Chapter 3: Amber

I took off my burt clothes and my black crystal necklace and stepped into the shower. It was nice. I don't know why, but I washed my face with the water and my arms. I expected my burns to hurt me but, they didn't. I examined them to find that they healed. I screamed. I heard the bathroom door slam open.
"What happened?" I heard Leo yell as he threw back the shower curtain, saw me and clapped his hand over his eyes.
"Leo" I groaned "I'm in the shower!" I turned off the water, took the towel Will gave me and wrapped it around my naked body. "You can look now."
"What happened?" He repeated as he uncovered his eyes. I showed him my arms and pointed to my face.
"I'm healed." I said and he stood in awe and pointed to the top of my head. There was a glowing gold trident over my head, not to mention the dove and owl and pink, gray, gold, and yellow aura.
"Will!" Leo called "Amber has been claimed." Will came in with his hand over his eyes, unlike Leo.
"You can look." Leo said, rollong his eyes. Will looked at the trident.
"All hail Amber Swenson, daughter of Poseidon, blessed by Athena and Aphrodite. Did she heal?" he asked, wanting to help.
"Yea" I showed him my arms. He nodded in approval and they left me to finish my shower.

I finished my shower I changed into my new Camp Half-Blood T-shirt and I decided to wear the jeans since it was a little chilly. I discovered that my necklace wasn't where I put it. I went outside into the infirnary to find Leo playing with my necklace.
"Leo?" I asked
"Oh, sorry." He said and looked down at my necklace in his hands. "I upgraded your necklace. When you push the miniscule button on the bottom tip of the crystal, it will turn you invisible. It's an 'I'm sorry' gift from me." He smiled and got up to put it on me. "It looks beautiful on you." He whispered into my ear from behind. I touched the necklace.
"You're single, right?" I asked
"Yeah, why?" He asked in a flirty way and he wiggled his eyebrows at me
"I know who might want to be the next Mrs. Leo Valdez." I flirted back and smirked
"And who might that me?" He asked
"You'll see." I said and went outside to eat dinner, leaving Leo to chase me. He was quick and he caught me at the beach. He threw me onto the floor and tickled me.
"Who is it?" he pressured and I giggled
"I'll never tell!" I shouted between giggles. "Never!"
"Are you sure? Are you sure you won't tell me?" He said, from on top of me tickling me as I rolled around in the surprisingly hot sand. "Who is it?" he said again through gritted teeth. I slapped him and got up and ran to the dining hall and he almost caught me so I ran back to the beach and we both tripped and fell into the sand. He hovered above me.
"Please? Tell me." He whispered
"It's me you idiot." I grabbed his face and pulled him toward me. I planted my lips on his. I never believed the fireworks flying term but now I understood it. We seperated. I pushed his hair back, out of his face and he pushed mine out of my face. He leaned back down and kissed me back. The bells rang signaling the start of dinner.
"We'd better get going." Leo said
"Or we could just stay here. Or not. I'm hungry." I answered Leo laughed, getting up and helped me. We brushed of the sand on our clothes. "Let's go." He took my hand and led me to the dining hall. We sat at a table with 8 other people there, including Will and Nico. I sat next to Leo and he put his arm around me.
"So, is this the girlfriend you hypnotized into dating your idiot ass?" A boy with sea-green eyes and short black hair asked, jokingly.
"NO! She's the one who kissed my ass!" Leo shouted at him
"Oh, so you kissed his ass?" the boy asked me
"No. And Leo?" I asked sweetly
"Yea, Sweet Lips?" he asked, seemingly hypotized.
"You don't kiss and tell!" I said I lightly hit his cheek
"Oooooh" everyone at the table said. And Leo and I rolled our eyes.
"Anyway, this is Amber." Leo said
"Hi!" I said and Leo continued
"And this is everyone." A blonde girl rolled her gray eyes.
"What Leo means to says is," She began "I'm Annabeth, Daughter of Athena, my mom blessed you." A girl with mahogany colored hair and multi-colored eyes sorta raised her hand.
"I'm Piper McLean, Daughter of Aphrodite, so did mine. You HAVE to let me help pick out your new clothes! Please?" she asked eagerly. I nodded and she squealed.
"Sheesh, Piper," a blonde boy with piercing blue eyes said "You're showing your Aphrodite self. I'm Jason, Piper's boyfriend, Son of Jupiter, Roman version of Zeus."
"I'm Hazel Levesque, Daughter of Pluto, Roman version of Hades." An African girl with frizzy brown hair said. A chinese boy went next.
"I'm Frank Zhang , Son of Mars, Roman version of Ares. I'm also dating Hazel." He said the last part sheepishly. He shyly put his arm around Hazel as she nuzzled him.
"Well it's about time!" Will said "You know me, Will, son of Apollo, dating Nico."
"Nico, son of Hades, dating Will..." the gothic emo boy said. The black haired boy went last.
"I am Persassy! Son of Poseidon!" He said cheerfully. "Engaged to Nice Ass over here." He motioned to Annabeth and she slapped him
"Percy!" She shrieked
"What!? You have a nice ass!" He repeated He looked at me. "Who's your godly parent and what did Leo do to have you date him?"
"Daughter of Poseidon, your half-sister and Leo did nothing except for the fact that he is so funny and charming." I said and kissed Leo's cheek.
"Soooo... You're my sister? And you think Leo is charming?" I nodded "Something is wrong with you, sis." I shot a look at my half-brother "Kidding! You two are very lucky!" The girls squealed
"Thanks. So how do the plates and cups work?" I asked
"Think of a drink and a meal you want." Percy said
"Oh" I said. I thought of a cheeseburger and hot chocolate. It appeared. I started eating. I looked at Leo and he took a napkin to wipe some ketchup from my face. I wiped some from his. I lightly kissed his lips and he rested his forhead on mine. Jason threw a piece of cucumber at us.
"Asshole!" Leo called at him. He lookd back at me. And we just sat there looking into eachother eyes. I put my arms around his neck and kissed him softly.
"Hello?" Percy said "We are trying to eat here, lovebirds!" I went back to my burger.
When we all finished eating I sat back into Leo's warm hold. I sipped some of my Hot Chocolate.
"Sooooo, do you guys like camp?" I asked
"Yea." everyone said. I nodded.
"C'mon, let's go to the campfire." Leo said and we left. We sat in the very last row so no one can see us. I sat down next to Leo and absolutely melted into his love for me.
