Sami:

It was now 1:00. That would make it about an hour and a half since I kissed Leo. The rest of the "date" including lying under the trees chatting with my head on his chest. I remember waking up so I assume I fell asleep but that was fine with me. Now I am walking back through the forest. I am giddy and my head is somewhere else. That's probably why I didn't notice the fire until it was too late. I saw the blaze and jumped back only to find my self fall over something else and land on my ass. Attractive I know.

"I thought I was the only one that went out in the woods at night" I look over and see a person. I tripped over a person!

"I won't tell anyone." She says.

"What? Tell anyone about what?" I replies. I think I freaked out a little too much because she laughs.

"You know, being out after curfew." She replies.

"So are you."

"Touché." She says while standing up and extending her hand. She is about a head shorter than me with wavy black hair. It is the girl from the Hades cabin. "I think I like you. My name's Em."

I take her hand and say, "'Sami."

She looks at me curiously and says," You were the girl with... him."

"Him?" I ask trying to keep my voice even, but on the inside I'm freaking out. Did she see me with Leo?

"You know, I think his name is Brett." She looks down at her shoes while speaking.

"Ya, I'm with him a lot. He is my brother." I say cautiously. What is she getting at?

"That's... cool. Well I think I'm going to go now. Good luck getting back in your cabin." she smiles awkwardly and then steps on the fire, leaving without another word. Shit, I hadn't thought of that.

Em:

Oh my Gods that was so awkward! I never thought she'd actually stumble upon my campfire. I should have hidden myself better. I shouldn't have mentioned Brett! Now she might suspect something! I don't like him, he's just a part of a bad nightmare. Hopefully Sami doesn't care about what I said. She most likely will forget about me in the morning.

But I can't help myself for worrying if she'll mention me to Brett. That would be a nightmare come true.

Sami:

Getting back into the cabin was the easy part. I just climbed back through the window I left through. The hard part was waking up the next morning. I wake up to Brett shaking my shoulders. I sit up and look at him. He has a plate with some toast and an orange on it. I look at him quizzically.

"You, sure slept in." He says.

"I needed my beauty sleep." I mumble sarcastically and roll over.

"You missed breakfast." This catches my attention. He laughs and hands me the plate, "You need to eat."

"Thanks." I say. I then shove the food in my mouth.

"I'll meet you outside in a bit. I wanna see how well you can use that new bow." He smirks then walks out the door.

Em:

For breakfast today I'm eating your oh-so-common toast with butter. I'm still nervous about Sami possibly telling Brett about me. I know I should toughen up and forget about it, but I usually never talk about things with other people.

After breakfast I walk back to my cabin and draw stuff. I don't feel like going outside today, it's not like this is the first time I skipped training. One of the drawings I'm working on today is what I think my dad looks like. I'm guessing he has black hair because my mother has blonde hair. His eyes are most likely black too, considering he's the god of death.

I don't like to think of my mother. She was a busy woman and never had time for me. My housekeeper would help me with homework I'd never finish and she'd be the one to come pick me up from detention. I always despised my mother for barely noticing my existence. Heck, she ignored me so much that my housekeeper taught me to speak French.

But, never mind about that. I should just focus on perfecting my sketches.

Sami:

That afternoon I meet Brett at our usual training area. He winks and shoots his arrow right into the middle of the tree trunk. He smirks and sits down on the grass a few feet away. He gives me a challenging look so I level my stance and look directly at the tree. I make a big deal over pulling my arm back and shifting my weight. At the last second I pivot around and fire the arrow directly at Brett. It lands with a thud. It sticks up from the ground about an inch away from Brett's knee. He looks petrified.

"Damn Sami!" He says, out of breath and clearly shocked, "I need that leg!"

I laugh, "Beat that!"

Brett walks over toward me and says, "Am I gonna have to throw you in the lake again?"

"No, No, No!" I grab my bow and run into the forest. I weave through trees and jump boulders. I stop for a moment to catch my breath. As my back is turned Brett walks up behind me and throws me over his shoulder. I pound on his back and scream at him to let me go, he finds this extremely funny. That is until his leg is pulled out from under him and he goes crashing to the ground. I instinctively tuck and roll out of the fall.

"What the fuck!" Brett yells. I would laugh but I was thinking the same thing. Out of the trees comes, "guess who?", if you guessed Leo you would be corrected. What was he doing here? He hands me my bow.

"You left this a while back." He says. He then walks over to Brett and inspects the rope loop around his ankle and mutters under his breath, "I can't believe that actually worked."

"What was that?" Brett asks in a defensive tone as he gets up.

"That my friend," Leo replies, "Is the short notice work of Leo Valdez." At this point I can tell that I have a goofy smile on my face and I'm trying really hard not to laugh.

"But, why?" Brett asks giving me a "is this guy for real look", I just shrug.

"A man must always help a lady in need."

"Oh I get it. Sami got her friend from cabin nine to save her ass."

"Yup and I did a pretty good job."

"He did kick your ass." I say as I swing my arms around both of the boys shoulders. "Let's go get some lunch!"
