Falling for the child of death (Percy Jackson fanfic)

Dinner at camp half blood

Lillith was given a orange camp half blood t-shirt and some new black trousers. After her shower she went back to the little area that Amber had said she could have. She had a about half an hour until dinner was due to be served. Amber was out somewhere and she was alone in the Hermes cabin. She liked it in there. It was full of games and different pieces of tech. It was homely and nice. Lillith laid on her bed and looked up at the ceiling. Then she heard a loud crash from her right and jumped up.

"I think she spotted us dude." Said a male voice. Lillith watched as a head popped up from the side of one of the beds.

"Well if she did it was totally your fault." Said another as an identical boy popped up next to the first boy.

"Hello." Said Lillith a little shyly. The two boys stood up and came over to her. They smiled at her warmly.

"Hi I'm Travis, Hermes cabin leader."

"And I'm his brother Connor."

"We're the Stoll brothers.

"Sons of Hermes..."

"And the camps pranksters." Finish Travis. It was confusing to see then finish each others sentences like that.

"Well I'm Lillith Lamwood, unclaimed just got here."

"We know..."

"Your the one that came with that pretty girl."

"And they say you two took down a manticore."

"Well actually that was Nico and the pretty girl would be Aurora. Can I ask why you were hiding behind that bed in the first place?"

"We were gonna play a prank on you."

"But Connor gave away our position."

"Did not."

"Did too."

"Hey Lillith." Called Amber from the door. "Dinners nearly ready you coming?"

"Yeah. It was nice to met the two of you." She said to the arguing twins before she followed Amber out of the cabin.

"You met the twins huh? When there around be alert. They can be tricky and annoying but there fun guys when you get to know them." Lillith nodded and saw two people that seemed to be waiting for them. One was a girl with long soft brown hair and blue eyes. The others was a boy, he was bulky and looked like he worked out a lot. He had dirty blond hair and he was covered in grease. "This is Freya, daughter of Demeter and this is Patrick son of Hephaestus. There my friends and guys this is Lillith, the new girl in our cabin."

"It's nice to meet you." Said Freya with a smile. Patrick gave her a shy smile.

"Patricks a little shy despite his size. He doesn't really talk much. Anyway we should go..."

Lillith looked at the scene in front of her. There were thousands of kids all crowding around tables, even though some of them were completely empty.

"Amber if the table is crowded why don't they just move?" She asked.

"Oh they can't. Each cabin has their own table, you have to eat at your own. Your friend you came here with should be at the Hermes table too. She hasn't been claimed yet but she seems to have made great friends with all the Aphrodite kids."

"She isn't my friend." Lillith said but Amber didn't hear her. Patrick and Freya left to go to their own tables. Lillith spotted Percy at table 3 all by himself. He seemed to be eating blue waffles. When he saw her he gave her a little wave. She was shocked that he would do such a thing, no one ever waves at the weird girl but she returned the wave. Amber and Lillith were both handed and empty plate and cup. "Um Amber?"

"Don't worry it's normal. There magic, you think about what you want to eat and drink and they appear."

"Anything?"

"That's right."

"Is that why Percy is eating blue waffles?"

"Yeah that kid seemed to have a weird obsession with blue food." She said with a smile before talking to her siblings and ignoring Lillith. Lillith looked down at her plate. Anything she wanted? She had never been given a choice what to eat before. At the orphanage it was eat what you were given and be grateful or go hungry. When she lived with her father it was whatever was left over after he ate, which was never really much. She thought, pizza and water. Sure enough they appeared just like Amber had said. She smiled, this place was amazing. She picked up a piece and was about to eat it when Amber stopped her.

"Wow don't eat yet. We have to make an offering to the Gods."

"An offering?"

"Yeah we give a potion to our food to our godly parent."

"But I don't know how mine is?"

"Then throw it into the fire and pray that your parent claim you soon." Amber went to the large fire in the middle of the table and threw some of the steak pie she had into the fire. Then Lillith followed her. She took a piece of pizza and threw it into the fire. She closed her eyes and prayed silently.

"Mum...however you are...if I even have a Mum up there...please give me some answers soon. I'm confused and scared andI ask for some guidance from the only one I can." She opened her eyes and went back to the Hermes table, where she ate by herself and in complete silence...
