That afternoon she heard the landing. She had known beforehand that Annabeth had gone out to find someone but she hadn't expected her to be back so soon. Annabeth usually dragged things out. Drew thought she would have probably been friends with Annabeth, if she wasn't supposed to be a stereotypical daughter of Aphrodite.

When she felt a sufficient amount of time had passed for them to be fashionably late, she lead her siblings to the lake just as the group of new people dragged themselves out. She examined them closely and hoped it didn't seem like she was checking them out, and then she decided that she shouldn't care.

Drew flipped a curled strand of hair out of her face, she hated curling it but that was fasion. She mentally cursed her jewelry when she found that her hair was catching of her earring and decided that she had probably pulled that whole hair flip off well enough.

She glanced at the elfish boy and decided that he was probably the kind of person who would make a joke of everything. She decided he was the kind of person who would have teased Butch about his rainbow tattoo. Drew wrinkled her nose, she hated people who tried so hard to be funny. Especially when they even used others so lightly.

She looked at the blond boy and thought he was probably smarter and less joking and teasing than his elven comrade. He seemed like he would be a genuinely good person. As the person who she was supposed to be she would probably try to get him. He seemed pretty cute, she guessed, for a daughter of Aphrodite she was really shit at being attracted to anyone.

Then she glanced at the third one. Even she could see that this girl was pretty. She expected that she would probably be a sister of hers once she was claimed. From the way she was dressed she decided she should, despite their relation, hate her. That would suck, she seemed like a cool sister. The one who you would go on hikes with and fist bump on the top of mountains. But she sneared like she was supposed to and her heart hurt when she saw the look she was given. There goes another cool sister.

She said what she thought she should and what she felt towards the curly haired kid, "I hope they're worth the trouble."

Both boys replied and Drew sneared and rolled her eyes at their remarks. At least they had come willingly, she thought. She had been dragged along with her things against her will. They had no idea how lucky they were.

Annabeth said something about all demigods being worth saving and she tried to ignore how stupid Annabeth was being because there are some Demigods that aren't worth saving like that Luke guy she had heard of. Well maybe he had been an important part of something but there were some that weren't worth it.

The Piper girl said something and she responded on cue like she should, "And nobody wants you, hon. Does your hair always look like a dead badger?"

She wrinkled her nose. Ew, she thought to herself. That wasn't good, she could have thought of something better. That was an awful comeback.

The girl stepped up to her, damn she hoped she punched her. A good fight would be great right now. She was having a bad day anyway, fighting this stupid girl would probably make it better-ish. She was really tired. She wouldn't be acting like such a bitch if she wasn't this tired.

Drew zoned out for a second, she only got ADD when she was super tired and when she was little she had to be medicated but right now she was super tired. When she heard Chiron's name mentioned she came back down to earth. She had "sorted out" the incident of the first day but she still wasn't sure about him. Annabeth asked her to to take the blond, his name was Jason, to Chiron.

"Absolutely." She flipped her hair again and slipped her arm through his (just because that seemed like the right thing to do at the time), "This way sweetie. I'll introduce you to our director. He's…" she stopped a moment and tried to think of a word that wasn't profane or hateful, "an interesting guy."

She smiled back at the Piper girl as a way to see her reaction. Maybe this was her boyfriend. If they were going to be enemies, something that Piper had already seemed to have decided, this was exactly what she should do.

When they got to the camp and smiled and said as cheerfully as she could even though she wanted to scream more profanity at the building, "Here we are."

The rest of the conversation was obviously awkward for Jason but she didn't mind. She had become accustomed to making people uncomfortable, she didn't mind it too much. She just wanted to talk to someone and since she couldn't really talk to anyone, making them uncomfortable was really the best alternative. When Chiron finally came out of the building she was relived.

She tried to look as happy to see Chiron as she could but it was hard, she expected that she probably looked like she had eaten something that had gone bad, "Chiron! This is Jason, he's totally awesome."

Drew tried to look as unhappy as she could after being ordered back to her cabin. She guessed that Chiron still remembered something even if it wasn't her hitting him.

She went back to the cabin and passed out almost immediately after she had set her alarm from lack of sleep.

A/N:

I wanted to use Drew's POV on the arrival of Piper, Leo and Jason. I think it went well?
