Fighting For Love

..Chapter 1..

Happy Happy Birthday

TPOV

"Happy birthday Thalia!" Annabeth squealed hugging me. I just laughed and hugged her back. It was December 20th, my birthday. If I was still aging I'd be turning twenty-one today. I always came down to Camp Half-Blood to visit everybody for my birthday, Christmas, and New Years. I looked behind Annabeth to find Nico and Percy smiling mischeviously and I knew exactly what they were about to do.

"Happy happy birthday from all of us to you! We wish you happy birthday so we can party to! Hey!" they both sung dancing around and ending with their hips jutted out and them doing jazz hands. Annabeth and I cracked up, laughing as they just smiled. Once Annabeth and I calmed down she handed me a box. I ripped the light blue wrapping paper off and flipped back the top. Inside was a picture in a wooden frame. We had taken it five years ago, the day I had chosen Apollo over the Hunters. I was on Apollo's back crossing my eyes, sticking my tongue out, and making weird gestures with my hands and Apollo was looking up at me with a funny confused expression on his face. Annabeth and Percy were on our right, looking at each other with funny faces and Nico was on our left in midair doing a High School Musical jump.

"Aww thanks so much you guys! I love this so much!" I said reaching out to hug them, but was stopped when I felt a pair of arms wrap around my waist from behind. I gasped and smiled.

"Happy birthday sweetheart," I heard somebody whisper in my ear. I giggled and turned around in the person's arms to come face to face with a gleaming smiled. I smiled and wrapped my arms around Apollo's neck and burried my face in his chest. He just chuckled as I pulled back from him.

"So when am I getting my gift?" I asked polietly. He just laughed and rolled his eyes.

"Christmas morning," he winked. I just groaned and stomped my foot in frustration. I hated waiting for gifts.

Let me catch you up from when we last left off. Apollo and I had been together for five years now. The gods finally granted me immortality after five months of watching Apollo and I. Of course, Artemis was furious. She tried and tried to get me back to the Hunters but she realized it was a lost cause. Life was pretty normal now.

"Thalia!" I heard a voice from behind. I turned and found a girl with pin straight pitch black hair and piercing green eyes running towards me. When she reached me she envoloped me in a hug and smiled. "Happy birthday!" Violet said happily. Violet was still in the Hunters but stayed at camp to help with anything. We became better friends over the years and are now like sisters.

"Thanks so much," I gigggled hugging her back. She just laughed and stepped away getting a mischevious look in her eyes.

"Sooooo have you seen the new camp counsler? He's 21 and he's sooo cute! His name is Parker and he's Aphrodite's child!" Violet said happily her eyes twinkling. I looked at her and laughed and shook my head.

"No I haven't seen him. I'll have to see," I said winking. I heard a huff from behind me and I saw Apollo pout and wrap his arms around me. I just rolled my eyes and smiled. He was jealous. "Someone jealous?" I asked and he just shook his head childlishly. I just looked up at him and got lost in his eyes.

"Oh there he is!" Violet's words ripped me out of my trance. I whipped my head around to find a guy a couple inches taller than me walking across camp. He had dark brown hair with bangs that swept over his eyes unless he flipped his hair. His eyes were a piercing blue and he had an incredibley white smile. As I looked at him his head turned and he looked right at me. After a couple minutes he smiled and winked at me, turning his head in the other direction.

"Oh my gosh! He's amazing isn't he?" Violet squealed. She sounded like she was in high school again. I just laughed and turned back to Apollo. His eyebrows were scrunched together and his lip was jutted out in a pout.

"She's mine though," Apollo whispered pressing his lips to my cheek. I just blushed and nodded at Violet.

"Awww fine! You two are way to cute together!" she yelled and scurried off towards archery again. I just giggled as I burried my head in Apollo's chest.

"I love you Thalia," he murmered.

"I love you too," I smiled.

Later that day we all gathered around the dining pavilion. As soon as everybody was there they all started singing to me as Apollo and I stood on top of a table. I hugged Apollo and thanked everybody afterwards. Soon a boy with dark brown hair and piercing blue eyes walked up to me.

"I'm not sure we've met. Thalia? I'm Parker," he stuck out his hand. I smiled and shook his hand.

"It's nice to meet you. You're Aphrodite's child right?" I asked polietley and he nodded. We talked for a couple more minutes before one of his brothers called him over. He said goodbye and walked away. "He seemed nice enough," I said hugging Apollo. He just sighed and squeezed me tighter.

"I still have my doubts though. I have a bad feeling," he murmered and O just laughed and rolled my eyes.

But I couldn't help but think what he meant by that.


HOLY. ZEUS.

Here's the sequel to Shine Bright! I'm soooo freakin excited to have it up and running! I know this chapter is bad but I just had to introduce Parker. Things will get moving in the next chapter :P

So this story will be over the time limit of her birthday, Christmas, and New Years. So basically this story will be longer than Shine Bright. I'm estimating from somewhere to 10-13 chapters. Aaaaannnd you can't forget the drama! :O

So how have you guys been since I last left you? I've had an amazing month!

So I went to a Paramore concert on Saturday! It was freakin amazing! xP They sang all my favorite songs by them and I knew every single one! Hayley came over to our side of the stage (We were RIGHT next to the stage) and started talking to us! I ran down the stairs and got the best picture of her! :DDD Jermey was amazing at playing the bass (like he always is xD) and he did flips, aerials, and jumps! He jumped off the seven foot speaker at the end and I have a pic of him in the air! Josh and Taylor were amazing at the guitars and Zac threw his drum sticks out to the crowd after the concert xD

Also had kind of a bad day the other day. Basically let's just say that I have this HUGE crush on this guy (btw he looks sooo much like Justin Bieber lol xD) and my friend hung out with him and kind of developed a crush on him. We had some drama over it but now she's in love with another guy so it's all good! So now me, her, my crush, her crush, my two other guy friends, and my other friend that's a girl are going to Six Flags on Saturday and iceskating with my crush on Friday night! :DDD Lmfao xD

Sooo who bought the Red Pyramid? I did! I haven't started reading it yet though because I'm reading the Demonata series by Darren Shan and I'm on the last book! Once I finish that I'm reading The Read Pyramid! :DD

Well if you guys have any suggestions about the story just tell me!
Now I must be going to volleyball practice! Until next update!
