Dylan's POV
I must have crashed on the couch because when I woke up there was a flat screen TV, a coffee table and a girl looking at me. I rubbed my eyes.
"Morning sleeping beauty" she said leaning over the breakfast bar, it was Sylvi.
"What time is it?" I asked
"About 6" she replied lifting a mug of the bench and coming to sit across from me, I noticed she was wearing a see through cream top with lime green shorts underneath she had a plain hot pink bikini.
"I was about to go for a swim, wanna come?" She took a sip of her coffee? Tea?
"Sure why not, just give me a minute" I walked over to my suitcase which had been thrown against a wall and sorted threw it until I found my swim trunks, picking them up I entered the bathroom and came out five minutes later wearing black trunks with blue strips. Sylvi had finished her drink and was putting the cup in the sink. I looked at the hotel we were, the kitchen was modern as was the living room, there were bay doors with light silk curtains.
"Nice place" I said "what hotel is this?"
"Oh this isn't a hotel" Sylvi replied coming to stand next to me "it's my auntie A's. She letting is borrow it" she opened the doors and a warm ocean breeze, that smelled a lot like Percy, wafted threw the door.
"Smells like your friend" Sylvi laughed,I laughed too
"I was just thinking the same thing" I said as we walked out the doors onto the beach. The sand was golden and there were palm trees lining the beach, Sylvi lead me down to the water which was crystal clear. Sylvi pulled off the top and shorts as I waded out into the water. I lay on my back and looked up at the sky.
"Pretty isn't it?" Sylvi said next to me, I nodded. "That ways New Zealand" she pointed to the south east "and then Antarctica is down that way" she pointed south "and then the islands as over there" she pointed north east.
"Cool, do you wanna go there one day?"
"Yeah, there's a lot of places I want to go" she sighed and I could've sworn I heard her mutter I wanna go home. I brushed it off as she dived under the water. She came up about 5metres away from me.
"Well?" She called "you coming?" I shifted off my back and swam over.
"Where are we going?" I asked "how do you know where to go?"
"This is my aunts house, you think I've never been here before?" She answered before grabbing my hand and pulled me, swimming, over to a alcove. The rocks were rainbow coloured and corals and seaweeds of hundreds of different colours surrounded the pool we came up in.
"Wow" I breathed as she swam over to the edge.
"My best friends and I would come here every time we visited my aunt" she had pulled her self out and was leaning over the pool slightly to wring out her hair. She sat down on a rock so that her feet were dangling in the pool, she patted the space next to her gesturing for me to sit down next to her. I did as asked.
"What's something you wish you regretted but you don't?" She asked
"Um I don't know, my life is full of regret, you?"
"My tattoo" she answered smiling slightly.
"You have a tattoo? Can I see it?" She brought her right foot and just underneath her ankle bone written in greek was family. It bothered me slightly.
"Why family?" I asked, she looked surprised
"You speak greek?" She asked
"Yeah, so why'd you get it?"
"It reminds me of home" she answered vaguely.
"How long have you had it?"
"About six months, so I've told you about my life what about yours?"
"Well Sage and I are half siblings, we have different fathers, I only found out about a year ago, then the summer of that year I went to this camp and my girlfriend got anorexia, I broke up with her and she died"
"That's your life with the girl, what about before that?"
"Well you see before that my life is pretty boring"
"Then make something up, I know nothing about you" she advised
"Thanks, I'll think about that next time" she laughed, and it haunted me, I knew of heard that laugh before but I just couldn't place it.
"Let's get back" she said suddenly standing up.
"Why?"
"Well we've been here for about an hour, so sage will be getting up soon. That girl works like clockwork" I laughed this time as I stood up. She dived into the pool and swam out to sea. I followed her. When we reached the beach house Sage, Annabeth and Percy were up sitting on the couches watching a TV show. Annabeth was very tense, I knew she was anticipating a monster attack, so was I. It made no sense that one hadn't attacked yet. We had three demigods here, two extremely powerful demigods. And me. As we neared the house they looked up. Sage got up and ran to Sylvi hugging her.
"Oh god, you had me so worried" she cried
"Hey, I just went for a swim"
"With my brother" Sage wiggled her eyebrows.
"Mind out of the gutter Sage. Out of the gutter" she tapped sages nose. They both laughed. I looked on in envy the ease they had with the friendship. They could tease each per without having to worry about saying something about someone's dead sibling.
"Breakfast?" Sylvi asked
"Yup, you get the eggs, I'll do drinks" oh gods they had a routine, I sat down on the couch as Sylvi got out four eggs and cracked them into a bowl adding salt, pepper and milk then whisked them while Sage got two mugs out of the cupboard, a packet of hot cocoa, a tub of honey and a lemon. She boiled the jug and put the lemon juice in a mug and added a teaspoon of honey, then put the cocoa mix in got the milk and filled it up halfway. When the jug finished boiling Svi was plating up the eggs and them they both sat down on the couch with their food. I'm pretty sure my jaw was on the floor.
"What?" Sylvi asked
"How did you do that?"
"6 months of living in a boarding school that makes you make your own breakfast and ya learn stuff" she shrugged. When she finished she went up stairs and got changed back into what she had been wearing early except this time she had a white singlet under her top and cream fabric sneakers. Hayley, Emma and Lily joined us.
"Oh great" Hayley sighed
"What?" Percy asked
"More early birds" Lily finished.
"So what do you guys want to do?" Sylvi looked at us.
"I dunno" I shrugged. Lily smiled evilly.
"Ever gone cliff diving?"
