I looked around and all the campers were staring at me. I glanced at Annabeth who smirked and then she looked away quickly.
"Well Mr. Johnson?"
I will not lie I totally panicked and the only thing I was able to say was, "Um…I…don't…she…confused…Silena."
Mr. D raised and eyebrow. He looked fat, I mean fatter than usual, his belly hung and his cheeks looked plump. I probably would have laughed but I was too embarrassed, and then I would have been in more trouble.
"Ah…so Silena, he meant to ask you?"
"No sir, he meant to ask some one in particular…I guess he is too modest to ask her." She thought for a second and said, "It is best that we let Percy figure it out by himself."
"So, you don't also don't know who I am supposed to ask?" I questioned.
"Yeah…I was-we were just trying to encourage you, but no, you had to make a big scene and all." I looked at Mr. D and he gave me a stare that warned me to shut my mouth or…else.
After that night I kept on wondering what Silena meant, I mean I was confused. Two nights later as I was thinking on my bed I started to make a list of my problems.
I still have not figured out what Silena meant.
The dance was two days away and I have not asked anyone…yet.
Annabeth still is mad at me
Clarisse wants to beat me up, again
Repeat 1-4 again
Then I fell asleep. On Thursday at breakfast, Chiron announced that if we did not have something to wear the camp store would sell stuff from Olympus. Some people were going to wear costumes others were just going to wear a suit and stuff like that. Once breakfast was done, most of the campers went to get their drachmas and buy their attire at the store.
The Ares cabin did not go, and some other girls from the Athena cabin. I was heading toward the store when out of the corner of my eye I saw Annabeth sitting beneath Thalia's pine tree. I made a split decision and headed at her direction. I guess she saw me because she turned and opened up her book.
"Shouldn't you be at the store?" I asked.
"No, I don't feel like…shopping. And you shouldn't you be with Silena, your girlfriend?"
"What! No, she is not my girlfriend! And if I were, you would see me incognito. By the way Annabeth…what is wrong with you? You're not yourself lately."
"You're not yourself lately," she mimicked. "I don't know what you mean Percy, I am being myself."
"Oh no you're not you scowl, roll your eyes and stick your tongue out at me! What did I do?!"
"Stop, being such a drama queen and I haven't ignored you! Sure I might have scowled and rolled my eyes at you for being such an idiot. I haven't done anything wrong!"
"Yeah…sure you're an angel."
"Oh, so you don't believe me?"
"Um…no, not at all."
She gasped. "Fine," she stood up and said "Good luck finding a date!"
"Fine!"
"Fine!" she yelled. By the way, she walked to her cabin; I could tell she was furious. In addition, I had to find a friend in the meantime. I went to the camp store and looked at the suits. In a costume, I would look ridiculous and with a suit…well, at least I would look better in it. I looked for my size, which I will not say because you will laugh. However, I am not fat I am in good shape, I guess. Oh, my gods I sound like the Aphrodite cabin, I better shut up! I looked around but none of the suits seemed right. I gave up until again something caught my eye. I picked it up right away and guess what? It was my size! I had finally found the right suit. I picked a tie that matched it and a with dress shirt. After making sure that everything looked right, I paid the harpy, and surprisingly it was rather cheap.
