Chapter 12: Asking girls out isn't as easy as it seems
Castor's POV
Our week at both camps was the best week of our lives. Though, even that couldn't make me feel any less anxious. When we were at CHB, Leo asked Calypso out and he came back smiling. Luke liked Thalia and he asked her out, so we let him in on the plan. Travis and Nico too, since he asked Katie and Reyna out. So they settled their part of the promise. Except, the problem was they did it. The rest of us, haven't... yet.
We were training while the girls had classes with Aphrodite when Leo said "Have you guys ask them out yet?" We all shook our heads.
"C'mon guys, Luke and Travis did it. It's not that hard."
"Easy when you didn't get rejected," I replied, the other guys nodded.
He sighed, "Look, how about you ask Julia out." My eyes widened, everyone grinned. They all know I have a big crush on her.
"C'mon, it won't be the end of the world. Besides, Pipes heard from her mum that she likes you too." Jason said.
"Says the guys who has a crush on her." Percy teased.
"Ok, by the end of the week?" Chris said. We all agreed, we had to do this if we wanted the plan to work. And that's when the girls came in.
Chris's POV
The girls are here,yay. Note the sarcasm. "Hey, you guys want come with us for lunch?" Adriana asked.
"Yeah sure," Percy says. Leo shoots me a smirk and tips his head in the direction of Clarisse. Ever since I told the guys, they've teased me non-stop.
Ok, guys, this is your chance to do it! Leo transmits.
Fine, who thinks they can settle it today? Mark asked. Several of us reply that we could while the rest remain unsure.
Ok, anyone who can do it does it and we'll slowly plan the rest. Deal? Malcolm sums up.
~Time skip~
After lunch, I stood up and asked Clarisse if I could talk to her. Go, bro! Will transmitted.
Congrat me when I get the girl. I said and followed her. We walked through the park and sat on the bench.
"So, you wanted to talk to me?" She seemed nervous, guess I'm not alone.
"Yeah,um....." I trailed off, could I really do this?
"Yeah?" Well, here it goes.
"Iwaswonderingifyou wannabemydatetotheceremony?" I asked her quickly. She looked at me quizzically. "I kinda like you and was wondering if you wanna be my date to the ceremony?" I asked slower this time.
She smiled and said, "Sure." but her eyes were sparkling like stars. She's so cute. We went back hand-in-hand, smiling all the way back.
Malcolm's POV
"C'mon guys, time to go to class. You know how mad Ares gets when we're late." Adri beckons. The last time Ares got and, he made us do 3 rounds around Olympus and trust me it isn't fun. We all walked quickly to the arena to see Chris and Clarisse already waiting there. They were grinning.
You did it? We asked.
You bet I did! Asked her and she said yes. Chris replied.
"You go Chris. Percy, Jase, Frank and most of the rest did it too!" Leo said.
"Who's left?" He asked. Me, Aaron, Mark,Will and Castor raised our hands.
"But I thought I do it during break." I added quickly.
"You'll be fine. My sis likes you too." Percy reassures me.
"If you say so, dude." I hope she says yes. Just then Ares shouts at us the partner up with our usual partners.
~Time skip~
"Ok, 15-minute break. Then back to practising." The guys look at me and I know that I should make my move.
I head towards Adri, "Hey Adri, could I talk to you for a minute?" She looked at the girls, seeming to be asking for advice.
Though before she could answer, Annabeth pushed her forward and said "Yeah, she'll love too!"
She nodded and led me to one of the bleaches. "So, what do you want to talk about?" Well, I might as well.
"I was wondering if you want to be my date to the ceremony because I kind of like you so..." I'm rambling I thought.
"I'll love too!" She replied.
"You wouldn't mind if I tell the others right?" I shook my head as she ran for the girls, they squealed. I walked back to the guys and they grinned.
"From the girls' reaction, I say you did it?" Percy asked.
"Yep," I replied. Leo whooped.
"3 more to go and it's onto phase 2 guys. This is so going to work!" Jason said.
"If they like the last part that is," Castor said.
And with that we continued with practice.
