I don't own. Otherwise, in the Lost Hero, there would be some changes.

AN: I'm sorta rushing this cause I was really busy today, so this one's more of a drabble! OH, and pretend the Bronze Dragon never happened please! And REALLY sorry if I misspelled a name or something! And I know that in LO, these two . . . went, but I just HAD to do this one! Sooo . . .ON WITH THE STORY!


Today was the day before the day. What's that?, you may say. Well, the day is Valentine's Day. And why is it called the day? Well, because that's the day Charles Beckendorf was gonna have his first date (ever, may I add) with Silena Beauregard.

Now, he was nervous. And in his mind, he had every right to be. I mean, he's a child of Hephaestus, the "deformed, lame" god and was about to go out with a child of Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty. Who, when you thought about it, are married, which means in a twisted, backhanded, reverse sorta way, Silena and Beckendorf were siblings. So, they're dating their brother and si-

No. No. Not gonna think that at all. Cause it'd be just plain WRONG if he was feeling something like this for his sis-

Nope. No way. Godly DNA doesn't matter, Godly DNA doesn't matter, Godly DNA doesn't matter. It was his new mantra ever since he first thought . . . that.

"Hey, Beckendorf," said Mitchell, from the Aphrodite cabin, "you know your date with Silena tomorrow?"

Beckendorf just nodded, and looked at him in confusion.

"Yeah, why do you ask?"

Mitchell just whistled, and said, "Hey guys, over here!"

A buncha other guys from the Aphrodite cabin came over, and one of them said "We're gonna help you prepare for your date with our sister."

To say Beckendorf was relieved, was an understatement. The stress lifted off his shoulders so fast, you would've thought that he was a spring. So needless to say, as soon as he answered, he was immediately moved to the Aphrodite cabin.

2 hours, a lotta clothes, hairspray, shampoo, and other stuff later

"So remember, you have to use this one before you put this on."

"Don't forget to use this hairspray after you shampoo using this!"

"Guys, guys, I got it!" Beckendorf said. "Thanks, but now I think I have to go!"

Everything the Aphrodite dudes "taught" Beckendorf took the whole day; now it was around eleven, and all he wanted was some sleep.


Next day

For the day, Chiron allowed campers to have their dates in the forest for some "privacy" (if you can call monsters, naiads, nymphs, dryads, and maybe other campers privacy).

"Good luck, Beckendorf!"

"You look great!"

"Lemme know if you get in her pants!"

That last comment was said by Connor Stoll, who was promptly hit in the head by Travis.

"Dude, that sorta stuff is just sick!"

"Exactly why I wanna know! She is hot."

That resulted in another hit. Then they were outta sight, probably planning their next prank. Or arguing. Or pickpocketing. We'll never know.

"Hey, what happened to my watch!"

. . . or maybe we will. BACK TO BECKENDORF, he was sitting down with Silena, talking and eating the picnic that she brought, while he was thinking one thing: DNA doesn't matter, DNA doesn't matter, DNA doesn't mat-

THEN (after he implanted that in his brain), he thought, wow, she looks really pretty- wait, why is she leaning in . . . ohmygodsohmygodsohmy-

Well, you can tell what happens next.


Well, sorry if my story is crap, but as I said in the AN above, I was rushing since I spent almost the whole day outside. And I had a LOT of sugar so I might have screwed this up a bit too . . . I'll come back and edit it later when I have more time. REVIEW PLEASE!
