I spent the next two days just hanging out with Parker and spending some time with Apollo. This wasn't getting easy. Every time Apollo found out I'd spent my day with Parker he just got jealous and tell me how much he still didn't like him. The same thing happened with Parker. He would just glare when I talked about Apollo. On the bright side, I had been getting to know Parker better and we had a lot in common.

"So, how are you today?" Parker asked as we walked around camp. Parker seemed a lot happier lately. There was never a day I didn't see him smiling. I was always smiling around him. It was impossible not to be. He was all around a happy person, at least, when he wasn't in one of his moods. Occasionally he would be in a bad mood. He'd just not talk to anybody that day and glare at anybody. He'd sit in a corner and mutter about "things not working" and "power needing to be more powerful." I often wondered by what he meant. What things weren't working? And what power?

"Ah same old, same old. Are you excited for Christmas? I've loved Christmas ever since I was a little kid," I said smiling. Christmas was in two days, counting today. When I turned back to Parker he had a far off look in his eyes.

"Yeah. My dad and I always celebrated it together. Just him and I," he said absently. I raised an eyebrow and he sighed. "We'd always decorate the house, choose a Christmas tree and decorate it, and open up presents together on Christmas morning. I just... miss him," he said looking down at his shoes. I frowned and put my arm around his shoulders. He lifted his head and looked at me. We looked right at each other for a few minutes until Parker layed his head on my shoulder.

We sat on the ground like that for a few more moments until Parker lifted his head up and locked his eyes with mine. I felt like putty in his hands. His breathe smelled wonderful like mint and his eyes sparkled. He smiled and started leaning closer. My eyes grew wide as his lips were inches from mine. And that bad thing about it: I did nothing at all to move away. It's like I was stuck in place. I just couldn't move my head.

"Thalia!" I heard a yell in the distance just as Parker's lips were an inch from mine. I sighed in relief as Parker groaned and pulled away. I nodded at him and ran up the hill to where I found Annabeth and Violet. When I stood in front of them they just stood there wide eyed.

"What was that?" Annabeth yelled putting her hand on her hips. I looked down at the ground and blushed.

"Ummm you have a boyfriend!" Violet yelled and I bit my lip. I really didn't know what overcame me. I wanted more than anything to pull away from Parker but I just couldn't move. I mean, I don't feel that way about Parker... do I?

"I...I wanted to move but I couldn't! It's like I was stuck!" I blurted out. They both raised their eyebrows and then looked at each other. Violet's face lit up and she started jumping up and down.

"I think I know why," she told us once she had calmed down. We told her to continue. "Well you know how he's Aphrodite's child and she's the goddess of love? You also said that you were looking into his eyes. Have you ever felt like that before when you look into his eyes?" Violet asked slowly. When she said that sentence Annabeth gasped and started flailing her hands around. I guess she figured it out before I could.

"Why didn't I see it before?" she questioned herself under her breathe. I gave her a confused look but she just waved it off.

"Well you know how when you're the son or daughter of a god or goddess sometimes you have special powers? Like Percy can control water, you can control lightning sometimes, Nico can control the dead," she said rambling on and it finally clicked inside my head. Parker was Aphrodite's child. Aphrodite was the goddess of love. Parker's eyes. Oh gosh.

"His eyes control you, make you fall for him," I said under my breathe and Annabeth and Violet nodded. I shook my head, still confused by one point. "But, how come when I look away my feelings go away?" I asked and Violet sighed.

"I think it's only when you look him in the eyes, but I'm sure it can last longer than that," she said her eyebrows pulling together. Annabeth put her finger to her chin and started thinking.

"This isn't good," I said finally. Violet rolled her eyes at me.

"Of course it's not! I wasn't kidding when I told you he had a crush on you! He told me! Thalia, he's gonna make you fall for him! You can't let that happen," she exclaimed. I shook my head with a frown on my face. Parker knew I was in love with Apollo. Surly he wouldn't do that?

This just wasn't a good day.

Apollo and I were currently sitting against a rock looking up at the stars and moon. I sat in between his legs and he had his arms wrapped around me. I leaned back against him and looked up at the sky.

"It's beautiful," I whispered smiling. I heard Apollo chuckle and I looked back at him.

"Yeah it's okay. Not as beautiful as you though," he said smiling and I giggled slightly. I pecked him on the lips and looked back up at the sky. Moments like these I'll never forget.

I thought about telling Apollo about Parker's eyes but decided against it. I had a feeling it wouldn't end to well.

"Thalia?" Apollo asked quietly and I stiffened. Did he know about Parker? Did he know he almost kissed me? I nodded for him to go on. "Are you okay? You don't seem too happy," he said and I sighed in relief. I turned around in his arms and smiled at him.

"I'm fine now that you're here," I said and I leaned up to kiss him. I felt him smile as he tangled his hand in my hair. I wrapped my arms around his neck and continued kissing him. After a few more moments he pulled back and kissed my forehead. I layed my head against his and smiled.

"I love you," I said closing my eyes.

"I love you too," he said. I cocked my eyebrows. I had the strangest feeling I was being watched and not by Apollo.

I watched as she leaned up and kissed him. My fists clenched and I narrowed my eyes. I was standing in the woods watching Thalia and Apollo. I hated him. How could he kiss her? It was ruining my whole plan.

But, it felt as if my whole plan was falling apart because maybe just maybe I was really falling for her.

I'm a real big fan of yours but I'm quite the joke to you...


I'm so sorry for being away for so long! xP

I know you hate me but I have good reasons I was away for so long! First off, school is ending, in fact tomorrow is my last day, so I've been super busy! Don't worry though because summer is coming and I'll be able to write more! Second, I had writers block. I knew what I wanted to write about in this chapter but I just didn't know how to put it into words! I was sitting here with a page with a few sentences typed up when I suddenly just started writing and in no time I finished the chapter! So I'm sorry but I'm back now!

Well, today was my second to last day of school ): I'm happy that school is over but I'm sad because I won't see my friends that much! I'll be stuck in my room writing xP Just kidding! Do any of your friends write super long messages in your yearbooks? Because we got ours today, and before we only wrote our names but now we write SUPER long messages! Like I wrote a message so long I took up a whole page! And I mean the WHOLE page! There was no space left! Hahaha I just love my friend that much ;)

There's one question I have to ask: WHO WATCHES GREYS ANATOMY AND SAW THE SEASON FINALE? Dude, that finale was intense! The scene where Charles dies is so sad! And Dr. Bailey's breakdown! That was just so sad how she was jumping and screaming and crying. But then again, I would do the same thing. I seriously started screaming at my TV when Derek got shot. I almost started crying! I thought he was gonna die! DX McDreamy just can't die! Lol ;) I love how Meredith was screaming at him not to die and he told her to kiss him because he thought he was gonna die! I also loved when Cristina said "Shut up! I'm trying to save your guy and I would appreciate it if you would please go save my guy!" Lol ;) I thought Lexie was gonna get shot! I got so scared for a minute.

Anyways tell me if you watched it! I just recently started liking Greys Anatomy so yeahhh... :DDD

Oh my gosh guys I got a picture of what Parker would look like! http : / / www . twitpic . com / 1ted9f (without spaces) this picture is close to what Parker would look like. He would have darker hair though and his face wouldn't look like that that much. But, he'd have the same hair style and the same eyes. By the way, the picture is of Supermac18 ;)
