I woke up in a state of confusion. My thoughts were somewhat of Carey, but mainly Annabeth.

I wasn't sure about Carey. Was she alright? Maybe I misjudged her?

Well, this was weird. I rubbed my head and remembered the potion. Did it work? Did I... No, I still loved Annabeth. That was for sure. But Carey...

"Gah!" I said as a suddenly pain throbbed in my head. I put my hands on my head.

The thoughts of Carey disappeared somewhat. I couldn't help but wonder if the love potion was permanent?

"Alright," Leo burst through the door, followed by Jason, Clarisse, Nico, and Piper. They all had ropes, and Leo held a key. "Mission six-seven-eight go!"

They all dashed at me. Clarisse grabbed me under my arms, and picked me up, bringing me up the ladder to the band room, and then charged towards a sound booth. Piper and Jason came in next. Jason tied my right arm to the right wall, and Piper tied my left arm to the left wall, with barely any moving around room.

Nico ran in with a light, and shined it in my face, and then Clarisse tied my feet to the floor.

Leo went outside to the sound booth's array of nobs and notches and switched a few.

Everybody exited the room but Jason and Piper.

"You're being recorded." Jason said.

"Ok..." I say.

Jason clears his throat. "Now we take an oath. Repeat after me. I will tell the whole truth."

"I will tell the whole truth." I repeat.

"Nothing but the truth."

"Nothing but the truth."

"I will not tell a lie, and I will answer every question truthfully or be doomed."

"I will not tell a lie, and I will answer every question truthfully or be doomed."

"I swear it on the River Styx," Jason finished.

"I swear it on the River Styx." I repeat.

"Do you remember what happened last night?" Piper got straight to the point.

"Yes... Yes..." It was a little fuzzy. "Although it is a little fuzzy."

"What do you remember?" Piper asked. They began to pace in front of me, which made me uncomfortable.

"I remember that... I woke up, I don't know what time. My head was throbbing... It was like I was confused. I was dizzy and nauseous. And Annabeth was talking... And then she said something about love potion... And laid her head on my chest... And cried... For a long time..." I confess. No use in lying.

"Are you hurting?" Piper asked. "Physically?"

"My head... And I'm really tired..." I reply.

"Are you hurting... Mentally?" Piper asked.

I knit my eyebrows. "I'm not sure..."

"What do you mean?" Jason asked.

"It's exactly what I mean. I don't know. I'm not sure. That's the torture of it all." I shrug. "It's a bad... It's hard to explain."

"Do you have decision?" Piper asked.

"No." I say darkly.

Seeing I didn't want to talk about it, she nodded and went on.

"How do you feel about Annabeth?" Piper asked.

"Same as always. She's the most amazing, beautiful girl ever. I wish I could be with her forever. She's brave, she's... Really hot?" I didn't know how to put love. "Every time I think about her, I smile. And that's a lot."

"Awww..." Piper put her hand over her heart. "That was soooo sweet!"

"Piper, focus!" Jason snapped his finger. "Your Aphrodite is showing!"

"But they're sooo sweet! He's sooo adorable! Jason, why can't you be like that?" Piper crossed her arms.

"Ok, so you want to stuff a love potion in me? Have at it!" Jason seemed aggravated. Was he jealous that I loved Annabeth so much I could fight a love potion? Everybody here knew now, my love was so strong I could fight a love potion.

"Well... The majority of the temptation is done now. Whatever affect it has on you now is all it will have- it's not permanent. It'll only last a few more days. I think her goal was to bring you in and make a move so when it wore off you'd stay with her." Piper said. "Still a danger though. If you wouldn't mine, I think we need to keep you locked up in here until it wears off."

"Anything for Annabeth." I say.

Piper look awed. Out the window, I saw Leo wrinkle his nose and his lips said, "You nasty."

Jason rolled his eyes at Piper's reaction, but still looked pretty happy for Annabeth. Then Jason straightened and smirked. "One last question," he said. "You need to be 100% honest. This means physically and emotionally. Ok?" Jason said.

"Ok." I reply, me getting nervous at the way he carried himself like he knew the next second Piper wouldn't be awed. He was so serious right now, pacing with his hands folded behind his back. As if he was from an old British crime movie, and he was a lawyer trying to get the truth out of a bucket head scumbag who did something wrong. I had been referred to as a scumbag for breaking rules at school, or not doing my homework, but this was serious stuff right here. I could tell by his demeanor.

"Do you feel... Different?" Jason said.

"Yes," I say. "I'm in pain... And..." I couldn't hide it. My conscious was yelling at me to lie. But if I did lie I would die... Die without them knowing I lied... But I couldn't lie, they needed to know the truth, Annabeth needed to know the truth... I needed to accept the truth. The love potion was working. "I think I like Carey."

Cliffhanger.

Ha. Ha. Ha. HA.

Yeah yeah yeah same old same old I'm having fun writing this. I love these cliffhangers! How long should I keep you guys waiting...

I'm thinking maybe... A day? A few hours? Hahahahahaha I love cliffhangers, you guys always get really ticked off! And desperate. And then some people I'd just updated 5 minutes ago are like UPDAAATEEE and I literally had just published the part that they commented on! Guys, that feeling is so great. I'm close to 26k reads! You don't know how awesome that is!!

I never thought this book would get that many hits, but it did. I started off a really small wattpader and then... Suddenly my books got thousands of reads. One I recently took down for editing had 16k reads. But this book has 25k now, and I'm so happy about it. I'm writing a book now for the 2016 wattys. The feeling reading you guys comments is unreal, and I never thought I'd be here, thanking you guys for thousands of reads.

Thank you all for commenting, favoriting, and following me. It for real means a lot.
