Connor and Travis hated consular meetings. They were boring and all that went on was other consular's complaining. Of course it didn't help that today the subject of such problems that needed to be fixed was the Hermes cabin.
Clarisse was mad at the pranking of the cabin, as were Selena, Pollux and a bunch of others. Connor tried the whole 'We have paid our time for the crime,' bit, but it didn't work. It seemed everyone was upset. Chiron was agitated because Travis had been late because apparently he had an appointment with some guys who wanted to give him a black eye, which they had succeeded on doing none the less.
Katie who would normally light like a fuse when it came to getting on Travis's case said nothing though. Nobody but Travis seemed to notice though, because they were all trying to think of the most suitable punishment for the cabin.
"We are in over our heads again," Connor whispered. Travis didn't respond. Connor followed his brother's line of sight to the quite for a first Katie. She seemed lost in thought.
"Katie, earth to Katie," Connor said. Katie snapped out of her daze and glared at him. The fourteen year old had a look that could kill.
"I was thinking you know," Katie said.
"'Bout what? Or is it impolite to pry?" he asked. She raised an eyebrow at him.
"I was thinking about bunnies," she lied. Really she was thinking about what Travis had said the week before when he snuck in her cabin. She was wondering if he really thought she was beautiful. She was also trying to remember which one of her sibling's trunks she had grabbed the shovel off of.
"Bunnies?" Connor questioned.
"Yes bunnies. I think that they are precious," Katie said, but she regretted it as soon as she did because a devious grin grew on Connor's face right after she said so.
