        Andy widened his eyes, Maggy knew, she figured it out by herself.  "Bingo" Zoe's eyes where practically closed, Andy lifted her chin up again.  She opened her eyes slowly, "You're very handsome."

        He smiled at her, "Thanks it's genetics"

        Matt took Zoe's first aide kit from Maggy and handed it to him, "Is she insane?" 

       "Dude you might wanna sit back down for this"

        "No, no it all makes sense," Maggy kneeled down

        "Maggy's right, can you grab my sword," Zoe pointed at it, "and Matt can I have the knife you stole back?"

       His jaw dropped, "How did you know about that?"

        She smiled, "Guessed,"

      Andy sighed, "Guys calm down," he turned to Zoe, "It's more than you overdoing it, what happened?"

        "I'm fine" 

      "Sorry but she's not fine," Maggy piped in and pulled up her pants leg.  Andy's heart sank, blood spotted on a bandage covering her leg, he knew it was from the lion.  "She stitched it up herself"

     Zoe grabbed at Andy's arm, he scooted closer to her.  "What?" he mumbled, she didn't say anything as she fell into his lap.  "Oh," he took a sharp breath, "Guys do you wanna uh break out of school?"

     "Okay," Matt stood, "That I can do, how though?"

    "We need to stop at your house first and tell your mom or dad"

     "No" Maggy blurted out, "No"

     "We can go to my house" Matt offered,

     "Okay good," Andy glanced down at Zoe then back up at them, "This would be much easier if she was awake."

    "I'm awake" she mumbled,

      "Gods Zoe, can you sit back up and try to drink some nectar?" she nodded and he handed her the bottle.

     "Wait," Matt said, "That really ins't vodka?"

    Zoe laughed, "How many times did I tell you it wasn't?"

     "Like thirty"

    "Exactly" she took a sip then put it down.  Andy looked between Matt and Zoe, there was zero romantic chemistry.  He knew, he could feel it so why did that bother him?  I wonder if she would be jealous of my girlfriend?  He forced the thought out of his brain in an attempt to focus.

     "So camp time?" he looked at Zoe

      "Yep, pack your bags guys" 

      "Camp?," Maggy looked back and forth between them

      "Yes camp, Camp Half-Blood"

       "Okay then do we need to pack?"

       "No"

       Matt looked around, "We're just gonna ignore this?"

      Andy smiled, Matt reminded him or himself when he found out what he was.  "Zoe," she looked towards him, "When are you going to be ready to leave?"

     She took a deep breath, "Matt where do you live?"

     "Uh Manhattan" 

     "Dude," she laughed, "Never mind we're gonna take a taxi, you'll like it."

      He tilted his head, "A fun taxi?"

     "I'm just as lost as you" Andy mumbled to him

     "Are we sure she's not crazy?"
