Hey peoples! Here's chapter 7! Enjoy and please review!=D
"Mia, I'm so sorry I can't give you a tour of the camp 'cause I have to help with the dragon boat-" she gave a look that said 'I'll tell you later' "But maybe Aaron could?"
"Sorry Annabeth, I've got a meeting with the council." He gave her a meaningful look, "but maybe I could skip it."
"I could give her the tour," Erik said, "I don't mind." He smiled.
I smiled back; maybe this camp isn't so bad I thought. "Thanks." Aaron and Annabeth said together. "Bye guys." Aaron said and left the room.
"Hey, I'm gonna get you some proper clothes." Annabeth said, running off.
I looked down; I was wearing an orange tank top, with a pair of draw string shorts. I blushed and looked at the floor. I looked up at Erik and saw him staring at the Bree's jordan's.
"Are those seven's?" He asked.
"Yeah, she loved those shoes to death." I kinda winced, but I ignored it.
"My mom got them for her for Christmas. She got me a pair, but their back home. Spizikes."
He smiled; he has nice teeth I thought to myself. "Cool! I have a few pairs of jordan's, if you come by my cabin I'll show you them sometime."
I smiled, "Yah, maybe."
Annabeth came in the room and threw me a pair of denim shorts and an orange V-neck shirt that said 'Camp-halfblood' "Thanks Annabeth!" I said.
"Don't mention it. Meet me by the big house in an hour and a half." She said as she was leaving, "Don't worry. Erik knows what I'm talking about."
I looked over at Erik. He winked, which made me want to melt (curse my teen hormones!). "Um, I'm gonna wait outside" Erik said.
"You better." I said.
He laughed, and walked outside. After I finished changing, I looked in the mirror, expecting the worst. The stitches were still there, I had a lot of healed pink scars, some healed burned marks, and some healing bruises, but other than that, I looked pretty good. I used my bangs to cover the stitches on my forehead, and swept my all my hair on one side to cover up a bad burn mark. I went outside and I found Erik leaning on a tree, waiting for me.
"So," he said looking at me up and down "You look nice." I laughed.
"Thanks to you though. If you hadn't fixed me, I would look like hell!"
Now he laughed. "Well that's true,"
I mocked punched him on the arm. He laughed even harder.
"Actually," he said, running a hand through his hair, "you're my best work."
I rolled my eyes. "Okay," he said as we were walking. "Over there, is the forest," He looked at me wryly, "I wouldn't go in there alone if I were you!"
I didn't know whether to be scared or excited. This camp was defiantly something else. As we were walking he was pointing out specific areas. Like the climbing wall (real fire at the top), the stables (Erik laughed at me when a horse came thundering by and almost smashed me), the beach, and the lake.
"And finally, here are the cabins!" Erik said as he pointed out some cabins, "That golden one is the Apollo cabin," Of course it was.
It almost blinded me to look at in broad daylight. "And there's the Ares cabin," he said pointing out a red building with a barb wire fence.
"I'd stay away from those guys if I were you."
"Whose cabin is that?" I pointed towards a big white cabin that looked like a bank. A lightning bold was emblazoned on the double doors.
"Oh," Erik said, looking where I was pointing.
"That's the Zeus cabin, not many campers in there. One girl, Thalia, and now currently, her brother Jason. Except that her brother belongs to the roman camp so technically he's a son of Jupiter. The Roman aspect of Zeus." He explained about how Jason got to Camp Half-blood and about his quest.
"Erik!" This shrill voice called out.
Out came a really pretty Asian girl about sixteen years old with long black hair, chestnut brown eyes, and wearing the miniest skirt I've ever seen, plus a tank top showing cleavage. I was kinda showing cleavage because Annabeth gave me a V-neck shirt but this girl was showing so much cleavage, you could practically see her hot pink, lace bra.
"You wanna hang out?" She asked running her fingers down his chest.
"Sorry Drew," Erik said, stepping away from her.
"I gotta take Mia here," he gestured at me, "On a tour of the camp. She's new."
She looked at me like I wasn't even worth the time of day. "Oh come on." She said seductively (she was seriously gonna make me puke)
"Why don't you get Will here, to take her." Shoving poor Will at me.
"Nah, I promised Annabeth and Aaron. Plus, I want to take her" He turned and walked the other direction, pulling me along.
I felt my cheeks turn pink (hopefully my tan skin disguised that) Once we were out of earshot, I looked at him questionably "What the hell was that about?"
He shoved his hands in his pockets. "Sorry about that. That's Drew, daughter of the Goddess of Love and Beauty. She's banged just about every guy above thirteen in my cabin except me."
He shook his head and kept walking. As were walking I noticed a basketball court. "Oh my God! There's a basket-ball court here?" I asked.
He looked at me curiously. "Yeah. You play?" He asked, tossing me a basket-ball.
I smirked at him, "What? Just 'cause I'm a girl I can't play?"
I went and made a perfect lay up, just to prove my point. Then, a boy with black hair, and skin a little darker than mine came up to me. "Here sweetie," the boy said stepping closer, holding the ball brushing himself against me.
"Want me to help with free shots? 'Cause if you need help in B-ball, I'm your man."
"Yo, Tyson! At least let her be here one day before you start hitting on her!" Erik said, pulling me away from him.
"Oh c'mon," Tyson said. "She likes it." Stepping closer to me.
"No, she doesn't." I said. "And I'm not any one's sweetie."
He looked me up and down, hesitating at my chest. "Ooh, feisty. I like feisty." He said, but instead of hitting on me, he thankfully walked away.
I rolled my eyes, and started to laugh. "Hey, I'm sorry about Tyson." Erik said.
"But you might be used to that." He chuckled.
"Actually no," I said.
"shocking isn't it?" I winked.
"Sure guys tried to grind me during dances but they never really liked me," I laughed, "You know, the ADHD, dyslexia."
Erik was shaking his head "Well their stupid. As well as a nice body," he said winking at me (I'm pretty sure I blushed) you have an awesome personality."
"Thanks Erik." I said.
"So who taught you how to play?" He asked, watching me skeptically make a free throw shot.
"My mom taught me. I was on my team at school, so was Bree. But Bree was way better than me. She was our team's MVP."
My voice cracked a little when I mentioned Bree's name, my breath caught a little. "Hey," Erik put an arm on my shoulder. "You okay?"
"Yah," I said looking at his face, which looked genuinely concerned for me.
" I'm Fine, thanks." I said.
After that, we started to shoot around. While we were playing, I noticed that Erik was around 6 feet and I was about 5'8 so if I stood up straight, I would measure up to his neck. My head would fit right in the nook in between his chin and his neck (I think that what you call the space between your neck and your chin) perfectly…. I lost my train of thought when he threw me the ball.
"Hey Mia!" Annabeth called, standing on the outside of the court.
I turned and saw Annabeth waving with a red haired girl. I turned back to Erik, "Thanks, Erik. See you later!"
He gave me one last smile, as I passed him back the ball. "See ya, Mia." I walked over to them.
"Okay," Annabeth said, pointing to this really big house where I spent a few days when I was all broken.
"You'll like Chiron," she grinned, "He's a pretty interesting guy."
