When the sun started to set Connor grabbed my hand and led me to the beach. I turned around and saw Luke, Cleo, and Jasper giggling. Some other campers gave confused looks.

At the beach we were alone, sitting in the sand. "Uh Gracie."

"Yeah?"

"Will you be coming back next summer?" I looked at him and saw hope in his eyes. The next thing I did surprised even me. That's right I finally got the courage to kiss the dam boy. When I pulled away his face was bright red.

"Does that answer your question?"

"Yeah, I think so." He smiled wider than I had ever seen him. We kissed again this time just enjoying the moment to ourselves. I still had a few more weeks at Camp Half-Blood, but I didn't even want to think about leaving and going back to New Rome. I knew there would always be a place for me at this Camp, but my home is California. Soon enough it would be time to return but for now, I would strictly think Greek.

The End.
