Caitlyn P.O.V

I tried to delay the trip to the entrance of the camp as much as possible. I hated meeting new people, I was incredibly shy. I walked up the hill, pretending to trip multiple times, until I could delay it no more. I looked over the beautiful camp, and caught my breath. The whole camp was waiting for me and Nico. This was new to me; no one had ever wanted to see me, to spend time with me. Even when I lived on Oahu, the Friendly Isle, they had all hated me. I was cursed to be a Haole (foreigner) forever. I almost smiled at them, but caught myself; I couldn't get too attached to them. We continued walking until Nico realized I was shaking with fear, he grabbed my hand, and I didn't let go for the rest of the way to camp.

The camp stared at me until an old man in a wheel chair waded through the crowd. He looked at me and smiled. It was a warm welcoming smile, and I gave a tiny one back. I looked for Nico, but he was gone. Man, I actually thought I might have had a friend; he was just like all the others.

Nico P.O.V

"I'm such an idiot."I said to Percy. "I grabbed her hand, I actually grabbed it." I sighed. She probably never wanted to see me again. She probably thought that I was some weird pervert or something. "Nah, don't worry so much. She didn't pull away did she?" He asked nonchalantly. "I guess not…" I said with a frown. I was really upset; I had probably scared her off. No one wanted to hang out with the pale, depressed boy anyways. After Chiron came up to her, I decided to run off to talk to Percy. I needed advice and I doubt Dionysus wants to talk about girl problems with me. "So, is she really cute?" asked Percy with a grin. "I only thought that I was gone for three days? Unless you and Annabeth broke up that soon?" I asked devilishly. "Sorry about that, Annabeth is the only one for me." Percy blushed furiously.

I planned to ask Chiron about hat weird power of hers; I had never seen anything like that before. I was really excited to sit with her at dinner, because the Hermes cabin and table was so full they couldn't hold any unclaimed demigods. The new cabin to hold any unclaimed demigods just depended on the least crowded cabin.
