Chap. 7: Camp Jupiter
Authors note: I'm running out of ideas so please review. Warning might be some mild language in this Chap so I bleeped it.
Disclaimer: If u want a disclaimer go check chapter 1 cause I'm tired of writing them.
I woke up with a book in my face and that was weird because I don't really remember reading after everyone left. I saw Percy sleeping like a rock and snoring like a pig (I wonder how I slept last night). I couldn't take the snoring anymore so I grabbed the book and threw it at him. "Hey that what was that for!" he screamed. "Two reasons: one u snore like a pig. Two: I'M HUNGRY!" I said. "Ten more minutes" I threw another book at him. "Ok ok I'm getting up" he said whining. I went to the bathroom to brush my teeth and hair witch if Rose saw me like this she'd immediately give me a makeover. I put on my Camp shirt and now stained with blood and ripped jeans.
Percy took a shower and then said that it was time to go to the mess hall. I put on my ring and headed outside with Percy by my side. When we got there I got the best breakfast any meat lover would love, bacon. We sat in the Poseidon table and I munched on my bacon like there was no tomorrow. "Dude slow down your eating like a pig eating um… pig" Percy said. "Well I'm sorry for loving bacon so much. Plus this bacon is straight and burned, just the way I love em" I said defensively. "If I were Rose how would you be eating?" Percy gave me a question that I knew if I dodged it he would laugh. "Sit straight, use a fork and not make the nom nom nom sound" I said with a not very happy face. "Exactly. You think I eat like that in front of Annabeth?" He asked. "I know you ate something in front of her like that" I countered. "Smart a**" "Couldn't resist, by the way next time remember you have a brother now" I said happily as I won the argument.
I got a quick glimpse at the Aphrodite table and saw Rose eating an egg and cheese sandwich. She saw me staring at her and blushed and mouthed 'hi'. I mouthed hi back and continued eating."You like her allot don't you Basil" said Percy grinning at me. "Oh shut up" I said as I took a piece of paper and wrote a note to Rose that said:
Meet me at the same spot when I took an arrow at noon.
-Basil
Yeah I know it was a short note but hey nothing that needed to be said. I folded the note into a paper airplane, wrote Rose at the side and threw it at the Aphrodite table. Piper caught it glanced at me and gave it to her. "Hey Percy can you teach me something?" I asked. "Sure Basil what is it?" "How to control water". "Sure but is there a specific reason?" "Yes". "Can you tell me?" "Nope". "Ok fine let's go". Percy took me to the Big House and asked Chiron if he could take me to see Camp Jupiter. He said yes and took us to a room were a Portal glowing purple was at the end of the room. Percy told me to step in and I did as he said.
The moment I stepped outside the portal I felt nauseous and almost threw up in some lady's purple cape. "Dang boy you look green" Percy said as he was looking completely fine. "Percy did you tell him to hold his breath so that he doesn't get nauseous?" the lady said. "Gosh I knew I forgot something" Percy said while face palming. "Bucket!" I screamed as I rushed toward the trash can and vomited. "Hi I'm Reyna co-praetor of Camp Jupiter what's your name?" she asked. "Reyna as in Spanish for queen?" I asked. "How did you know?" she asked. "I'm Hispanic. O by the way I'm Basil". "I'm Jason praetor of Camp Jupiter" a blonde hair dude said. "Oh your Piper's Boy… Friend? What are you?" "Basil not in front of Reyna" Percy said. "Nah it's ok I'm cool with it and yes Basil he is Pipers boyfriend" she said. Percy showed me around Camp and New Rome which was like a tiny replica of the actual thing. We went to the Little Tiber where Percy started teaching me. By the time it was eleven we headed back to Camp Half-Blood. This time I held my breath and as I came out of the portal I ran out of the room towards the forest at the spot where I took the arrow.
I saw Rose there early and I said: "Why are you early its eleven thirty?" I said. "Basil that pacific time here its one thirty" she said and sounded furious. "Oh right well I know how to make it up to you". "If its kissing me I'm mad and it might not be a good idea" good thing she said that now instead of a slap. "Ok time for plan b" I said I made a water horse (I don't mean a hippocampus I mean a horse made out of water just to be clear) come to shore and it licked Rose in the cheek. "How did you know I love horses?" "Oh well um… Aphrodite told me". "Ugh that woman can't stop talking can she" Rose complained. "So did I make it up to you?". She laughed at that and gave me a hug. "Yes" she said. "Enough for a kiss?" "Nope, but try again tonight at seven at the beach" and with that she planted a kiss on my cheek and headed back to camp.
I just realized I'm going to have to wait until dinner so that I'll be hungry for a few hours. I went to my room to take a nap to kill some time. Percy came with Annabeth while they were kissing and they got on bed. Annabeth started moaning as Percy kissed her neck. I had two options: one let them continue and two stop them before I'm scared for life. I decided to go with two. "You need to remember that you have another one living here" I said as they broke their kiss and looked at me with their faces as red as a tomato. "Um we thought u were with Rose" Annabeth said. "I was suppose to meet her two hours ago but I got caught up in Pacific Time when I visited Camp Jupiter" "Yeah being late for a date will cost you… wait a minute is that why you wanted to learn how to control water?" "Maybe… what do you care" "Well you are my brother so I care a little" "Well I'm trying to nap here because someone made me lose lunch".
And with that I turned off the lights and tried to fall asleep. I began to hear moaning again and said: "I'm still here" and then the moaning stopped. I tried to fall asleep but the fact of the beach I mean she knows I can't get my cast wet. Well Percy did show me how to never get wet in water unless I want to but I still can't swim because of my shoulder. With that I was left wondering and fell asleep.
