Okay. Don't get me wrong here.

Percy is fucking hot.

Yes. I'm gay. The whole Calypso thing made me iffy. But she told me it had been a spell. She had been desperate at the time.

I might have a tiny crush on Percy. Little bit.

A lot.

When they talked about him they made him sound like a god or something. But he's a normal dude. Which I find to be a good thing. A normal guy that doesn't mind having fun every once in a while. That doesn't constantly pity me because of my mom.

But after that we started to just talk. About whatever. Different things. Why Annabeth would want to break up with him, its beyond me. He told me a little bit about camp before I came. Not very peaceful. Fought a battle and war in two years, followed by the Giant War. I told him about camp when he wasnt here and then I asked about before camp. Before he came here and the smile was gone for a second but returned. Just smaller.

"It sucked." The son of Poseidon told me. "I constantly for expelled, year after year. It's not the kids liked me there. ADHD and Dyslexia ruined my grades. My mom had to marry an ass just so monsters wouldn't attack and give it away.  And he was an alcoholic, gambling, abusive ass. I still have a few scars from coming home late when we had swim meets and he forgot about it and he'd best the shit out of me. I didn't know my dad. A few times a year me and my mom went to a beach cabin place for a weekend to get away from him. That really about it. Met Grover in 6th grade and he brought me here that summer."

Okay. Now I felt bad for him.

He was an abuse victim.

At dinner it ended up being Jason and  myself not able to sit at the table. Alone.

Jason and Piper broke up a while ago. I don't know why. I didn't want to get involved in that.

He was obviously crushing on somebody. That somebody being Clarisse. Who might have a boyfriend. I have no boyfriend. She seems like she does but never talks about him.

"Goes Sparky have a little crush?" I interuppted his day dream as he store at her.

His face turned beat red.

"How did you know?" He asked.

"You've been  staring at her for five minutes." I answered. "At least I'm not that obvious."

"Do you like somebody."

"You don't know that." Was my instant reaction. Which kind of accidentally gave away that I do.

"You do!" Jason said. "Oh my gods, who!?"

Talk about embarrassment.

After wards we went to his cabin. So the camp wouldn't hear.

"Now who the hell do you like?" Jason is a girl when it comes to people and liking other people.

"First of all." I said and it was kind of hard to admit. I won't lie. The thought has been in the back of my head for about 3 years. Ever since I was 13 and had a crush on a guy that was straight as straight gets. "I'm... Gay."

Didn't even phase him. He could've fucking cared less if I was actually a girl, I'm pretty sure.

"Okay." He said. "Now who the fuck is it?"

I opened my mouth and the name wouldn't come out of my mouth. After a few moments I opened my mouth back up and it just came out. No hesitstion, nothing. I just said it.

"Percy."

I don't know what I expected. Just not him to be 100% on board cool with all of it.

Probably confusion is what I expected.

Now with everything done with camp and everything. Tonight was the first nightof camp fire ever since we came here. Whatever that is.

We got there and they started early or something because there was a fire going like 20 feet up in the air, it was colored, and everyone was singing. And it was like the whole camp and it was just awesome.

It was the day before Christmas Eve. Thalia and the Hunt must've just got here, because they were there. A good majority of camp had left. Nico must still be in his cabin.

But at Campfire it was fun. It was a sing along with smores and of the like. Ton of fun. Jason had worked up the courage to ask Clarisse out on a date this Friday. Which is New Years Eve.

"Yeah." She told the son of Jupiter. "Why not. 8 sound good?"

"Sounds good." Jason agreed as she walked away to talk to someone and he hurried over, excited as shit.

"Woah, Jason." Frank said. "Calm."

It had been after Campfire. Jason, Frank, Hazel, Percy, and myself. And Jason was giving me that face to ask him out.

Later dude.

And we're figuring out a few things.

"So I'd graduate in 2015." Hazel said. "You guys 2013."

She looks at Percy.

"What year did you graduate?"

He answers.

"2012." He said. "How old do I look?"

"Like, I don't know..." Jason said.

"About 20." Frank told him. "College age. We're you held back at all?'

" No." He told them. "I'm 17. I'm only a year older than you guys. Aside Hazel and Nico. Annabeth is what... A month older than me."

A girl walked up behind Percy. His age. She looked familiar and she gave him jumper cables.

"Okay, bitch-" he said and saw her face.

"Jerk." She said. "Been a while? 3 years exact, right?"

"What the...?" Came out of all of our mouth aside Percy. Who made a B Line for Nicos cabin. Everyone falling.

"Where's my brother?" This person asked 

"What do you think I'm doing?" He asked her and started pounding on the door.

"Go away!" Nico yelled.

"That won't work." Percy told him.

"Really?" Nico asked the son of Poseidon. "You guys bugged me this morning."

"Yeah, well... I wasn't involved in that." Percy came with. "This is important."

No response and he starts pounding on the door a good five minutes before Nico finally got irritated and came to the door.

"What do you want!?" Nico snapped. But instead of Percy being there, this other girl was.

Fear plastered his face.

"What did you say?" She asked him and he started backing away. Leaving the door open as she followed him and got him on his bed.

Did nothing sexual to him.

She tickled him.

I was expecting Nico to get just livid and yell at her.

But he laughed.

He cracked a smile as she started laughing from the tickling. It was... A first honestly. I've never seem Nico smile or laugh. Percy smiled at the sight of the two of them.

"Stop it!" Nico told the girl. But like in a playful manner. He wasn't mad at all.

We walked into Hazel's room. Letting them be.

"Who is she?" Hazel asked. "And where has she been the past year?"

"She is what Nico was talking about this morning." Percy answered. "3 years ago today his sister died. That's her. He had blamed me for her death. That's why he claimed I'd know why he was upset. I saw her die. Nico nearly killed me when be found out. I didn't not want to speak of it any more than he did."

"I thought they were dating."
