Recap:
"Well Layla, you've just been claimed." Chiron stated.
"Come again?" I said, clearly baffled.
"Um, Chiron how is lil' Layla half- Aphrodite and half-Athena?" Grover asked taking a bite out of one of the armrest on the wooden chairs. "Well, back during the Battle of Troy, Aphrodite, Athena, and Hera were all in love with the same guy. But Hera, remaining loyal to Zeus left back to Olympus. Aphrodite and Athena continue to fight until they are both blessed with twin girls of the mortal. But one child was dying while the other glowed with health. In distress, the goddesses called Hades and he made a deal with them. He would allow one child to live and have the other one serve him in the Underworld. So Layla the dying twin, was granted the health of her twin while the other one serves Hades for an eternity." Chiron explained. "So I was the weakling?" I asked, on the verge of tears. "Yep." Grover said, popping the p. Me and Percy glared at Grover. "Well, I will go announce your arrival to the campers and have the harpies put your stuff into your cabin once we take a vote. And Layla, if you are feeling better, you may wander around the camp as you wish." Chiron said following Grover out of the tent, leaving me and Percy alone. "Well do you want me to give you a tour of the camp?" Percy asked. I accepted even though I am beyond pissed. That way I can catch him off guard and kill him later. As he showed me where everything was, all of the other campers were staring at us together and whispering. How could I not be uncomfortable? We ended our tour with the Aphrodite cabin. It smelled of Chanel no.9. A medium height girl with ash colored hair and topaz colored eyes walked toward us. She was definitely someone who was pretty and smart. She smiled at me kindly and gave Percy a nod, to signal that she could take it from here. "Hi I'm Amanda, head counselor of Aphrodite cabin. You must be the newbie Layla. It looks like we're sisters." Amanda said cheerfully. Well, she seemed nice enough. "Drake! Please don't break up with me!" A girly voice pleaded outside the cabin. "Oh no. Here we go again. And btw, the girly voice you heard shrieking outside is one of your sisters as well. Her name's Patricia, she may not be the smartest but she's a whiz at creating the perfect smokey eye." "Cool." I replied nodding. Suddenly, Patricia, a blonde with caramel highlights burst through the door with tears in her eyes. "Oh Amanda, Drake broke up with me! And who's the girl with amazing taste in odd colored hair feathers?" She said in between gasps. "Oh that's are new sister, Layla Sanders." Amanda replied. Patricia ran into Amanda's arms and started sobbing. I mouthed, "Who's Drake?" Amanda mouthed back, "Hermes cabin." I didn't really feel like standing there awkwardly, so I just quietly sat down at my new bunk and began unpacking. After a few minutes, a trumpet sounded. "It's dinner time." Amanda explained. The feast was truly spectacular. I had roasted chicken with herbs on a bed of white rice. And the goblets could be filled with any drink you wanted. Percy asked me to go on a walk after the campfire and I accepted obviously another attack strategy. "So I was wondering, if we are still like best friends?" Percy asked nervously. "Um, are kidding me! You expect me to forgive you like nothing ever happened between us. If you do then Percy Jackson, you are so mistaken!" I yelled furiously before storming off. I walked to the lake even though I knew no one would be up this late so I figured I would be alone. "Stupid son of Poseidon… Always getting in my way." I muttered curses to the sea in anger. "Are you okay?" A male voice called out. As he stepped out of the shadows, I caught my breath. He was truly breathtaking. His golden blond hair gleamed in the moonlight and his gorgeous blue eyes shone like crystal blue pools of water. "Um. Yeah. No." I replied gently, flopping into the sand and crying lightly. "What's troubling you? I'm Dylan Heras, by the way. I live in the Apollo cabin." He said lightly, sitting next to me. "Well this guy that goes to camp here who've I have been best friends with since forever disappeared and I took it really hard and I just saw him again and he's just frustrating me. And I'm Layla. I live in Aphrodite cabin." I sniffled. Over the next hour, I got to know Dylan really well. He had had a rough life too. He got his hair from his dad and his eyes from his mom who was a model. He started acting at 7 months old and got lost in a fire at his first movie premiere when he lost his mom. Apollo happened to pass over LA and scooped him up and dropped him off at Camp Half-Blood. No questions asked. We both noticed it was getting pretty late and he offered to walk me back to my cabin. As we reached the door, we both leaned in for a kiss. But, he had rubbed off on me since our time together and I put my finger to his lips. "Save it for tomorrow." I whispered playfully. He smirked with satisfaction and kissed my cheek instead. I sent him on his way as I closed my cabin door. With giggles arousing from the cabin, I exchanged all that happened tonight to my fellow sisters. Little did I know Dylan and I weren't the only ones out tonight.
Percy's POV
How dare Dylan go after Layla! I mean we aren't a "thing", but still. When I saw them almost kiss then him kiss her on the cheek, I thought for sure I was gonna drown Lover Boy. But, I showed some restraint. Next time, he won't be so lucky.
Ooh, Percy's jealous!
