T1nyDanc3r: Oh, he is. He isn't the same boy we know, many years have passed. Although I'm not a fan of Thaluke, I have to agree with the cute thing with you :) Oh, there will be 91 more xD

10. Burn
Words: 385
Thalia always loved watching the fire burn. That wasn't different when a Sunday night she was sitting next to the small campfire.
"What are you thinking about?" the small blonde-haired girl asked Thalia who smiled.
"Who said that I was thinking?" the older girl asked mockingly.
"There is always a thought that crosses your mind, I don't think that it is even possible not to think of something," the small wiseacre girl explained enthusiastically and Thalia chuckled.
"I was thinking about the fire. It is beautiful, isn't it?" she asked.
"Yes, but it is very dangerous too," Annabeth pointed out seriously.
"It's silly, but I always feel myself safer close to the fire," Thalia mentioned lightly.
"It's not silly, fire makes light and heat," Annabeth stated simply.
"When you look at the fire what do you see, Annabeth?" Thalia suddenly asked and the little girl looked at her questioningly.
"Burning pieces of wood," Annabeth said as a matter of fact and the daughter of Zeus chuckled.
"I mean, what vision do you have? Don't you see through the fire?" she asked.
"That's impossible," the smart little girl said confusedly and Thalia laughed. Never ask things like this from a daughter of Athena. They don't understand anything which can't be explained by their knowledge.
"I see myself with you guys, just like we are now," Luke appeared with more woods and as he tossed them on the fire grew bigger and stronger. "What do you see, Thalia?" he asked mockingly, but Thalia was sure he was serious and he was really interested.
"The same," she nodded with a light smile on her face which grew wider as she saw the seven-year-old trying to understand their conversation.
"So, you meant theoretically not really, right?" she asked suddenly and the older girl nodded with a smile.
"You ask, what is the perfect life, or at least evening in my opinion? You are interested in who I would want to share?" Annabeth asked curiously and the two older demigods nodded.
"That's a very dumb question, of course I didn't understand it earlier," the blonde haired little girl stated and the two looked at her questioningly.
"You are silly guys, of course I would want to spend my evening with you," Annabeth stated with a big smile on her face.
