The Half-Blood Fall Fiesta!! Arriba!!(Chapter Two)

Silena dragged me to my cabin and I lead her inside. I had never had a girl in my cabin before, only Annabeth but she didn't count we were only friends. "Listen…have you thought about who you're going to take to the Fall Dance?"

"Um, not really," I said quickly.

"Well you should."

"Why?" She thought for a second. "I guess because you'll be dateless if you don't." The whole time I had, had my eyes glued on the floor, but once Silena said those words I looked at her. That was a big mistake. She caught my gaze and made eye contact.

"I…I'm not worried about being dateless, as a matter a fact I'm not even going to go."

"Oh must you have to! I know who to hook you up with!" So that's what it was! Silena was trying to hook me up, not get me hooked up with her. On second thought she could be lying.

"With….?"

"Oh, don't act stupid Seaweed Brain-that is what they call you, right?"

"Only Annabeth does."

"Good, then back to your question, you know who I mean! All you got to do is find courage! Now if you'll excuse me I have to go to talk to Janine!"

She looked back at me, smiled and skipped toward the Athena cabin, leaving me confused like always. Whew now that that's settled I can think peacefully.

The next morning nobody paid attention to any of the classes except me and a few other kids. I saw Annabeth rotating from various activities but she always had this sad expression on her pretty face. Wait a second; did I just call her pretty?

Yes you did. I take it back.

The rest of the day was a drag. Dinner was okay, but Silena still kept making faces at me. I was doing fine until all the Aphrodite campers turned to face me and made kissing lips and some batted their eyes. "That's it!" I shouted. "Stop it! I've had enough!"

"Sit down, Peter Johnson!" Mr. D yelled.

"I will not unless the Aphrodite cabin stops and tells me what is going on!"

Mr. D raised his eyebrow and nodded at the Aphrodite table. "Sir," it was Silena. "All we were doing was trying to encourage Percy to ask someone to the dance."

Mr. D turned to me and said "satisfied." Before I could respond, Dionysus asked the Aphrodite "Who does Peter want to ask to the dance?"

"He's in denial," she said. "Right Percy?"

"Um…not really."

"Who, Peter?"
