Okay I said after seven reviews I would update, but I just got writing and couldn't stop. But by the time I'm done with the next chapter there better be seven reviews or else I will get Clarisse to come after you with her electric spear.
Annabeth's POV
Oh gods, he was so cute when he was embarrassed. Man, I'm turning into one of the Aphrodite girls. If this is what love feels like then I realize why many children of Athena don't fall in love too often. It makes you feel vulnerable and dumb. But I have to say, I love the feeling.
"Uh . . . Yeah . . . I guess." Shoot. I hope I didn't sound uncertain.
"Ok . . ." Awkward . . .
"Can we play a prank?" I ask suddenly.
"On who?" Percy asked.
"Travis and Conner. See, I want to get back at them." I say. I looked at Percy, who was deep in thought.
"I think I have the perfect plan." He said slyly. He grabbed my hand and dragged me to his cabin.
Percy's POV
I took Annabeth to my cabin, where we planned the prank. Just like how the camp spread rumors about Annabeth and me, which in the end turned out to be true, the camp also spreads rumors about Travis and Katie Gardner, daughter of Demeter. Annabeth was going to forge a note from Katie and I was going to give it to Conner and vice versa for Katie.
It was going to say to meet in a certain place in the woods, a place where we had a trap set. A net would spring out and capture the two 'lovebirds' and there would be a video camera that would be taping all this, which we would show around camp. Now we don't know what we are going to do to Conner, maybe if we feel nice, we'll just let him go since we caused so much trouble for his brother.
We stayed in my cabin for a really long time, planning and . . . (ahem) talking. We realized how late it was when we heard the dinner bell and we walked hand in hand to dinner, ignoring all the gasps and squeals, mostly from the Aphrodite cabin. Finally we came to our table, where I reluctantly let Annabeth go to her table, but before she did, she reached up and pecked me on the lips. The campers, who hadn't guessed, now knew and everybody's eyes were trained on us, except for the few who didn't seem to care.
I was dazed but slowly went to my table, touching my lips. I quickly ate and went back to my cabin, where I quickly fell asleep.
Travis's POV
The next morning me and Conner led the Hermes cabin, very cautiously. We were there when Annabeth and Percy decided to prank us. We were very paranoid; it's fun to prank someone, not fun when they do it to you, especially when you know it's going to happen, just not when.
I looked at Katie; I sort of had a crush on her. But no one knew, at least I don't think anyone knew, but the camp still thinks we're destined to be together.
After breakfast, I saw Percy come up to me, I got so nervous, but I had to keep myself from running away. They don't know that we were videotaping them and knew of their prank.
"Hey, why so jumpy?" He asked. It was almost like he was mocking me. "I have to go soon, but I ran into Katie and she told me to deliver this note to you." He handed me the paper and I held it like it was a bomb. "What? It's not a bomb?" He asked laughing.
"Why'd Katie ask you to deliver it?" I asked, hoping to trip him.
"Because she knows I'm one of your good friends." He said flawlessly. Yeah a friend planning to kill me.
"Then how come you never let me deliver any of your notes to Annabeth?" This question will for sure make him falter.
"Two reasons, one you're not good reasons with Annabeth, and second you're a child of Hermes, most likely I'd give it to you and you'd give it to the Aphrodite cabin who would torture me endlessly about it." That is so true.
"So true." I laughed.
"Well, I have to go; Annabeth's waiting for me at the beach. Bye!" He left, leaving me with the note. He had been surprisingly nice for someone out to prank me. I slowly unfolded the note, hoping there were no explosives attached to it. The note was really from Katie!
Hey Travis, I really need to tell you something. Meet me in the woods, next to the creek after breakfast.
Love, Katie
Ugh! That means I have to go now! Percy couldn't have given me the note earlier; if he had I might have been able to do something with my hair or my clothes. After a lot of complaining I set off into the woods, looking for Katie. I saw her looking about as confused as I was.
"Hey, Katie!" I yelled as I tripped over a tree root, flat on my face. Smooth bro, I just fell down in front of the girl I like. She ran over and helped me up.
"So what did you want to tell me?" I asked her. She looked at me confused.
"I got a note saying you wanted to talk to me about something."
"What?" I asked confused, then a couple seconds later, it clicked. But it was a couple seconds too late; we were snatched up in a net of rope, hanging from a tree.
REVIEW! ;)
