Sami:

The past week went by fast. It has become a regular thing for me to go see Leo at night. We see each other almost three times a weeks. It has also been a regular thing to see Em at night, I would consider us friends but you can never be sure what that girl thinks. Leo and I have been spending more time together but I don't think anyone suspects anything.

Well now you find me trudging through the forest again. I soon find Leo in his usual place sitting under a tree. I slide down next to him.

"Hey," He says with a little half smile "I guess I'm still important to you."

"Of course you are!" I say then we share a quick kiss. He stretches his legs out and props himself up on his elbows.

"I'm so glad I made it here." He says.

"What do you mean?" I ask.

"I don't know. I guess it's just CampHalf Blood is way better than foster homes and other crap like that."

"I understand where you're coming from."

"Being here comes with such a cost though."

"Yeah... I love it here but I would love to just meet one of my parents." I trail off, I don't know where I am going with this.

"Sometimes I think it would be better to not have known my mom."

"Why is that?"

"I wonder if it would be less painful." This ends our conversation. I lay my head down on Leo's chest and I close my eyes and think. What if it is better to not have known my mom? What kind of person could just leave their child with their mom and never come back? Now that I think about it do I really want to meet my mom?

"Hey Sami." It's Leo.

"Ya." I respond without opening my eyes.

"I heard you can sing."

"Um ok. And?" I ask.

"You should sing to me someday." He has a playful smile and such a glint in his eyes that I want to ask him what he's up to.

"Maybe if you're sick or dying."

"No not like that!" He laughs, "Do you sing anything that's not in ancient Greek?"

"Yes, of course I do! But I'm not singing unless you do!"

"Oh really." He lifts his eyebrows and starts to sing horribly off tune, "I know a girl named Sami, she meets with me every night, she always acts tough but I can see her true side when we're alone."

I roll on top of him and shove my hand over his mouth, "Stop it!" He rolls me onto my back and pins down my wrists. I pull against his grip but he has the upper hand.

"She's not tough at all." He says and then he leans into me and as our mouths touch we roll over so he's on his back. We continue to kiss and I melt into him.

I wake up on top of Leo. His arms are around my waist and my head is on his chest. I check my watch. It's 2:00am! Shit! We must have slept for two hours. I shake Leo's shoulders and his eyes flutter open.

"Leo." I say.

He replies, "Damn, what time is it?" I crack a smile at his confusion.

"2:00."

"Aw shit." His voice sounds so adorable and soft when he's tired. It's completely different than his usual playful voice.

"I know." I quickly get up and brush the dirt off my jeans. "You sound super cute right now."

He gets up and says, "S'cuse me?" He still has confusion in his voice but he's no longer tired.

"You ruined it."

"Ruined what?"

"Your sleepy voice was adorable."

"You like it?"
"Ya."

"Well then you should sleep with me more often!" I start to blush fiercely and a mischievous smile breaks out across his face. "I know we need to go back to our cabins now." He puts on a puppy dog pout and I laugh.

"Good night." I smile.

"Don't let the bed bugs bite!" He smiles then holds my shoulders and kisses me before we go our separate ways.

I'm almost back to my cabin, maybe five more minuets of walking. I hear the trees rustle and out of nowhere Em jumps down in front of me.

"Maybe you should sleep with him more often." She says, her face is serious but her eyes say something completely different. This statement shocked me. How could she have known what Leo said?

"What! How would you know he said that?" I ask.

"You guys are loud." She says with an annoyed look.

"Well why were you watching us?"

"Bleh! I wasn't watching you! It's just hard to not here giggling and gross kissing sounds when you walk by a teenage couple accidently."

"Well, this is extremely awkward." I say, "You can't tell anyone ok."

"If I would, who do I have to tell? Don't worry though, your secret is safe with me."

"Thanks. Um, alright then. I'm gonna go now. " I start to walk back through the woods.

Em:

So, Sami and Leo are a thing, a secret thing. How stupid is that! Might as well not keep it a secret because there are too many Aphrodite bitches here. Wonder what that Brett guy would think? I've noticed him flirting with so many girls. He's never noticed me, but I like it that way.

It's around 4am in the morning and I just got under my bed covers. Time to get some shut eye.

I'm up in a tree. The sun is starting to slowly sink into the ground. I here Sami laugh, I look down and there she is with Leo. Gross. They start kissing, so I turn the other way, but right before I can't see them Leo morphs into Brett. Sami morphs into a stupid Aphrodite girl. Out of nowhere my breath catches and I fall off the tree. when I land, my head hurts so much and I still can't breath. I slowly get up and Brett is still kissing that girl. I don't know why, but the sight of it hurts more then the pain I feel from my head.

My eyes snap open.

I can breath, thank goodness I can breath! I touch my head, but it doesn't hurt anymore. It was just another messed up dream.

But the weird thing is, a part of me still hurts.

AN: Aww Em... Please R&R ~CaitCait12
