to spin and I vision turned black.
Hunter's POV
I walked back to my cabin glumly. How would she turn me down? I sat in my bed. Well, I'll have to figure out who is going with her. But I only had a week. I scooted inside my blankets and took a nap. I had a dream. I saw Percy and Lily walk into the woods. Lily led Percy to Zeus's fist. Right beside it, there was a little glass thing square. Lily said something. Percy touched the glass. There was a vision. Luke and Annabeth… I couldn't believe it. They were… before I could finish my thought in the dream, Percy was smoking. Flames curled off his shirt and hair. Lily pulled him back. Percy started to say something, but Lily pulled him into a hug. That wasn't irregular. She does that a few times. When they pulled off, they just stood there until an Iris message popped up. There was Aphrodite. They were having a conversation, but I couldn't hear it as if somebody pressed the mute button. After his conversation with Aphrodite, he fainted. Lily rushed down and checked his temperature. It must've been fine, because she seemed to sigh. The dream turned pitch black.
Hazel's POV
Frank and I decided to visit CHB because everybody went there except them. Right before Percy and the crew left, I broke up with Frank and decided to hook up with Leo. Two reasons. 1. for Sammy and… 2. Just because I like Leo more. A lot like Sammy. I'm kind of glad I didn't marry Sammy. Or else dating Leo would be…. Never mind. So anyways, Frank decided to go out with a daughter of Bacchus. Okay, your first impression is Seriously? The god of wine's daughter?! But she's nice, strong, pretty, and defiantly prefers grape Sunkist instead of wine. So anyways, we're still friends. When I got to CHB, I wanted to run to the Vulcan- urm, I mean the Hephaestus- cabin, but I was stopped by Piper. "You need to let Chiron know you're here," she said. "Dang it! " "Do you want to get attacked by a bunch of Greeks? We not be not fighters as much as you, but we will do anything to protect the camp. C'mon, let's get going." When we got to the place known as the Big House, a centaur came out. "Chiron…" Frank mumbled under his breath. "You know him?" "Um, yeah, I mean, no…" Frank said. "EAT MY #2! DIE!" I heard somebody shout. "Hello, demigods. Now that you're here, I'll announce that you have arrived so we don't kill you. While that's happening, go to your cabins, get settled, and explore. My name is Chiron," Chiron said. We were excused. I quickly ran to my cabin and settled in. It took 5 minutes. After that, I ran to the Hephaestus cabin and knocked on the door. The person who answered was a girl with a bandana on her head and had soot on her face. Wait, correct that, she had it all over her. "Hi. You look new. Right now, we're working on a project, so can you hurry?" "Um, sure. Is Leo Valdez in?" I politely asked. "Leo? Oh, yeah. Dragon Ship Dude. I'll get him. VALDEZ! VISITOR!" the girl shouted over her shoulder. "Kay, I'm coming! No worries! Just this one- AUGH! Kay! Be there!" I could hear and feel footsteps underground. What looked like a trap door opened. When he saw me, his eyes seemed to sparkle. "Haze!" Leo shouted with glee. "Hi, Leo!" "Valdez, did you get your part done?" the girl in the red bandanna asked. "Yeah, I'll get going now." He ran towards me and closed the door. He took my arm and dragged me to the forest. I didn't really get to see the camp, but I didn't care as long as Leo was with me. He pressed me to a tree and we started kissing.
Lily's POV
He gained conscious. "Ugh lu gug a…." Percy mumbled. "Percy!" I said, relieved. "Hm? Oh, hi, Lily. Um… how long was I out?" "Not very long. Probably 1 hour and forty minutes." He looked like he just remembered something. "APHRODITE! ARE YOU SERIOUS?!" he screamed. "Whoa! Percy, what is it?" I asked. "Ugh… Aphrodite is warned, she might be on my not-so-favorite-gods-and-goddesses list. She told me something. That…" the words seemed to come right out of his mouth as if Aphrodite herself was possessing Percy. "Appear that you and Lily are now a pair. That will be the key. Even in public. Tell Dionysus, but not Chiron." "Wait, what?! We have to fake- never mind. Katniss, I can feel your pain now…" I'm not dyslexic, FYI. Percy sat up and I slipped my hand in his. "Percy, we have to listen to Aphrodite." Percy looked shocked. "What?!" I sighed. I didn't like the idea either. "Percy, we have to listen to her advice," I said. I was surprised what happened next. Percy had pushed me to a tree and kissed me for a real, long time. When we broke apart from each other, I was nearly out of air. I noticed we were still holding hands. I was probably as red as a tomato, even though nobody was looking. I couldn't believe what he said next. "Lily, if Annabeth never existed, you would've been my first pick." I felt my heart beating real fast now. Next thing I know, Percy's kissing me again.
Hunter's POV
I saw them. Yes, I did. I was taking a walk and saw Percy and Lily kissing for a really long time. I was heart broken. Especially when Percy put his arms around Lily's waist. They were lovers, no doubt in that. After they finally broke apart, Percy muttered something when they finally broke apart. Then he kissed Lily again for a long time. I wanted to stab Percy. I ran away as far as possible.
Percy's POV
I had always felt like Annabeth was onto something ever since the quest started. Then this happened. We broke apart after our 2nd kiss. I couldn't deny it anymore, I liked Lily. That was pretty much the best kiss I've ever had except for the fact it seemed like somebody was watching us and ran off. Lily smelled like peppermint. I had to get going to archery class, which I suck at. This time, my aiming wasn't so bad today. Even after the kisses, I was still mad at one person who had made my life much more difficult than it should've been. My target was Luke Castellan.
Yeah, that's pretty much all. Sorry, most of this had kissing in this instead of action and talking, but I needed some romance quickly and I don't really know what to write. I'm really sorry for those Frazel fans, I know there are a lot of you out there, but I prefer Lezel or whatever you call it. Oh yeah, HG fans, I have a story where you can submit your own tribute. It's called: You're Invited to the Hunger Games! I need more stylists and mentors, so please do that…. I think some tribute spots are still open. :D Please R&R!
