Ella POV

I looked at Malcolm, wondering he was real.

"Can't" I said. I really wanted to. Being with Malcolm before sunrise? Hades yeah! But… I needed to help Chiron…

"Have to help Chiron" I said. Malcolm's face fell.

"Oh," he said. He ran a hand through his hair.

"Sorry" I whispered. Malcolm shrugged.

"Stay here, I'm going to change" I said. He nodded and sat on my bed. I looked over to Pollux and smiled. He was dead-asleep. Not literally dead, of course. I went to get clothes and shoes. I went into the bathroom. When I realized the clothes I mentally slapped myself

Clothes from Aphrodite.

I shuddered.

I looked at the clothes. An aqua shirt and a white shell necklace, gladiator sandals, and white shorts. When I put them on, I looked in the mirror. I didn't look bad. I had put my hair back into a princess style. You know; the hair from the front and put it back in a pin. My eyes were intense purple. I exited the bathroom feeling embarrassed. What if Malcolm thought I was a girly now? He looked at me and smiled. I searched for his eyes. I finally found them. I locked eyes with him.

How on Gaia (LOL, I say that a lot …You know…Earth=Gaia…Lol Nvm) was he still single?

Right now, he was wearing this green shirt and cargo shorts that made him look like a god. And his eyes, were intense and …Pleading? What? Did he really have to tell me something? I shrugged it off. Malcolm cleared his throat.

"I better…go" he said gesturing to the door. I nodded and he went out the door quickly. My eyes darted across the room. Pollux was waking up.

Malcolm POV

I groaned after I went out the door. I really wanted to tell Ella I liked her. When I entered my cabin everyone was asleep. I put my back against the wall and slide down slowly. I groaned again. When could I tell her? I got back up and got my knife. I headed to the arena to see Luna already slashing dummies to their doom. I smiled and stood behind her until she noticed me. She finally looked at me,

"Get away from me – oh. Hi Malcolm" she said sniffling. Mascara ran down her face.

"Gods, what's wrong Luna?"

"Drew said" she sniffled "she was going" she sniffled again "to make me suffer" I looked at her searching her eyes to see if she was telling the truth.

"Why?" I said finally.

"Because I slapped her!" she said looking at the floor.

"She can't do that"

"Yes…she can take away Andy from me! She can charmspeak him to move and never come back!" I gave her a hug "Let me know how it goes or I beat Drew personally all right?" she nodded and smiled

She turned her back on me to train. I covered a dummy on the other side.

Drew POV

I grinned

"I'm in the business of misery,
Let's take it from the top.
She's got a body like an hourglass it's ticking like a clock.
It's a matter of time before we all run out,
When I thought he was mine she caught him by the mouth.

I waited eight long months,
She finally set him free.
I told him I couldn't lie he was the only one for me.
Two weeks and we caught on fire,
She's got it out for me,
But I wear the biggest smile.

Whoa, I never meant to brag
But I got him where I want him now.
Whoa, it was never my intention to brag
Just steal it all away from you now.
But God does it feel so good,
Cause I got him where I want him now.
And if you could then you know you would.
Cause God it just feels so,
It just feels so good.

Second chances they don't ever matter, people never change.
once a whore you're nothing more, I'm sorry, that'll never change.
And about forgiveness, we're both supposed to have exchanged.
I'm sorry honey, but I'm passin' up, now look this way.
Well there's a million other girls who do it just like you.
Looking as innocent as possible to get to who,
They want and what they like.
It's easy if you do it right.
Well I refuse, I refuse, I refuse!

Whoa, I never meant to brag
But I got him where I want him now.
Whoa, it was never my intention to brag
Just steal it all away from you now.
But God does it feel so good,
Cause I got him where I want him right now.
And if you could then you know you would.
Cause God it just feels so,
It just feels so good.

I watched his wildest dreams come true
Not one of them involving you
Just watch my wildest dreams come true
Not one of them involving.

Whoa, I never meant to brag,
But I got him where I want him now.

Whoa, I never meant to brag
But I got him where I want him now.
Whoa, it was never my intention to brag
just steal it all away from you now.
But God does it feel so good,
Cause I got what I wanted now
And if you could then you know you would.
Cause God it just feels so,
It just feels so good." I sang along. I had reasons to get back at Luna. 1st: No Aphrodite kid could really fall in love without dumping them and using them. 2nd: she smacked me. 3rd: she dissed my outfit and makeup! And that my darlings; deserves consequences. I sat in the top bunk in my cabin. Suddenly, my mother popped in, fuming.

"Mom, pleasure seeing you here" I said smiling innocently. "You look stunning as always"

"Save it" she growled. She jabbed a finger at me "you are not going to ruin my son's love life" she hissed through her perfect teeth. "Are we understanding?" I gulped. "Yes Mother"

"Or I will personally ruin yours" and just like that she popped up into the air, leaving behind the faint smell of Gucci perfume. She left me on my bed and I gaped, leaving me to cry.

My mother had practically just said she had disowned me.

Trust me, it's not fun

Leo POV

I sat on the work bench, talking to Nyssa. Somehow the topic and brought to our parents.

"So about your mom Leo?" she asked. I hadn't told them what had happened. I looked away, fighting the bitter tears and the resisting going to Tartarus to kill Gaia personally. I shook my head violently. Nyssa shrugged and moved on

"Moving on, so Leo, you never told me how'd fighting Gaia go?"

She defiantly not making this easy.

"…"

She shrugged at when to talk to Jake.
