He's Gone Away…

Chapter 2

It's Life

(A couple days later)

Aphrodite's POV

Annabeth NEEDS help. I'm so glad Athena is "borrowing" Thalia's services for a time. She will be staying until Percy gets back or Annabeth (as Athena says) "get's over it." I know Annabeth will not, but Athena doesn't know that; for her being so wise, sometimes she can't see what's in front of her. Ahhh… true love!

Thalia needs to be sensitive enough to know Annabeth's needs (Percy!). I think I will help her with that… And I may use Piper

No POV

Little did Thalia know, Aphrodite was already putting her plan into action.

Thalia's POV

Annabeth needs to talk to someone about her feelings. She could talk to me… Wait! When did I start caring about lovey-dovey things? OMGs; I'm turning into an Aphrodite chick! Think, punk-rock, black, skulls, the moon. I love the moon, and hunting… Annabeth really needs help... How can I help her... Maybe Athena? No, to logical. Aphrodite, maybe but Annabeth would not be receptive to her help, to bad. Aphrodite is amazing! Wait! Why am I thinking this? Oh gods!

Annabeth "Hay Thals!"

Thalia jumped a mile-high. "gods, Annabeth, don't scare me like that!"

"Thalia, what do you wanna do today?"

"I don't know, what do you want to do?"

"Do you want to train?"

"Sure, why not."

(A couple hours later)

"Lunch! I'm SO hungry."

"Well, you didn't eat breakfast Annabeth"

"Ya, I did."

"BUT, then you puked and that got rid of your breakfast."

"Oh… I still hungry now! … I think I want bacon, and tomato, and chicken… ooh, I REALLY want ice cream!"

"Annabeth, we aren't even there yet! You can't decide what you want until we see your options."

When they got to the dining pavilion, Annabeth turned green and ran to the nearest bathroom. Thalia followed quickly.

"Annabeth, are you sick? Ewww! That is so gross."

"Well it is throw-up! Got a problem with that."

"Annabeth, don't snap at me! I did nothing wrong! How come you threw-up?"

"I smelled something horrible, I think it was pizza"

"Pizza is not horrible!"

"Well it smelled that way!"

"O.k. do you want to go to your cabin?"

"NO! I'm hungry"

"You just threw up!"

"But I'm hungry!"

"FINE!"

"Can you go get me something?"

"Why?"

"Because the pizza smells horrible"

"O.k. what do you want?"

"What are my options?"

"I don't know!"

"Can you go find out?"

"Fine"

After a dinner of BLT, chicken and ice cream, they went to the campfire. And then to bed.
