A/N: Thanks to artemisisperfect for this ship! And thanks to everyone for your reviews :) I'll go through them all and start writing more one shots later. But for now, enjoy a little moment between two cuties.

*Octavian*

She was beautiful, with her fiery red hair and bright green eyes.

What? No! I do NOT have feelings for that annoying mortal girl! Why would you even suggest such- Oh, this is pointless. Fine, maybe I find the Greek's Oracle a bit interesting, but there is no way- Stop it!

"Hey Octavian." Perseus Jackson grinned at me. "Missing your stuffed animal remains already?"

"Shut up, Son of Neptune. Just leave me alone."

"Aw," Percy pouted. "Is Octavian missing his girlfriend?"

"She's not my girlfriend!" I shrieked. "And if you dare to insinuate such a thing ever again, you shall be my next sacrifice."

"Hey Percy, hey Tav." Rachel, the Oracle, leapt over, smiling. "Percy, Annabeth is waiting for you at the Big House. You're going to go house hunting, remember?"

"Thanks Rae," Percy said. "By Tav," he grinned, wagging his eyebrows. I held up my knife as a reminder of my promise. He laughed, jogging back to the red building.

"So, Tav, I heard you're going back to Camp Jupiter soon."

"I will be leaving in two or three days, if I receive permission from Reyna."

"Oh. Okay." Rachel undid a small braid on the side of her head. "Well, if you ever want to...uh...talk about...stuff...here's my number." She then uncapped a Sharpie and wrote down a series of numbers on my arm. "You do know how to use a cell phone, right?"

I nodded, dumbstruck. Did she just give me her cell phone number? I cleared my throat. "Um, yeah. Yes, I do." Rachel grinned. "Or, if you'd prefer, here's a few drachmas for Iris Messaging. Rachel Elizabeth Dare."

"Rachel Elizabeth Dare," I repeated, savoring the way her name sounded on my tongue. I grinned. "I shall take you up on that offer, Miss Dare." Rachel grinned. "Great. So I was thinking-"

"Oh no. Are you feeling well? Should I take you to the infirmary?"

"Ha ha, very funny." Rachel retorted, sticking her tongue out.

"Oh, very mature. Apollo must be proud."

"Shut up," Rachel laughed, pushing me. I grinned. "What were you thinking about?"

"If you're a descendant of Apollo, does that mean you're good at archery?"

I groaned. "You have no idea how many times I've been asked that." Rachel's green eyes sparkled. "I don't?" She asked. I gulped. "Maybe you do. But the answer is no, I'm not good at archery."

"Haven't you ever tried?"

"Well...once." I admitted. "But I was terrible. So I decided to stick with auguring. It came easier to me."

"Maybe if you actually practiced, you'd get somewhere with it."

"Wanna go practice? Let's test your skills, mortal girl."

Rachel grinned, her bright green eyes lighting up. "If I win, you have to stay here another month and teach me how to read those stuffed animal entrails."

I laughed. "Alright. And if I win, you have to visit Camp Jupiter."

"Deal." Rachel grinned, holding out her hand. "Now shake on it." She ordered. "Yes ma'am." I smirked.

*screams* IN THE NAME OF EVERYTHING GREEK AND ROMAN *faints* Guys...I think...I think...I'm...in love. I mean, of course Octavian isn't the way he is in the books...but honestly, is he really that attractive a character with all that "KILL THE GREEKS" crap?

So, I was thinking (don't get worried, guys, I know it's pretty rare ;) jk)...could we reach 75 reviews by Christmas? I'll post a holidsy specoal for y'all! Just go back and review your favorite chapters, or maybe post your favorite pairs (no slash at all) that you would like too see in the Christmas special. There can be AT LEAST three couples, but let's keep the max to, say, five or six. No need to give me a heart attack.

~Luv ya!
