I swear I'm hiding!
When I got into Hermes cabin I saw Travis and he looked up because he must of heard me come in. "So…How was that for a first day?" He asked and laughed a little at the end.
I looked at him like I just heard the world is ending, "You would not believe how it was." I said putting a little emphasis on 'believe'.
He looked back down doing something where my stuff was and asked, "Does that mean it was good or bad?"
"Both." I said as I walked to where he was and I saw what he was doing. He was setting up my stuff. "You didn't have to do that." I said.
"I didn't have to, but I did. You need to go to sleep." He said and he got away from my stuff. Until then I hadn't noticed how tired I was, I noticed when I fell onto my sleeping bag.
I didn't have a dream that night which was unusual. When I woke up I looked in my pants for the schedule then at my phone, it was seven a.m. and breakfast was at eight so I decided I would take a shower, brush my hair, and change my clothes, I'll brush my teeth after breakfast. So I grabbed my clothes and comb and went to take a shower.
When I was done with all that I went back to Hermes cabin and saw everyone cleaning like crazy. I walked up to Connor Stoll and asked, "What is everyone doing?"
He looked at me and said, "Cabin clean up. After breakfast its cabin inspection, so we have to clean now."
"Sorry I made someone else have to clean my mess." I said.
"Oh no problem you didn't even have a mess, but you are a wild sleeper."
"I know." I said and left to see how Thalia was doing.
As I approached the magnificent building that was cabin one, I noticed something inside, it was moving in a hurry. I ran up to the door, knocked, and waited. I could hear Thalia tripping over a lot of things, but when she opened the door she I could tell she was out of breath. "Hi" she said.
"Hi. Do you need help?" I asked.
"Um" she took a deep breath, "Ya. Sure."
And she moved aside to let me in I saw the inside (how could I not). It was like a temple with an irregular mosaic ceiling and several bronze braziers and a statue of Zeus in traditional Greek clothes was centered in the room with beds on both sides. You could hardly see the floor with all the…trash? "Is that trash?" I asked.
"I'm not sure." She said a little worried.
"Well we should start cleaning." I said and looked at her.
She looked at me and said, "We? But don't you have to clean your cabin?"
I said, "I'm in Hermes cabin, it doesn't take long to clean." I guess she understood because after that we started to clean. And within minuets we were done. She went to get her clothes to go take a shower and on her way out of the cabin I asked, "A lot faster with two people isn't it?"
At the door she stopped and turned around saying, "You're unusually nice for how you look"
I smiled and said, "It's not the looks that makes personality, it is what is inside." She smiled and walked away. As for me I sat in front of Zeus's statue for a while wondering what to do. But I waited to long and Thalia was already back at the door. I didn't know what to do should I stay where I was, wait what if it wasn't Thalia? What if it was Chiron checking up on Thalia to? So I did the only thing I could think of, I ran into the boys' side and ducked under one of the bunk beds. And that was a smart thing to do considering I heard something like clapping both halves of a coconut together, or a horse walking. (A/N: 'clapping both halves of a coconut together' is a Monty Python and the Holy Grail reference) And I saw the bottom half of Chiron's 'legs'.
"Thalia…you said he was acting…unusual? How?" He asked.
"Well…unusual for anyone I've ever met." She said.
'What had she told him?' I thought.
"Thalia I need to know everything about him and what he's done since you first saw him." I could feel that her muscles were getting tenser making her hot again.
She swallowed hard and told him everything. Everything very vividly. After about ten minuets she had finally finished.
A few times after that I could hear Chiron try to talk but it seamed he didn't know what to say, then finally said, "It does seam odd, but I have lived long and he only matches some of the heroes I have ever known…I will talk to him after breakfast." And I guess he left, but I still had to wait for Thalia to leave.
"You can come out now." She said.
And I did, asking, "When did you notice?" I sat on an old very dusty bottom bunk.
"I heard you sigh I was talking about us at dinner." She said looking in her bags for something.
"Do you think he heard me?" I asked looking through the window.
"No. He was to busy listening to me." And she pulled out her wallet. "Found you, you little monster." She said and I hoped she was kidding about the 'monster' part.
"So…should we go get some food?" And right before she could answer we heard the breakfast horn. "Well, that answers that." And we went to the dinning pavilion.
Me: Thalia…you described that a little too vividly.
Thalia: Really? I don't think I did.
Me: Thalia…you made me want to climb into the story, make you stop, and kill you.
Thalia: 0.0
