(3 days after Monday)

It was early in the morning. We were walking to the beach. When I mean we, I mean, Diego and I. Our parents let us wonder around since they thought it was good for us. As I said we were walking to the beach because it wasn't that far away. It took us about 20 minutes to get there.

"Dezy let's go ready." Diego complained.

"Find let's go." I said with smirk. It has been a while since I been to the beach. When I go to the beach I feel connected with something but I don't know what. The water was perfect to swim in today. As I touch the water, I felt power surge through me. This always happens to me with water, for some reason. I walk back to set down our stuff down while Diego ran in water.

Just I finish putting the stuff down, I heard Diego said "come on. I will race you to the water then the one who swims the farthest wins."

"Fine. Ready 1...2...-"I started to run.

"Hey. That not fair." Diego said while he ran. I was a good 5 feet ahead. I ran into the water ,as I did, I felt power surge through me. I began to swim. I love to swim but with the waves make it hard. I always love a challenge. I finally got to my limit. I couldn't go any further. As I look behind me I saw Diego struggling. I had to giggle cause I usually he don't struggle. Somehow he managed to glare at me. I started to swim back at him.

Once I got near him I said teasing "I see that you need help."
"No I am perfectly fine." Then he started to slowly swim to me. As he did I swam backwards.

"What are you doing?"

"Oh nothing but...This." The started to chase me. I quickly turned around and started to run - wait scratch that - I started to swim away. I could hear him behind me. My mistake was looking behind me. As I did, I bump into someone. He had messy black hair, sea green eyes, and a sun kiss tan. You can tell he is a athlete. That was when I realized that he was looking similar to both the guys in my flashback.

"I am so sorry for bumping into you." I said.

"No worries about it. You seem that you are not from here." The guy said.

"Ya, I am from Arizona. I long way from here." I said trying not to be rude.

"Percy Jackson." He said as he took out his hand.

"Daisy Gomez." I shook his hand.

"What did you get yourself into now?" I heard Diego said.

"Why do you think that I did something wrong?"

"Cause, I know you and plus you are talking to a stranger. No offense." He said as he looked at Percy. Percy just chuckle.

"I not a stranger. She knows me?"

"You do?" Diego said.

"Ya I do. His name is Percy Jackson." I said.

"We in that case I'm Diego GarcĂ­a."

"Hello." Percy said with a loopsided grin.

I took a big risk and said "I want to get you better."

"I thought you knew him." Diego said confused.

"Not really-"I was interrupted by Percy "Well she knows my name so I am not a total stranger."

"That is so true." I said going along.

"Dezy." Diego was warning me.

"Also sure why not. I don't know much people outside my camp so sure why not." Percy said calmly. Then it was uncomfortable silence.

"Let's go to shore and walk around if you want." I said trying to break the silence.

"Sure." Said both guys. We swam back to shore.

"I will be back, if you don't mind." Percy said clearly hiding something.

"Sure go ahead." I said.

Once he left Diego said "What the heck where you thinking. Sometimes I think I don't know you. Now asking him to get know him better when we are leaving in a week or so."

"I really don't know why I ask but in my guts I knew him so I as and you know I will not go against my guts." Trying to say it calm. By the time I finish Percy was coming.

"Hey, I thought you were going to leave me." Percy said with a smile. I saw him eyes. In his eyes I saw many things that he shouldn't have.

"Let's walk that way." I said pointing to the way we were going to walk. The rest of the day was good enough. We got so much in common. I even got his phone number.

But I never realized that he was something else. I never realized that I was something else too.
