I woke up with a blue cast on my left shoulder that went all the way to my fingers. Hmm weird thing too because how did camp know my favorite color was blue. I noticed a note next to me. I picked it up and it read:
Come to cabin 3 when the doctor says you can, your stuff has been already moved from the Hermes cabin so no need to stop by there again.
-Percy
I wondered why Percy wanted me to go to cabin 3 and why my stuff was moved. I noticed that my cast had a sea green trident on the side but I didn't really pay much attention to it. I asked the Doc if I could go and he said yes. I grabbed my ring and went outside. "How long was I out?" I asked myself. "About a week" said a familiar voice behind me. I turned around and saw Rose walking behind me. "Where you waiting for me to say something to myself so you could answer?" I asked. "Yeah kind of" she admitted. "Is that a little blush I see back there?" I said teasing her. "NO… maybe… don't make me charm speak you!" she threatening me. I started to crack up until my shoulder started hurting. "You said I was out a week?" "Yep Doc said you lost a lot of blood while you were defending me" after she said that she really blushed but I decided to ignore it cause I was sure I blushed too. "Hey, it's what I do" I said. "Well at least you won't be in the Hermes cabin". "Oh that's right about that why not". "Well you kind of got claimed while you were passed out Poseidon claimed you". "How you know it was Poseidon?" I asked a very stupid question. "Cast used to be white and the sea green trident is pretty obvious" she said. "Well blue is my favorite color". "Good at least we have something in common" she said relived.
We walked towards the Poseidon cabin and I heard a voice in my head say:
"She's totally into you"
"Aphrodite?"
"Yep"
"How in Hades did you get in my head?"
"You called?" said Hades
"NO" Aphrodite and I screamed into our minds.
"So Aphrodite how did you know about Rose being into me?"
"Boy are you stupid or do you just act like it? Anyway she did pray for you to wake up, she blushes when your around and oh that's right I CAN TELL WHEN SOMEONE'S IN LOVE"
"Right now can you leave my head?"
"Fine"
"Basil?" asked Rose. "Huh what" I said. "Ugh didn't you listen". "Not really I kind of got distracted by your mom barging into my mind" I said trying to be defensive. "What she say?" asked Rose. "Um nothing" I said trying so hard not to blush. "Basil tell me what she said" she said with a sweet voice. "She said that you were into me then I got all confused of why she was in my mind and she left *inhales* Dam charm speak!" "Yeah that's mom's gift for you".
We were standing in front of the Poseidon cabin and when I opened the door I saw Percy and Annabeth kissing passionately on the bed. I looked at Rose and she looked at me and we both had our best poker face on. Apparently they were so into their kiss that they didn't notice we were here. I cleared my throat and they looked at use with faces redder than blood. "This isn't what it looks like" Percy said. "Looks like you two were having a passionate kiss" Rose said. I noticed some clothes on the floor and then pointed them to Rose. "Oh" she said. "Anyways… I came to take a nap but you can continue ill just sleep next to the forest no problem" I said. "Nah forget it moments gone anyways" Annabeth said. "Just give us a few minutes and we'll be out" Percy said.
We waited outside until both Percy and Annabeth went out. We entered and Rose sat on the bed. "You sure you want to sit there?" I asked. "Yeah why?" Then she gave me a poker face and slowly got up and sat on the other bed. "Oh right" she said. "Anyways I guess that's my bed" I said pointing were she was sitting. "Were you really going to nap?" she asked. "Nah after a week of sleeping I don't think I'll be sleeping for a while" she laughed and I couldn't help but laugh to. I searched my bag to find a few of my favorite books from The 39 Clues. "Ok that's freaky I like those books too". "Maybe Aphrodite was right" I whispered to myself. "What you say?" Rose asked. "Oh nothing just thinking out loud, want a book?". "Sure pass me that one". I passed the medusa plot to her and started to read mine. "Wait aren't you dyslexic?" I asked Rose. "Nah just ADHD I'm guessing from all the books you have your not dyslexic either". "I love reading, especially anything with action" I told her. "I like to read romance novels, guessing that's one of mom's things too".
When I was already on chapter twelve I asked her witch chapter she was on: "twenty five why?" I looked at her with disbelief and answered: "I'm on chapter twelve; well that's enough reading for today". "I know right, I feel like I've been reading all day long". I got out of bed and went into the bathroom to wash my face. Before I got out I overheard Percy chatting with Rose: "So you like Basil?" asked Percy. "Well yeah a little but I don't think he likes me back" after she said that I wanted to jump out of the bathroom and said I did but I kept cool. "Are you kidding when Annabeth was training Basil, Annabeth cut Basil in his jeans he never finished the 'again my favorite' because he saw you while you were reading a book" Percy said.
After that I came out of the bathroom and said hi to Percy pretending I had no idea he was there. "Hey does anyone know if this cast is water proof?" I asked because I wanted to go swimming so bad! "Basil even if it were you can't swim with a broken shoulder" Rose said letting my hopes down. "How long do I have to wear this again?" "About 6 weeks so you're basically on a free schedule" said Percy.
After that I heard a knock on the door and Percy went over to see who it was. A teen with a babyish face came in with his arm around some girl. "Hey Percy I heard I have a great, great, great… o forget it I heard I have a new cousin" he said. "Yeah Frank he's right over there with his um… what are you two exactly?" Percy asked. I looked at Rose and she looked at me and when we spoke it was if she were reading my mind. "Friends but check back in a few weeks then we'll see" we both said at the same time. The girl that Frank had his arm around came over to me and asked: "What happened to you?" "I used to be a great swords man, then I took an arrow to the shoulder" I said (gotta love Skyrim). "Skyrim much Basil?" asked Percy. "Yeah like I always say you got to love Skyrim".
We all started laughing and then the girl said: "I'm Hazel by the way daughter of Pluto, I mean Hades. Guess you could say that I'm your cousin to". "Hey wait cant I eat some ambrosia to heal my bone?" I asked because I really wanted to go swimming. "No. The amount of ambrosia needed to cure that fracture is to much and could disintegrate you instantly" Rose said quickly. "How in the Underworld do you know more about my wound then I do?" "Well I was the first to question the ambrosia part and you would think I would let an Apollo kid put a cast on you? Please you needed delicate hands" was she complimenting herself? "So your answer is that you care about me and you have delicate hands?" I asked. "Well not really" she said. "Um I think we are the witnesses of that" Percy said. "Oh shut up, anyway I must be going now so bye". Before she left she gave me a quick peck on the cheek and headed out. I was latterly in Dumbs Ville when she kissed my cheek because I drifted off to Basil Land and had a stupid love struck look on my face. Good thing Percy snapped me out of it my smacking me on the back of my head. "A little rougher next time Percy, don't think you made my brain jiggle". Hazel and Frank started cracking up and so did Percy. I on the other hand was in pain in various places.
Frank told me that he had the power to shape shift. I honestly didn't believe him at first so he decided to turn into a giant eagle. "Oh My Gods" I said as he turned back to a human. "Well I should probably head back to camp Jupiter. See you guys tomorrow" said Frank as he and Hazel left. "Camp Jupiter?" I asked. "Yeah is this roman camp on San Francisco" Percy said. "Wait isn't that 100,000 miles away?"(don't really know how much just making up words) "Yeah but you see we built this magic portal that when you step through it takes you there" he explained. "Well ill show it to you in the morning now get some more rest. The more you sleep the faster you'll get out of that cast" He said as I quickly got back on my bed and fell asleep.
