PARTY IN CAMP HALF-BLOOD
"Whoooohooh!" Annabeth screamed with so much enthusiasm. I just shrugged and smiled at her. Chiron has allowed us to throw a party in Camp Half-Blood with the balloons, disco balls, delicious food, dancing and all. Even getting a gate to the party was not prohibited. A girl like her should be happy.
"So you're going?" I asked my best friend as if it was the last thing she'll attend to. Annabeth is the daughter of Athena, the Goddess of Wisdom. Why would she be very interested in parties? By the way, what was that? BEST FRIEND? I treat Annabeth differently for a best friend, differently compared to my best friend Grover, the satyr. A satyr is half goat and half human. Yah, in the world of a demigod there are a lot of half creatures and half humans. Get over it.
"Why wouldn't I be?" Her gray eyes were shining with delight. "Percy, us, demigods rarely get to have fun. It's a big opportunity!" She squealed as she squeezed my hand in excitement. I have never seen her in this kind of excitement since the time she has to lead a quest for the first time.
Annabeth's right, I have thought. Being a demigod means you can't have long night parties, get a quiet stroll at the beach, a fun hang out in the arcade and such stuff. We practically train our whole lives in order to survive. A little fun would be great.
"You're right."I said at her.
By the camp fire, I and Annabeth arrived to see a group of discussing campers. As we came closer to investigate, I noticed it was the head counselors.
"Good for you to come, Prissy" Clarisse, head Counselor of the Ares Cabin, sneered at me. Like her father, Ares, she sure does love to pick a fight. She is big and buff even a wrestler would be afraid of her. I just sighed; I have no intentions of fighting.
"What's this all about?" Annabeth interrupted.
"The party..duh!" Silena, head Counselor of the Aphrodite Cabin, smiled. She is one of the nicer Aphrodite girls and the best equestrian in camp. "Each Cabin will hold responsibility of a certain task as to preparing the Party of the year!"
"Party of the century." Michael Yew, head Counselor of the Apollo Cabin, corrected.
"Well, acknowledging the abilities of our respective God-parent, it is obvious which Cabin takes which particular task." Annabeth gave an immediate solution.
"But first, what will be the theme of the party?" Katie asked. She is the head Counselor of the Demeter Cabin.
"Whatever normal teenagers do on parties then?" Travis elbowed Katie but received a sneer from her. She always hated him since he placed that Easter bunny chocolate on their Cabin's roof.
"Party 'til morning!" Percy suggested and a laugh followed by the Stoll brothers, Michael and Silena while the others gave a smile of approval.
"I think of a crazy party!" Connor said as he was elbowing his brother, Travis. They are the Stoll brothers, sons of Hermes. I find it rather funny that their last name is Stoll. AHAHAH. Oh Gods.
"Why don't we plan for the party in a room, mkay?" Katie offered and everybody agreed.
We all went to the ping pong area. Why were all the meetings held here? I started to wonder but I left all aside.
"Okay, how about a party with a live band?" Silena raised her eyebrows, assuring us it was a great idea. Me, Annabeth, the Stoll brothers, Michael and Silena's boyfriend, Charles Beckendorf who is the head of Hephaestus Cabin, nodded their heads in agreement. That Beckendorf guy is rumored that he can build anything and to my experience with him, it is all true.
"With all the dancing and music!" Silena added with glee.
"We can even have the Apollo Cabin perform as a band." Pullox, head Counselor of Dionysus Cabin, winked in approval. Being a son of Dionysus makes him a better strategist when it comes to planning a party.
"Correct!" Michael said. "We do not only know hymns and old songs, we rock!"
"Then my Cabin will take care of the decorations." Silena added. "A crazy party rock!"
"Well, that sounds like the song 'Party Rock Anthem'." Travis said and made some of them laugh. Clarisse just sneered at him while I face-slapped himself. Stupid Travis, he's so annoying.
"We'll take care of the food and the Hermes Cabin will help." Katie interrupted and smirked at Travis. Travis in returned just gave her a smile which made her cheeks turn a little pink. All of us were staring at Katie's changing face. We can't help it. Her face was noticeable like a tomato.
"Whoah, Katie's pink!" Connor laughed his ass out. "No! RED!"
"Stop it! No, I'm not!" Katie defended herself and received a smirk from everyone, except for Travis who now pursing his lips and looked away. "CUT IT!" Katie ordered. Everyone shut up. A daughter of Demeter could kill us all by just being annoyed. I wonder how Hades survived Demeter's nagging?
So in the end of the discussion, Poseidon Cabin, comprising me and Tyson, with the help of Nico takes care of the Drinks. Demeter and the Hermes Cabins are in charge of the Food but they are hoping that the Hermes Cabin won't steal. Ares and the Aphrodite Cabin will take care of the decorations. The Hephaestus Cabin will make the greatest dance floor, stage and the needed equipment for the party. The Athena Cabin takes the most exhausting job and that is managing the tasks-slash-party with the help of the Dionysus Cabin. Apparently, the Dionysus has a separate task of making the invitations, updates and publicity since they are demigods and, god, mythical beings, minor gods to be invited out of the camp.
"Invite the Hunters of Artemis." Annabeth said to Pullox. He only gave a smile as a response and left.
"Nico will like this." I smiled slyly. Nico has a crush on Thalia and we're making this chance to let them two talk. We are not planning to make Thalia break her oath. A talk won't kill them. Oh ARTEMIS please spare us.
"Thalia will kill you, Seaweed Brain!" Annabeth said with no worry at all. Her smile was making my stomach being attacked by butterflies. What a weird, addicting feeling, I thought.
"Okay, this meeting is done." I said and the others flee to do their respective duties.
"Hey, we need some chores to do." Annabeth nudged at me.
"Gods, I forgot. I'm tired of doing those office file things. Good thing you're here" I grunted. Not only my Dyslexia makes reading awful but my ADHD won't make me last long in an office or library. I was even impressed at Annabeth for reading tons of architecture books and not getting tired and annoyed by them. "You'll help me right?" I hoped.
"Sure, Seaweed Brain as long as you help me." Annabeth giggled. I noticed her cheeks were turning a little pink or was it just me?
"Great. Deal."
They were checking on the Cabins before going to Chiron's office. Every Cabin got the scores they deserved. Aphrodite, Demeter and Athena Cabins got an unsurprising 5. The Ares got a 3 because they forgot to clean up a crater that a camper from the Apollo Cabin accidentally caused. His arrow got to activate the bomb that was placed at the fences of the Ares Cabin.
The Hermes Cabin got a 2 again because the Demeter girls, lead by Katie, grew some veins in their porch, making it a jungle. The Hephaestus got a 4. They built a robot to take care of their trash but since it looks to dark, we didn't take the time to check longer.
After checking the Cabins, we reached Chiron's office to segregate the files and letters from different senders. The letters were not only from the Gods but from nature spirits, demigods, high rank officials, people or living things in royalty and even satyrs.
"Wow. So many words..." I said as if I were in a trance. The words were flying in the paper making me dizzy. I scream and threw them over me making them fly everywhere. Annabeth took a couple of the files and read some.
"Can't handle them, Seaweed Brain?" She laughed at me. "It'll be harder to do this if you just throw the paper anywhere."
"Why are you laughing, Wise Girl?" I was trying to tease her but it came out like I was teasing myself. I know I'm stupid for making such a good-for-nothing insult name for Annabeth. Well, I'm sorry for being a Seaweed Brain, okay? Annabeth laughed harder which was pretty to hear. She placed the files she was holding inside a box. I had never heard Annabeth laughed this hard before.
"Come on, Wise Girl. Stop laughing!" I whined.
She is not helping me now because she was practically rolling on the floor. I knelt beside her grabbed her shoulders. Next thing I knew I was laughing. It lasted for a few seconds because Annabeth looked at me while laying on the floor. It was more of a gaze than a stare. Her gray eyes where shining and I thought mine too. She didn't say anything and there I noticed I as directly above her.
Annabeth got up so fast that her face was an inch away from mine. I completely stopped laughing because I can feel that I was heating up. Great, I was blushing so badly. I didn't even notice I was staring at Annabeth's lips and then her eyes, then her lips!
Suddenly I have this anticipation of…of moving my face closer to her. I was sweating now. WAIT! What am I thinking? I basically closed my eyes and my body involuntarily moved a little closer but she moved back.
"We should finish this." Annabeth said nervously. I went back to reality and picked up the papers I threw.
CURSE THIS! I was this close! I continued picking the rest of the papers. WHAT! Why am I disappointed of not being able to kissing her? Oh, Percy. Snap out of it.
I shook my head like it was about to fall of. Then, I pretend to read some of the papers while watching Annabeth. She was gathering the rest of the papers putting them together in clips. Her blonde hair was on her face so she placed them behind her ear. Annabeth is so pretty. She faced me and the blush on my face became worse.
Am I in love with Annabeth? I think..I do think of her differently than just a best friend.
Hope you guys enjoyed that! Please review and ETC. I DO NOT OWN PJ&O, Party Rock Anthem and ETC.
